Don’t commit these business faux-pas

Getting your name out there when searching for a new job or attracting clients can be done at the click of a button.

Follow these strategies to boost your image and your reputation.

• Don’t take credit for others’ work. It’ll show you aren’t creative, and coworkers won’t trust you.
• Don’t say “we’ve always done it this way.” It shows close-mindedness and a lack of creativity.
• Delete your Facebook page and other non-professional social media. They can damage relationships and business if used improperly.
• Don’t wake up earlier than necessary. As your energy levels decrease toward the end of the workday, so do your ethics.
