Subject: RSVP for FREE Class-Be Your Own Boss: Freelancing and DIY Cottage Industry
Date: Wed, 19 Jan 2011 15:47:09 -0500
"Be Your Own Boss: Freelancing and DIY Cottage Industry"
We will find a date and time that works for those who RSVP. The class
will meet once, for 2-3 hours.
If you're unemployed, underemployed, bothered by your current job,
already excited to go independent, or just interested in alternative
ways to make a living, this workshop is for you. We'll talk about how
to decide what kind(s) of work to do and how to market and build your
business, how to deal with bookkeeping and legal and tax issues,
health insurance and other benefits available to independent workers,
and how to make your venture sustainable by forming partnerships and
bartering. We'll also talk about how transforming the way we work can
help us to transform our economic systems and our world.
