The DC Sentinel will help you advertise yourself for $5 a week. Here are some of their suggestions for creating your own job:
If you're good in Math, English, or Spanish, earn money by marketing yourself as a private tutor.
If you're an excellent cook, seamstress or web builder, advertise those skills.
If you're good at personal accounting or filing taxes, people need assistance with those things and will pay you for your help.
If you're good at fixing things around the house, many people need a handyman who is dependable and will charge a fair price.
The Sentinel says, "In these tough economic times, offer your personal skills and invest in yourself! This could be your key to financial success in 2010!"
Remember, it's a good idea to think outside the box. Consider using the skills you have in new and different ways. You may find another job like your former one, but if not, you still have a lot to offer!
The Sentinel reports that it reaches over 10,000 readers a day. To advertise with them (again, they are currently offering an ad for $5 a week), call 770-942-6571.
