You should have one, and be sure to make it look
professional. If you’re not artistic or
technical by nature surf over to www.templatemonster.com
and buy one from them. Template Monster’s templates are second to
none as far as I’m concerned. They look
professional and you can buy one for $20-$60. You add your own words and customize it to fit your needs or you can
hire them to do the job for you.
You can also buy what they call an “identity plan” which even includes your corporate logo if you choose to set up your own consulting practice while you‘re looking.
♦ Buy a template which matches the industry you
want to go into.
♦ If you can’t afford to hire a professional to
customize it for you, consider a barter arrangement.
♦ If you want to save money, lay out your
sections and write your text before you hire someone to complete it.
♦ Have a newsletter box.
♦ Your content needs to focus on your industry
knowledge and your ability to do a particular job or the series of jobs you
want to be hired to do.
♦ Put up any article you have authored.
♦ Put up summaries of your white papers and encourage
employers to contact you directly or at least register to receive the entire
document. This will build you a stable
of leads as well as tell you who is reading your site.
♦ Link to other sites which have content that would be of interest to your readers.
