Ready to Make Your Next Important Career Move?
Looking
for a Job that Fits you Better?
Bored,
Disinterested, or Uninspired by your 9-to-5?
Then maybe you're ready
to discover. . .
Fellow Career Seeker. . .
Let's face it, today we're all free agents. And for most of us, that's a mixed
blessing!! While it means that we have unlimited potential, it also means that
we each personally must take responsibility for our careers.
Long gone
are the days when we could expect an employer to provide us with a comfortable
pension after 30 years of dedicated work. Today most people will change
jobs 5 to 6 times in that 30 years. Some even more. In fact, keeping the
same job for too long has become a warning signal to potential employers!!
So, that means taking responsibility for managing your career, for packaging yourself,
and for understanding how to be competitive in the market place. In other words,
regardless of your craft or profession, from time to time you will also need to
wear the hats of a:
- Career Counselor
- Image Consultant
- Marketing
Guru
In short, you need to become a Strategic Planner when it
comes to your career!! Does all this sound like a lot of work? Well, yes, it can
be. However, there are several ways you can approach a career transition:
- You can simply look for the same kinds of opportunities or jobs
you have already been doing.
- You can pay hundreds or thousands of
dollars to a Professional Career Counselor who will measure, assess and compare
you to what's currently out there.
- You can work with a Career/Life
Coach™ who will help you discover what's really important to you
and create a strategy for getting what you want.
- You can turn your
employment history over to a résumé writer and hope that
she understands what you really want to do.
- You can do a lot of self-study
and hope you hit the high points.
- You can simply wait around
and hope that the right people notice you.
Or, you can do some
variation of the best of these...And this is where we come in.
“I LOVE YOUR E-BOOK!! Leave it to you two to go over the top!!!! In
my mind, you've blown the lid off of the typical E-book!!" ~~Lauren Lee
"I think the most important thing I realized after reading these Strategies,
is that I HAVE THE POWER to make all aspects of my life whatever I want them to
be. I can't really say enough good things about the work you're doing!” ~~Jan
O'Neill "[10 Key Strategies] is a 'LOOK INSIDE YOURSELF AND YOU WILL
FIND THE ANSWERS' book...that helped me to truly understand that I needed to conquer
the obstacles and roadblocks that have been holding me back all these years."

from here?', these are the keys that will unlock all your best answers! "

We're
Gabrielle Parkinson and Katie Darden. For more than 15 years, we've been helping
people successfully move through all kinds of transition and change. People who
were suddenly dumped out of a job. People who were bored with the "same old same
old". People who knew there was more available than what they were getting at
the moment. People who wanted to have exactly what made them happy.
We've
helped people get better jobs, start new businesses, create strategic visions,
learn to take larger and larger steps towards what they really wanted. As Professional
Coaches, we've developed a comprehensive Career/Life Planning® process to
assist people who are really serious about having a life that fully satisfies
them. And along the way, we've developed several programs that guide people to
successfully transition into careers that are more fulfilling. That's how our
"10 Key Strategies" got started.
We wanted an easy-to-use
process for people who are looking for that next step. So, Gabrielle developed
a Top 10 List of Career Transition strategies that we
gave away to our clients and workshop participants. Then Katie wrote a series
of articles for our newsletters, highighting and further explaining each of
the strategies.
Next we added some self-reflective exercises from our
seminars and coaching programs. These exercises will help you answer key questions
about your achievements, interests and abilities. To discover what is really important
to you in your career. And, to focus on where you want to go rather than simply
where you've already been.
But we didn't stop there. For each strategy
we've created links to other resources, including a 3-7 minute RealAudio clip
that gives you an overview focusing specifically on how to develop and integrate
that strategy into your plan. That's nearly an hour of audio support!!
And we tied it all together with a mini Action Plan to help you focus
on the parts that are most important to you.
This is NOT the full blown Career/Life
Plan®; that our coaching clients pay us $2495 for. And it's not
the 2 day workshop that costs you $395. It's not even a short term
coaching program that would run you between $300 and $900.
However,
- it IS an easy place to start using the
same concepts we use in our coaching and training programs;
- it IS
an introduction to the Key Strategies which will help you move into a job or career
that better meets your personal desires and goals;
- and it IS a
simple way to focus your attention and energy on what you really want.
And, because we're results-oriented, it was important
for us to create something that would be immediately useful for you, yet could
be used over and over again whenever your circumstances or career goals changed
. . . and if there's anything we've learned over the past 18 years, we've definitely
learned how quickly circumstances can change!! In nearly everything we do,
our philosophy is the same - regardless of whether you are a Career/Life Planning®
client or a one-time coaching client...
We Believe You Already
Have Your Own Best Answers Within
. . .and our role is to help you find
those answers so you can rediscover what really makes you happy. Then you
are empowered to discover how to share that with others in a way that satisfies
you as well as supports your goals and dreams. "10 Key Strategies" will help
you rediscover your answers. And help you design a roadmap for achieving exactly
what you want. But don't just take our word for it, listen to what our customers
and clients have to say...

LOVE YOUR E-BOOK!! I am SO impressed with the layout and content! The way you
included notes applicable to each section and then bring them all together at
the end is SO awesome. And the related links in each section, again spectacular!!
Made me want to follow the links to your website (which I did).
Wow! Leave
it to you two to go over the top!!!! In my mind, you've blown the lid off of the
typical E-book!! The topics you cover are great and the content awesome –
applicable, clear, thorough and beautifully presented! Thought you'd like
to know – ~~ Lauren Lee

would like to personally thank you for your 10 Keys e-book. I found it absolutely
enlightening and helpful. It has allowed me to step back, open my eyes and take
a panoramic view of my life as it is now and how I really want it to be in the
near future!! It was very informative and helped me to truly understand that
I needed to conquer the obstacles and roadblocks that have been holding me back
all these years. It is a 'LOOK INSIDE YOURSELF AND YOU WILL FIND THE ANSWERS'
book, not a 'THIS IS WHAT YOU MUST DO or HAVE TO DO' book. The Career Changing
Strategies are very easy to understand because they are spelled out for you loud
and clear. The worksheets on the side were extremely helpful and a brilliant idea.
Thank you once again for all of your insight!! Sincerely,
~~Heather

any one of these bonuses is worth MORE than the cost of our eBook Program. So
why are we offering this eBook and these special bonuses for such a low price?
Frankly, we want you to get to know us, our philosophies, our approach to helping
you create what works for you. We have several more products and ideas in the
works. We believe it's important to create relationships. By establishing a relationship
with you where you receive value for your dollars, you are more likely to share
those dollars with us. That way, we can continue to create products that help
you achieve even more satisfaction and success. And, everyone gets to win!!
I finally have had time to think about the excellent resource material
you've produced. And it's most appropriate for me right now. I like your formatting
- the 'work sheet' on the side of the page encourages the reader to actually do
the exercises. Most particularly, Strategies 5, 6 and 7 are so relevant to
my life situation right now. Not only are the ideas thought-provoking as related
to career options, but they apply to my personal life, too. I think the most
important thing I realized after reading these Strategies, is that I HAVE THE
POWER to make all aspects of my life whatever I want them to be. Deciding
just what one wants is difficult, but not deciding is even harder. The empowerment
you offer is incredible and inspiring. Thanks!! I can't really say enough
good things about the work you're doing! ~~Jan O'Neill
