Here’s the Audio Replay Recording for my April 5, 2009 Call

Why Now Is The Perfect Time to Start Your Own Home-Based Business Consulting With People or Leading Workshops on How They Can Finally Break “Outside the Job Box!”

This was a fantastic free 60-minute telephone seminar on which you'll hear me, Valerie Young, Founder and Dreamer in Residence at Changing Course and Career Change Expert for People Who Want To Do Their Own Thing, interview Tom Kennedy, a former consulting client of mine who took the ideas we talked about and ran with them, and two graduates of the Outside the Job Box Career Expert Course, Cheryl Young and Sherrie Porterfield.

All three of these individuals offered a unique perspective on why now is the perfect time to start your own home-based business. In fact, Cheryl kicked off the call by sharing a little bit about her work with the National Department of Labor with the Consortium for Entrepreneurship Education and how they are working to prepare people on unemployment to transition to entrepreneurship. How cool is that!

Here are some of things that we focused on during this call:

How a shy unassuming woman from rural Minnesota finally found her “tribe,” her voice… and her calling… (You won’t believe what she told her boss!)
3 ways creative entrepreneurs can turn the down economy into a tremendous opportunity to get new clients and customers.
What an Outside the Job Box Expert has learned jaunting around her state interviewing people at entrepreneurial education programs that can open up a whole new world of possibilities for Outside the Job Box Experts!
What your clients really want – and need from you (it may not be what you think!).
How you can take the bull by the horns and turn your knack for creative brainstorming and turn it into a business.
How new business owners can avoid the “analysis paralysis” struggle.
How you can start your business for a lot less money than you think.
Valerie’s "Get Ahead Now Strategy" of how you can take your passion and turn it into a business – starting now.

To your dreams,

P.S. If you’re interested in taking your passion of helping others find their calling, sign up to be on my First In Line Priority List for my Outside The Job Box Career Expert Course, that I’ll be launching in just a matter of hours...

This is a unique and proven program that I rolled out back in December. I had such an overwhelming response that I sold out in a matter of weeks and had to take the course off the market. After wrestling with whether I ought to open this course back up or not, I've decided to launch it to a limited number of people. And with the economy the way it is, there are many more people who are seeking alternatives ways to make a living without a j-o-b. I plan to open up this course again to a limited number of new trainees in the next week or so. Be the first in line- go here
