It may be one of the “Best Kept” Secrets

Would you like to help people find work, more money, or better yet, their calling in life? Starting a resume writing business will let you do just that.

According to one interactive Wall Street Journal Poll - 60% of the US working population is considering a job or career change.

And as of October last year, there were 8.1 million unemployed people in the United States!

What do most of these people have in common?

They need an effective, professionally produced resume to give them an edge in an increasingly competitive job market.

If you want to start a resume business, it will give you a chance to help people articulate their skills.  Think about it.  Most people can describe their friends, but when it comes to describing their skills in a coherent logical manner, they fall down.

You can help them discover, and put it all together so that the resume helps them sell themselves. You can help them become more marketable.

But why would anyone need someone else to write a resume?

A majority of job-seekers prefer not to write their own resume. Another poll showed that 79% of job seekers who wrote their own resume are not happy with it.

The reason is simple.

It takes certain skills and knowledge. These can be learned.

Meaning you can make a lot of money if you learn those skills.

Valuable Skills/Requirements

You'll need to learn and understand what makes a resume powerful and stand out from the rest. There are certainly effective ways to write copy.

It's very helpful to own and know how to use a word processing program. A basic dial-up connection is a necessity since a majority of resumes will be emailed to prospective employers.

How much can you make?

According to Terry Vaught of the The New and Expanded Lazy Writers Quick & Easy Money Program, you can easily make $95 for only forty-five minutes of your time.

Other people may make in the $30,000 a year range -- often only working part time. There are others making well over $100,000 a year, full-time.
