Okay sure, let’s rip off the bandaid and call it for what it is.
Downturn, slowdown, whatever… a recession is about to set in by all indications.
But does that mean you’ll need to just shut off and just wait it out?
No sir, fortunes are made during tough times too.
For instance:
* Freelancing advice and opportunities as layoffs happen.
* Home cooking recipes as people eat out less.
* Party guides as people go out to party less.
…and so on.
But more specifically, if you’re looking to capitalise on the (in)coming recession instead of waiting it out…
I got some recommendations for you:
