Opportunities – Jobs and Gigs
Are you going to start searching for skills that are needed in the marketplace? Checking the job market for the new job openings might reveal some interesting information. Do you currently have the skills that are in demand?
It might be a good idea to check your skills and how marketable they are to the current job market. Are you going to invest in training to upgrade your skill sets? There is a lot of talk about getting more college degrees or certifications.
Searching for more opportunities could lead to learning about different ways of making income. Some people might start looking at freelancing or starting a side hustle. Going to the gig economy sites like fiverr and looking through the listings might bring light to different ideas and concepts. Could you offer services like some of those found on fiverr or upwork?
The business mindset might kick into gear and a different way of thinking could come into play. What about using leverage and connecting the marketing with the gigs that are found? When people think about fiverr, they might still have the thinking about the past when the gigs were five dollars. Things have changed over the years and now, there are different types of gigs that are at various price points outside of the 5 dollar gigs.
Watching the financial news could reveal the current state of the job market. What are the monthly unemployment numbers and how many new jobs have been created is a recurring topic. People that get laid off are still going to want to earn income and finding new sources of making money will come into clear view. Are they going to head right over to the job sites? Are they going to look into starting their own business or a side hustle?
