 A prospective kitchen table enterprise that can offer various options for those seeking engraving whether for decorative, celebratory, or commemorative reasons, or else simply seeking to have their personal possessions engraved and consequently made less likely prospects for the opportunist thief. Engraving can take many varied forms from etching onto glass, to simply printing names and addresses onto key rings, making commemorative plaques, and so on. Consult craft magazines for essential equipment. Your customers will come from all sections of the community, from private individuals, to jewelers shops, clubs and societies, sports centres and so on. Here the demand is for high quality craftwork, which if it can also come at a realistic price, will command a steady stream of eager customers. As for so many other craft and art services, a wealth of 'how to' books are available to guide the novice through to professional status as a picture framer. Equipment need not eat too heavily into your capital and can be located in most of the major craftwork and model making magazines on the newsagents' shelves, as well as in advertising publications. Customers might come from the general public, via advertisements placed in the press or in shop windows. Alternatively you could provide a service to local artists and art shops, photographers, antique shops selling antique prints, print and poster shops and so on. The service provided is that of allowing others to have their mail forwarded to your own or your business address. Often the reason is one of protecting the customers' own privacy; at other times it's because customers live in accommodation that isn't their own, and from which they have no absolute entitlement to operate a business. All you do is allow customers to use your address, following which you will have their mail forwarded to them on a prearranged basis. Take a look at the many advertisements offering such services in local papers, and the scope will no doubt become apparent, particularly where an attractive city centre or decidedly rural address can be offered. It may be that certain customers will have particular requirements; some might want their post forwarding daily; some by recorded post; some will be happy with a weekly delivery. Your charges will be dependent upon what specific requirements might be expressed. Contact a few already established accommodation address services for details of what charges and special facilities they operate. Then take the best from each.
