October represents the beginning of your best season of the year as a 1099 worker. Your questions: As an independent contractor, are you positioned to offer what the marketplace needs and looks for during this season of the year? How much planning have you done to tee up your possibilities? Basically, any type of product or service can be positioned to fit marketplace needs. The marketplace is simply a bit more receptive as we now head toward the Thanksgiving and Christmas Seasons and the close of one year in preparation for the start of another new year.

The opportunity to benefit from connecting products and services with people requires your outreach and then the sharing of your information and proposition. Our gig economy research consistently indicates that a great percentage of gig workers now work multiple gigs (60%). Is this that time of year to compliment what you are already doing with something else? The gig economy provides you with “ready to start” possibilities more so than most micro entrepreneurial ventures. So many of your underutilized assets can be easily engaged and rewards soon follow delivery of your performance. A few weeks of work during this season often means a few hundred in incremental income, as well as the possibility of a few thousand. No matter what your interest or goal. The newer affiliate versions of many direct selling models require no fees or barriers to entry, engagement is easy, and the choices are many.

This is also a great time of year to market your personal assets in the form of talent, skill, and experience. How can you help someone else do what they cannot get done as effectively by themselves? How can you help others leverage their possibilities during this great season of the year as they also prepare to start another? What is it that you love, that has value to others, that you can share with others, and also generate a benefit for you?
