Is this available to download right now?

No. This is a preorder. The guide is currently being written. Draft content goes to preorder buyers within 30 days; the final PDF within 60 days. If you need something today, this is not the right purchase.

What if it never arrives? What's the refund policy?

If the final PDF has not landed in your inbox by day 90 from your purchase, you receive a full refund automatically. You do not need to ask, follow up, or file a dispute. The 90-day date is a hard commitment.

Why should I pay $5 now instead of waiting for the finished product?

At launch the guide will be $29. Preordering locks your copy at $5 — you pay nothing additional on delivery. Your preorder also funds the writing directly. If that trade doesn't feel worth it, wait and pay full price when it's live.

Who is this guide for?

Employees in sectors currently experiencing or at meaningful risk of layoffs — primarily tech, media, finance, and adjacent roles. It is most useful if you have a full-time job right now and want to be harder to cut and less financially exposed before the next restructure.

Not for people already laid off and job searching — this guide focuses on what to do while you're still employed. Not for founders or the self-employed. Not for people wanting a resume rewrite or interview prep.

What format is the guide? Can I read it on my phone?

It will be a PDF, readable on any device. It will also be formatted to print cleanly if you prefer a physical copy. No app, no subscription, no login required.

Can I share it with my team or a friend?

Your purchase covers a single-user license for personal use. It is not licensed for redistribution, resale, or sharing with teams. If you want multiple copies, contact us before purchasing.

Does this sound like you?

You've been refreshing LinkedIn watching former colleagues post 'excited to share' after their layoffs. You've Googled 'is my job safe from AI' at 11pm. You have one income source, one employer, and zero plan B. You keep meaning to build something on the side — but you don't know where to start without torching your reputation at work or burning every weekend.

What it costs to keep winging it

The people who survive the next round won't be the most skilled — they'll be the most visible internally and the hardest to fully replace. Waiting until the announcement lands means starting from zero with no runway.

Why this guide works differently

Generic career advice tells you to 'update your LinkedIn' and 'build your personal brand.' This guide ignores that. It focuses on two levers that actually move the needle before a layoff: who inside your company knows your name and your value (internal networking done without looking political), and what income you have outside your paycheck that covers your rent if your badge stops working. Both levers are specific to people with full-time jobs in sectors currently cutting headcount.

What's inside

Internal Visibility Map — a one-page exercise to identify the 8–12 people whose opinion of you determines your safety in a restructure
The Quiet Ally Script — word-for-word language for reconnecting with cross-functional colleagues without sounding desperate or political
Layoff Risk Audit — 12 yes/no questions that score your current exposure across team size, revenue proximity, replaceability, and manager tenure
Side Income Starter Matrix — a framework to match your existing skills to income streams that don't require nights, weekends, or a big audience to start
The 10-Hour Week Stack — how to run one small income stream without it bleeding into your full-time performance
Severance and Safety Net Checklist — what to negotiate, save, and set up now so a layoff is an inconvenience, not a crisis
The 'Stay or Go' Decision Script — a structured way to evaluate whether to outlast the cuts or move before the announcement

How we're writing this

Guide sources include public layoff data from Layoffs.fyi, BLS displacement reports, and sector-specific restructure patterns from 2022–2024 tech and media cycles
The internal networking framework is built from documented research on organizational network analysis — specifically which node positions survive restructures at higher rates
Side income options are filtered against a single constraint: executable by someone with a full-time job, no existing audience, and 10 hours per week maximum
The Layoff Risk Audit questions are drawn from the criteria that HR and finance teams are documented to use in reduction-in-force prioritization decisions
This guide is being written because 'how to layoff proof your life' and related queries are running at approximately 12,500 searches per month and rising — and every existing resource either sells generic hustle advice or resume templates that miss the point entirely
