This is just like producing a newsletter but you only need to do it once and you can reuse it until the topic falls out of vogue. Summarize the industry pundits and then offer your own take on it. Read up on a hot topic like VoIP [voice over internet protocol] and write a 10-15 page summary linking it to your industry. A hot topic like VoIP will have effects on every industry in America but you need to concentrate on what’s important to your sector. Call some of the more quotable people you discovered during your research, and interview then for your own piece. Ask them for feedback before you publish. Print it and distribute it
Mail it to employers you want to work for.
Make it available electronically for e-zines.
Send it to business publications as a possible article.
Send it to trade publications relevant to the industries you have targeted for your job search.
Allow other publishers and editors to re-use your White Paper as long as they include your byline, email address and web site URL.

Breaking through
You can become recognized and branded as an industry expert by writing and producing a newsletter. All you really need to do is summarize best practices – add your experience or comments – print and mail it. When you send a newsletter with topical information that’s actually useful, employers may recognize your name when you telephone, making them more likely to take your call. When they in turn are looking to hire someone with your expertise you’re likely to be one of their first calls.
Newsletters should be 1-4 pages but no longer.
Summarize lengthy pieces and refer the reader to your web site for the full text version.
You can dress up the newsletter without breaking the bank by using pre-printed paper from companies like Paper Direct, http://paperdirect.com/
Make an electronic version and put it on your website.

Example: They reject your resume because it matches only 8 of 10 job requirements. Or the 24-year-old junior HR staffer reading your resume fails to understand your value because they have never seen anyone do what you do.
