Business Tools, Tips and Resources

Every week I visit dozens if not hundreds of websites depending on my current projects. Here’s a few of the better sites I visited this week that offer advice and business tools to help you succeed:

Here are two articles I enjoyed reading this week published by Inc.com:

I also gave a presentation to the Virginia Career Network. The group assists unemployed professionals network and find new career opportunities. For those interested, I posted the presentation here.
