Hey guys, I am looking for some local business ideas so I can eventually leave my full time job. I have come up with a few:

- lawn care
- cleaning services
- mobile car wash
- mobile tire change
- carpet cleaning
- home painting

I was wondering if anyone has an experience or advice in this area or can point me in the right direction.

The problem with the ideas you listed is there is low barrier to entry. That devalues the work. Also, consider industries that are not seasonal. That being said, obviously some people make a living doing lawn care.

But consider learning a trade: HVAC, plumbing, electrician, welding, mechanic. Or learn some modern trades: web building, SEO, coding, A/V editing.

Then you have a marketable skill that increases the barrier to entry which means you make more money.

Also, is it Gravy here that is doing the gutter cleaning service? Check out what he has to say.

Thanks for the advice. I actually just finished going to a welding and metal fabrication school and about to start full time this week. I work 4 days on and 3 days off. I don't want to be welding for someone else forever.

My current plan is to become a better welder at work and save most of my earnings to put into a future business. I'm currently studying up on how to get a business set up.

@jtkazama

I have been doing offline service business (rain gutters, windows, pressure washing, roof cleans, solar panels, Christmas lights, etc), was able to quit my job and hit over 25k months with it.

We have a group called Home Service Biz Mastermind right now with a group of guys, all doing the same businesses. I highly recommend you hop in. The Telegram group and Facebook group are invaluable for learning this stuff and becoming profitable in a very short amount of time.

I'm not sure what kind of job you currently have, but in most cases, you can realistically expect to replace your jobs income in anywhere from a few days to a few months, depending on how hard you go.

Message me on Telegram if you want to get in. 619 919 3052 or @DavidStubbers
