    Hi,

    I'm currently looking for work as my name suggests - i have a lot of experience in the marketing area and I believe I have a real opportunity with a company - I have met them a couple of times and they have asked me to prepare a short presentation on how I can add value to their organisation!

    Where do I start?
    Do I start with my experience / what was successful / their company???

    Any help in putting this together would be appreciated.

    Thanks,

    I know what I am about to say may come across as being smart but as you have marketing experience I am suprised that you are not sure where to start. I personally would look at the company's mission statement, the job description and what they are looking for, then match up your experience, personality, etc and show them how your specific experience can help them achieve their goals and add value to their company. I'd do something snazzy via powerpoint or whatever media you can use and list their needs and attractively link to your experience, education etc as value pointers for their compnay and make a visual connection between two. As I said at the start it is slightly worrying that you are unsure of which approach to take for this because this should be right up your street. If it helps think of yourself as a product or brand that is able to bring value to their company.

    When preparing your presentation just keep in mind what they asked you to do, "how I can add value to their organisation".

    They said a short presentation, so make it short and just tell them "how I can add value to their organisation". Start by introducing your self, then just tell them "how I can add value to their organisation". It sounds simple, but that's how I would go about it.
