Mastering the Art of Self-Promotion in the Crypto Industry
Selling oneself effectively is crucial in the crypto industry, where traditional methods of self-promotion often fall short. Many individuals tend to undersell their abilities due to fear of seeming arrogant, leading to missed opportunities, such as not applying for jobs when they only meet a fraction of the requirements. A distinction exists between two types of individuals: 'takers' and 'tellers.' Takers rely on traditional pathways and wait for opportunities to come to them, often doing so passively. In contrast, tellers assertively promote their skills and fit for a role, actively seeking to demonstrate how they can address specific needs of a company. This approach is more effective in the dynamic and often unpredictable landscape of crypto. Tellers control the narrative by presenting a strong, confident case for their value, leveraging their experience to fill existing gaps within organizations. High agency individuals, akin to tellers, assert their value with clarity and confidence, thereby enhancing their chances of success. In the evolving crypto marketplace, embracing the teller mindset allows professionals to stand out and seize opportunities that would otherwise be overlooked.
