Unemployed Create Online Careers
Many recently laid-off and unemployed people want to transition to make an income online. It can be done. It takes a good sense of figuring out what people need, and fulfilling that need. (it also takes luck & hard work)Pat Flynn Unemployed Architect
Pat Flynn lost his job as an 
architect. Instead of panickying he decided to start an online internet business. His blog was originally set up as a website to store his notes while studying a special type of architecture qualification called the LEED exam.
He started studying for the exam in December of 2007, but soon noticed that the information heI needed to know was pretty dense and not easy to understand. It needed organization, charts and helpful tips from others. Nothing of that sort really existed for LEED on the Internet, so he figured he’d do it myself.
Ebook Earns Him $203,219
The blog started receiving lots of traffic because of his LEED notes. He created an ebook on how to pass the exam, by compiling his blog posts together. He earned $8,000 in his first month. After just one year of running his online business he has made $203,219.04. (wow!)
his website: http://www.greenexamacademy.com
Yes, that website is very helpful, but it cannot take the place of an actual LEED exam training course. Everblue Training Institute provides its students with all the information they need to pass the exam.
