Opportunity for Unemployed School Teachers Caught in the Cross Fire

April 20, 2010 - PRLog -- Less than one month ago 21,905 pink slips were handed out to teachers all over the state of California. Although all of the teachers with slips aren’t likely to be laid off, at least 50 percent of them will be entering the unemployment statistics before the end of the year.

Last year, 26,000 teachers were given the same treatment, and ultimately 60 percent of them were terminated before the end of the fiscal year. The decision is ultimately left up to next year’s budgetary restrictions. Many teachers are holding their breath and rallying not only for their jobs, but for the welfare of our children.

For every thousand newly unemployed teachers, New Jersey will lose $60,000,000 in taxable state income, plus the collateral jobs and business activity such income creates in the private sector when it is spent..

A review of California.teachers.net’s chat board for example, reveals the concern and fear in the hearts of teachers all over the state. One poster comments, “I received my pink slip recently and it's very scary… but maybe we can support each other.”

Catching wind of the current crisis, a San Jose, CA business is offering support of a different kind. The American Consumer Financial Network (ACFN) is an ATM business that offers individuals from all walks of life the opportunity to own and operate their own business.

For a reasonable fee, new business owners receive training, and the backing of an experienced group of marketing and sales people to get a boost into the business world.

The world of ATM franchises is a small but profitable one and teachers are no strangers in the ranks of ACFN’s top earners. In fact, the highest grossing machine in the ACFN ATM network belongs to a retired California public school teacher.

With the economic downturn, ACFN has kept their franchise fee's cost effective, to accommodate those who are in search of a way to increase their nest egg as they plan for the future.

President and Founder Jeff Kerr says that his business offers teachers countrywide the opportunity to weather the storm, “As a resident of California’s Silicon Valley since 1985 and a father of 4, I am invested in the welfare of the state’s children, as well as the welfare of the people we turn our children over to for the day. Teachers do very important work and traditionally are not well compensated. They do however have a relatively flexible schedule which allows them to develop a business to supplement their income. ACFN can be a great venue for teachers to become entrepreneurs.”

Kerr urges teachers to explore the options ACFN has to offer. They might find a long term answer to their problem, and with it, the tools to build a successful business.

Franchise Fee's are reasonably priced and start at $25,000

The company also provides a comprehensive  training program at their headquarters in San Jose, California and the best ongoing customer service that can only be described as second to none.
