I recently read in a business magazine of two self-employed businesses that I have become interested in.
The first is a car buying consultant where the customer would provide me with information such as; features they wanted,their price range, and what some of their driving needs were. Based on this information I would research cars and come up with a car perfectly suited for them.
The second is basically a computer geek for hire where customers would call with problems and I would either walk them through the problem over the phone or come over personally. I realize geek squad is similar to this idea, but my prices would be significantly lower and I believe that me being local instead of corporate would make my business more attractive and trustworthy.
If anyone has any experience with either of these proposals I would greatly appreciate your input. Oh, and I am only interested in service related businesses at the moment because I do not have much start up money.
