The problem it solves
Many aspiring entrepreneurs lack the knowledge and experience to run a successful estate sale business. Consulting can guide them through the initial stages and help them avoid common pitfalls.
How it makes money
This service could be offered on a subscription basis or through one-time fees for individual consultations. Workshops and online courses could also be developed.
Skills you need
Strong expertise in the estate sale industry, teaching ability, and good communication skills are crucial for providing effective consulting services.
The market, and why this works now
Facebook's recent updates to its Marketplace platform allow users to promote estate sales more effectively. This presents a viable channel for generating first revenue by offering targeted promotional services to individuals planning estate sales. Aspiring consultants may face challenges in building a client base due to a high customer acquisition cost if they rely heavily on paid advertising.
