Greetings!

 

U.S. unemployment is actually over 50% if you factor for underemployment! For minorities, the rate is even higher!This is time to take charge of our career and venture dreams! Join us and be part of a new group in making!!

 

Welcome to this member-driven effort to create a forum for underemployed & unemployed mid-career professionals and educated small business owners in a tough economy ! Check below to see if this forum can benefit you and make you a marketable business professional so you can land a better job.

Are you an underemployed business professional? Did you take a significant pay decrease or take a few steps down from your previous title in order to just pay your living expenses? Do you want to be better than your competition and get paid what you are worth in this tough economy? Looking for skills (finance, marketing, IT, etc.) fast to facilitate a career transition?

 

Are you an unemployed professional? Looking for new skills? Looking to increase confidence & marketability to improve their chance of employment? Tired of interviewing without getting results? Lacking skills (finance, marketing, IT, etc.) and finding it difficult to make career transitions?

 

Are you a new small business owner wondering how to keep your business open and start generating more profit?  Just breaking even? Can’t see how many years to stay like that? Lacking business acumen, new skills (marketing/social media, finance, business partnerships, funding plans, business plans, business presentations, etc.), and finding it difficult to capitalize on new opportunities?

 

Are you a small business owner faced to find Plan C ? Many of us lost our professional jobs and took the job loss as an opportunity to start our own businesses only to find out the pay is much less and the stress much more.  How do you decide to save your business from going under or close without losing your life savings? Wondering how to create salvage options?

When faced with a tiger in the wild (like this economy), one’s soft skills hardly count! This forum is intended to fill critical “hard managerial & business skills” gaps for building new skills quickly and without having to sign up for a university and get another loan! 

Becoming highly competitive is the best way to overcome this tough economy - no matter if you are looking to enhance your resume or to find ways to increase sales in your own business.

The uniqueness of this forum lies in our collective mindset which is to share & learn “hard managerial & business skills” by doing with the support from each other! And, in a non-corporate “no fear” ambience!

Liked the philosophy? See the value in reclaiming your worth? Then, join the forum today and start becoming competitive!

Thank you.

Julie
