Political carnage set apart, headlines of recent papers and online properties are crammed full with unemployment statistics flaring in blaze alongside bonus cuts. Let us not linger too much on the top CEO’s interminable zeros, as they are equivalent, on average, to 296 employees further down the hierarchical chain of command. Smirking? Do not, it is coming your way. If you will like to find a way to ear more money online and way faster than most normal jobs, go here.
Budget cuts, be it justified or not, will reach each and every organization of this world. The perfect excuse is laid out in the open, these are matters of crisis, and priority is given to survival. First start with reducing headcount, and then reduce your marketing budget. Why spend on marketing and advertising with a media planning agency during crisis? (Kindly read this last sentence on a sarcastic tone).
Still smirking, knowing that you will probably – certainly – not be warranted a bonus this year? Well, it remains advisable to prepare yourself ahead of time and eradicate any potential disappointment. It is either this, or be an adept of unemployment, which is unfortunately, ravaging all industries. This is your opportunity cost, that of your survival.
