Treehouse Builder

Childhood is a magical time. And many parents are willing to spend a lot of money making their children happy, especially around the holidays. This past Christmas, I watched as one of my friends gave her children their very own treehouse. She had paid a local carpenter to build it while they were at school in a far corner of their yard, and she kept it hidden by a tarp she told the kids was protecting her bushes from the cold winds of winter. Christmas morning, she had removed the tarp and showed off their brand new treehouse.

Data Backup Service

Technology has made it possible to send something around the world in a matter of seconds, to collaborate on a project with individuals in multiple locations, and to gather an amazing array of information very quickly. But with all that technology comes new needs. One of the biggest and most important is the need to save important files and data regularly. Companies often backup their files every day, ensuring that no more than one day’s work is lost should something catastrophic happen.

Tree Service

Tree services are essential in times of high winds and storms, but there is also money to be made year round by offering a series of services:

• Tree trimming
• Tree removal
• Stump grinding or removal
• Arbor assessments
• Branch removal
• Emergency services

This business is great if you love working outside, but it does require a pretty hefty investment. You’ll need everything from chainsaws to backhoes plus the trucks and trailers to haul them. You’ll be able to make your money back quickly though because tree services charge anywhere from $150 to $500 to remove a single tree. If there are any special instructions or considerations (like a tree that’s really close to a building or if the owners want the wood chopped for firewood), you can raise that price by another 20% or more.

Handyman Service

If you are handy at average home repairs and have your own tools, a handyman service may be the perfect small business that you can open on your own. Handymen are needed all the time for a wide variety of projects, so you’ll need to be able to work confidently on many different types of repairs. The more skills you have - plumbing, electrician, roofing, carpentry, tile, flooring, etc. - the more people will hang on to your phone number as the only one they need. Consider taking a few courses from a professional to learn the trades you don’t already know.
