![]() I saw this video and thought how creative of an idea and it gave a me a
bunch of different ideas for different niches. Watch this video and see a great niche business Not only can you probably replicate this business locally but it gave me a bunch of related ideas as well. Probably can get someone to start this business and then do the marketing for them and get a % of revenues generated from the marketing. Let me know your thoughts. Best, |

Thanks for a great video on the "cat luxury hotel"...! There are all kinds of fascinating pet businesses... The latest "unusual" pet business I've heard about is to become a pet massage specialist! See http://www.petmassage.com Pet businesses are "hot" to my understanding... Why? Single people keep pets for companionship. Couples without kids keep pets too (as children-substitutes). And "empty nesters" also keep pets too, as members of the family... Fewer people are having kids, but more people are keeping pets instead... Cheers ![]() Dien

![]() Last Thursday I decided to do four 30 minute pet photography sessions.
I wanted to test out a new "Ring Flash" I had purchased from www.AlienBees.com On the first 3 sessions I had the RingFlash mounted to my camera and totally blew the eyes out and overexposed everything. My wife carefully reconstructed the eyes on the first cat and it's owner didn't suspect a thing saying that we captured "Cookie" perfectly. The other cat and two dogs were even worse. They were so bad that we didn't even attempt to use Photoshop to try to resurrect them but I printed them anyway. My wife thought I didn't have a hope in hell of making a sale from any of them. In fact - she just wanted top trash them and explain to the customers that they didn't turn out because I was experimenting with my new Ring Flash. As I was walking out the door to go show the prints I told my wife that it's surprising what people will buy. So when I returned having sold all 4 packages for $160 each she said shaking her head... "You're joking - unbelievable, I wouldn't have bought them". But there you go. People love their pets and will purchase what we consider lousy photos of them if given the opportunity. Towards the end of the last session I removed the RingFlash from my camera and mounted it to a lightstand and attached a Softbox which solved the problems so... from now on the Ringflash will be spot on! "Here's a glow in the dark kitty before "eye reconstruction" taken with my camera mounted to the ringlight. ![]() And here's a shot from the end of the last session... using the ring flash with a softbox. ![]() The best part is how easy it is to get customers! I could easily do 5 to 10 a day. Good for pocket money but still, our most profitable venture is our Antique Family Portraits. Cheers, Steve Shulenski www.MaverickPhotographer.com |

![]() Dear Steve,
Thanks for the Great post. LUV the Glowing Kitty Eyeballs Photo. Anyway... Here's something that only cost me 24.00 but has added 1000.00 in 2 days to my *Big Red Nose Club* CD sales. I suggest YOU test out & sell **Cat Cartoon Stories** based on the Cat owners FAVORITE memories of FLUFFY. (Dog Cartoons might be even BIGGER.) Here's what I've been doing - We BRIBE 100's of my Ezine readers & salespeople to send in their Testimonials on how to get Instant TRUST and RAPPORT in a FLIRT/Sales situation. Most Test the ideas we borrow from self made millionaires around the world in FLIRT situations. BEFORE risking them with clients or prospects. Which makes learning proven 100 million dollar NLP Sales and Referral Strategies FUN. Jerry made a Paper Rose for a Cashier. She went from cold to Smiling in 10 seconds. Very valuable in a Strangers Office to PRE-heat the Appointment... The cartoon is full of photos - since I can't draw worth a darn. ![]() Thanks, Glenn P.S. - Only cost me 24.00 bucks to use Comic Life and (Skitch is F_R_E_E in the beta-test stage) - at www.plasq.com P.P.S. - Some of my Ebay auctions are UP in price by 100% the last 2 weeks. But the 48 product back-end is the majority of the bucks. IF you're curious... *The Munny Boomerang-How To Send Out Words & Get Back MUNNY* Link is here: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll...MESE:IT&ih=002 |

![]() Dear Steve,
Thanks. Just Suppose you interweave pics of the husband, wife, kids and the cat or dog in the cartoon story? Then use one of those auto-book programs. You no-longer are selling photos. You are selling them BACK their memories of the family, kids and cats all mixed together. A - You should boost your close rate. B - You have created a Series of Products to sell each family. Depending on how many stories they have. DAD needs gifts for birthdays, anniversaries C - AND - you can boost prices. Or use it as a Bump. Or an Up-sell back end. Glenn |
