What should I write when emailing references to a potential employer?

Posted Friday, August 13, 2010 by admin


I was asked by a potential employer to send my references via email. Do I write a letter? Or do I just shoot a “Here are my references, thank you for the call”? I have never been asked to email references, I’ve always just attached them to my resume and given them at the interview. I am new to the email reference ettiquete.

How do I fairly and effectively compensate an independant salesperson?

Posted Thursday, June 10, 2010 by admin


I recently started a small web design & development that caters to a very specific blue-collar industry niche. One thing I am considering doing is bringing onboard an independant sales rep to drive sales, since like many tech gurus, I’m more comfortable with programming than I am selling. Since the salesperson would be independant, they would be compensated via comission only.

The upfront web design package will be priced at around $3,100, with an additional montly fee of about $300. The monthly fee pays both for hosting, site maintaince, and an Internet marketing and advertising campaign. These are largely cookie-cutter sites designed using highly refined templates. This ought to reduce the sales cycle a bit (and hopefully make them easier to sell?) What percentage of each sale should I offer the sales rep? So I or shouldn’t I offer him/her a percentage of the monthly fees as well? If so, how long do I continue to pay the rep a cut of that monthly fee? Thanks!

What department buys are approves the use of viral ads or interactive campaigns for consumer brands?

I am talking about interactive viral web sites for consumer brands, web games, web apps, etc. I am interested in being involved with this type of marketing campaign though I would like to stay on the corporate or client side of marketing. So, I am wondering what type of position I need to go after in order to commision this type of creative and work on such high visibility integrated marketing campaigns.
