She is the author of Radical Careering: 100 Truths to Jumpstart Your Job, Your Career, and Your Life and Fascinate: Your 7 Triggers to Persuasion and Captivation. She is the Chief Executive Officer of Fascinate, Inc. In 2012, she was inducted into the National Speakers Association Speakers Hall of Fame.

Career

Sally attended Duke University. She graduated from Duke in 1991.[1] Hogshead's first job was working as a copywriter at Fallon Worldwide.[2] Hogshead also worked as a copywriter for Wieden+Kennedy and The Martin Agency.[3] She started her first business when she was 27 years old, which was an advertising agency, Robaire and Hogshead.[3][4] Agency clients included Rémy Martin and Target Corporation.[4] Hogshead left her position to work for Crispin Porter + Bogusky, in their Venice, California office.[3] The new position paid her half of what she was making as CEO of her own company. She did this in order to expand her skill sets, learn more, and raise her "portable equity." Portable equity is a term coined by Hogshead that describes "personal capital that you get to take with you from one job to another." Her decision proved successful for her work life - she was making more money within four years than she had previously.[4] While working for Crispin Porter + Bogusky, Hogshead was creative director for a commercial for Dolce & Gabbana Eyewear that was named the 6th "Best Ad on TV" for the week of August 3, 2005.[5]

Hogshead was inducted into the National Speakers Association's Speaker Hall of Fame in 2012.[6] Marie Forleo interviewed Hogshead, in 2013, and called her "the world's leading expert on the science of fascination,".[7] She has also been interviewed by Chris Brogan and Joe Sorge,[8] and Mitch Joel.[9] Her work has been featured in the Huffington Post,[10] Mashable,[11] Oprah Radio,[12] CBS News,[13] and the Today Show.[14][15] She has written for Print[16] and has keynoted conferences for the American Academy of Family Physicians,[17] the Consumer Bankers Association,[18] IncentiveWorks,[19] Medical Group Management Association,[20] Destination Marketing Association International,[21] among others. Hogshead spoke at TEDxAtlanta, presenting a talk called "How to Fascinate," in 2011.[22] Hogshead has worked with Buca di Beppo,[3] BMW, Coca-Cola, Nike, Inc.,[23] and Harry Winston, Inc.[24]

Radical Careering: 100 Truths to Jumpstart Your Job, Your Career, and Your Life

Gotham Books published Hogshead's Radical Careering: 100 Truths to Jumpstart Your Job, Your Career, and Your Life in 2005. The book, according to Hogshead, is geared towards "people who are comfortable with taking some radical risks in their lives—they're okay with focusing on their long-term happiness and sacrificing things in the short-term. They don't follow the traditional rules." The book features 100 "truths" about employment and careers. Hogshead shares "truths" such as: #15 "Aspire to be the dumbest person in the room," #19 "Being in a crap job isn't your fault; staying in a crap job is," and #99: "Expressing your truest self is the ultimate competitive advantage."[4] The "truths" are supported by research done with 1,000 Generation X professionals for the book.[25]

Jack Covert of the Milwaukee Business Journal reviewed the book. He acknowledged the design and "punchy headlines" on the cover, and describes the book as reminding him of "Fast Company in its prime."[25] Radical Careering was chosen by the New York Public Library as one of their "Light Reading for Job Seekers and Career Changers," choices.[26]

Fascinate: Your 7 Triggers to Persuasion and Captivation

“If you’re not creating a negative reaction from somebody, you probably aren’t fascinating anybody.”

Sally Hogshead[23]

In 2010, HarperCollins published Hogshead's book, Fascinate: Your 7 Triggers to Persuasion and Captivation. The book came out of research that Hogshead started in 2006, in which she had over 100,000 people take personality tests. The tests focused on "a variety of fields and levels of professional achievements." The outcomes provided the seven triggers that Hogshead features in her book.[27]

The seven triggers are: Power, Passion, Mystique, Prestige, Alarm, Rebellion, and Trust. Hogshead suggests that while changing a company's product might not be possible, changing the story told about the product, can allow their marketing to focus on the different triggers, or archetypes, that she has developed, replacing traditional demographic marketing methods.[28] The seven triggers are also meant to be used "to help people understand how their personality is most likely to add distinctive value."[29] Hogshead also stresses individuality, and that people need to "unlearn how to be boring," in order to make an impact professionally, which can lead to positive impacts personally.[30] She suggests people shouldn't just focus on being "the best", but "being known."[23]

Hogshead also developed the "F Score," which is a personality test used to determine one's personality archetype out of 49 options.[31] The test is now called the "The Fascination Advantage Assessment". When Hogshead spoke at the Inc. Leadership Forum, audience participants took the test, with the majority of audience members having "Passion" and "Power" as their main triggers, with a lower than average scoring on "Trust".[24] She also tested the audiences at the Million Dollar Round Table and National Association of Insurance and Financial Advisors conferences. Both conferences, which finance and insurance, had similar traits: Power and Prestige.[31]

The book was reviewed by Publishers Weekly and described as having "an uneven start" but in the end it "packs a big punch."[32] Inc. rated the book a seven out of ten, with ten being "good to great," and noted that "Hogshead relies in roughly equal measure on personal interviews, secondary sources, and experience working with companies. A survey of more than 1,000 people commissioned for the book provides statistical ballast."[24]

Personal life

Hogshead is married and has eight children.[4][33] She lives in Orlando, Florida.[23] Her sister is Nancy Hogshead-Makar.
