1. Get laid off from your current employer.
2. Email everyone you know within your industry.  Let them know that you’re on the market and ask that if they see any opportunities, to pass them along.
3. Don’t wait for answers; reach out to everyone and look at other jobs in the meantime.
4. Don’t change your routine too much to stay upbeat.
5. One of those connections pays off in the form of a new job.
6. Start new job.

So, yeah.  I make it sound easy.  To be honest, it kind of was.  So, this serves as a semi-official announcement via my blog here that I’m now an Affiliate Manager for Paulson Management Group, one of the most recognized and respectable outsourced program management firms in the Affiliate Marketing industry.  I’m excited to join Heather Paulson and the team and keep on truckin’ doing what I do best!

I’m also going to step up onto a soap box for a moment and remind everyone how important it is to network within your industry!  If I hadn’t made a fairly decent name for myself within the affiliate world, I’d probably still be waiting for a call back from some entry level marketing job here in the Bay Area.  It helps to introduce yourself to people.  Don’t forget that at the next industry event you attend; it doesn’t matter what your industry is, it’s important to network.  Okay, end soap box.
