Change is the only thing that is constant in this world. My advice is: you can choose to change, but it is gradual, and by trainning. See you making it

BUSINESS IDEA 11

Party Entertainer

Business Overview
There are a couple of options available in terms of starting a party entertaining service. You can work as an agency, representing entertainers for parties. Or, if you have the skills, you can be an entertainer yourself. The different types of entertainers for children's parties include clowns, magicians, trained pet shows, singers and skit plays. You can also gear your act to adults and offer your services for corporate events as a magician or karaoke deejay. This is a relatively low-investment business to start and operate, and the profit potential is very good. Average rate for party entertainers could be $50 per hour, with a minimum charge for 1-1/2 hours including travel. An agency representing entertainers for parties or being an entertainer yourself is a good home based business that allows for flexible hours, good income potential and loads of fun.

The Market
Your customers are parents who are giving their children parties, and businesses who are planning anniversary, holiday or summer events for their employees. While you can advertise in the Yellow Pages and send fliers to local businesses, your best marketing tool will be word-of-mouth. Be sure to bring brochures or business cards to every gig you get.

Needed Equipment
Your area of expertise will dictate the tools of your trade. You will also need reliable transportation.

Party Tent Rentals

Business Overview
Renting party tents is a fantastic opportunity for people who are searching for an easy way to earn extra money. Just think of all the people, companies, and organizations that routinely rent large tents for outdoor events'wedding planners, catering companies, event and corporate planners, charity organizations, retailers hosting under-the-tent sales and clearance events, and sports teams and clubs, to name just a few. New party tents can be expensive for large ones, but with a little bit of research it is possible to buy secondhand party tents in good condition for about half the cost of new and even less if you are prepared to make a few repairs. As a rule of thumb, large party tents require about one hour for two people to set up and about the same time to disassemble, while one person can erect and disassemble smaller tents in half that time. Depending on tent size, rental price are in the range per day, including delivery, setup, and disassembly. Extra income can also be earned by renting tables, chairs, lighting, and PA systems.

The Market
Wedding planners, catering companies, event and corporate planners, charity organizations, retailers hosting under-the-tent sales and clearance events, and sports teams and clubs, as well as individuals hosting events.

Other items for rent include:
Tents, chairs, table, plates, cutleries and all other event needs

Information Consultant

Business Overview
The amount of information available today is staggering. For companies planning new products and patents or scoping out the competition, and for many other types of businesses, the trick is in figuring out how to access the information they need. If you love research--the excitement of sifting through a maze of books, magazines, journals and other esoteric sources for bits of information--you can ride to the rescue as an information consultant. You can seek out material for all sorts of clients--attorneys preparing cases; advertising, public relations and market research firms preparing campaigns; financial wizards; medical researchers; environmental engineers; or management consultants. Despite this wealth of potential customers, however, you should plan on specializing in a particular field. This way, you'll be familiar with the usual 'suspects' or avenues of research, so you'll be able to complete assignments faster. And since this can be a difficult business to market, by sticking to one industry, you increase your word-of-mouth advertising capacity. The advantages to this business are that you can start part time if you like, you're always learning something new, the industry has lots of room for growth, and if you love digging through information for the sheer joy of discovery, you'll be in information nirvana every working day. You'll need dogged persistence and the skills and experience to take you down the proper research avenues, plus the creativity and intuition to lead you in new directions when the usual methods fail. In addition, it helps to have a background in the field you choose to specialize in, but this is not an absolute requirement.

The Market
Who your clients are will depend on what field you specialize in. Once you decide, the best ways to reach them are by networking in professional groups and organizations and spreading the word among present and former colleagues. Write articles for and place ads in professional or trade journals. Give seminars and talks to industry groups. Establish relationships with other information consultants who can pass overflow or out-of-their-field work on to you.

Needed Equipment
You'll need a computer with a laser or inkjet printer. And since you'll do most of your research online, you must have a good Internet service provider and accounts with a variety of subscription research sites like Lexis/Nexis and E-Journal. Plan on having a separate, or dedicated, line for your Internet access--otherwise clients won't be able to reach you.

Bodyguard Security Service

Bodyguards are no longer hired just to protect celebrities, they're also hired to protect business leaders; high-profile activists, authors, journalists; and just about anyone else who comes under short- or long-term threats. Starting a bodyguard service does require a great deal of careful planning and research in order to ensure business success; however, a successful bodyguard service can bring in impressive revenue.

The Market
Anyone who comes under short- or long-term threats, including celebrities and other high-profile clients such as activists, authors, journalists, etc.

Business Consultant

If you're a business expert--you're a whiz at marketing, reorganization, setting up franchises, retooling the company image, or any number of other specialties--then you've got the right stuff to be a business consultant. Instead of reporting to the office every day as a company man or woman, you'll work as an independent contractor on special projects for a number of clients. The advantages to this business are that you can work at home and you get the excitement and pacing of the corporate world without having to live it on a 9-to-5 basis. You'll need a strong background in your area of expertise coupled with stellar marketing skills to convince potential clients of your worth. You'll also need excellent communication and people skills--you'll be going into the company as an outsider, which can be good or bad, depending on the interpersonal culture of the company.

The Market
Network among professional and civic organizations in your area and among present and former colleagues. Write articles for the business section of local publications. Give talks to business groups and seminars or workshops at local colleges. Place an ad in the Yellow Pages. Put up a website.

Needed Equipment
You should have top-notch credentials in your specialty--you've held prominent positions, can cite professional certification, belong to pertinent organizations, have written books or articles, or taught courses or workshops. You should also have a reference network--colleagues or other businesspeople who can attest to your expertise and business smarts. Besides what's in your head, you'll need the standard office setup--a computer, a laser printer, a fax machine and the usual office software.

Catering Truck

Secondhand catering trucks in good condition can be purchased, and this can be the first step taken to establishing a catering truck route. A catering truck route is a great business to set in motion. The business can also be started and can easily generate a combined income and profit earnings. Additionally, food products can be purchased from restaurants, catering services and wholesalers and marked up by as much as 150 percent for retail sales. Ideal stopping points for a catering truck route include construction sites, factories, parks, beaches and sporting events.

Bottled Water

Did you know that many water bottling facilities bottle water under private label agreements? While this may seem like useless trivia to most, it certainly is useful information for anyone seeking to start a business wholesaling or retailing bottled water, especially on a limited startup capital basis. Fifty years from now the overnight millionaires and billionaires will not be conquering heroes of tech startups, but rather entrepreneurs that had the foresight to start businesses in the water supply or recycling industries. The world's population now stands at more than six billion people, half of which don't currently have access to clean drinking water. As the world's population expands, this disastrous situation isn't going to improve. It's possible to get into the bottled water sales business now with a limited startup investment and grow the business from the profits that are earned until the business can be expanded to the point that water bottling and purchasing water rights for bottling can be accomplished.

Catering

If you're one of those fearless people who enjoys giving elegant dinner parties, you get rave reviews from guests and your relatives beg to have holidays at your house because of your cooking, then catering might be your cup of tea. As a caterer, you'll plan menus and elegant or playful presentations for everything from company picnics to debutante balls, then cook it all up, deliver it to the event, serve it and clean up afterward. You can specialize in affairs like weddings; specific goodies like cakes or cookies; or clients like corporations, charities or individual parties. While your family may clamor for your meatloaf and mashed potatoes, you'll need more than just the ability to whip up some spuds. You'll also need a flair for presentation--the ability to make the fruits (and other foods) of your labors look fancy--as well as a talent for the latest trends in foods and party ideas. You'll also need an abundance of organizational, time-management and record-keeping skills. Catering requires lots of hard-core planning and pacing. Last but not least, you need a good grounding in safe food-handling practices, product liability laws and health regulations, and good people skills. The advantages to this business are that it's creative and fun--you can throw a party any time you like and serve up all sorts of new dishes and new ideas--and somebody else foots the bill. It's gratifying--people always appreciate being fed, and when your presentation is elegant or intriguing, they're impressed as well. You can start part time and you can base your office at home.

The Market
Your clients can be people with something to celebrate--a wedding, anniversary, graduation or other milestone--or any other kind of bash. You can go after the corporate market, helping to make a splash at conferences, meetings, employee-morale boosters and grand openings, or you can set a course for businesses like yacht charters, sunset cruises and dinner theaters. To snag the celebratory types, develop a referral network--introduce yourself to wedding planners, bridal boutiques, cake decorators and bakers, florists, and card and party supply shopkeepers. Hand out brochures and business cards and check in often. Bring a few choice tidbits, snazzy hors d'ouevres or sinful desserts to give as goodwill gestures. Everybody loves an unexpected treat and the person who delivers it--this is a good way to ensure that they remember you fondly and refer you to their own clients. For corporate and other business types, send a sales letter and brochure, then follow up with a phone call requesting an appointment to discuss your services. Cater a charity event in exchange for publicity, then get your company written up in local publications. Volunteer yourself for a local radio chat show and answer questions about throwing successful parties.

Needed Equipment
Other than a commercial kitchen, the only things you need to get started are a phone and a delivery vehicle. A computer and printer are always nice but not a necessity for starters. You can get around the kitchen problem by arranging to use a restaurant's facility for a small fee in its off-hours or by sharing the rental costs of a commercial kitchen and its use with other caterers.
