With the job market becoming ever more competitive, candidates need to do whatever they can to secure an all-important edge. You can get someone to help with the application process, but what about the interview itself?

Certainly there are plenty of books available on interview technique, but there’s no substitute for practice.

If you have experience of interviewing people, it seems there’s an opportunity to set up a service providing mock interviews. In fact you needn’t necessarily have the interview experience yourself. You could act as a co-ordinator- subcontracting the interviewing to specialists in the field in which candidates are seeking work.

So for example, you could recruit a panel of interviewers from the fields of accountancy, law, sales, marketing, engineering, retail etc who would be paid a fee to put your customers through a mock interview.

This is a service which could be set up without a great deal of outlay, and with minimal space requirements. All you’d need is a small office.

More Direct Sales Good News

We’ve discussed before how direct sales organisations like Avon are enjoying a boom in sales and a big rise in the number of agents. Further evidence of the trend is supplied via Mary Kay cosmetics in the United States who signed up a record 165,000 new freelance sales reps.

This seems to be a change precipitated by the economic downturn-people are looking for a low-hassle way to make some extra money and companies like these provide it.

From the companies point of view, it’s also good news. They get a company representative who doesn’t earn a penny until they sell, plus access to all their contacts.

 Might the direct sales agent business model be applicable to your business, venture or idea. If so, then now would be a good time to put it to the test.

“Here’s One Way To Make The Best Of This Crisis-

And Make A Healthy Ongoing Profit Into The Bargain!”

Dear Streetwise Customer,

If you’re anything like me, you’re totally sick of hearing about Covid-19. 

And yet even if you’re not directly affected, it’s impacting on all our lives…And apart from a few people in the ‘right business’ it’s costing everyone money.  

And yet there is a possible silver lining to this very ugly cloud.

What this current crisis has given a lot of us, is time…

Time to think, time to prepare and time to implement money making strategies which are totally immune to the mayhem going on.

Are you free during the evening between about 6.00pm and 9.00pm…’Soap Opera Alley’ when the TV is full of rubbish you don’t want to watch and you can’t really escape to the pub anymore?

Well if you are, I’d like to introduce you to a way to make £100-£200 an evening at home from your computer screen which  anyone can learn fast – all while the masses are  overdosing on Weatherfield and Walford doom and gloom.

 As if we don’t have enough of that at the moment!

Let me just repeat, this method is immune to the financial mayhem we’re all currently experiencing. Not just immune…it actually thrives on it.

For full details, take a look HERE

This could be exactly what you need to fill both your time and your bank account in this very challenging period.

There’s no reason why you can’t come out of all this financially stronger than you went in, and have a money making strategy you can use for life.

Kind Regards

P.S This Strategy works just as well in good times as it does in bad. Take a look today…

As I look out of the window from where I’m writing this, I can see The Magna Science and Adventure Centre, the largest tourist attraction of its kind in Europe I believe.

You can do all sorts of interesting things in there, but one of the largest queues is at the full size JCB which you can have a go on. I was therefore interested to read about ‘Dig This’, a theme park in Las Vegas based on the construction industry.

Kids on both sides of the Atlantic are fascinated by building sites and heavy machinery. They can’t wait to get in there and give it a try. I think a similar theme park in the UK would find a ready and eager market. Apparently the Las Vegas park cost just $1 Million and is based on a 5 acre site.

Given the money involved this clearly not something for the uncommitted, but I reckon it could be a potential fortune maker for the right person. I understand the parent company behind the concept are looking to franchise out across the states.

Make One Like It

Have you ever had a favourite item of clothing which wore out and you wanted to buy another, exactly the same? If you have, the chances are that you couldn’t get one.

Styles and stock change, and unless it’s an iconic style of jeans, your favourite item will never be replaced by something not quite the same. So imagine if there was somewhere you could go where they would replicate your item exactly.

You’d have to pay a premium price of course, but it would be worth it to get what you really wanted.

Could there be an opening for someone to provide a bespoke service like this in the UK? Certainly there are plenty of skilled seamstresses and tailors available both here and in the Far East, where prices are very reasonable.

The job for the UK based entrepreneur would be one of marketing and co-ordination rather than anything technical. ‘You Bring It, We Make It’ could be your advertising promise.

You’ve heard about boarding kennels and you’ve heard about dog walking services, but how about something between the two? Gail Nord from New York, set up Playground Pups which seems to fill  the gap nicely.

Playground Pups is essentially a day care facility for dogs. Look on it as a crèche or nursery for dogs. Apparently the business, based in Manhattans upper west side is going from strength to strength and Gail is looking to open up a new location.

This is an idea which seems to make a lot of sense, particularly in urban areas with a lot of flats and apartments. Busy professionals often feel guilty about leaving their pets home all day while they go to work. This service solves the problem for them.

Might this work in your area? If there is a high concentration of pet owning professionals, I think it might. Not something to set up overnight, but there’s great expansion potential for this.

Small Pet Funerals

There are already services that deal with the disposal of the remains of larger pets like cats and dogs, but what do you do when something smaller dies? When our guinea pig dies it was a job for a shoe box and a shovel, but as with most things in life, it seems like there may be room for a premium service.

So how about looking into creating a burial kit for hamsters, rabbits, guinea pigs and the like? Even pet goldfish deserve a more dignified end than one involving a toilet flush. So there’s the idea…small pet burials. Who will be first to take this up?

It doesn’t seem so long ago that if you wanted to make your living as a teacher, you needed to get a job in a school, a college or give private lessons at home, or at the home of your students.

The advent of online services like Skype and Youtube has literally opened up the world to tutors and teachers. Just about anything that could previously only be taught in a face to face situation, can now be taught online.

Not only does this mean that your students can come from anywhere in the world, but it also opens up myriad new viable subjects and courses.

If you live in Rochdale, the chances of finding enough students locally, who are interested in learning ancient Peruvian, for example, are not high. But when you can garner your ‘class’ from the entire world, it becomes a much more viable proposition.

So is there something you could teach online- it could be a language, a skill or something else? If so, there could be people from the four corners of the globe, just waiting for your PC based class to start enrolling students

Food Preparation Profits

Go to Marks & Spencer food hall and for a premium price, you can have your vegetables prepared to within an inch of their lives. In fact, all there’s left to do is cut open the packaging and throw them straight in the pan.

Produce tends to be a lot cheaper in other outlets, but you have to wash, peel, cut and whatever else you do with veggies. You can probably tell that I don’t cook!

Anyway, what if (say) there was a stall in your local market which sold nothing. Instead, it took the fresh vegetables that market customers had just bought, pre-prepared them to the customers instructions?

M&S presentation, but at a little over market prices. Might such a stall prove popular by combining low prices with convenience? I’m not sure really, you’d need to try it to find out.

Imagine you were in danger of being sent to prison. It doesn’t bear thinking about does it? You’d feel frightened and vulnerable. You’d have little idea what to expect or how to deal with it. It’s this scenario that explains the growth of a little-known industry in the United States – prison consultancy.

A prison consultant is someone who has been to prison and ‘knows the ropes’. The role involves advising those facing jail on life ‘inside’ including personal safety, medical issues and coping day to day. High profile prisoners like Bernard Madoff have reportedly hired consultants.

I don’t know whether a similar service sector exist here in the UK, but if you are unfortunate enough to have experience of life inside, it could be something to think about. Thinking more widely though, this is further evidence of how you can turn a negative experience in your life into something positive.

Has something ‘bad’ happened to you. Could there be a business to be had in helping others avoid the same thing, cope with it if it happens?

Speed Dating For Baby Sitters

Given how vital it is that you get it right, it’s surprising how much time and care most people pay to selecting a babysitter. It’s often so difficult to find someone, that the first available person gets the job by default.

Katy Langhorst and Tara Harville-Fry from Danvers, Massachusetts have provided a solution to this problem in their own community by setting up SitterMixer.

Sitter Mixer organises events at which parents can interview 5-10 potential babysitters with a backdrop of marker-appropriate vendor stalls and refreshments. All the participants are eligible for door prizes and raffles. “The atmosphere is part cocktail party, part speed dating and part job flair,” Langhorst explained.

Parents and sitters both have to pre-register online. The fee is $39 for parents and $5 for sitters who must be 15 years old or older. The sitters fill out an application form. 

The business is apparently doing very well, with several events already successfully completed. Can you see any reason why this wouldn’t work in your town? I can’t.
