Read Kevin's Plan To Bring JOBS back to Maine.

Action plan to bring JOBS to Maine - immediately

First – convert some State employees involved in “economic development” to a commission driven compensation structure. If you want to see jobs come to Maine start compensating people based on how many jobs they attract. Period.

Commission driven success is a basic tool in private business. We need some common sense in our efforts to improve Maine. Corporations have some ideas to contribute to government; this is one idea we will embrace.

Every time we work on attracting a business to Maine – and do not succeed – we will know from that process where we fell short as a State and use this information, actual company feedback, to improve our position to win in the next round.

Each time we work with a business to come to Maine with JOBS and that business goes to Alabama or New Hampshire or Tennessee we will be able to create a checklist of what things about Maine that company did not like – where we lost to the competition.
