Teacherafterschooljobs.com is a new job search website that is designed to provide teachers with part-time or seasonal employment, supplementing their current income. It will facilitate the matching of responsible, mature and educated educators with employers seeking their part time or summer employment. While the revenue will come from the employer listing fees, Teacherafterschooljobs.com will have two general customers, the employers as well as the employees in search of the jobs. In addition to having a robust job board on their site, Teacherafterschooljobs.com will also offer tools for the educators, often consisting of a large list of useful hyperlinks. This adds additional functionality to the site, which encourages more traffic.
The Market
It is well-known the educators are dedicated professionals that work at lower wages than the market. For a multitude of reasons, teachers are paid poorly in America. This is why a large number of teachers are seeking supplemental income. As mentioned previously, Teacherafterschooljobs.com will be receiving revenue from the employer listing fees. Targeted markets will include four distinct segments. The first is retail which has an annual growth rate of 50%. Teacherafterschooljobs.com believes there to be 50 potential customers in this segment. Next is the government, which has a 50% growth rate as well as 40 potential customers. Private daycare and camps have a 25% increase rate and can be accessed by 20 customers. Education will be the last segment that is targeted. It has a 10% growth rate with 20 customers.
Competitive Edge
Teacherafterschooljobs.com has a unique pool of prospective employees, all of the employees are professional educators who have skill sets centered on education, professionalism, and the passion and dedication commonly associated with teachers. This is a distinct advantage over other online job boards like Monster and Hotjobs, which have very different cross-sections of job seekers. Employers who post jobs will be attracted to companies that have a strong candidate pool.
Management
Teacherafterschooljobs.com will be developed and run by Patrice and Rosario Cibella. Rosario and Patrice, both of whom have more than a decade experience in education. They were both passionate teachers over many years. But they saw the enormous potential of an internet job board that offers seasonal and part-time opportunities for educators. Patrice was a teacher in the eleventh grade for 12 years in a local school district. Patrice was the head of social studies for four years. Patrice was the department chairperson and honed her management and strategic focus skills. She led the department to being recognized as one the best in the state. Rosario has also a background as an educator, but his role was also administrative. He served as vice principal at his school for six year. Rosario, as vice principal, was directly responsible to the school’s operations. This experience will be directly applied in leading Teacherafterschooljobs.com to become the premier specialized online job board.
Teacherafterschooljobs.com is poised for success by combining a solid business model with a huge market potential and a solid management team. The venture will be profitable in the first month, with modest gross margins in year one and a slight increase in year three. Teacherafterschooljobs.com is forecasted to achieve a minimal gross profit by the end of year three.
