Udemy’s Post

Its time to end the year

Move over, job seekers! This Diwali, our cleaning tools are taking over the job market! #OpenToWork By influencing from the psychological principle of relatability, Blinkit connects with its audience's pre-Diwali sentiments, making the boring task of cleaning feel festive and fun. This approach not only showcases their products but also positions them as a part of the celebration. In the era of digital marketing, this strategy exemplifies the power of humor and relatable content in engaging an audience. And this post also falls into basic rule of advertisement that is, indulging humour, leveraging with emotion, exaggerating a bit and showcasing what value you ought to deliver and you are good to go!

Blinkit clearly hasn't thought this ad through. This post can be interpreted negatively in many different ways by people currently having the "Open to Work" tag. Even I couldn't comprehend this at first. I am currently looking for an internship and have the "Open to Work" tag, and these are three thoughts that crossed my mind at first - 1. When people add "Open to Work", they might feel as if they are actively saying "Hire me so I can clean up your messes! After all, that's how much I'm worth anyway!" 2. People new to LinkedIn might end up thinking "Open to Work should not be taken so seriously. Only desperate and low-income or low-profile people use it". 3. Is this how Blinkit views people (even as a joke)? As someone who cleans up other people's messes and then is left in a corner until another cleaning is required? Also, for anyone still thinking this is clever/good marketing: It's absolutely not.  There's a reason why companies invest so much into good marketing and why marketing can make or break a brand's reputation. Such ads should be posted on forums or websites where content like memes, jokes, dark humour and the like are circulated. Not on a professional and serious platform like LinkedIn. This ad is very disrespectful, insensitive and very ignorant of people's sentiments. Please understand that this post doesn't intend to hate on Blinkit. It's just that this ad/post is a terrible promotion attempt. #badmarketing

This is a great way to end of the year. As we wrap up another busy year of teaching, it’s easy to feel like the only priority is to cross the finish line. But taking some time to do a proper inventory of your Coding and Robotics resources can make a world of difference when the new year begins. Think about it—are your robots in good shape? Do you have enough coding kits, batteries, or parts to hit the ground running next year? Are there licenses or tools that need updating? A year-end inventory isn’t just about staying organised; it’s about setting yourself and your learners up for success. It helps you: Avoid scrambling for missing resources in January. Spot what needs fixing, replacing, or upgrading. Plan lessons with confidence, knowing you’ve got everything you need. By getting everything in order now, you’ll thank yourself later when the new term begins, and you’re ready to dive straight into teaching. Have you done your inventory yet like Kerry-Ann van der Merwe ? What’s your go-to strategy for staying on top of everything? Share tips to make 2025 our most organised year yet! #CodingAndRobotics #TeachingTips #PlanAhead #EdTech #organise Resolute Education #success

I needed this reminder. It's easy to feel that everything must be perfect before taking action. But here’s the truth: you don’t have to be completely ready to start. Just take that first step, and momentum will follow. I find that the two biggest things that help me are: 👉 Break big goals into smaller steps. By focusing on one task at a time, you’ll make steady progress toward your ultimate goal. 💡 Surround yourself with support. Share your intentions with others—they'll help keep you accountable and motivated.
