What is the quickest way to land an $85K job matching my skills?

I was recently let go from a position of sales manager at a large commercial printer. I have 16 yrs. of b2b sales experience, as well as management and business consulting experience. I have been responsible for extensive sales training and I have managed sales territories of $500K to $3 million. I give 300% on all jobs, and I have been a highly successful salesperson throughout my career. I need a job as soon as possible! I love to work!

Preparing a home for a quick sale?

My husband just accepted a position with a company. Does anyone have ideas on preparing my home to sell fast or have any tips. We need to relocate, luckily his job his where his parents are living and he will be staying there during the week and coming home on the weekends. This leaves me preparing this home and moving so that we all can be together all the time.

Does anyone know of any ‘travel clubs’ that are looking for sales/marketing personnel?

Specifically, I’m looking for a position to set appointments for potential clients/buyers, and a position that can be worked from home?

Should I be honest with people interviewing for a position at my company?

Guy I interviewed for a labor position tells me he’s done everything for his last boss. Got clients, landed jobs, brought in $150k, sold clients “extras” – and, verbatim, “I ran his business”. He tells me that he doesn’t get hired because he is “overqualified”.
He is late 20′s and worked for at least 7 or 8 other companies in the last 5 years, plus the co that hires him back. He says he works 50 plus hours a week, gets $550 salary.
The position he applied for is for labor only with no client contact / no sales. I provided a CLEAR written job description He said that even though he’s overqualified he wants the job because he has a car payment & rent due.
Q:
Should I be honest and tell him to tone it down a bit? Should I call his ex-boss and ask if this guy “did everything in his business?” and when he says “no”, break it down to the applicant that he is not even close to overqualified? Or should I give the speech “I’m sorry but we’ve chosen another applicant”?
Re: Contractor – it’s a good theory, but our worker’s comp will audit us and we will be paying more premium for him as a contractor than as an employee – even for the week, and I can’t afford to pay him under-the-table either. Paperwork sucks : )
Re: Sno
This is not a corporate job – we’re talking along the lines of pool service / lawn service / painting / etc. Also, the applicant has not been with an employer for more than 3 months straight. I do give everyone a fair shot, I have to with the nature of the biz, but you can tell when someone is waaaay overselling himself.
And, this is an hourly position. Never commission based in our industry.
