I have 2 businesses on the side in addition to my regular job.
The first one is Southern Design Services and I design Custom homes, shops, barns, carports, ETC.
The second business is Makin Plans Charters and I offer Inshore fishing, Nearshore fishing, Beach trips to secluded spots, sunset cruises, etc.
The house plan business the last few years has really taken off. I have had to start turning work down so I can go fishing more.

Hanging ceiling fans, if you are near population.

As soon as I post on FB "I'm taking small carpentry/building jobs for the summer", I fill up pretty quick. Usually have to end up turning work down when school starts back in the fall. Same story every time. Had a guy come look at it and never returned, or someone never came back to finish.

Been in Lawn care for over 35 years now. Its been a looong time since I made 30/cut. I can’t step on a yard now for under 60/cut. There is a lot of competition out there but its not too hard too provide better quality service than 99% of the competitors. Thats how I stay successful. Where are you located??

Sorry just saw u posted your location. You probably already know this but target high end residences around there and local businesses. If you do a as outstanding job you should have plenty of ā€œ Word of mouthā€ business. My daughter is at Auburn and I do need someone to do some things at her trailer from time to time, especially blowing off the roof. My number is 205-317-8076. Text me if you are interested and we can set something up. Thanks.

Where I now live most people have long gravel driveways. A recently retired friend of mine couldn’t find someone to level his so he bought a little land plane he could pull with his sxs. All it took was one day of people seeing him work on his drive and next thing he knew, he was in business. He now has tractor with a 6’ plane along with safety signs and cones because he has several HOA’s under contract. He’s almost got me hooked on getting a small rock spreader truck because it’s needed badly in the area and I have a place to store a couple hundred yards of rock and equipment to load it.

I think those could keep a man busy.

A good handyman , that will show up and do quality work will have all the jobs he wants. People nowdays don't know how to do stuff around the house and/or don't have time.

Example: there's a mother and son team around Jackson Co that hangs blinds. The new construction contractors keep them busy. Blinds are easy and really go up fast once you do a few and figure out the short cuts.



"Why do you ask"?

Too many people spend money they don't have , on things they don't need, to impress people they don't know.

This may be completely off your radar, but high school (and youth as well for that matter) sports officials are a dying breed. I currently call HS baseball and volleyball in my area and with the numbers of officials either getting out of it or not interested, you can call sports almost year round within the state of Alabama. I don't call as much youth or travel as I did in the past, but if you're willing to hustle and take assignments regularly then you can call almost daily somewhere.

Hats off to you, buddy. My boss has done a ton of it for years and has tried to get me to give it a shot, but it’s just not in my wheelhouse. Aside from that, I just don’t think I have the patience to deal with parents these days. LoL.

I umpire baseball too and he is correct. It ain’t for everyone though. But our associate used to carry 115 umpires and we are down to 80-85. They are about to work me to death lol.

Power washers and grass cutters a dime a dozen here don't know how any of em make a profit because of all the competition. Most of them do pretty sloppy work though.
