How Recruiters Can Increase Klout and Kred Scores

How Recruiters Can Increase Klout and Kred Scores As a recruiter, have you ever considered what your online influence is? What do clients and candidates think of your online presence? This very hot topic was address at the most recent Social Media Meetup entitled “How to boost your social media influence” with Andrew Grill, CEO of Kred the open standard for measurable influence, based in London. Some background information The meetup started with a brief introduction about Andrew, his Australian background, his presence on the web (he’s been working online and blogging since 1994) and Kred, the company he works for as a CEO. Andrew then gave the audience some hands-on practice on Kred, influence and how it works in real life he set up a special Kred leaderboard for the event (visible at http://smlondon.kred.com/) and anyone tweeting using the Social Media London hashtag (#smlondon) with a mention in the tweet will be given ‘outreach points’ and the person (or people) mentioned will be given   ‘influence points’. To start the event, Andrew touched on the main topic of the meetup: Influence. What is influence? As a social media keynote speaker, Andrew has spoken to a multitude of events and meetups, and the constant question he often gets is “what do you do with influence once you’ve found it?”. The challenge is not increasing your influence score â€" whether it’s Klout, Kred, PeerIndex or any other influence measurement facility. Andrew then shared a few experiences of the outcomes of using his social media influence â€" he was able to change his relationship with brands because brands knew who he was, he was able to get goodies and benefits from brands who wanted him to advertise their products and becoming their ‘advocate’. So, how can you find the right people who can talk about your brand? Nowadays brands are gradually moving away from paying ‘evangelists’ money to talk about them, while they prefer to look for the unsigned bloggers instead. One way they do so is by finding people with a high social media influence score. However, such scores are not always reliable. In fact, more often than not, they’re just numbers. Don’t take your score number at face value â€" it might be high in the wrong area. For an influence score to have a meaning, it needs to provide a context, a description of how the score works and how it’s calculated. just the fact that someone has a high score does not mean that they’re the right person for your brand â€" their high score might be in health, hospitality, technology or dog-walking, which might not necessarily be your area of interest. Kred takes a different approach â€" it provides context to such scores. Since November 2008 to right now, Kred has acquired 100 billion tweets in its database and analyses those tweets and each interaction (going back to a maximum of 1,000 days) to score you in your main areas, to connect you with people with a similar or higher score. Anyone with a public Twitter profile can check their Kred score and see what tweets are increasing (or lowering) your score. This helps users gain insight on how they’re gaining influence. I know my influence score, now what do I do? Once you know what you’re influential in and once you know what you’re doing to make yourself influential, keep doing it. Here are a few tips to help you improve your social media influence: Find what you’re influential in,  probably what you are recruiting for. Give people recommendations from clients and senior candidates. Focus on your main area(s) of interest. Offer something of value to your target audience. Don’t underestimate the power of social media. Keep being authentic by mixing in human updates. Be interesting, have an opinion, dont just repeat what others say. My Views This was definitely a timely meetup for me. I’ve used Klout for quite some time and I’ve always wondered what my score meant. Klout thinks Im influential in technology and social media, and Im glad that its showing that. However, it also thinks that Im influential in Starbucks I might enjoy the odd Starbucks coffee every now and then but that doesn’t really make influential in that area. So, I signed up for Kred after the meetup and used it for a while. I’ve used it for a few days and I have to say â€" I quite like it. I personally don’t find it as intuitive as Klout, but it has definitely given me more insight on what I’m influential about and who else is influential in my areas of interest, or ‘communities’. If you haven’t used it yet, it’s definitely worth trying: www.kred.com. You can signup for free, all you need is a public Twitter account.

Take Your Time Choosing a Video Company For Your Wedding -

Take Your Time Choosing a Video Company For Your Wedding - A wedding day goes so fast. You would like to have a video to recall all those special moments the expression of your groom’s face when you walk down to aisle or the touching moment when your mother helps you with that beautiful dress. If you ask any married couple, they will say that it went by in a flash. A photographer is an essential wedding day keepsake but a professional wedding videographer also helps you to capture your special day. You can’t put a price tag on the moments of your wedding vows and the speeches of your closest ones. A video helps you to cherish those priceless moments. That’s why a video company for your wedding is a must. In this article, we will help you with these tips you should follow while you contact video editing sites or a video production company. Hire the company whose style matches yours Videographers apply different methods to their craft. A documentary-style video displays the event chronologically without various special effects, while a cinematic film is more likely to be dramatic, using fascinating angles for a movie feel (these are only two options of many videography methods). Don’t select a cinematographer with one style and send them videos from another videographer with a completely different style. You should only go for the one you like. Finding a videographer is as serious as finding a photographer Choosing a wedding video company is as serious as choosing a photography company. Wedding videography is a technical art, so it’s quite important to hire the right company because producing a flawless wedding video takes a very high amount of experience and skills. Video is the best way to relive your moments forever and to share with your future children and grandchildren. Seek out reviews You should do your research, even after you feel like you’ve found the perfect fit. Ask questions like: Have your photographer worked with this company before? Have any of your friends hired them before? Does your event planner have experience working with them? These people will provide you the first-hand information about the wedding video company before you make your decision. Meet them in person before you make your decision It’s an excellent idea to conduct a consultation in person. It gives you a sense about the company you’re going to sign up and also the personality of the person. Build a connection with him so that things may never feel awkward on your big day because this person is going to be around you for most of the day. Notice how they are dressed and how they groom themselves, make sure that they are talented and they will make the right way at your wedding. View their portfolio Many companies post only a few videos of the best work on their website. But it’s necessary for you to check their entire portfolio before you sign on the dotted line. Request access to their YouTube account and see more of their work. If they have videos from your own wedding venue, watch them. Also, there are some companies who only post highlight videos, you have to request them to watch the longer full video if they offer it. Discuss your goals If you want a 3 to 5-minute summary video, discuss with them. If you want a full edited video of the entire day, discuss with them again. Just talk to them about your goals and all. The more you know, the better. You should have an idea of what you’re looking for so that your videographer can assess whether they can be able to meet all your needs or not. Get the most out of contract Your contract should include every single thing about the services. The coverage time, the number of shooters you’ll have, an itemized list of the finished products such as trailers, highlight reels, digital media files. Also, nitty-gritty logistical details such as time and location, cancellation strategies, and of course, the fee. Don’t just assume you’re going to get it if it’s not outlined in the contract. Any extras like the same day edit or an engagement video session have to be in there. If they’re not in there, ask about it. Don’t micromanage You’re choosing someone due to their talent and experience, not just for their equipment. You have to trust your decision. You shouldn’t feel like you have to direct them or keep your eye on them on your wedding day. You should have complete confidence in them once you’ve done your research and fully vetted your wedding video company. Because micro-managing usually only alters the outcome for the worse. Take a pen and note down this checklist. It will help you to interview a couple of companies for your wedding. Hopefully, you’ll be able to choose someone who you feel is the right one to do your job, once you ask the questions. One thing you should always keep in mind that, don’t micromanage them on your wedding day. It pulls them away from the style that you feel in love with. Stand up and get started with it.

Priceless Leadership An Interview with Kevin Allen - Personal Branding Blog - Stand Out In Your Career

Priceless Leadership An Interview with Kevin Allen - Personal Branding Blog - Stand Out In Your Career Recently, I had the chance to connect with Kevin Allen, the pitchman behind MasterCards now iconic Priceless campaign and author of the  Wall Street Journal  best-seller,  The Hidden Agenda. In Allens newest book,  The Case of the Missing Cutlery, he discusses his journey to becoming a leader. Specifically, he recalls his time as a young manager at an airline catering facility. With silverware disappearing at a rapid clip, he was called upon to solve the case, and in doing so, discovered how to become a leader who inspires. We discussed his story, the concept of leadership, and the obstacles he faced while pitching the Priceless campaign to MasterCard.   Do you believe that leadership is something that can be learned or acquired? When I was coming up in the business, there seemed to be a pre-determined criteria for what it meant to be a leader, if you ate bowls of ten-penny nails for breakfast, talked tough, acted tougher and strutted around telling people what to do, it seemed a sure bet you would have been defined as a “natural born leader.” For me, none of those things either resonated or were anything remotely part of my makeup â€" and as a young fellow I struggled with the perception that those who didn’t have those characteristics were destined not to lead. We no longer live in a hierarchical world, where the power rests with the precious few, where customers and people within organizations act obediently at the behest of an omnipotent few. Twenty-first century organizations are thriving communities of people in and outside the organization who are bound together by a common value system embodied in leadership that is born of empathy, the ability to listen, generosity of spirit and an innate sense of what’s in the hearts of the people that you are leading â€" this is “buoyancy” the act that you will float because the people in the organization believe you should. That you have understood the hearts of your people and have been able to galvanize for them their participation in an incredible future. This being the case, I would assert that leadership isn’t something that is possessed by a precious few. We all possess the human ability to be empathetic and our true genuine selves and can be taught to harness these basic human abilities to inspire and spur people toward the achievement they seek. What were some unexpected leadership lessons you learned throughout your journey? Probably the biggest unexpected lesson was that the tenets of leadership were not found in a fancy management book, but found in the simple yet profound truths of human empathy, generosity of spirit, as well as the ability to give confidence and inspiration to others. Business is not about numbers, it’s a human game. What were some important inflection points that led you to where you are today? There were many inflection points throughout my 30 year career, many of these if not all, were the result of some profound change. What I’ve learned is these inflection points are not moments of worry or fear, and while they are chaotic, these moments of change produce opportunity to be seized, I was always instinctively on the lookout for these instances and how I could not run from them but embrace them. Upon reflection, there are probably two significant business inflection points that became a hallmark of what I have been able to accomplish. The first is the shift from the supply economy to the demand economy as mentioned. Recognizing that companies and brands are not things, but communities I seized the opportunity in transforming companies that I worked for from “producers” to customer centric, values-led communities. The second is a realization of a profound sea change in company make up and the needs of future company leaders. Client after client expressed to me the urgent need to bring in readiness an entirely new generation of leadership. This generation, born of the digital era, seek leadership guidance, community support and mentorship differently â€" this is what led to the creation of Planet Jockey (our leadership game based upon the emotionally intelligent philosophy of buoyancy). Can you share some of the obstacles that you faced when pitching the MasterCard Priceless campaign? It was the pitch of the decade, $100,000,000, 50 agencies were narrowed to 6. And then to two. And then, in a moment, the client informed the anxious finalists that the advertising they proposed which included our “Priceless” campaign would be placed in consumer testing and whoever garnered the highest score would win this coveted account. We waited and then learned (to our horror!) that “Priceless” bombed! It test scored far lower than our rival. And yet, because we understood, not merely how effective “Priceless” could be, but the hearts and desires of our MasterCard client, the unspoken, visceral, emotional motivation, “the hidden agenda,” marketing director Larry Flanagan of MasterCard urged the board to award us the business, in his words “We knew we had a good idea in ‘Priceless’, but what mattered was we felt we could win with them.” If someone is a young aspiring leader, what advice would you give them to get started on their own journey? I guess you could call me a “mutt.” As a kid from the wrong side of the tracks, terribly aspirant and wanting to make his way in the competitive world of Madison Avenue, I secretly worried, because I may not have had the pedigree of my competitors, that I would not possess the requisite “list” for leadership. To any young person on their leadership journey, I say to you this: Be Yourself. You will be embraced, you will be celebrated and you will be followed because of who you are, as you are. Genuineness, authenticity, and your own special brand of uniqueness is what connects you to your colleagues, your clients and most of all your people. So let the eccentricities fly! Thank you to Kevin Allen for taking the time to chat with me. Be sure to check out his new book!
