Runaway Villages

Transitional Housing to Create

a Soft Landing in Paradise

Don’t become a housing horror story

I’ve heard and seen dozens of horror stories of new arrivals who booked a dream apartment online, paying huge deposits in advance, only to discover that the property they were promised is not what was delivered.

Too late they learn that the internet really doesn’t work...or there really isn’t the pool access as promised... or that the location is noisy and congested...or the housing is gloomy or poorly lit...or has no parking...or no closets...or no hot water...is next to a smelly dump…has a double bed instead of a king...or is next to a noisy construction site...or any of a hundred different conditions that destroy the joy of your new home.

Your hassle-free co-living community

Housing in paradise can be wonderful, plentiful, and amazingly affordable. But it can also be challenging, unhappy, frustrating, and overpriced if you don’t find the right home and landlord. It takes a while to fit into the ecosystem of the local market, discover what kind of housing is available in your price range, and find the right location that meets your needs.

We’ve created Runaway Villages to provide transitional housing to meet your needs when you first arrive so you know exactly what to expect, what it will cost, where you will live, and what services and amenities you will receive.

You can stay for a month, 6 months, or practically forever, for an affordable fixed rate, payable in dollars into a US bank account.

And you will meet other like-minded individuals also transitioning to paradise, to create a strong bond of friendship, and experience many fun community activities together.

Each Runaway Village transitional housing community has a unique look and feel, and customized services, based on the geography, layout, physical facilities, and local conditions of each different market.

Runaway Villages changes the way you move to paradise, with the guarantee of a clean, comfortable apartment with lots of services and abundant socialization opportunities with like-minded travelers

New arrivals looking to meet other like-minded adventurers and create a vibrant new lifestyle
Anyone seeking hassle-free housing with no maintenance or worries

The world of work just changed forever.

Even before Covid-19 turned our lives upside down, the job market had shifted dramatically.

It became Global. Online. Impersonal. Ultracompetitive.

Dominated by computer algorithms without personal interaction. Unresponsive. A black hole.

Are you ready to survive - and thrive - in this scary new world?

Now even the old rules have been thrown out, and it's a whole new world out there.

And no one knows what the rules are... or exactly what the future will look like.

So you need to take action NOW to set yourself up for career success by learning the SKILLS needed to find and land your dream job.

Are you ready to:

-- REACT in the face of a job loss?

--SEIZE promotions or transfers when they appear?

--PIVOT to a new career or industry?

--SEIZE new opportunities when they arise?

You may choose - or be forced to - become a freelancer or contract employer to gain meaningful employment..or just to pay the bills.

Or you may need to change your point of view, and set up your own consulting company to weather the storm...and to bypass the human resources department all together to connect directly with the hiring manager as a peer.

Shift has happened. And it's up to you to take action to react and become ready to face an uncertain feature - confident that you have the skills and knowledge to succeed.

The Rules to Job Search Success Have Changed. Do You Know How to Thrive in the New Job Search Market Driven By Computer Algorithms and 7-second Resumes Scans?

The job search market has changed dramatically over the past 10 years, driven by technological transformations that have shifted the process online, and transformed it from local to global.

To manage the exponential influx of hundreds of candidates applying for any given job online, recruiters have automated the process using the ATS Applicant Tracking System, or what I call a Resume Reading Robot, which rejects 75% of all online applications - before a human being sets eyes on them.

Then a recruiter spends just 7.7 seconds quickly scanning and rejecting another 10 - 15% of online applications to get down to a manageable number which can then be reviewed and evaluated for their merits by the HR recruiter.

Unless you know how to navigate this brave new world of digital recruiting, you don't stand a chance of your resume being found and reviewed - which is the first step in landing a job interview.

It's both an art and a science, and one that has to be studied and learned. I am your guide in your journey to navigate the job market to find and land your dream job - at any age or career stage.

It all starts with your resume. Click to learn about the hiring funnel, and the 6 key sections of a powerful new resume.

Click to learn how to create a powerful resume that will sell you in 7 seconds - or less!

I've created a way to help you prepare for all this job transition, to train you quickly, easily, and affordably to become ready to confront the scary new world of work in a post-Covid-19 world.

I've created a whole series of quick, easy, yet comprehensive training courses that you can access anywhere and any time to hone your job acquisition skills.

They will walk you step-by-step through the process of building your personal brand and finding and landing your dream job...and it's all in an easy-to-use multimedia platform featuring videos, eBooks, cheat sheets, worksheets, templates, challenges, and much more.

And the entire suite of all the courses costs less than what you would pay me just to write your resume!
