Loose From The Noose?
It's award season.
That time of year when there's awards for movies, daytime TV, kids' shows, music...
And of course, the traditional business world gives 'em out all the time for every reason imaginable. They refer to them as "non-money motivators". Can you guess why?
There is one sector, one constantly growing industry, that's sorely lacking in awards of any kind. As a matter of fact, I don't think I've ever come across any.
That demographic group with the rapidly increasing presence? Home business people working from...well...home.
I'll skip all the stats about dollars earned and incremental growth much to the chagrin of some stats freaks I know ;) and get right to the point.
I am proud to announce the first and certainly the best award of the home business industry - The "Cut The Corporate Noose" Award
The "Cut The Corporate Noose" award is a beautiful certificate suitable for framing and a not-so-beautiful tie (hence the "corporate noose") expertly cut in half by our highly skilled tie cutters. It is awarded to those who have embarked on a full-time home business after struggling through a lot of blood, sweat and tears - and legal pads, hard drives, disks, printers, car maintenance, etc., etc.
If you or someone you know has achieved this milestone and is now officially a full-time, this-IS-my-living WAHperson, please offer a nomination here. In April the first recipients will be announced. Why NOT you?
