Are you a “News Feed integrity data specialist?” 

Would you know what they do if you met one?*

Perhaps you’re a “Happiness Hero” or a “Galactic Travel Agent.”

Being a “Digital Overlord” sounds cool and someone Doctor Who might encounter.

Actually, it’s another term for Website Manager. 

Time travellers need not apply. 

All the above are actual job titles. 

When you dig into what they involve, they are often names for jobs with titles more familiar in other businesses. 

Spinning them makes them sound more exciting (well, maybe). 

Take “Happiness Hero” as described by ResumeCoach’s website. 

“Bringing happiness to the world is a dream for many people. Luckily now you can, if your goal is to bring happiness to customers who are experiencing difficulties with email. That’s right, a “Happiness Hero” is a customer service operative but with a far more positive spin.”

BTW, that job title is very different in scope for a “Chief Happiness Officer.”

That’s a much more senior position, and according to Novoresume, 72 companies on LinkedIn, including Google, have one of these exceedingly happy people. 

Do they, I wonder, ever have down days and what happens if they do? 

It’s a thought too horrible to contemplate. 

The list of weird and not so wonderful job titles is long. 

Parts of some of those titles include Monkeys, Rockstars, Herders, Masters, Ninjas, Wizards, and Handshakers, among many others. 

And not forgetting”Toilet Paper Messiah.” 

Saying that in response to the question, “And what do you do?” must raise some eyebrows.  

That gem is for an Office Manager role. 

In the US, I enjoyed conversations with our friendly “Sanitation Engineer.”

Each week, he was part of a team that emptied the bins in the street I was staying in. 

To my untrained eye, there didn’t seem to be a lot of engineering in the process. 

If you prefer straightforward thinking and speaking, the training and coaching my business provides will be a pleasure to work with. 

There will be no bragging about being taught by trade show Ninjas, Gurus, Masters, Wizards or the like. 

We focus on results, plain and simple. 

If that sounds good, the Ten Days course described here will instil a focus-driven mindset in the person you choose for training. 

What you call them after training is, of course, up to you. 

How about Trade Show Wrangler And Big Event Cheese? 

Very best,
