Cynopsis: Classified Advantage
02/26/13

Good morning. It’s Tuesday, February 26, 2013, and this is your weekly issue of Cynopsis: Classified Advantage!

Considering a Switch in Careers?

It’s not exactly a buyer’s market in today’s economy, but that doesn’t mean you cannot switch careers, just make sure you’re doing it for the right reason(s).

You have to be prepared – which includes having enough money to live without any income for a year. If you cannot do that, now is not the optimum time to consider a switch.

Is extra schooling involved? If so, understand that schools are expensive and take up a lot of time, are you able to part with both and for how long?

Talk to the people who will be affected by your decision. Make sure they are on-board, otherwise the process becomes much more difficult.

Reasons to Switch Jobs

You’re job offers no possibilities in learning new skills. Some people are very happy doing the same thing everyday, others go crazy. If you’re in the latter group, talk to your superiors. If they cannot or are unwilling to help, it may be time to consider a new job.

There is nothing about your worked that is stimulating to the point of depression. We all hate work at times, but there should be a significant amount of time where work is challenging and even fun. If this never occurs, again, talk to your superiors then consider a different company or industry.

You’ve hit a green ceiling, meaning there is only so much money to be made and you’ll eventually need more. If the company has a strict pay scale and the top is insufficient for your needs, time to consider a new job.

If you have gone through a major life event, this may be the time to consider moving on to another job. However, and this is a big however, consult a medical professional before taking on this task. It could be the best medicine for you, or it could be the worst thing you could do. Seek their advice and adhere to it.

You have a very clear vision of what you want to do, you know how to do it, but you’re not. Too many people are in this situation, taking the first offer that comes along, understandably of late, but if you have a true passion for another career and can afford to pursue it, go for it.

Changing careers, even changing companies within the same industry is a major step in anybody’s life, make sure you’re prepared and good luck!

~ACTIONABLE EXPERT ADVICE~
ARMY WIVES How to Maintain Relationships from Afar
by Jessica Sitomer

While Army Wives gives us insight into the lives of the men and women who marry army personnel, we also learn how they adapt to the lives they’ve chosen. Most have routines they implement to maintain contact with oversea loved ones. Denise and Frank swap letters to be read once they’re apart. This is a message of great importance to you. It is key to stay in touch, even when you’re separated from your contacts. Whether it’s because you or your contacts are on location working, or you have relocated, or you are taking care of a family matter; whatever the reason, keeping in touch, sharing your life with your contacts is crucial to maintain your relationships in order to stay in the loop.

Client, Juliet Landau, best known for her roles as Drusilla on Buffy and Angel, Loretta in Ed Wood, and her other 40+ listed IMDB credits, is GREAT at maintaining her relationships with past cast and crew members, executive producers, writers, directors, casting directors, and industry people. How does she do it? Not only does she do the “typical work” of an actress, she is always creating her own opportunities so she has new news to share.
 
Here are the 10 rules for maintaining relationships that Juliet uses and YOU CAN TOO:
1.  Stay in touch with friends by phone.
2.  Maintain your relationships with contacts through email and the occasional call when you have a question.
3.  Be self-motivated; create your own projects so you always have something to share.
4.  Share your “press” to stay on people’s minds.
5.  Get business advice and guidance mentors and maximize. your relationships with them by following up with questions.
6.  When you have a success share it with your contacts.
7.  Always think about how you can add value to your contacts’ lives through your correspondence (for example, Juliet’s Documentary uses ground-breaking technology that is helpful to others to learn about).
8.  Give your contacts something that will make them smile or even better laugh!
9.  Pass along a valuable article, quote, or tip.
10.  Talent is essential, Juliet spends a great deal of time on her business, but she never lets her craft suffer. When it comes down to it, she is an artist in everything she does, from her acting, to her directing, to writing an email to a fan. This is important for maintaining relationships because when she gets called in from the contacts she maintains, she makes them look good when she delivers the goods!

Use the ten rules to create your own routines for maintaining your contacts

And Action!

1.  Get back in touch with 4 people each week this month
2.  Write down 3 successes you can share with them
3.  Write down 1 added value you can contribute to them

While sharing TV metaphors with you is always great fun for me, I thought seeing a real live client in action implementing what you’re learning would be really helpful. Know that you are not alone, you’re part of the Greenlight Community.

~ASK THE EXPERTS~
Questions from our Readers
Answered by
Jessica Sitomer

What is the best strategy if I want to negotiate salary? In other words, how do I successfully negotiate a better offer?

Negotiating is an art in itself. Books have been written on this subject, so instead of writing one right now, I suggest that you do some research and find a great book to read and/or a great live training to attend.

Can I make a counter job offer by email, or do I have to do it in person or by phone?

I always suggest asking the person with whom you’ve interviewed how they prefer to be contacted for follow up. The fact that you’re asking says that you know email may not be ideal. Are you avoiding going back in person/picking up the phone? Or is there another reason that you feel email would be a better choice? If it’s avoidance, email is most likely not the answer.
