I thought I would start a thread about helping unemployed foreigners find remote work.
Feel free to share your experiences and ideas on starting businesses and finding work. (Non teaching related.)
One thing my girlfriend and I have been doing with LinkedIn is started a social media marketing business. She has employees in the Philippines and essentially outsources marketing tasks for businesses in UK, Aus, US and Canada.
Feel free to ask questions or post suggestions on other ways to make money online.
I want to also tag some successful entrepreneur (freelance) forumosans: Feel free to share any suggestions @Satellite_TV @jimbob132 @Mataiou
Iāve found most foreigners on here and in person clam up when asked what they do. I figure people donāt want competition in their space. Same on all the other expat sites
Thatās OK. Many people think they know what I do. Then they think I went out of business simply because I moved out of Taipei. They assumed that since IPTV came along I would be out of business. I have been supplying IPTV services since 2008 lol. They still donāt get it that IPTV still relies on satellites as well.

I will check this out. Last time I went to a āforeignerā job fair in Taipei, (which was with you, lol) most of the āforeignersā where from Yilan, or Taoyuan.
If itās a shitty job I would hard pass unless I was starving. Thatās the nice part of having a chunk of savings; you donāt need to accept crap with a smile.
