In Six Months, Or Less, This Business Could Take Off. Now Is The Time To Get In On It..

Peter,

My initial efforts with address painting sounded much like your own. I started several years ago as part of a fund raising team for the Children's hospital. We did raise money and I thought I could continue on with it as a personal moneymaker, but that was not the case.

Like you said, it's not a priority for the general public and I just did it from time to time when I needed a few bucks.

Here's what happened to change all that:

Two suggestions from customers resulted in a new and different style of address that people really, really liked. Then last year, I learned of a public campaign by the fire dept. about the importance of visible home addresses - especially at night when seconds could count during a 911 emergency and I used some of those materials in my marketing.

I experimented with various fliers and other approaches that resulted in a very specific structure the includes timing and specific actions to pull all the business I can handle day in and day out. I experimented with pricing and side jobs (extra address for corner homes and steps and also re-doing old faded addresses).

The real interesting thing is that the addresses I do serve as automatic and constant marketing for the product itself, since they are so visible and attractive by stimulating the desire of neighborhood residents to have one for their home.

I've incorporated two other basic home services that can and do earn me in excess of $1000 per week EACH. However, a combination of two or even the three make for a consistent response that I'm in full control of.

I don't need to worry about being involved with a company that can change things whenever they want or go down the tubes with them if they do. This a a direct cash business that gives me total finacial security and to me, that's the only way to go!

I'm going to put a program together about what I do with this for others to work and profit from, but right now, I'm spending most of the day working, testing and making great money.

I like this more than buying and selling merchandise because I simply create the product on demand and don't need to chase them down or compete with others for the same merchandise! (I did that for way too many years to know that there's better ways to make money with personal control)

Please feel free to email me with other questions and I'll do my best to answer what I can for you.
