This biz oppty that I am considering.

First a little about me: my husband & I have owned & operated a very successful lawn business for the past 19 years & still going strong. 2 years ago I received my real estate license (I actually went on to get my brokers license), and it is the absolute worse time to get into that career, but, I am not getting out of it, I studied & worked waay to hard to get my license & have put out alot of money for it too and I will continue to do so as I am determined. The market was up, has gone down & I just know in my heart it will come back up & I will be here when it does, but in the meantime, I have run across a business online, although it is not an online business, it is one where I will have to go out & physically drum up business.

Ok, enough babble.

The business can be seen at http://www.addressamerica.net/index.asp.
They sell reflective address numbers that are placed on short decorative posts. Alot of address numbers cannot be seen from the house, this would be placed at the front of the property near the curb or somewhere that when headlights shine on it, the numbers are easily seen. Now I know police, ambulance & fire trucks have GPS these days to help them find the address, but how many times have you tried to find an address with no luck due to the poorly visible address?
Let the tossing begin & let me know or give me a different perspective on this idea.

Thanks
