It is difficult to find a new job at any time when age 50+, but even more so now during the pandemic. Every day I hear news about layoffs. Some of my friends are in a healthy position to retire and do not worry about finances; others need their income to make ends meet. A number of brave souls decided to start a business. All are competent smart women who achieved success in the past and believe they can again. Unfortunately, not all kept up with with technology over the years if they did not use it in previous positions. Now that they work for themselves, they need to get up to speed which can be a struggle.

Older adults need training and a supportive community to build a business in 2020. Fortunately, programs such as AARP Foundation’s Work For Yourself@50+ and SCORE offer free webinars and workshops to help prospective entrepreneurs master new skills. More good news – a large number of online small business tools exist to help boost your success and the technology is easy to learn.
