HOME PROFESSIONAL ORGANIZERS

Big firms have people from NAPO (www.NAPO.net) organize their business to be more effective, but the career doesn’t carry detailed licensing and training.

Homes and small firms need someone to reorganize and perhaps place on computer files documents, bills, and reports. Seniors downsizing to smaller residences need to organize and consolidate years of collectibles, photographs, and family management items. Home organizers know packing, computer storage, space planning, and record keeping methodologies

LOW COST HEALTH AND MEDICAL FRANCHISE

Most medical and elder care franchises are high cost due to the popularity of these fields in part due to the qualification by Medicare of some services. Here are some low cost ones:

MEDICAL BILLING COURSE is an online training program for a certificate in medical billing. It is the training rather than diploma which is probably the key element.

KIDS – KEY PRODUCTS

NICHOLS BRONZE (http://www.nicholsbronze.com/) We know we have included many firms that look for dealers to sell bronzed baby shoes, but for Floridians, this Sebring firm is the nearest. Check prices, shipping, and service in this category.

AWESOME SPECIALTIES INTERNATIONAL (http://www.awesomespecialties.com/) has a messy web site, but go to the kids’ personalized CD books and children’s section.

ONCE UPON A FAMILY (http://www.onceuponafamily.net/) uses dealers to sell high end personalized baby keepsakes, photo albums, scrapbooks, and other gifts

KIDS – IDEAS ABOUT OPPORTUNITIES

BABY BARRIER (http://www.babybarrier.com/) , a firm from Punta Gorda, Florida, where my Dade was business editor, produces baby barriers to keep kids and pets from falling in your pool. With so many resells, this is a good product in a mobile society.

PITTER PATS (http://www.pitterpats.com/) is a firm that makes foot and hand impressions of children in clay pottery. Most people advertise in the gift shops of hospitals and at toy shops.

STORK NEWS (http://www.storknews.com/) is a North Carolina firm that delivers giant wooden storks in the yards where babies are born. This is a firm that will work in most towns.

OPERATE SLUMBER PARTIES

We didn’t know whether we should put this in the business or creative category, but since Health and Beauty will attract a lot of people who like giving parties and having meetings of friends, we thought this was the ultimate niche enterprise. Slumber parties are gatherings where people buy lingerie and “interesting clothing.” They are geared to women, but I can see some male audience envolvement.

A good example to visit is SLUMBER PARTIES BY RENEO.

MAKE YOUR OWN PERFUMES

These are not the knock-off perfumes you see selling at flea markets across the land. The problem with that biz opp is not the product, but the reality that thousands of people are selling the product online and in small shops. BIO-BYTE is a firm that offers the opportunity of a person creating their own unique perfume. Take a visit.
