Hi Steve,
I agree - I think you'll make more money with your new idea, than the "old" way...
It reminds me of the story of Jim Penman.
Jim started mowing lawns. He'd advertise, and then get more lawn mowing work than he could handle.
He found that other people mowing lawns couldn't get
enough work (maybe because they weren't advertising).
So he hit on the idea of
selling these extra jobs to the other people mowing lawns for a living.
(I read this in Jim Penman's book, "
Surprised by Success," which I read many years ago...)
Eventually, Jim turned his business into a lawn mowing franchise business.
It's now the largest franchise in Australia, with
over 3,000 franchises, and it's also the world's largest home franchise business. He's also recently expanded to other countries,
such as the UK and Canada.
His business now makes
many millions of dollars a year in net income.
Who'd have thought you could get all that - just from mowing some lawns??!?!
Best wishes!
