<p>One of the most popular modules of our new Self-Employed Academy (<a href="http://www.SelfEmployedAcademy.com">www.SelfEmployedAcademy.com</a>) is the one that talks about creating multiple streams of income. This module not only shows how to do that but we also talk about the different 'quadrants' of income you need to develop in order to stabilize you income.</p>
<p>Stabilize your income | What does that mean?
What do you do when clients don't want to buy 'services'? It happens. The market tends to be cyclical. When it's down (like now) clients hold onto their money. They want to try to do it themselves. Where does that leave you if you're a service provider?</p>
<p>We're going to show you!
There are experts right here in our own community that are doing fine earning a living by creating multiple income streams. SECP has pulled together a stellar panel who will share with you what they're doing to make it work. They'll give you some real examples of what they're doing and then they'll answer your questions.</p>
<p>Visit our site to check out our panel: <a href="http://www.SECPpdx.com">www.SECPpdx.com</a></p>

<p>Susan Rich has earned a degree in journalism…which led to a career writing for newspapers and magazines. Along the way she joined several major companies, including Boeing and Tektronix. She learned how airplanes fly (and why they crash), and what goes on inside a logic analyzer (it isn’t logical if you’re not an engineer). To that end, Susan managed PR and marketing campaigns, developed materials for product launches, and fought the good fight with Excel. She lost — which only goes to show that she writse better than she can build a spreadsheet. After two decades in the corporate sector, Susan left in 2004 to start her own business… Welcome Susan!</p>

<p>Kaya Singer | Awakening Business Solutions</p>
<p>These days many people want to write “Their book!” It feels like getting something in print is one way to help build your business.
