The Breakfast Club NJ Presents: "Selling
Yourself" by Joey Himelfarb
Saturday November 8, 2014 at 8:00am ET
Please share with other groups you may be in.
The Presentation: "Selling Yourself"
Aristotle believed an important skill any
person could have was the ability to influence.
Have you ever had to convince your
colleagues, department heads, or company executives to try a different tactic
in acquiring new business? Ever tried to get your customers to buy your stuff?
Ever tried to get your kids to behave a certain way? Ever go on a
job interview?
Join us for a thought provoking, highly
interactive, and entertaining program that will demystify your views of selling
and help you to better sell yourself. With a blank white board or flip chart, 2
different colored markers, and an audience thirsting for knowledge, you will:
*
Discover how you can apply selling theories and techniques to help you land
whatever job you desire. (Hint: no rocket science involved, but Rocket
Scientists can surely benefit.)
*
Hear new ideas about old sales strategies that focus your attention on getting
hiring managers to consider you for the job you want. (Make them wonder how
they ever got along without you.)
*
Learn how to put a different spin on the job search activities you currently
perform...so you can distinguish yourself from your competition...so you can
bolster your pipeline...so you can improve your chances of getting employed.
(Make the people you talk to feel glad they met you.)
About the speaker:
Joey Himelfarb (all his
friends call him Joey) has been selling for over 20 years. Whether it's
multi-million dollar computing and telecommunications systems to Fortune 100
companies around the world, or consumer products in a homeowner's backyard or
driveway, or even their own home, Joe enjoys helping his clients ge from where
they are to where they want to be.
Joe's passion is being on stage and encouraging people to maintain
positive mental attitudes. His contention is that we sell everyday and being
negative serves no function. To that end, and on a regular basis, Joey
facilitates seminars to unemployed individuals as well as small business
owners.
Most people who have participated in these seminars have learned new
tactics for selling themselves and maintaining positive mental attitudes in
their professional and personal lives. And some attendees have actually seen
and heard a unique similarity in Joey's presentation style with a famous
comedian who has had success hosting several Oscar Award Show Ceremonies.
Networking
begins at 7:30 am, meeting starts promptly at 8:00 am.
There
is a $10 fee at the door to cover the cost of the room.
Be
sure to tell your friends and bring them along. Be a part of our growing
network of Job Seekers, Hiring Managers, Recruiters, Career Coaches, and people
who want to be able to help themselves and each other.
