No news yet on the business documents being official with the State of Minnesota. I am starting to feel like a kid waiting to unwrap a present only I already know what’s inside.
I think more so it is a sense of excitement of being able to work with a new canvas in the sense of building the new business, of having the new blog debuting in the next couple of weeks, and having a lot of momentum to finish the year off with year.
The last couple of months I have been finishing up some volunteer projects so I can focus on the new business and getting the technology volunteer network up and running. I will still be doing my volunteer work at the U of M but on a much smaller scale, at least for the next few months.
So for those in the Twin Cities you will be seeing some advertising of the new company name and the blog. After all these years I have kept a very low profile and now it is time for me to “be out there” more.
I have had a few inquiries on how I plan functioning as a search firm of one. For starters I do plan on hiring a full time assistant this fall. Someone who can help with phone calls, setting appointments, entering resumes in the database, answering email inquiries, etc.
I also see the need of an intern to help some with the blog, not with writing content but in answering inquiries and referring people on to other resources when appropriate, and with the Online Career Hub web site.
More so than anything I need to be more efficient with my time and energy.
The next and last installment will have some detail on my thoughts on how this practice of one, me, will move forward.
