"help to get focused"


          

Hi,

I have recently been laid off and have attempted to start several businesses in the past. My experience is in social services and i keep finding myself back there.(I love helping people).

1. My first idea is to start a group home for youth.
2. Open a 24 hour daycare for children.
3. My most favorite is a plus size clothing store
4. Find out how to contract with the govt.(i have the source dont know what to contract with and do you need experience in it.)
5. MY other favorite is a CONCIERGE/Consulting/Personal Assistant service. I have a knack for finding things and resources for people. I mean almost anything i can find. Just like this website (lol). But don't know where to start(lol). I have read that consulting business take at least 3-4 yrs for stable income.
6.Start a publishing agency, starting with my own works, also market other artisits and writers.( I draw, and write by heart, not by trade)
PLEASE HELP I AM OPEN MINDED AND HAVE THAT ITCH I WANT TO DO EVERYTHING, BUT DO NOT HAVE THE FINANCES. THANX

Sounds like you have a ton of energy and ideas...

I've always thougth there is a big need in the Personal Assitant arena for the elderly. You could build a client base of elderly people who need someone they can trust to give them advice about medical plans, things they get in the mail, etc, etc... If you like working with this age group it sure could be fun.

I'm a full-time realtor but I make money on the side every month with a simple home business: www.myhomeoffice.ws

Good luck and have fun!
