Over the last month, we have added two new features to help promote your participation in Maven and secure more consultations. These features, along with the ability to activate a Maven Public Profile, are a powerful way for you to build your Maven network and find more consulting opportunities.
Connect with Me on Maven
We recently introduced the “Connect with Me on Maven” widget to help you advertise your participation in Maven and build your network. For example, you can connect with our CEO, Wyatt Nordstrom, by clicking on this button:
Consult With Me on Maven
The “Consult with Me” widget we introduced last week is a great way for you to promote yourself as a Maven expert and generate more consulting requests.
Here’s an example from one of our Mavens, Ewan MacLeod. Ewan is a mobile industry expert in the UK, and he has included his Consult with Me button on his website, Mobile Industry Review. Anyone who wishes to consult with Ewan can click directly over to his Maven profile and request a consultation!
As we’ve said before, why give away your insights for free when you can make money from them via Maven? When someone asks you to share your knowledge, ask them to schedule a paid consultation with you through Maven.
Click here for step-by-step instructions on how to set this up.
Getting the Most from Maven
If you really want to promote your profile, build your network and get more consulting offers:
- Activate your public profile
- Add the Connect with Me widget to your blog, website, and email signature
- Add the Consult with Me widget to your blog, website, and email signature
Use all three features to get the most from Maven.
