I am working on updating the compiled list of subcontract opportunities in the "Making Money as a Resume Subcontractor" special report. If you are an individual or firm that hires subcontract writers and want your listing included in the report, please e-mail me (rwdigest@aol.com).
Also -- a reminder that my Subcontractor Survey is still open. If you are a resume writer who subcontract writes, please take the survey! (Because this blog is accessible to the public, you need to e-mail me to get the link to the survey -- I won't be posting it directly on here.)

Fake Career Associations
Well, I'm updating the Resume Writers' Digest database again, and my search for some of the careers professionals that have moved or left the business continues.
Along the way, I have come across some interesting things -- like a couple of associations for resume writers and career professionals which -- according to my research -- simply don't exist. Yet they issue membership certificates and apparently award a "Certified Professional Resume Writer" credential.
A search for "National Association of Career Professionals" on Google came up empty.
Likewise, a search for the "International Association of Professional Resume Writers" turned up no matches.
There are plenty of legitimate professional associations serving the careers industry out there, like:
You'll find all of those associations using Google.

Custom Printed Business Cards
When I first started my business more than 10 years ago, I used PaperDirect papers for my business cards, letterhead and envelopes. Even today, I still do short-run promotions using their colorful products. Recently, I learned PaperDirect offers custom printing on their designs (no more hand-feeding business card sheets through my printer!)
