For BUILDER magazine, a national trade publication that covers
the single-family homebuilding space, this article looks at the
status of the second-home and vacation home market post COVID.
How has COVID-19 impacted this sector? Which geographical
markets are doing relatively well? Which have been impacted the
most? How has it played out in towers/condos? What's the
investment outlook for this segment going forward? Is this an
opportunity builders and buyers to get into this market now, or
is there more risk ahead? Will COVID cause more people to want
second homes as a refuge/place to social distance, or will the
economic uncertainty caused by COVID make potential second home
buyers want to sit on cash instead? For builders targeting the
second home market, what are the best practices to be successful
in this market today? How is the second home market different
from the primary home market? What are the similarities? What
risks should builders targeting this market be conscious of, and
what steps should they take to mitigate them? What design
elements and must-haves do second home buyers want and expect?
Are there any other aspects of the second home market to
consider here? I'd like to talk with homebuilders who sell into
or target the vacation/second-home market. Please contact Joe

We all know that Instagram for business already features
valuable insights to help you to better understand your account

ultimately, help a business to get the most out of its Instagram
account.

Do you use any third part analytics tools to better understand
your Instagram business account? What it offers that you

Very important: please DO NOT copy and paste, from the internet,
a list of available tools to analyse Instagram performance. I
want to hear YOUR own experience (e.g.: Why do you use it and
how it helps you?).
Pitches from PR agencies suggesting a client to talk about it

What advice would you give to marketers and business leaders for
managing and thriving through uncertainty? Specific examples
always appreciated (even better if they include results).
We will be publishing -- An Inspirational Guide for Uncertain
Times: XX ideas and resources for marketers and business leaders

I will be covering these 2 questions in my syndicated Careers
Now column in July and would like input!
1. As teachers grapple with challenges e-learning--and no
definite plans for when and how schools might return to
"normal"--many educators are considering other career options.
What are some skills they have gained while helping their
students and their students' families transition to online
learning that they can highlight on their resumes and LinkedIn
profiles?
2. I was speaking with someone recently who is concerned about a
family member who dropped out of college one course shy of a
degree (due in large part to now-resolved mental health issues
he was struggling with at the time). His grades while in school
were great ... but the one class he's missing is a major
capstone project that would be extremely difficult if not
impossible to complete after being gone for several years. Is
there a way to address this on a resume and during interviews so
it doesn't appear that he was just lazy and didn't feel like
finishing?

Query:
What is the case for defunding the police or not, in your view?
How have police budgets grown in the past decade and do to what
reasons? Do you believe police have become more militarized in
the past decade and if so, why and what effect has it had? How
in the past decade or in what ways have police officers been
asked to do jobs that they were not originally intended to do
(examples: act as security in schools, remove homeless people
from storefronts, respond to situations involving mental health,
etc) How do police unions hinder the process for justice in
situations involving police brutality or police killings of
black people or people of color? What are some additional
changes that need to be made in police departments for the
improvement of relations between the police and black people or
people of color?

Query:
I am writing an essay about white parents raising their white
children in towns/neighborhoods/communities that are majority
white. I would like to speak to \/obtain a quote from someone
who works for an anti-racist/social justice organization willing
to share their perspective on the responsibility of white
parents in white spaces and why being mindful of race in places
that are not diverse is important.
Requirements:
Must be engaged in anti-racism/racial justice work in a
professional capacity. This work must be the primary function of
their job. (So not, like "We sell shirts and also X% of every
sale goes to the NAACP because fighting racism is a part of our
company ethos." That's cool, but this isn't the space for that.)
