THIS is the #1 Website You Need to be Using if Youโre Transitioning Out of the Military ๐๐ฝ ย
As a military speaker, almost weekly I am speaking to someone who is getting ready to transition out of the #military and I am noticing a huge INconsistency w/ how #veterans: ย
๐ฏ see themselves
๐ฏ sell themselves
๐ฏ BRAND themselves to the marketplace ย
And the reality is theyโre โselling the image of a soldier, which is cool, but that is not what is going to get them hired. ย I am on a personal mission to help our brave men and women mentally transition from a soldierโs mindset to a business professionalโs mindsetโฆ ย So the goal is I now need them to-- ย
๐จ see themselves ย
๐จ sell themselves ย
๐จ BRAND themselves to the marketplace ย ย
As business professionals ย
๐ฏ b/c soldiers donโt get hired, business professionals do. ๐ฏ ย
๐ It's why I encourage my veterans and soldiers to become a student, of business and I believe the best way to do that is to utilize the #1 website for job seekers, LinkedIn. ย ย
ย ๐Thatโs right, LinkedIn is the social website for business professionals and itโd be the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd website Iโd be on if I was beginning my military transition journey. ย What other website can you research a job, whose currently in the role, compare their skills to yours, learn about the company, AND connect w/ the hiring manager directly? ย As well as sell yourself, promote yourself, and brand your skillsets to that industry. ย ย
ย ๐๐ฝ I believe most transitioning veterans have a visibility issue, in tath the market doesnโt โsee themโ so how can the market โhire themโ let's check out this workshop on Linkedin to do just that.ย
ย This is just one of many strategies I coach, mentor, and train my soldiers on as I essentially created my own military transition program. ย
You got this, and I got you โค๏ธ๐๐ฝ ย

Top 10 Ways Transitioning Military Veterans Can Build a Brand Using LinkedIn
To my #militarytransition team, check out these 10 Ways to Brand Yourself to the Marketplace Using #LinkedIn as your transition out of the #military begins. ย ย ย
While I understand soldiers have a huge amount of resources built-in while they're in the military, I can't help but notice the statistics that show high veteran unemployment could be caused by poor health, selection, employer discrimination, skills mismatch, or job search. ย
The reality is soldiers are trained for the combat battlefield and not the economic battlefield. ย
So as America's #1 Military Speaker, I've developed my own military transition program to help our transitioning veterans mentally transition, from a soldier's mindset to a business professional's mindset. ย

What is Your Legacy Beyond the Uniform? โค๏ธ ๐ค๐ฝ
Legacy, legacy, legacy...
Many soldiers tie their identity to the military uniform, which makes their military transition even harder. ย As a military speaker, it is my job to challenge and push you--
So I ask, how are you loving on the world, supporting the world, and showing up for the world as Bety White, John Madden, and Bob Saget did?
We need your leadership...
We need your voice...
We need your example...
We need your love...
We need you...
This and more, on another 'Saturday Session w/ A Soldier's Coach'

My name is Ritchie Thomas, A Soldier's Coach (America's #1 Military Speaker & Trainer) and after spending 6 years in the US Army and transitioning out of the military in 2007 I realized I was in a world of hurt financially, professionally, and just all around. ย I knew I had to rebuild myself and often wished I had a guide to do so; after repeatedly hearing how many books millionaires and billionaires read, I started to study them. ย I wanted to know what made them successful, leaders, and how I could rebuild myself after serving in the US Military. After researching and compiling dozens and dozens of the most sought after books, I narrowed it down to 10 for numerous reasons: economics, understanding the dollar, understanding business, mentally toughness, and yes, even crafting a life plan.
