This is a very interesting post and I think I am a little ahead of you on this. I have started a local web design business of my own and have been in contact with a local computer repair shop and dropped off about 15 of my business cards.

My website for the web design business is geared toward startups or small businesses. In the next day or so, I will be meeting with a local electrician to build out his website as well.

So, this is right up my alley. Thanks for this.

*** wow! .. that's fantastic, Bob! ... web design biz -- you go for it! ... i must say design isn't exactly my forte so not to worry ... after having worked in the scientific arena -- it didn't help with 'design'... it was more with numbers, facts and more figures ...

yes, absolutely, there is a great need by small contractors in the trades who could use a helping hand in getting their services on line (plumbers, builders, carpenters, yes, electricians, reno-people, painters, installers and on it goes ... and many more surely) ...

so good on you for helping your local electrician to Success! ***

It was something I thought of about a year ago but finally took the plunge recently. I figured there is income potential with it as a supplement to my hourly job. And like you said. those with a serious trade could use the help. Especially if they aren't that great with computers and the Internet.

yes, you've sure got this! ... these talented, hard-working people generally are sole proprietors and always too busy working doing the jobs at hand and just don't have the time or inclination to get on a computer .. a mobile phone, yes, as that's part of their busy schedules to keep track of the work ... and when do they get a chance to enjoy some rest ... i had a plumber come by to do a fix it and he hadn't enjoyed a vacation in decades! ...

They are always working and have so many calls for repairs. You have to admit they make good money doing what they do. But, the catch is they have to keep doing to continue making that money.

A trade is great, but, the income potential for it is limited and they have to keep doing it. No passive income there... I feel a blog post for my website coming on... 🤪

... yup ... most 'employment jobs' don't provide ongoing ... people are trading their time for money -- that's the bottom line ... no freedom there ... simply financial enslavement, it's called ...

... yes, encourage you to go and blog about it .... financial freedom should be a given --- money is only a thought form, a synthetic construct under the guise of 'trading or exchange' for .... stuff! ... money for stuff ... how much do we really need? ...

... listen, this earth has provided everything freely for all ... i applaud our best pollinators, the worker bee, who works tirelessly and diligently giving us flowering plants, fruits & veggies.... and they have short life spans, maybe three weeks? ....anyway, all to say, why are humans stuck? ... not evolving? ... it's the money system ... and that needs to change .... what is the most important in a person's life? ....

All good questions... food for thought... thanks for the inspiration.

😀👍

.... happy to be of inspiration ... enjoy a wonderful day! ... :)

You too!!

Hello,
and thank you for sharing this good spark
indeed it's of good advance for all of us
here at WA to branch in!

Especially in those times,
where many local businesses have to get online,
this's certainly is a good project.

The best part is that our help to them is welcomed,
and needed, so it's a win-win for both parties!



... yes, it's more of an added spoke or 'branch' to any of our existing businesses ....

... and surely we can use what we've learned to apply and to help others in theirs ...

... Yes, win-win for everyone .... thanks! .... :)

Great idea! Thanks for sharing...

hi Rudy ... yes, our local businesses need more help than ever to get through this pandemic .... which local one for you that could use your on line help for marketing their service hours/products, etc. ? ....

Offhand, I don't know...not sure how to approach with an idea.

... then, you might want to review some of Jay's local seo webinars for the training that would help you ... and surely ideas would flow from there ...

.... especially with the times that we're in right now.... local businesses can use a helping hand ...

... suggest, perhaps, of a store that you like or enjoy shopping from locally? ...

.... keep well, stay strong ....all the best ... :)

Thanks, I'll do that...

... super! ... yes, enjoy a wee fresh air walk and check it all out ...

physical distancing is still our best protection .... keep safe! ...
