Do you recognize the difference between a job and a true opportunity? Do you worry about settling for a paycheck when you want to work with passion and purpose? Are you busy for hours online, yet totally unproductive? Are you drowning in coffee? Networking, but getting nowhere? Have you outsourced the direction of your career to a piece of paper? Are Recruiters and Head Hunters not returning your calls? Know why? Do you need a plan to make measurable progress, now? The Economy of One program will teach you to: Identify six paths to pursue revenue outside of “get a job” or “start a business” Avoid a broken employment system, going direct to companies and people who need exactly what you have to offer Act like an executive agent, recruiter and professional connector Think and act like an entrepreneur (even if you aren’t ready to commit to being one) Recognize the difference between another “job” and a customized vision of a true opportunity Avoid being positioned as a “desperate jobseeker,” retrofitting yourself Clearly state the Story of You™ Strongly position your value to tap the 80% of positions not posted Understand the difference between sincere relationship building and “networking” Create, nurture and expand relationships so that you are never at the mercy of traditional methods again Realize that money is anything you can use to solve problems for others Utilize an accountability group committed to your success Make measurable progress against your goals Use a step-by-step business best practice to fill your pipeline so you and your family are never without options again Be an Economy of One, driving demand for what you can uniquely supply in the "gig economy" Consider this: What you choose to do for the rest of your life is the fourth most important decision of your life, right behind decisions to marry, have kids, and your religious beliefs. The choice of what to do while on planet earth is huge. In fact, over 70% of workers are unhappy with their current career. Yet most people take more time to plan for a wedding or birthday party than they do for their career! It’s time to regain control and clarity for the fourth most important decision of your life. It’s time to become an Economy of One! This book is written as a workbook with exercises and spaces to fill in the reader's personal answers.
