Home Based Blinds Business OpportunityHow Stay home Moms are making big money with their own Blinds businesses. M.B. Gournay
As a National Wholesale supplier of window blinds, shades
and shutters, I have had the privilege of helping many men and women
start their own businesses. It is most satisfying to see the success of
our stay home moms who develop significant home based businesses in the
window treatment field. Many of our established and several of our
newest distributors are recognizing benefits well above their former
career incomes. And, they do this while exercising and spending time
with their new born and other young children. I just wanted
to take a few minutes to share the methods for their success and
describe the steps you need to take in order to achieve the same
success. Starting your own blinds business, the right way, will cost about $275 in most cases. Step
1: Goggle your state’s Secretary of State web page. Most offer online
applications to establish an LLC. This is a limited liability
corporation and is your protection to prevent business litigation from
attaching to your personal assets. Most states charge $100-$200 for the
filing. Step 2: Goggle Online Federal Tax ID Registration… and register your new LLC to get a Tax ID number. Step 3: Find your local State Sales Tax office or visit your State Comptroller’s web page for a re-sale certificate application. Now
that you have a business shell and all the needed government numbers,
you are ready to get some customers. Years ago, I started my business
in this same fashion. I made Flyers on bright colored paper and passed
them out daily to new homes under construction. I pushed my baby
jogger, logged a lot of miles, lost the baby weight and started making
money in just a few weeks. After you get a few customers, word of mouth
starts traveling real fast. You simply respond to the calls,
arrange a daytime meeting to review the color selections and take a 1”
steel tape measure so you can get perfect measurements. We have
detailed instruction on how to measure and install like a pro on our
website. Visit Us...
Then, you create a bid sheet from and Excel Template and fax, mail or
email the details to your prospective customer. When they are ready to
proceed, have them sign the proposal and deposit 2/3 of the bill.
Collect the final 1/3 after installation is complete. Collecting 2/3
generally insures that you have collected the full cost of the product.
The rest is your profit. A typical 20 blind home should net about $400
in profit if you or your spouse have the ability to install the blinds.
I was fortunate that my husband can install a blind in about 3 minutes
so we had plenty of $600 days… after he got home from work. |
