Contest Winner: Name the Wise Job-Seeking Cow!

Interviewed on satellite, terrestrial, and internet radio, the Wise Job-Seeking Cow said, “I love my new name. I worried needlessly.”

To calm myself prior to the decision, I listened to the judges deliberating my fate. I hid in the closet hoping that no one would see me.  Unfortunately, only my tail would fit. My body was outside the closet. I’m pretty big. But, no one even noticed me. They were so busy talking. Then, I heard them read the winning entry. Here it is!

My name for this Wise Job-Seeking Cow is Astro, short for Astrope, the greek goddess of lightning. You see, this beautiful animal with the shock of lightning white hair on her face will be using her unique physical attribute to set herself apart from the rest of the herd to get her dream job of starring in Dr. Arlene’s video. Think more electric than an AC/DC concert, more flashy than Lady Gaga, more brilliant than an Ultra-Brite toothpaste smile, shockingly vivacious, watt a cow...think Astro!

I stopped breathing for a moment, while I was listening. Oops! I need to add a title. I quickly texted Dr. Arlene on my iPhone to add “Lady” before my name. She looked at the text and couldn’t stop laughing. I had been discovered. Everyone looked at me hanging out of the closet. Yes, my new name is Lady Astro. On formal occasions, I will use the name Lady Astrope.

I didn’t tell you who named me.  You will meet the winner on Dr. Arlene’s upcoming radio show, Win Without Competing! In my next communication, I will announce the date and time. Of course, keep checking http://www.winwithoutcompeting.com/ and http://www.blogtalkradio.com/search/dr.-arlene-barro/

I can’t resist telling you a little something about the winner, even though I have been sworn to secrecy. He is a director at a prestigious hospital. My lips are now sealed.

It’s time for my afternoon tea. While I’m sipping pomegranate delight, I’ll be using Dr. Arlene’s app. I want to evaluate my personal brand. Have you used Dr. Arlene’s app? Branding yourself is a must to achieve career success. Hurry! Go now! http://www.winwithoutcompeting.com/author/ibrandu4hire.html

I almost forgot. I'm a star! See me on YouTube!

Talk to you soon!

New name? Contest: Name the Wise Job-Seeking Cow!

I want to be sure that my new name is exactly right. Let me share my thoughts to guide you. I’m a famous video star! See me on YouTube below. But, what may you not know is that I’m featured in Dr. Arlene’s app iBrandU4Hire, used all over the world. Now I’m a global star. I fit right in at barro global search, inc. 

I heard Dr. Arlene say that I’m charming. That’s why she made me a star. I know that she doesn’t want me to get a swelled head. Didn’t she notice? I’m a cow! My head is naturally big. I need a big name. Maybe I need to be a judge in my own contest. What do you think? That’s enough about me for now.

I live on a beautiful farm in Southern California. I met Dr. Arlene recently when she selected me to star in her video iBrandU4Hire. I heard the farm manager tell Dr. Arlene my name. Ugh! I don’t like my name. I need a classy lady’s name befitting an award-winning wise cow who wants to brand herself. Remember, I’m looking for a job. I want my name to stand out! Who can forget the name “Ivanka”? Yes, it’s memorable but doesn’t suit me. Can you name me?
