Labor Day specials

Happy Labor Day!
​
It's our 125th anniversary of Labor Day being created as a National Holiday. The first Monday in September is a creation of the labor movement dedicated to the social and economic achievements of American workers. According to the U.S. Department of Labor, constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of our country.

In honor of us workers, I am having a 3-day flash sale of 50% off consultations with me.

These are the 3 consultations that I am highlighting for this 3-day flash sale good through THIS Friday September 6, 2019 11:55 pm Pacific Standard Time. That gives some of you the chance to still get paid/make arrangements after Labor Day for any last minute funds you may need. :)

Featured consultation #1: Receive a review of ONE resume, a 9 question job seeker form that you'd fill out and email to so that I can better assist you at an up to 30 minute phone consultation that we will schedule after I have reviewed your resume and completed job seeker form. At the up to 30 minute phone consultation, we will discuss my recommendations on improving your resume, price quote(s) and recommendations based on what you filled out in the job seeker form. We will have the opportunity to ask each other questions (I ask clients to type up any other question(s) they may have outside of what I ask on the job seeker form, if applicable) so I can prepare my recommendations at the consultation. All regularly a $60 value ($62.55 with debit/credit card processing fee that I don't benefit from) on sale through Friday, Sept. 6, 2019 11:55 pm PST for $31.30 (50% discount)!
Consultation terms & conditions apply to all 3 consultations listed in this newsletter: Any consultation lasting less than 30 minutes, no reimbursements and any consultation lasting over 30 minutes will be billed at a rate of $2 per minute and be due upon the completion of the phone call. The debit/credit card processing fee will occur as well so, for example, if the call went over by 40 minutes, that is $80 & with the debit/credit card processing fee that I don't benefit from it would be $83.35 (it's a 4% plus .15 cent charge). You would provide your card information over the phone with me so that I could process your charge. If you prefer to pre-purchase your minutes now, I have them in increments of:
5 minutes for $10.55 with debit/credit card processing fee that I don't benefit from,
10 minutes for $20.95 with debit/credit card processing fee that I don't benefit from,
20 minutes for $41.75 with debit/credit card processing fee that I don't benefit from,
&
30 minutes for $62.55 with debit/credit card processing fee that I don't benefit from

**When purchasing from my newsletter with the purple "Buy Now" buttons, I NEVER see your card information, just your name and the amount you pay for.**Extra minutes do not expire, the date to use these consultations do expire one year from the date purchased. Limit one different type of consultation per person (i.e. this career/resume one for one person, but you can buy multiple of the same consultation to gift to others), but the same expirations apply. No refunds.**

**IF YOU WERE ON MY NEWSLETTER, THERE'D BE A PURPLE "BUY NOW" BUTTON HERE & YOU'D BE ABLE TO CLICK IT, HOWEVER, HERE IS THE LINK TO THAT NEWSLETTER SO YOU CAN: https://conta.cc/32tnh21**

Featured consultation #2: Review of one LinkedIn profile and a 4 question LinkedIn form that I have the client fill out PRIOR to setting the up to 30 minute phone consultation to discuss my recommendations on improving your LinkedIn profile (should you decide to hire me), along with my recommendations, including price quote(s) based on what you filled out in the 4 question LinkedIn form. The opportunity to answer more questions that hopefully you wrote down on your 4 question LinkedIn form you filled out can take place during this consultation as well. All normally a $60 value ($62.55 with debit/credit card processing fee that I don't benefit from) on sale through Friday, Sept. 6, 2019 11:55 pm PST for $31.30 (50% discount)!
The same consultation terms and conditions apply along with the same expirations and no refunds apply.

Featured consultation #3: Need help with a writing, editing, or marketing project outside of LinkedIn or career help? Fill out an 11 question writing, editing, and marketing form so that I can better assist you with your needs and you can describe your project in further detail. Plus, me reviewing your project (i.e. a website, book, or other document) you're requesting the assistance with so that at the up to 30 minute phone consultation I will be able to provide you with the best price quote(s) and recommendation(s) based on the form you fill out and me reviewing your project prior. All normally $75 ($78.15 with credit/debit card processing fee I don't benefit from).

Odd Jobs Aug. 27th game networking night & giveaways is canceled.

8/27/2019

0 Comments

 

The practice marketing yourself for "Odd Jobs" event game networking night TONIGHT and giveaways is CANCELED.

I've never had to cancel an event before unless I was really sick. This was because of lack of commitments. I would've done this specific event (not saying these are my rules for other events) IF I would've had AT LEAST 3 other people besides me, but couldn't make it work.

I plan to put a sign up on the bowling alley door (in case someone I don't know didn't get the message) and shows up. I've already canceled the events on my 3 meetup pages, emailed the News Tribune events calendar staff to please remove my event, deleted it off Eventbrite, deleted it off eventsi, and am now sending it on Facebook and LinkedIn. I will put it on my blog on my website as well which is: http://www.worksolutionstoday.com/blog as well.

Please do NOT expect events from me in the summer months (September is included in that since it's still summer most of that month) since SO MANY people go on vacations and are BUSIER than normal, plus Labor Day weekend is this weekend (didn't realize that when I planned this event TONIGHT AND the Washington State Fair starts THIS Friday).

December is another month for NO events since it's such a crazy month for everyone it doesn't matter if you celebrate Christmas, Hanukkah, or Kwanza the whole month MANY people are focused on their holiday shindigs, getting their home ready for the holidays, etc., having family come from out of town, getting ready for the holidays, (New Year's is right after whatever ONE of those holidays you celebrate as well, etc).

Thank you!

MY NEXT EVENT: Calling all job seekers, career changers, business owners, or JUST ANYONE (except young kids) who want to have a fun night off to play the hilarious game of "Odd Jobs Help Wanted: Apply Within" Practice marketing yourself for up to 200 business cards and 180 jobs to convince the client (the people playing with you) to hire YOU for the job. Game is for 4 OR more players.

Join me on Tuesday, August 27, 2019 at 6 pm to 8 pm in the upstairs room of the Daffodil Bowling alley located at: 1624 E. Main Street, Puyallup, WA 98372. We will start promptly at 6 pm with me introducing myself, the agenda for the evening, one minute intros of the attendees, the opportunity to pass out business cards & flyers & make quick announcements in your business/community events you may have, then giveaways will take place. (We will draw from your business cards thrown in a container (be sure to bring your business cards) and let people pick their prizes. **If you don't have a business card, take someone else's card and put your contact info on the back of their card if they don't have a double-sided card.** Then we will dive right into the game. We will end no later than 7:45 pm to determine who the winner is and then pack up, and be out by 8 pm at the latest.**IF YOU ARE SICK OF ANY KIND, please do NOT come to the event (regardless if you think it's a minor cold, flu, etc). I repeat it's no joking matter you can spread symptoms to others that are way worse, please stay home.**


Admission to this fun, educational, game to play which allows you to utilize and practice your marketing/selling skills useful in your career/life, networking, including the giveaways mentioned above, along with a portion going to the hourly room rental, it is $52.15 per person with a debit/credit card by TOMORROW, Sunday, August 25, 2019 at 5:30 pm. DISCOUNT DEAL: $44.87 with a debit/credit purchase for per person (for you and your guest) by TOMORROW, Sunday, August 25, 2019 at 5:30 pm.
You'd click the "Buy Now" purple button at the bottom of this newsletter & pay with a credit card or debit card and I do NOT see your card information. No refunds under any circumstances (if event is cancelled, you will be credited for a future event or service).

**VERY IMPORTANT WHEN PAYING FOR YOUR TICKET: You have to select "**AFTER FRI. 8-23 AT 6 PM LATE RSVP ODD JOBS**" It's the second one in the registration list. I called tech support for my newsletter company and that cannot be changed since tickets have already been purchased.

If you are bringing a guest and getting the discount deal, it's the FIRST option on the list and please make sure to put your quantity for yourself and your guest.

Also, if you need more reasons to come to my event:
  • (1.) August 25 - August 31 is "Be Kind to Humankind Week"according to Women's World Magazine Issue August 26, 2019. Share your caring heart with friends, family, even strangers this week! I had did the following "thoughtful" things yesterday alone NOT even because of this special week. I had texted an article to a colleague of mine about lowering your heart attack risk by 60% since she mentioned she recently found out from her doctor that she is having heart problems, sent it to my dad as well who has survived a heart attack once before, texted a coupon for a colleague an up to 20% off coupon for McLendon Hardware Home Services for her to get professional installations since she is remodeling her home, AND dropped off ONE big container out of a pack of 2 that come at Costco for this really good Tapioca to my mom's house. Since she wasn't home (yes, I called beforehand), I went to Safeway and bought a reusable grocery bag and filled it with a bag of ice and put her tapioca big container in there so it wouldn't spoil until she got home. She definitely appreciated the nice gesture. My point? Will you be kind to me and attend my event and/or bring/send other(s)? What will be your kind gestures to others this week.

  • (2.) Tuesday, August 27, 2019 is "Treat Yourself Day" "Just Because" according to Women's World Magazine Issue August 26, 2019. (That is also the same day as my event!) :) Basically they did a study and choosers vs those who window shopped were three times happier since they felt in more control. Researcher Scott Rick, Ph.D., "The choices involved in shopping help to restore feelings of control over one's life, which can improve mood." My point? You wouldn't be window shopping if you attended my event! :) Why don't you treat yourself and/or someone else and come to my event?

  • (3.) I received an email newsletter from Telefora informing me that the same day as my event is women's equality holiday! They are offering 20% off flower bouquets as a result and were promoting to give recognition to a strong female role model in your life with an eye-catching bouquet from Teleflora, always handcrafted, always hand delivered. My point: I am a woman business owner and by attending my event and having others attend, helps support my business as well. :)

  • (4.) It would be too much to share how much time I've invested working on this event daily and promoting it and trying to make it work since I don't want to have to cancel it (I will have to tomorrow, Sunday, August 25, 2019 no later than 5:30 pm if I don't have commitments with attendees purchasing their tickets). I've never had to cancel an event before (unless I was really sick), but in this case it would be because of lack of commitments before the event. I will have to try and get a refund for the hourly room rental. It will be the fact of missing out on playing this fun game, giving these giveaways away, having fun, and meeting new/old people (new to me or old as in known for awhile) that bothers me the most not thecountless hours, the $29 2-day other online event promotional ad I worked on last night at midnight as "an extra" way to promote outside of everything else I do daily to promote it (flyers, cold calls, online, etc., etc.). I can't have people waiting to commit until the last minute and risk the chance of receiving NO SHOWS. I had even extended the early bird deadline to midnight last night as one of many attempts as well. Summer has really been rough with so many people on vacations and busier with other obligations (it reminds me of the month of December) where it's another very busy time for people and attendance is lower.

  • (5.) Don't you want to meet others? Network your business? Have fun? Practice and utilize your marketing skills? Get great giveaways to keep for yourself and/or give others? Support a business and good cause?

The PAYDAY game networking night (July 30, 2019) pictured above was a blast! The person with the most money in the end wins (I had won the game with $32,600 cash), Peter was second place with a figure in the $27,000 range and Robert placed third with $24,000 range of cash on hand). The sushi or chicken teriyaki game night was also a blast! I had won the 4 games we played of "Befuddled" (word game similar to Scrabble), so rest assured I am good with words. I did win my third grade spelling bee! :)

June's Featured business services

6/11/2019

June's 3 Featured Business Services that you can buy with a click of a button securely WITHOUT having to call, text, or email!

FEATURED BUSINESS SERVICE #1: Need an article or blog written for your business or in general (i.e. a newspaper or other publication or profile on a person)?

Purchase a 700 to 900 word article (approximately 2 -3.5 pages in Microsoft Word using "Candara" font type and size 14). This includes me performing the research or interview necessary to write the article along with two sets of edits prior to the final article. "Two sets of edits" is defined as you look at the first draft of the article that I submit to you via email and if there are corrections to make, I will make them and provide them to you in the next draft of the article. If there is still anything else that you want changed (edits wise), I will make them and provide to you and that will be the final draft. You are then free to purchase more edits from me (I will provide you an estimate before I proceed with making them) if you still want additional edits. Please note, that you are free to then post this article on your website, etc. but I would still have credit as me as the author wherever it's published.

It's $130.15 (that includes credit card/debit card processing fees that I don't benefit from). Again you'd CLICK THE LINK HERE: https://conta.cc/2R91Rmw and I do NOT see your card information. ***If you want to make other arrangements to make the payment via cash, check, or money order, you'd have to mail to: Carly Calabrese 18807 97th Avenue Court East Puyallup, WA 98375 and checks can be made out to: "Carly Calabrese" as well the amount would be $125 with NO debit/credit card processing fees and the same terms and conditions would apply if purchasing this way.***

This offer doesn't expire once you purchase it to use it, however, the deadline to purchase it is Sunday, June 30, 2019 at 11:55 pm PST (Pacific Standard Time) and you can purchase for yourself or someone else. No refunds under any circumstances.

FEATURED BUSINESS SERVICE #2: Need a business plan? Whether you've been in business for many years or are just starting out, you need one to keep you align with what's in your mind. As Benjamin Franklin once said, "If you fail to plan, you plan to fail!" I will compile, write/edit, and assist with research, an up to 27-page business plan which will include: a cover page with your picture, business name, and other contact information, a table of contents, an executive summary, the marketing plan which consists of: the industry overview, competitive analysis, target markets, your marketing activities, pricing of your products & services, management plan, management team, external resources, advisory board, compensation, financial plan, financial overview, funding resources, and your resume and testimonials. 

Please note that a resume is not included in this price quote so if you don't have a resume or need an updated one, we can discuss a resume price (they range based on experience level) and is a required piece of your business plan. Your testimonials I do not write for you, you would provide to me to compile into your business plan (i.e. if you've been hired from websites where people have written reviews you can take them from there) or start asking for people who have hired you to write some. Please note that the research to gather information such as your industry overview and competitive analysis is not found just using Google, but other proprietary resources and websites that I can help you with. Also, I do not set your prices or come up with ways to market your business (you can hire me for marketing consultation(s) if you need help determining how to market your business).

This business plan is $2,808.15 and that includes debit/credit card processing fees that I don't benefit from. Again you'd click you'd CLICK THE LINK HERE: https://conta.cc/2R91Rmw and I do NOT see your card information. ***If you want to make other arrangements to make the payment via cash, check, or money order, you'd have to mail to: Carly Calabrese 18807 97th Avenue Court East Puyallup, WA 98375 and checks can be made out to: "Carly Calabrese" as well the amount would be $2700 with no debit/credit card processing fees and the same terms and conditions would apply if purchasing this way.***

This offer doesn't expire once you purchase it to use it, however the deadline to purchase this offer is Sunday, June 30, 2019 at 11:55 pm PST (Pacific Standard Time) and you can purchase for yourself or someone else. No refunds under any circumstances.

FEATURED BUSINESS SERVICE #3: Need a letter of recommendation for a job, scholarship, volunteer position, etc? You know you're awesome, but if you want to stand out (actually be considered for jobs, volunteer positions, scholarships you're applying for you NEED to have letters of recommendation, the more the better). You NEED other people to discuss your strengths and how great you are. As always, it's not just about quantity, but quality AND quantity. :) A great resume, cover letter, LinkedIn profile, & having a persistent, professional, and great personality are NOT enough. Following up after applying is NOT enough.

If you're having problems getting quality letters of recommendation, getting one in general, or want to have an AWESOME one in addition to the others you already have, this would be perfect for you or someone else.

I will interview you, write the letter, and provide you with 2 sets of edits prior to the final letter of recommendation for you. "Two sets of edits" is defined as you look at the first draft of the letter that I submit to you via email and if there are corrections to make, I will make them and provide them to you in the next draft of the letter. If there is still anything else that you want changed (edits wise), I will make them and provide to you and that will be the final draft. You are then free to purchase more edits from me (I will provide you an estimate before I proceed with making them) if you still want additional edits.

Please note if I've never met you before and you need a letter of recommendation, it's an additional $105 charge for me to meet you in person at a time that we schedule for 60 minutes in which I can provide you some general conversational questions I will ask to get to know you as a person (this will be outside of the actual interview for the letter of recommendation) and can email them to you prior to the in-person meeting. We'd meet at the either the inside far right front of the Fred Meyer store next at the tables and chairs next to the INSIDE Starbucks stand located at: 17404 Meridian East Puyallup, WA 98375 OR at the South Hill Pierce County Library located at: 15420 Meridian E, Puyallup, WA 98375 and in the $105 charge that includes my travel fee to either of those places besides my time. If you'd be paying with a debit/credit card (which is THE LINK HERE: https://conta.cc/2R91Rmw, you'd add $109.35 because that's what the $105 charge is with credit/debit card processing fees I don't benefit from as well as the $141.59 charge below). If you do NOT want to pay debit/credit card, you can send the check, money order, or cash to me in the amount of $105 besides the $136 letter of recommendation rate below.

The letter of recommendation is $141.59 and that includes debit/credit card processing fees that I don't benefit from. Again you'd click you'd CLICK THE LINK HERE: https://conta.cc/2R91Rmw and I do NOT see your card information. ***If you want to make other arrangements to make the payment via cash, check, or money order, you'd have to mail to: Carly Calabrese 18807 97th Avenue Court East Puyallup, WA 98375 and checks can be made out to: "Carly Calabrese" as well the amount would be $136 with no debit/credit card processing fees and the same terms and conditions would apply if purchasing this way.***

Greetings!

I wanted to thank you for your support with my handmade felt roses that I did for Mother's Day just for fun. I sold 49. I have 5 red roses (pictured below) leftover for anyone who is still interested. Again, they are rose scented with rose oil and are $5 each. $5.35 each if paying with debit/credit card (that's the processing fee that I don't benefit from). Be sure to scroll below the two rose pictures to see 3 featured business services this month that you can purchase with the click of a button literally click the button that reads "Buy Now" to purchase these 3 featured business services and the roses.
​

MAY'S FEATURED BUSINESS SERVICES AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE WITHOUT EVEN HAVING TO CALL/TEXT/OR EMAIL!

Featured Business Service #1: Need your resume reviewed, resume help, and potentially other career help? Some examples of career help: cover letter assistance, help determining what career path to take, LinkedIn assistance, job leads, interview question practice, and other employment paperwork (i.e. letters of recommendation and reference listings).

Purchase a 30 minute phone consultation in which we will discuss your one resume that I will have reviewed and proposed my recommendations for we will also discuss your job seeker questionnaire which I have you fill out prior to the consultation which consists of 9 questions so I can get a better idea of your career needs so that at the consultation I can provide you price quote(s) and we can both ask and answer any questions (if we feel we are a good fit, we can proceed in the next step with working with each other). If not, you'll have a better idea of what you need and recommendations on how to improve your resume.

It's $78.15 to purchase the 30 minute consultation described above as well as your one resume review & job seeker form now (that includes credit card/debit card processing fees that I don't benefit from). ****THE LINK BELOW IS HOW YOU CAN ACCESS THE PURPLE "BUY NOW" BUTTON AT THE BOTTOM OF MY NEWSLETTER LINK: https://conta.cc/2I56MAA****

This offer doesn't expire once you purchase it to use it, however, the deadline to purchase it is THIS Friday, May 31st at 11:55 pm PST (Pacific Standard Time) and you can purchase for yourself or someone else. Please note that if more time is needed than 30 minutes, you will be billed at a rate of $2 per minute and that will be due upon the completion of the call. Credit card processing fee will apply, so an additional 10 minutes for example is $20 and with credit card processing fee it'd be $20.95.

Featured Business Service #2: Should you start a business? This is a 25 question test with simply answering with a "Yes" or "No" response. Many people who are unsure whether or not if they should start a business should take this test. Even though there's no guaranteed success formula for making someone a successful entrepreneur, there are certain characteristics and personality traits. This quiz will help you evaluate whether starting a business fits well with your personality and skills. Use it to explore your “business fitness,” but remember it is just a rough guide. Most successful entrepreneurs have weaknesses or gaps in one or more areas—the trick is to recognize these gaps early and either acquire those skills or work with other people who can fill them.

This test is $91.59 and that includes tax & debit/credit card processing fees that I don't benefit from. The test also includes a 10 minute follow up de-brief phone call (if you want to ask questions/discuss further) if more than 10 minutes is needed, you will be billed at a rate of $2 per minute and that will be due upon the completion of the phone call. I'd advise skipping the follow up phone call if you have no intentions of putting the time as 10 minutes isn't long to go over the results. Even if you email me your questions you'd like to discuss before the phone call, it's a waste of my time to prepare my recommendations if you're not willing to go over the 10 minutes to get my expert opinion. This offer doesn't expire once you purchase it to use it, however the deadline to purchase this offer is THIS Friday, May 31st at 11:55 pm PST (Pacific Standard Time) and you can purchase for yourself or someone else. ****THE LINK BELOW IS HOW YOU CAN ACCESS THE PURPLE "BUY NOW" BUTTON AT THE BOTTOM OF MY NEWSLETTER LINK: https://conta.cc/2I56MAA****

Featured Business Service #3: Should you be an entrepreneur? This test is a 20 question test with each question being a statement that you either select "Yes" or "No" to. You may know business owners yourself. Heck, even former President Obama is talking about doing it. There are strong internal drivers that compel people to create their own business. Be honest with yourself when taking this test — remember the worst lies are the ones we tell ourselves.

This test is $85.88 and that includes tax & debit/credit card processing fees that I don't benefit from. The test also includes a 10 minute follow up de-brief phone call (if you want to ask questions/discuss further) if more than 10 minutes is needed, you will be billed at a rate of $2 per minute and that will be due upon the completion of the phone call. I'd advise skipping the follow up phone call if you have no intentions of putting the time as 10 minutes isn't long to go over the results. Even if you email me your questions you'd like to discuss before the phone call, it's a waste of my time to prepare my recommendations if you're not willing to go over the 10 minutes to get my expert opinion. This offer doesn't expire once you purchase it, however the deadline to purchase this offer is THIS Friday, May 31st at 11:55 pm PST (Pacific Standard Time) and you can purchase for yourself or someone else.

These are the roses she wants for Mother's Day...

Greetings!

As many may know, Mother's Day is THIS Sunday (5 days away). Whether you have a mother or not, that special woman/women in your life you should celebrate (even if they aren't mothers). A big Christian church downtown Puyallup I had attended, the preacher had said that we are supposed to celebrate women on Mother's Day (even if they are not actual mothers).

I have made NEW and IMPROVED handmade felt roses than the ones I made years ago. These are rose scented with rose oil, they have nice bright colored green sturdy stems, and I have new dark pink colored roses with a hint of sparkle (glitter) built into the felt (which years ago I never did another color than red).

They are for sale for $5 each if paying with U.S. cash, check, or money order, and $5.35 each if paying with a debit/credit card (that includes the debit card processing fee I don't benefit from).

These make great Mother's Day gifts as they won't wilt, make a mess, don't need to be watered, stay looking beautiful year round for the years to come, and don't look like tacky cheap plastic flowers that can be bought at Walmart.

Again, a rose/roses can be given to not just mothers, but lovers, brothers, family, friends, colleagues, neighbors, etc "just because".

You can see the pictures below in this newsletter.

I am taking pre-orders now meaning you will make payment to me to secure your rose/roses as I am meeting with a spa owner within less than an hour who is interested in them along with 2 networking groups I will have them available for sale at tomorrow, Wednesday, 5/8 that you can come to (even if you don't want to stay for the networking meeting).

Three opportunities you can meet me in person to pick up your roses:
  1. Tomorrow, Wednesday, May 8th 2 pm to 4 pm free women's networking meeting at the back meeting room of the Red Elm Cafe located at: 1114 M.L.K. Jr Way, Tacoma, WA 98405. Coordinate in advance with me if you don't want to miss me.
  2. Tomorrow, Wednesday, May 8th 6 pm at the networking group at the Poodle Dog restaurant located at: 1522 54th Ave E, Fife, WA 98424. Judson Forks, owner of Simple Upgrade Computers (a computer support technician and security business owner) will be speaking a half hour about security. His advertisement said the meeting goes until 9 pm, and I won't be staying there that long, so coordinate with me in ADVANCE if you plan to meet me there to pick up your rose(s) and how many.
  3. THIS Saturday, May 11th from 11 am to 4:45 pm I will be at the Costco located at: 1201 39th Ave SW, Puyallup, WA 98373 with my last day of my temporary contract selling Fitbit watches. Again, coordinate with me in ADVANCE if you plan to pick up your rose(s) then so that you can find me, don't catch me when I am at lunch, and/or we don't miss each other.

If none of those dates/times work for you, be sure to contact me as soon as possible so that we can coordinate another arrangement for your rose(s). Thank you! Happy Mother's Day!
