TechBoise Event The Holiday Giving Edition: Wed Dec 17th, Boise, Idaho

Be a part of the solution

Idaho has reached a record number of unemployed http://www.idahostatesman.com/business/story/591880.html . And it’s only going to get worse. We need more jobs, now, and there is no immediate fix.

Every single day I have multiple people ask me if I know of any jobs. I hear about some here and there, but they’re getting fewer and further between. And it’s only going to get worse.

Let me ask you a few questions to help you find a job.

What is the ideal kind of company you would like to work for?

To all my “marketing consultant” friends: What is the ideal kind of company you’d like to market. What would they sell? Who would they sell to? What problems would they solve?

To the engineers: What kind of products does your dream company make? What would your customers think would be the coolest thing about it? How would you make it?

Do you have a picture of the ideal company? Good. Now go start it.

Go read, 6 reasons why this economy is great for startups http://onstartups.com/home/tabid/3339/bid/7559/Start-Now-6-Reasons-Why-This-Economy-Is-Good-For-Startups.aspx . Then come to the Dec 17th TechBoise Holiday event http://techboise.com/techboise-the-holiday-edition-wed-dec-17th/ and mingle with other people looking to be a part of the solution.

Be the solution. Don’t wait for someone else to come and solve your problems, because they’re not coming. They have their own problems.
