Asking an employee to relocate can be expensive and stressful.

relocation experiences from both sides of the equation

employers should kind of consider offering and it should also
help employees figure out what's fair or what they can expect.

Along with those experiential tidbits, I'm looking for details
about what an employee relocation package should include, as
well as answers to the following:

-How much is the average relocation package?

-How much does it cost to relocate an employee?

-What do employers cover in relocation packages?

-What is a reasonable relocation package?

-What part of moving expenses are deductible to a company?

Requirements:

Looking for HR professionals and business owners to talk about
the employee relocation packages they've offered in the past.

I also would like to get a couple employees who have gotten an
employee relocation package to share what the process was like

headaches.

100) Summary: Seeking Entrepreneur Journeys

Name: Sheldon Chi One Million by One Million

Category: High Tech

Email: query-b9eo@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: One Million by One Million

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 15 September

Query:

Hi, My name is Sheldon Chi. I am responsible for coordinating
stories for the 1Mby1M blog [1mby1m.com]]. The Entrepreneur
Journeys (EJ) series is our flagship series and we're looking
for interesting companies with at least $5 million in annual
revenue to feature in lengthy feature stories. We are interested
in interviewing the entrepreneur who can and is willing to
discuss, at length, the nuances of the strategy and process of
company building, spanning topics such as bootstrapping,
financing, positioning, customer acquisition, channels, team
building, etc. To pitch, please provide revenue level, industry
(Our interests: E-Commerce, Cloud Computing, SaaS, Mobile,
Social, Big Data, IoT, FinTech, Digital Media, Gaming,
Healthcare IT, Online Education, etc.) and focus of the story
angle in terms of company-building experience. We use the
revenue level as a qualification criterion for selecting
entrepreneurs to profile. We don't necessarily have to publish
this number in the actual story. The Entrepreneur Journeys
series has already produced 12 books
(http://tinyurl.com/4p4phwy). You can see examples of the series
on our blog (http://tinyurl.com/d8m9mt). This blog is part of
the One Million by One Million global initiative, whose aim is
to help a million entrepreneurs reach $1 million in annual
revenue. We also use the EJ interviews as case studies to teach
other entrepreneurs how to navigate the entrepreneurial waters.
You get publicity, as well as a platform to share your lessons
from the trenches with a large number of aspiring and practicing
entrepreneurs. 1M/1M has syndication relationships with many
venues: HBR, Xconomy, SmallBizTrends, EconomicTimes (India),
Women 2.0, Mashable, Huffington Post, Business Insider,
ReadWriteWeb, and several other sites. Articles we develop
through these interviews often get repackaged for the
syndication partners. The 1Mby1M blog was named by Forbes in the
Top 100 Blog for Entrepreneurs (http://onforb.es/1a6RkOs). The
procedure is to have a one-hour interview by phone or in-person
in Menlo Park, at our office. We will provide the dial-in for
phone interviews, and the address for the in-person interviews.

Requirements:

When you send in your pitch, please be sure to include the
revenue level, as it is the primary criterion we use to select
stories. Unlike other entrepreneurship media, we do not look for
financing as a criterion for determining story worthiness. Also,
if your revenue threshold is below the $5M level currently, you
are welcome to email me, and I will check if your story might
fit in any of our other series. To give you a flavor, here are
some of our other ongoing series: The 1M/1M Deal Radar: Revenue
between $1M and $5M, high growth rate. We typically do email
interviews for this series. Thought Leader Interviews: We also
have Thought Leader Series opportunities in Cloud Computing,
Cyber Security, Mobile and Social, Big Data, Outsourcing, Online
Education, e-commerce, Gaming, Online Fashion, HealthcareIT,
Internet Of Things, etc. These require, however, that the
company has a minimum of $5M in revenue.

Query:

Holiday season is coming up and let's face it. No one is really

home and keeping everyone safe, what KNIVES would you recommend
having in your kitchen?

Some of my readers have no idea what the difference is between a
$10 knife and a $150 knife.

Can you tell me if they are purchasing a light saber?

Are they going to become the next Rachel Ray?

Are they going to become Uma Thurman from Kill Bill?

What's the deal with knives and what's the best one to have?

Also, would you recommend gifting a knife set or is that clearly
an invitation for holiday hostility?

These are questions that we need answers to!

Requirements:

Answer These For Consideration:

1) What knife would you recommend for the kitchen?

2) How much is the knife?

3) Why is the knife that price?

4) What material is the knife made of?

5) Can this knife cut through a lemon without increase anxiety
because virtually everyone is stressed about COVID?

6) Where can this knife be purchased from?

7) Are there any special techniques that are involved in using
this knife?

8) How long will the knife last?

9) Does the knife need maintenance. Meaning - does it need to be
sharpened? If so, how often?

10) Is this knife good for carving a holiday turkey or ham? If
so, why? Do you have any supporting videos or photos?

11) Do you have high quality photos of the knives?

12) What is the best e-mail and number for me to contact you if
I decide to interview you for this article?
