A NEW ERA FOR RECRUITING

Post all your job vacancies for $10 a year – yes, all of them, for $10 total!

Advertising job vacancies and internships can be very expensive, often costing hundreds of dollars per listing. Online career sites and traditional media charge high fees to post an advertisement and charge by the day, or the week, making it a race against the clock to find the perfect candidate. For a particularly specialist role you may even have to re-post an advertisement several times, pushing the cost up even further.

Well, here at "The SOC Exchange" we’re all about cutting the cost of doing business online and job listings are no exception. We know that times are tough and businesses both large and small are feeling the effects of the current economic crisis, so we believe that our new CAREERS section will help businesses to cut costs. How? Well, you can post as many job listings as you like for just $10 a year, flat rate! No other fees, no commission charges, nothing else. We do not charge extra for making your listing stand out, in fact, you can appear at the top of your state page free of charge, just by being one of the first to re-post your listing each day at 1pm.

We believe that by keeping costs low, providing a superior service and listening to feedback from our members, our site will give you the greatest opportunity for success! It’s as simple as that. No hidden fees or charges, just a case of creating a service that people want, at a price they can afford to pay.

Take a look at the new SOC Exchange Careers section and create your new company site today.

SOC SELLERS – WE WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU!

Why did you start selling online? What’s the first thing you sold? How has your online business changed your life?

I’m often asked, ‘Who are the people behind all these SOC Stores? How did they get started making handmade jewelry or trading antiques? What am I missing out on?’

Over recent months, I’ve spoken to many SOC Sellers and am always interested to hear the reasons you started selling online, as well as your stories and anecdotes about making your first buck, or starting your own business.

Many of you have a story to tell, or advice to share, and here at The SOC Exchange, we’d like to hear from you.

We regularly have opportunities to work with TV stations and newspapers, and journalists are always interested to meet you, the people behind the SOC Stores. They are interested to know why you opened a store, how online selling has helped your business/home life, and what tips you might have for others considering an online store for the first time. And of course, an interview gives you a great opportunity to showcase your store.

So, if you are a SOC Store owner, and would like to share your story, please contact us at:
info@thesocexchange.com - Subject: SOC Stores.
Remember to include your name, store name, and your city/state, and tell us about your store, how you got started and what you love about selling online.
