Jacksonville, FL — With many people newly unemployed amid the coronavirus outbreak, WOKV's Consumer Warrior Clark Howard says there are opportunities out there if you're willing to create a 'micro-business.'
"So many of us have a skill, a hobby, or experience in something that if your old job doesn't look like it's coming back or coming back for a good awhile, there may be an opportunity for you to reinvent yourself at least for with your own web-based business," says Howard.
Howard says what's so exciting about the opportunity to create a 'micro-business' is the chance to pursue something you truly love for a living.
"Know that if the opportunity is not coming the traditional way, at least for now, think about what you offer, what you have, what you can do that might meet a need in the marketplace. Setting up an online business is ultra easy now, and go for it. What do you have to lose? You may find you have a whole new living," says Howard.
