The way to stand out is to not just tell people what you would do, but show them.
the briefcase technique is one of my favorite techniques people use it to get jobs that they might not even be qualified for on paper they use it to raise their rates as freelancers and they use it to get in touch with busy people and connect with them and often get jobs so what is it it's called the briefcase technique because it involves a little bit of theatricality which I love and the concept is when most people apply for jobs or they they try to network with someone they basically all do it the same and they all do it wrong they're like hey man I'd like a job here's my charisma yeah it's like you and 10,000 other people just did that you already lost you don't even know it same thing with networking they're like hey I really loved your article uh any chance we can talk and I can pick your brain it's like that person got 10 of those emails in the last hour so you already lost there too but imagine you did something different imagine you were applying for a job I'm going to give you that example first and you did a little research you listened to the interviews that the CEO has given in the last two months and the CEO might mention you know we have a real focus on retention right now that's a big thing for us and then you search retention and the name of the company and then you talk to somebody from LinkedIn who used to work there and you say hey would you mind spending 10 minutes on the phone I'm thinking about applying and love to know what it's like there you ask them are they focused on retention is there something that I could help with and by the time you go to apply for that job you've already spoken to multiple people at the company you've listened to the CEOs interviews you walk in whether it's through your uh cover letter or when you get the interview and you say I understand that retention is one of the core challenges in the business uh I took the liberty of speaking to a couple people used to work here and a couple people that currently do Joe and Nancy and they mentioned that uh you know I should talk to you here's a couple of things I would do in my first 30 60 and 90 days this is where the briefcase comes in now you can literally have a brief case if you have one and pull it out or you can pull it out of your backpack it doesn't matter the point is it's actually very theatrical boom you put this piece of paper down three or four pages and you say goal increase retention by 10% here are some of the projects I would do here's what another company has done here's what my objectives would be and here's how you would measure it handed to the manager Jordan what do you think that manager is going to do as they are reading this page
