Teacherafterschooljobs.com is a new job search website that is designed to provide teachers with part-time or seasonal employment, supplementing their current income. The site will be effective in matching educated, mature, responsible educators with employers in need of their part-time or summer assistance. 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 feature adds functionality that encourages visitors to the site and is also valuable for employers who post jobs.

The Market

It is well-known that educators are highly dedicated professionals who work below market wages. For a multitude of reasons, teachers are paid poorly in America. This means that teachers who are looking for supplemental income are in high demand. As mentioned previously, Teacherafterschooljobs.com will be receiving revenue from the employer listing fees. Four market segments will be targeted. Retail has a 50% annual growth rate. Teacherafterschooljobs.com believes there to be 50 potential customers in this segment. The next group includes government with a 50% growth and 40 possible customers. Private daycare or camps can also be targeted with a 25% rate of growth and 20 potential customers. The last segment targeted will be education with a 10% growth rate and 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 distinguishes them from many other online job boards, such as Hotjobs and Monster. There are many job seekers. Employers will find it easier to recruit potential employees if there is a pool of qualified candidates.

Management

Teacherafterschooljobs.com will be developed and run by Patrice and Rosario Cibella. Rosario and Patrice both have more than a decade of experience in the education sector. Both were passionate teachers for many decades. However, they realized the potential of an online job site that offers part-time and seasonal opportunities to educators. Patrice served as a 11th grade teacher in a local area for twelve-years. She was also the department head for social studies in the last four years. Patrice, as the department chairperson, honed both her managerial and strategic focus skills. This enabled the department to be ranked among the top 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 from month one with modest gross margins for year one, increasing slightly by year three. Teacherafterschooljobs.com is forecasted to achieve a minimal gross profit by the end of year three.
