My Creative skills based CV

I came up with a new and highly creative CV last week. I was inspired to do this after I had attended an interesting and enlightening CV workshop the day before.

Here is a definition I had found for CV.

Curriculum vitae is a Latin expression which can be loosely translated as [the] course of [my] life.

I like the above definition. It puts things in perspective for me. After I had completed my creative CV, I took some time to read over what I had written. It made me realize that I have been working hard to attain my career goals. Maybe this was due to me putting what I had done and what I am continuing to do, down on paper.

I had placed the above jpg logo into my CV. I will place some of what I had written down below:

ATOCONSULTING.COM: FEBRUARY 2005 - to present.

I came up with a new and unique learning and development solution, the likes of which I have yet to see anywhere else, through atoconsulting.com

Entrepreneurial thinking employees can be an asset to any company. The Guardian states that 77% of recruiters had used search engines to find background data on candidates. The Huffington post reported that 80% of recruiters use Google when screening potential hires. Google is the top search engine in the world.

If you would like to find out more about me and about the work I am doing, I will save you some precious time by directing you to the most pertinent info. 

The learning and development solution in mention at the top of my CV is: School of The Remote Influencer.

Please Google the following:

I won't place the rest of the text from my CV. I had placed five bullet points with the corresponding info next to the points. The whole CV was done in bold. I made the font size quite big too so as to capture interest from recruiters.

My CV should show recruiters that I am a creative thinker and that I have research skills plus project management skills. These are sought after skills to have. I will be adding more work to the bullet point areas over the course of time. These bullet points can be like e-portfolios in some ways. I have added my web site and my social media business pages in these bullet points. My CV will encourage recruiters to use Google to look up School of The Remote Influencer and my other sites, pages etc.
When they look these things up, they will see that I am indeed an entrepreneurial thinker as I had stated in my CV.

The other good thing about this CV is the fact that I do not need to update it as my work with atoconsulting.com is ongoing. Here is a link to a blog post which explains why I chose to use the atoconsulting.com domain name:

Copywriting. I am developing my skills in this area.

The above is a new ad I had created for my RI 22 Smart Pills product. I have not received formal education or training in copywriting. However, it is an area in which I believe I can excel. I like to write and I am a very creative thinker. Research is another passion of mine. I am somewhat of an analytical thinker too. In regard to research, I lean more towards qualitative research. I believe in the power of words. I draw power from words, descriptions of things, products and ideas etc. It is as though I can almost create a visual picture through analyzing words. 

When I came up with the above ad, I tried to cut down on writing too many words. It was not an easy task. I wanted the words I chose to capture what my product is about, and of course to create interest in the product at the same time. I highlighted the fact that RI 22 is an internet created product. I will be focusing on this aspect of RI 22. This will be the selling point for RI 22. If you noticed, I mentioned internet twice in the ad. I created the RI 22 product and I have been using it for several years now. This is what RI 22 has done for me:

I came up with the idea for this product via internet research. I have created a Facebook business page for RI 22. In this page, I have freely given info and some instructions on how people can make their own RI 22 smart pills from home. The word can spread about this product via the internet. Customers / clients can receive instruction on how to make these pills via the internet. Payments can also be done via the internet. I have just confirmed what my ad had said: RI 22 is an internet created smart pill.

I have written a book, an e-book, over 23 business articles, with more to come. I manage two Google blogs, a Google plus business page, I also manage 4 Facebook business pages. I own a business web site too. I came up with a unique learning and development solution in 2009. What I have described here is the 'increased productivity' and 'quality of work,' benefit I had written about in the above ad of mine. 

I hope you like the analysis of my ad. As mentioned above, I use RI 22 myself and I stand by the info in my ad. When I reflected upon my past experiences, I recall how I had created ads for special events I had created. I believe I was inclined towards copywriting from a long time back,
