I would like to set up a job fair in my area for home based businesses.
I have lots of friends in other businesses that might also want to set up a recruiting booth. Has anyone else ever done anything like this?
 
No, but that is an awesome idea, considering how many people are being laid off.
 
I would say if you have a o local chamber of commerce to call them and try to set up a place for a group of direct sales people to work from. You could advertise it as a help needed promotion deal with all the different companies. Surely they are all in the same situation as wanting recruits as we are.

I have a couple of places about 20 miles apart picked out that I could rent for almost nothing if split between the different booths. If it works out in one, I might also try the other.
 
I would chose the one that offers the most possible Home Based Business People.
