Recently I have been applying for gigs..as much as I love real estate I tend to enjoy technology too. With the necessity to fill in the gaps of income..I thought I would give it a shot, heck I do it just about everyday why not get paid for doing it.
One thing I have found..when applying for these online gigs..you must be careful and do your homework. Scam…spam…phishing!
Just as an employer who is seeking to hire new employees often times do background checks..the same should apply to some of the many companies who require you to apply online.
Many of the job sites and gig sites have the same problem…we freely give our personal information to only be sent to either another job site or get spammed to death…but the worst part is for someone who is desperate to find employment..you may end up getting scammed.
This should not be happening..especially for those seeking serious employment/gigs.
Today I applied for what I thought to be a dream gig..one of my favorite past-times…blogging...it was a strange thing but I decided to go ahead and do some research on the company. Little did I know…if you google them they were known for scamming…for spamming and phishing.
As I read more about the company…I found out they had changed their name and the story goes beyond scamming…spamming and phishing.
Moral of the story: If you are in serious need of work..before you send your resume out online...research the company…otherwise you might wake up to an overloaded email box or someone taking your personal information and have a field day with it.
Is the best use of the internet?

The year has flown by and we are about to enter the 2nd half of the year. For financial purposes..its time to take a look at your numbers. Mid-year is a good time to give you business a once over.
If you are commissioned based it would be smart to take a look at your numbers and ask yourself a few questions:
Are my numbers where they are supposed to be year to date?
- Expenses
- Budget
- Income
- Inventory
- Services
If not, now is the time to make adjustments and adjust your goals and as you look at these important aspects of business, ask yourself
Am I offering…
- Value
- Quality
- Incredible Service
What are my weaknesses and strengths?
Now is the time to review your goals and make adjustments accordingly. The biggest budget doesn’t necessarily generate the most revenue..if you want people to keep coming back and recommending your services via word of mouth..I wouldn’t review just the numbers. The most valuable and effective form of marketing…is word of mouth!
