I’m so bored with my job! I could be doing so much more for my clients…but they aren’t using me to my fullest potential! I know that I am capable of doing more than what I am doing and getting paid for. Why can’t anybody else see it? You’ve heard the expression, it’s not what you know, it’s who you know. Here’s a new expression to consider: It’s not what you know, it’s who you know, and who knows you and what you’re capable of. So, who knows you and what you’re capable of? If you’re not being used to your fullest potential at work or by your clients, it’s because other people don’t know what you’re really capable of. Don’t think that telling your clients what else you can do for them is necessarily enough – you need a new way of approaching the ‘capabilities equation,’ so that you are doing (and getting paid for) what you truly want. In this program with career expert Elizabeth Freedman, listeners will walk away knowing: How to build a reputation for yourself that reflects your real capabilities How to develop and promote your expertise to become a resource and go-to person in your field How to create ‘output,’ a system for letting others (including your clients) see your capabilities on a regular basis Elizabeth Freedman, MBA, is the author of Work 101: Learning the Ropes of the Workplace without Hanging Yourself and The MBA Student's Job Seeking Bible.

Owner Betsy Rosengarden started Sweet Cakes 10 years ago, in a somewhat run-down area, with a mission to provide quality products and a gathering place for local people. Betsy worked as a pastry chef in several cities, but owning her own bakery was a lifelong dream. Three years ago Sarah Patten Lioce, a chef and teacher, joined the business as co-owner. Sweet Cakes is a profitable corporation that has become a linchpin of the community; young people intern and work there, the bakery donates products and gift certificates to local causes and it helps to fund events such as the annual Peace Fair. Sweet Cakes has received 7 “Best of RI” awards, including one for their signature Chocolate Pudding Cake, which was voted “Best Chocolate Fix” in the state. The bakery is open 7 days a week, with organic coffee, morning pastry (including muffins, scones, & croissants), cookies, brownies as well as custom cakes and cupcakes for any occasion. For these women, freshness and quality are all-important, and they have made this the cornerstone of their business. After 10 years, however, the partners are ready for a new challenge, and came up with a novel way to sell their business: they will give it as a prize to the winner of an essay contest which runs from Jan 15 until May 15th 2010!00:30:00TheSassyLadiesnosell business,vision,strategic planning,small business,contest to sell businessSweet Cakes is an award-winning bakery located in a small town in southern Rhode Island.
