Thank you to Kim Woodbridge of (Anti)Social Development for partnering with me to transform the CareerTrend.net website. As she states on her website, Kim “will develop a theme with the look and functionality that is perfect for your business.”
It’s true! Her consultative style leading into the development process was both invigorating and comforting. I knew from day one I was in good hands.
Thanks also to my career and business coach Whitney Johnson who spurred me to rebuild the website from the ground up. Leading up to the makeover, Whitney’s encouragements and thought-provoking insights shepherded me through a process of self-disruption.
Moreover, I am grateful for a husband who always is my truth-teller. Thank you, Rob Poindexter, for your honesty that I rely upon, honing my home page headline just days before launch.
I consider career and business branding an evolving, ongoing process. I’m not done yet: I have a few wrinkles to iron out and some hopes and dreams yet to act upon. Amid those evolvements, however, it is nice to take a moment and celebrate the milestones.
Today, I celebrate CareerTrend’s new home!

Aloha Jacqui,
Congratulations on the rebranding of your site!
Cheering you on with a quote from Travis Bradberry.
“Influential people are never satisfied with the status quo. They’re the ones who constantly ask, ‘What if?’ and ‘Why not?’ They’re not afraid to challenge conventional wisdom, and they don’t disrupt things for the sake of being disruptive; they do it to make things better.”
You are a career coach / a career partner who understands and motivates clients toward beneficial disruption! Two thumbs up for you and your website!
By the way, Travis Bradberry contributes to the WSJ, just as you have!
Best to you as always,
Jackie Yun

Hello Jackie,
You know how dearly I love your visits here!
I am complimented that you shared Travis Bradberry’s quote. I truly wanted to ‘make my messaging better’ vs undergoing the makeover ‘just for the sake of disrupting.’
You sure know how to get to the heart of other people’s ‘hearts + souls’ with insightful comments and quotes.
Thank you so much for being my friend, and for your ongoing support!
Jacqui

Good morning, Dorlee,

Marianna Paulson says
I love your new site, Jacqui!
It is such a perfect reflection of who you are – the values that you hold dear and those you mirror for your clients.
Your clean and lean website is easy to navigate. I’m sure your potential clients, many of whom come to you with a boatload of experience can appreciate that you will help them unfurl their skills and experience into a resume that is just as clean and lean to propel them into a suitable “working harbour”.
Bravo!
Jacqui Barrett-Poindexter says
Wow, Marianna, thank you for ‘getting it’ (in re: the the values I hold dear + those I mirror for my clients). You’ve mirrored, perhaps, an unspoken intention of my new site.
Thank you for that great gift!!
Moreover, your impressions of the site’s look (clean/lean) and feel (easy to navigate) make me so happy! I love ‘meat’ in art/writing/etc., and I also want a certain clarity that a leaner look provides.
Finally, sea-ing your nautical/boating metaphor at the conclusion of your comment will help me sail into the final course of the afternoon, with lightness!
Thank you so much my faithful and articulate friend,
Jacqui
Samantha Gluck says
Wow, Jac! I knew you had remodeled and rebranded your site, but I only now got the time to slide on over and check ti out. It’s absolutely GORGEOUS! Not only that, it’s much more navigable and functional. Beauty plus functionality — nothing better than that!
Jacqui Barrett-Poindexter, Master Resume Writer says
Thank you, Samantha! It means a lot that you took a little sail through the shores of my recently rebranded site 🙂 I value your professional opinion, and embrace the ‘beauty plus functionality’ assessment!
