I've been going over an idea in my head all day and I wanted to get some other thoughts on it.
I currently own and operate a cleaning and maintenance company. For obvious reasons a very difficult model to turn into a fastlane business.
However, one of my best niches within the business is apartment and rental turnovers. I've build a good list of landlords. My company handles the cleaning and I sub out the painting and minor repairs. It pays well and I like that I'm not doing all the work, but make a percentage on the painting and repairs. So I started thinking, what if I sub all of it out. I handle the lead generation, line up the service providers, and handle the scheduling and billing. Suddenly this niche becomes very scalable, even into other markets. There are a couple of other companies that do similar, servicemagic.com and bidmycleaning.com. But they focus more on homeowners and only provide lead generation. I would mainly focus on landlords and investment property owners and the specific services they need; cleaning, painting, landscaping, etc.
Anyway, the idea has been in my head all day and just wanted to bounce it around and see what others thought.
