Gunny McGown says Welcome Home!

GunnyRet Consulting offers *Unlimited Career Search Coaching for Veterans and Military Spouses; including widows/widowers.

Am I eligible for your Services?

If you took the oath of enlistment, or oath of office, and completed recruit training or Officer Candidate School for the United States Armed Forces, and later received an honorable discharge or general under honorable conditions type separation, then you are eligible to receive my job coaching and career search assistance with verification required.

GunnyRet has been providing unlimited military career search coaching to Veterans and Military Spouses since 2014.

As a Veteran or military spouse, you owe it to yourself and your family to connect to others who will help you and inspire you as you look for new employment.

Whether you are just starting your transition, or you have long since hung up your dress blues, there are many Veterans who are willing to help you make the most of your military skills and those intangible qualities that employers want in their workforce.

There is no reason an unemployed Veteran or spouse needs to feel like they have no job search support.

Thank you, and I wish you a sincere welcome home!

Why are some services no longer FREE for Veterans and Military Spouses?
UPDATE October 22, 2018:

Because I am finding it harder and harder to maintain this website, and serve Veterans nationwide for free, if you are an Officer, or Senior Enlisted (on active duty) {All pay grades at or above E-7}, or an employed Reserve or National Guard service member who is reaching out to me because you are unhappy with your current job, I’m asking you to make a donation.

Exceptions to the rule above effective August 8, 2019: If you reside in Ohio, or can show proof that you are relocating to this state, or are a member of AMVETS, or the American Legion, there will be no donation required. However, please bear in mind, I serve a LOT of Veterans, and I cannot continue to support others if you are not willing to support others.

Providing unlimited military career search coaching to Veterans and Military Spouses is extremely rewarding for me, but currently doesn’t create an income. I depend heavily on consulting fees, speaking fees, my website building and various other business streams, such as Gunny’s Job Board to help me actually continue my work. But, these types of opportunities don’t come along often.

According to this article I found, it might help you understand the value of my career coaching services:

Is a Career Coach Worth the Money? – Undercover Recruiter

The fees charged by career coaches vary greatly and you should definitely shop around for a deal. Expect to pay anything from $100 to $500 for a two hour session. Feb 5, 2017.

Source: https://theundercoverrecruiter.com/career-coach-worth-money/ (found on 10/22/2018).

Typically, my coaching sessions last approximately 45 minutes each. Sometimes they go longer due to the needs of the Veteran.

As of 10/22/2018, by my review of my clients, I have had approximately 435 appointments with Veterans or Spouses since November 2014!

Therefore, if I’m being conservative using the details above, that’s about $50.00 per appointment (x) 435 = $21,750.00 in unrealized revenue.
Similarly, if I’m being somewhat aggressive in this analysis, that’s about $250 per appointment (x) 435 appointments = $108,750.00 in unrealized income.
To date, I have just 40 reviews in Appointy, and 19 Reviews in LinkedIn from clients or former coworkers. That’s a mere 12% of reviews in nearly 4 years!

Testimonials

You can read some testimonials from Veterans I’ve helped on my LinkedIn profile: www.linkedin.com/in/bryanamcgown/ , or on my scheduling website, https://gunnyret.appointy.com Click on the tab for Reviews.

So, if you are an unemployed, or underemployed Veteran, regardless of rank or current duty status, you’re unlimited career search coaching is still provided at NO COST as long as I am providing job coaching services. If you are on ACTIVE DUTY and below the pay grade of E-7, your job search coaching services are free! However, ALL “donations” will be accepted!

Ohio residents (or relocating to Ohio) – Free
AMVETS members – Free
American Legion members – Free

I offer unlimited career search coaching to Veterans and Military Spouses because no one offered this service when I retired. And, quite frankly, the services I received from state agencies were terrible. Many organizations only help Veterans or military families if they are from the Post 9/11 era. I will never tell you I can’t help you based on your service era!
