FREE copy of “How To Be Useful”! Be one of the first to own this witty and wonderfully "USEFULL" book! There’s a lot of career advice out there—much of it dumb. What if someone bit the bullet and read all the advice books—over a hundred years’ worth—and put all the good ideas in one place? Come join Professionals In The City in celebrating Megan Hustad’s new book -- an utterly fresh take on "success literature," and a delightfully original, unerringly hip, yet marvelously practical dismantling of the conventional wisdom when it comes to "getting ahead." A former book editor and bookstore manager, Megan wanted to find a way to bring good career advice to those who would NEVER pick up a tome like "The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People" -- and she's essentially done the work for us, reading and culling advice from a century's worth of "success literature" so that we don't have to! Megan has been published in the New York Times and will be spotlighted in the May issue of "Glamour" Magazine. Self-help success books and seminars are often useful in helping young professionals launch their careers and keep their own goal-oriented motivation flowing. The problem is that there are so many of these advice books and programs! Which one will work for you? Can you spare the time to read all these books and attend numerous seminars? What if you found just one book and speaker that has done all the research for you and compiled it into one single, enormously meaningful book and speaking engagement? Professionals in the City invites you to exactly that! One book, one speaker, and a multitude of wisdom and experience to help you reach your career goals! How to Be Useful: A Beginner's Guide to Not Hating Work by expert Megan Hustad has in all; if you want to watch your career soar, this is a must-attend program for you. Scheduled for release in May, Megan's book provides the perfect, essential solutions for making your career thrive! You can also catch an interview with Megan in the May issue of Glamour magazine. Imagine the most sage wisdom of all the truly effective motivators concisely gathered into just one book that debunks the dated, unhelpful advice of other so-called expert motivators. How to Be Useful marks a new beginning for young professionals in any field that want to be successful at what they do without endlessly culling the great advice and dumping the "ho hum" theories that really don't help in the long run. Megan's refreshing new book combines a witty, wandering tour of "success literature" with contemporary real examples of today's young professionals. She answers the questions of what doesn't work, why, and what will work for you to meet your career goals. Success is never accidental; Megan will help you take a modern ambitious approach that will get you noticed and enhance everything you want from your job. Forget what you thought you knew about success; you'll find Megan's book to be original, insightful, and a savvy handbook for the new generation of professionals! After speaking about what she's learned about successful career-making as a book editor, Megan will answer all your questions about taking the path in life that will get you where you want to go. Best of all, her book you will receive a copy of the book upon attending! After hearing Megan's fresh approach, you'll no doubt want to learn even more!

The Irish Jewelry Company Peaceful Cottage- A Place to Always Call Home New York, NY–January, 2008 – In January, The Irish Jewelry Company announced that they have joyfully acquired Peaceful Cottage, located in the West of Ireland. Peaceful Cottage will be offered as a self-catering cottage rental through their web site this summer. Peaceful Cottage has been owned by their family since it was originally purchased in the 70’s by the owner’s father. Modernized in the late 80’s it was originally a thatched roof cottage that dated back to pre-famine Ireland. The pre-famine stone wall still surrounds the property today. Recently in the past few years growing costs of maintenance for the cottage had been the center of much family debate for years. So in a valiant effort to preserve their parent’s legacy and to pass on Irish history and tradition to future generations two brothers decided to purchase Peaceful Cottage in 2005. But when faced with a weak US dollar, increasing property prices in Ireland and the ever soaring oil prices, costs to maintain the property still remained an issue. Their dream seemed impossible. Until, The Irish Jewelry Company was born in 2006, the brain child of one of the brothers and his wife. Both of whom had prosperous careers in the jewelry industry in manufacturing, marketing and jewelry design. The Irish Jewelry Company was originally envisioned as way to sell Irish products and jewelry to help support the cottage and as a vehicle to rent it as a self-catering cottage one day. Today The Irish Jewelry Company is a thriving business all of its own, selling imported Irish jewelry and gifts inspired by their love of ancient Celtic symbolism and centuries old traditions. The Irish Jewelry Company is a business born from a dream of finding the means to preserve the memory of ones beloved parents and saving the family home in Ireland. A true Irish Blessing in disguise. Peaceful Cottage has been transformed into a place where Irish Americans families can stay and experience their own Irish heritage. It’s an affordable place for families to stay while they explore the Ireland they’ve heard so many stories about.
