Automotive Income Ideas That Have Low Start-up Costs
If just a small fraction of the U.S. car and truck owners purchased a few specialized services for their more than 250 million vehicles this would still be a huge market. In fact, the market for small niche services that clean, repair or modify some aspect of these autos seems almost limitless. Here are 4 ways to earn extra income in the automotive markets.
Mobile Windshield Repair: This business will always be in big demand. Windshields will always need stone chip repairs to save the money and hassles of having a full windshield replaced at a shop. Even the insurance companies agree and are willing to chip-in (I know bad pun).
Author Martin Collins helped pioneer the Windshield Stone Chip Repair business. He claims that it is possible to earn $300 to $500 per day if you learn to market this service effectively. The start-up costs range from $500 to $1500 depending on the level of equipment you choose.
Mobile Car and Truck Detailing: Autodetailing is sort of like a regular car cleaning on steroids. Every inch of the vehicle is worked over with a fine tooth comb including even dusting the heater vents and in some cases steam cleaning the engine. Success in this type of business requires great attention to detail, terrific organization and efficient techniques. If you learn to detail cars consistently faster than the competition, (some experts claim to be able to detail a car dashboard in only 90 seconds), and to out-market the competition this can be a lucrative extra income idea.
The market for this service seems to be somewhat recession resistant because detailing can help a car sell faster and for more money in tough times. Author and professional detailer, Bob Keppel, claims that it is possible to start up this business on a shoe string budget part time. He also states that he can earn $300 per day in his market location because of his top cleaning efficiency, speed and marketing skills.
Make Deliveries With Your Car, Van or Truck: Advertise on Craigslist.org offering to pick up and deliver stuff on your way to and from work. Since you are planning to drive to work anyway this will take very little of your time and gas. Sometimes small printing companies located on the outskirts of medium to large cities need to keep their shipping cost down to a bare minimum in order to be competitive. They may love this unique creative solution to their shipping problems.
Put Advertising on Your Car: There are some national companies that are on the look-out for people that commonly travel on certain routes in certain cities to carry advertising signs on their car. There are even companies that will supply you with an entire new car covered in advertising. Often, all you have to do is buy your own gas, insurance and pay for routine maintenance. If you are not trying to impress your girlfriend with a cool ride, this can be a great way to reduce your cost of transportation. Now if you could only get your gal to pay for gas.
Be absolutely sure to seek advice from those that have already succeeded in these automotive ventures. Re-inventing the wheel is a fools game. Look for friendly experts to interview for first-hand advice and for eBooks and DVD training courses.
