The sad truth.  This is what professional marketers deal with
day in and day out.

Keep in mind that it's more effective to network with real people
both in person, on the phone, and through email.  If this is your
strategy, then the resume requirements change - it becomes more of
a spec sheet on yourself.  You will get asked for a resume as a
formality as you get close to closing your employment deal.

Spend 2 hours writing your resume.  Ensure there are _no_ mistakes
in spelling and grammer.  Ensure that it is a fast and easy read.

Then go find and use your network to convince someone that you
will increase their sales or (not as effective) you will reduce
their costs.
