How To Make Money Selling Services
You need to define a service which you can provide which is attractive to customers and will make them want to buy from you. It is a good idea to have references and/or testimonials showing you can deliver what you promise - so you may need to give away some initial services at free or low cost - in order to build a client list.
If you do not have an idea for a service here are some possible ideas:
Advantages - Customers are purchasing from you - if they like your service, you can offer them additional products/services and sell them those too, later.
Disadvantages - That maximum amount of services that you can deliver is limited by your time availability (or you will need to hire employees once you get going).
- Customer Service - you need to devote at least part of your time to customer service (answering questions etc.)
