Audacious Twitter Gambit Wins Woman RMA Scholarship

Posted on June 2nd, 2010 by Keith Ferrazzi

When Joy Meredith was getting ready to throw her hat back into the job-hunting ring, she wanted to take the smartest and mostJoy Meredith efficient path to finding a new gig. Inspiration struck when Joy realized that an agent had been instrumental in landing her first book deal.  Why not enlist an agent to find a great gig?   Then Joy went beyond that and thought – “Why not reach out to the people who know me and think I'm brilliant and create an army of agents?”

Joy hatched the idea for her Joyful Job Bounty and sent it out to the universe via her blog, Twitter, and anywhere else she could think to share.  Joy’s Joyful Job Bounty offers 10% of her new salary to anyone who puts her in touch with the right people to land her next project.

Joy’s bounty was inspired by Never Eat Alone and Who’s Got Your Back, and to move forward even further Joy wanted to join the RMA program.  She reached out and offered an additional bounty on a scholarship to RMA.  If what she learned in RMA led to her next opportunity, she would pay back the tuition along with a matching charitable contribution.

Impressed by Joy’s ingenuity, I am giving her a 50% scholarship to RMA --  and 9 more scholarships will go to other unemployed people who can make a case for what they would do with the knowledge gained in the program. Winners will only pay $150 for the entire 10-week RMA program!

Do you want to be one of the other 9 scholarship recipients?   Send an e-mail to community@relationshipmastersacademy.com with the subject line: Pick Me for RMA Scholarship and tell me why you should receive a scholarship and what you will do with what you learn in RMA.  You must be over 18 years of age and unemployed in order to be eligible.

Good luck!
