Finding Employees For Your Business
Let's say you opened a business right around the corner from your house a few years ago.
Of course you love the neighborhood where you do business and know your neighbors well.
Despite the lagging economy, business is beginning to become more than you can handle alone.
It's a good thing, obviously, but also one that requires a move on your part before you become swamped under by your business.
The time has come for you to hire an employee or employees for your business.
The problem? You're wary of using the online services for this type of a search.
You've heard the stories about the piles upon piles of paper resulting from the hundreds of responses to your fellow business persons' ads on these sites.
Unfortunately, many of them, actually most of them, were unqualified by various standards.
The time spent filtering through these piles of papers can become more cumbersome than keeping up with your business, and not at all profitable.
So, how is a small business owner supposed to find employees for his business without inviting the myriad of paperwork that comes from the online job portals?
Some Chamber's supply a publication for the simple purpose of advertising local job opening and strengthening the community.

- Chamber of Commerce - Contact or join your local Chamber of Commerce if you aren't already a member to help locate local employees or contractors to handle the excess work your business is creating.
You can find contact information for your local Chamber of Commerce online or at your local Small Business Association.
Some Chamber's supply a publication for the simple purpose of advertising local job opening and strengthening the community.
- Word of Mouth - With the unemployment rates still high around the country, many people know someone, or several people, that are out of work and in need of employment.
Use the old-fashioned, but highly reliable, method of word-of-mouth to find the employee you need to help you balance the responsibility and raise the profitability of your business
