HireMeAspen discussion boards are up and running!

I'm pleased to announce that our discussion boards are up and running at MeetUp

HireMeAspen is all about YOU, the local worker, so please join in the discussion.  Share your ideas.  What works when it comes to making money in the valley?  What's not working?  What drives you nuts?  How do you deal with awful bosses?  How do you scrimp to get by?  Are you considering ditching your full time job and just doing part time work?  How many side jobs do you have?  Are you ready to take charge of your life and your financial future?

Listen up...the side job is the new 401k!

That's why HireMeAspen wants to share what's working and what's not with the local workforce in the discussion forums at MeetUp.  Please don't just check it out....join in the discussion and contribute to the conversation. 

Your comments matter...your voice counts.   So, discuss...share....brainstorm....and THRIVE!

HireMeAspen.com - Profile Example

In an effort to start getting you fired up about the site, I'm sending another screen shot so you can get a glimpse of what's in store. In just a few weeks, local part-time workers will be able to post a profile to earn extra money on the side. And local hirers will be able to find the perfect worker for the job. 

So here's a preview of what the profiles will look like. I think you'll agree it's a great way to market your services to local hirers.  Some other features include: star rating, availability calendar, join a crew, references, connections, and so much more.   Hope you like it!

What's Our Site All About?

We've all heard the old adage about resort towns: "You either own three homes or you work three jobs." 

Well, HireMeAspen is here to help cross that divide by connecting local hirers with part-time workers.
  • Do you need to make extra money on the side, but just don't know how to spread the word?
  • Do you need a worker to get a job done, but just don't know who to call?
HireMeAspen.com will help.

When a part-time worker posts their profile on HireMeAspen.com, they will have the opportunity to promote themselves in multiple job categories (we have over 150 job categories to choose from), increasing their chances of not only getting hired doing work they love, but earning lots of extra money on the side.

There will be many more bells and whistles and tools and functionality that come with the site, but the main focus is connecting locals.  Other features and benefits include:
  • Hirers can search for free!
  • Workers can post a profile in multiple job categories!
  • Workers can connect with other workers, and even join a crew!
  • Workers can track their jobs!
  • Hirers can rate a worker!
  • Workers can rate a boss!
  • Workers set their fees, and their availability!
  • Hirers can view worker references!
  • Hirers and workers can track their projects!
  • Workers gain access to The Hive and lots of other advantages of being a member!
And we won't stop in Aspen. We'll be launching other Colorado resort town websites in the coming months. 

So stay tuned....there's lots more on the horizon as we start turning on these sites!
