    As we discussed in the previous parts, having a great
    work history and ethic does not guarantee that you will
    retain your job. There are many culprits to blame, such
    as changing economic times, technology replacing humans
    works, and outsourcing work to foreign companies.

    The only real way that you ca retain your job is not put
    yourself in the position to be fired. This may seem
    impossible, but is really quite simple. You have to
    become your own boss.

    Perhaps you are not worried about loosing your job, but
    you realize that you will never have the chance to advance
    any further in the company you are working for.
    Your monetary resources are capped out, and you will not
    be able to provide any better of a lifestyle for you and
    your family unless your pay increases. Again, the only
    way you will be in total control of your finances is to
    become your own boss.

    The only way to be the boss is to start your own business.
    “But I do not have very much money, if any at all.” you say.
    Well in today’s culture there are quite a few businesses
    that can be started for little or no money at all.
    This is not a get rich quick scheme, I am not saying that
    you will be making five grand a month from the very
    beginning, but I am telling you, that no matter the amount
    of money that you have, you should still be able to start
    a business without much fuss.

Here are some more examples of businesses that require
little or no money up front:

Apartment and Rental House Preparation

    Local real estate agencies that host rental properties as
    well may hire make ready services for their properties.
    The best thing about this job is the fact that they typically
    supply all the tools and materials needed to complete the job.

    Make ready services complete not technical services such
    as cleaning, painting, and small handy work
    (replacing door handles, light bulbs, etc).

    Talk with your local apartment complexes and real estate
    agencies. You may also consider placing an ad in your
    local newspaper as well.

Restaurant Delivery Service

    Restaurant deliverers, take orders by phone for local
    restaurants, go pick up the food, and then deliver the
    food the office or home of the person wanting it.

The only thing you will need is the vehicle in which to
transport the food.

    You may want to consider a detailed flyer stating the
    businesses you will pick up from, or a website that contains
    the complete menus of each. Talk with local businesses about
    possibly referring you to their customers.

By collecting a delivery charge and tip, the owner makes a
substantial amount of money.

Valet Parking

Valet parking is simply the act of driving a person vehicle
to a designated area to save the walk.

    Local businesses may need valet parking at different times.
    You will want to contact then so they know that your
    service are available.

    Businesses that offer event planning may also have an
    interest in your services and may call whenever you are
    needed.

    No only will you receive a fee from the business for
    providing the service, but the majority of people who
    use valet parking will pay a tip as well.

Just let your local businesses that your services are
available.

Thanks For Your Time and Come Back Soon!
