Funny story actually. For the past 10 years, one of the cars I’ve always wanted to own was a 1972 Mazda RX3 or a 1976 Nissan Laurel SGX (Japanese Muscle). I found a lot of them for pretty cheap but the body (on every single one of them) needed major work. It was either damages from collision or body rot, and so on. I thought to myself, The car itself is at least – grand and on top of that, I might need to pay someone a few more grand to repair the body. So I came up with an conclusion: I’m going to get this car regardless but since it’s so old, regardless which one I buy, it’s going to need some bodywork done do it. Since I’m into (but do not know how to) repair and refinish auto body, this might work out perfectly and I can repair the car myself for a fraction of the price. And now:

I’m interested in starting a career as a collision/auto body repairer. I was looking at UTI and WyoTech. I do not know if WyoTech offers training in auto body repair as it did not show anything on thier website but it’s one of the automotive school that’s close by. I, personally, would do the research myself, but it may be extensive and maybe others were in the same situation and had already come up with an resolution.

What I want to know is:

-What are the pro’s and con’s of both? If any?
-Which is more reputable?
-Which is more expensive?
-Which has more hands-on, better quality instructor & training?
-Which assists in job placement?
-What are the duration of each?

I apologize for the many questions but if there’s any UTI or WyoTech graduates or other who knows, please reply and tell me how your experience was. Please try not to be biased as this is really important to me. Which school was better and why? Also if it helps, my location is based out of Sacramento, California. Thanks.

I have no idea how much time it takes to write a blog versus creating, maintaining, and editing it (keeping up with and implementing the latest developments in internet technology and the blogosphere). My friend says he has 10 years of experience with web development and could provide all of the "internet marketing, e-commerce, blogging, search engine optimization, web application development, social networking, social media optimization, graphic design, interface design, copywriting, etc." He proposed splitting the profits from ads, affiliate links, etc. 50/50 and letting me keep 100% of the profits I get from referrals for my private counseling business, but 50/50 feels too high. What do you think is a reasonable percentage split of profits? Would you recommend splitting profits, or having some other business model (flat fee, hourly pay, etc.)? And any suggestions on how to fashion a prearranged buyout agreement in case we decide to split ways in the future so I can retain the site?

I have experience in finance for 3 years. I have my undergraduate degree in business administration and I majored in marketing. I can not get a marketing job for the life of me. I have tried everything from every local marketing company in my city to every search engine possible. How does one get a job in the marketing or advertisment industry when the companies want 10+ years of experience . I need help?
