Put Stephen Smith to work for you
Work? What kind of work? “What can Stephen do for me” you ask.
Well, let me share with you just a few of the things I have learned and applied during my career in business, both large and small:
Learn the Best Productivity Practices
- Your calendar is a tool, not a prison. I can show you the best practices for how to get the most out of what you put into it. This can even include designing a customized calendar page that fits your specific needs if necessary, or simply how to get the most out of your current system.
- Your workflow should be just that, a flow. I can help you identify the bottlenecks and determine how you spend your time, then we work together to discover how to best invest your time. I can teach you how to get your work done in less time so that you can a.) do more work, if you want to, or b.) do more living!
- Your workspace needs to be designed to improve how you work and what you get done, it should not be something that gets in the way of your productivity. I can show you how to organize your workspace, your files, and your supplies in a way that helps you, not hinders you.
Ask me about productivity, and tell me how we can work together on your productivity skills.
Take Advantage of Social Media with Personalized Web Consulting
- I know how to use Twitter and StumbleUpon to build communities for Social Networking. I can help you learn how to get involved with these communities that can bring more traffic to your website/blog and increase your business.
- I am an avid user of LinkdIn for professional networking and job-seeking. I can help you learn how to increase your web presence and improve your chances of being noticed.
- I have built several WordPress blogs on self-hosted platforms. I can do this for you to create your own blog or website for yourself or your business. I can handle the URL registration, hosting set-up, and theme-design through my own extensive network of graphic- and web-designers.
Through trial and error - as well as under the coaching of some of the best web-designers in the biz, I’ve found that not all blog platforms are created equal. WordPress represents a great platform for managing content, not just blogs – but websites.
Why would you use a blogging platform for your website?
- It is easy to update,
- It is easy to personalize for your business or brand,
- Keyword friendliness for Google searching,
- You generate your own fresh content.
Ask me about Social Media, and tell me a little bit about how we can work together on your Social Media presence.

Interview Skill Training
- Do you need to improve your interview skills in order to land a job? I can teach you how to put your best foot forward, what kinds of questions to expect, and how to determine if this is the job for you in the first place.
- Do you need to hire someone to fill a position? I can teach you how to ask specific, job- and performance-related questions to find the best person for the position. I can work with you to identify the skills and attitudes that best qualify a candidate for your organization, then turn this information into a performance-based interview template.
Ask me about improving your interviewing skills, and tell me a little bit about how we can work together to prepare for your next interview.
