I used to go to the ESPNZone in Atlanta all the time. Sundays were off the hook there and the fans used to go bananas up in that place. Sometime ago, I saw the notice that they were closing suddenly and gave a notice to their employees that they would receive a 60 day severance package.
Talk about sudden change especially when you’re not expecting it at all. Here’s what I suggest for all those great employees.
1). Go to the Georgia Department of Labor and file for unemployment immediately.
2). Go to WordPress.com or Blogger.com and setup a free website.
3). Go to Google Affiliate Network, Market Leverage, or Affiliate.com and sign up to market products online.
4). Go to Alexa and start to see what’s hot as topics.
5). Start writing about stuff that’s hot and blending in writing about things you like to write about.
6). Start building a fan base and web traffic. This is going to take a while and will not be immediate.
7). Find out what you love and what’s a passion and write about that everyday.
8). Place ads on your posts whenever you post to increase your ability to sell the ad.
9). Keep doing it and keep writing everyday.
10). Don’t get discouraged. Keep looking for a new project but keep developing your website traffic.
