Cafe FAQ and Nutmeg Business join forces

It has taken a while, but after a few months of analysis I realized that searching for a full time job is something I’ve FELT I should be doing rather than something I WANTED to be doing.  What I really want to do is pursue a dream of building a business from the ground up — when I started doing work as Nutmeg Business Solutions over a decade ago I hoped it would happen, but never felt strong enough to really make it so.  Many people have mentioned that Training and Instructional Design work is ideally suited to the freelancer lifestyle and I sensed they were right;  I just had to find the right path towards that goal.

I realized a few weeks ago the past year has brought the right elements into play.

Working at CallWave I sat across from a dynamic communicator, Barbara Bryn Klare.  She was the Communications Manager and I found myself not only bouncing ideas off of her, but helping her when she needed it.  Not only did we work well together, but I found the work she did was enjoyable, and it fed back into my own training work.  In the months since we were displaced I’ve helped her with a few projects, and we continue to be a dynamic team.

She is starting Cafe FAQ and has asked me to join forces with her.

This opportunity is the moment that makes me feel I could make this dream happen.  In addition, other elements have aligned themselves to give me the space to focus on making this dream work.

The Cafe is open for business — and I know we can get the ball rolling and make a going concern of it.
