#012 Are You a Well-Kept Secret? Yes! Yes You Are! Artwork

Sales Engineering University

NOTE: THESE FIRST EPISODES ARE JUST AUDIOS FROM MY EXISTING VIDEOS ...Sales Engineering is discussed at great length, diving into the several aspects and viewpoints. What is a Sales Engineer? Is it Sales? Engineering? Why do you need to hire one? What are you doing wrong with the ones you have now? These start out as MP3s of my popular series on the Sales Engineering University site: http://seu.atcp.us These episodes aired around the 2016 time frame. If I weren't so lazy, I'd trim the video leader off, as it has little audio appeal. If these get as many 'listens' and feedback as their video counterparts, then I will clean them up. .Until then, Fast Forward is your friend!

This lecture is loosely based on the agenda below. I just jot down the order of topics as you see, then just record. This is how I give talks, demo software, do voice-overs, etc. This style isn't for everyone.

Are you a well-kept secret?
-HR/recruiters are lazy and under-capable
-How/where would someone, or a search program, find you?
-What would they find?
--Social media search
--Google blunt search
--Reasons you would be a risk?
-Why ‘branding’ and ‘image’ are crucial
Do SEs need more than skill?
-Job keywords/resume only get you noticed-no INTEREST generated
-The soft skills - are you annoying or unpresentable?
--How to say “No” w/out saying "No"...
--How to say “You’re wrong” w/out saying "You're wrong"...
