Painting Business - How To Move Anywhere in the USA and Get Instant Painting Business Profits

Do you ever get fed up of the area you live in? Have you been thinking about wanting to move to another state lately? What if you could move to a nice quiet town or a warmer climate?

If this is the case, I have some tips listed below for finding the best places to move and how to find income when you get there.

I used to think that if I ever got tired of living in cloudy, cold Michigan that it would be hard to relocate somewhere else. I thought this because all my painting customers are in the Kalamazoo area of Michigan.

But today, I realize that this not true. As a matter of fact, I know that I could relocate near to any big town and start getting painting business within 7 days and possibly 24 - 48 hours.

Because of being a house painter so long, (since 1991) and the marketing methods I use, I can be up and running instantly just about anywhere. All I would need is access to a paint store and just a few other small resources.

Having your own service business, especially your own painting business can give you financial security and stability. It can even make you quite wealthy. Plus, service-type businesses are needed all across the country.

Here are 6 things you would need to be profitable in your painting business if you decided to relocate say, to a sunnier and warmer climate:

1.) a dependable vehicle - it doesn't have to be fancy. It can even be a car. I worked out of my car when I first started my painting business.

2.) a few painting tools - a step ladder, a small extension ladder and a few other low-cost painting tools like a fluorescent painting light, a roller, a paint pole, a roller bucket, paint brushes, some drop cloths, a work radio, etc.

3.) a paint store - somewhere you can get quality paint, buy painting tools, establish credit, etc.

4.) possibly a helper - If you have a buddy to help you turn your jobs you can make just as much money twice as fast. Many painters do work on their own though.

5.) good information on estimating and advertising - here is the kicker. If you have had previous painting experience but are unsure about how to bid or how to drum up business on a low budget, you will need some good information from a reputable source (i.e. a successful painting business owner). Good estimating know-how will pay for itself over and over again.

6.) a cell phone - now days you don't need a land line anymore. You can use your cell phone and voice mail to receive customer calls. This is handy because you don't have to be at home to answer the phone. You can be on the job or lying on the beach somewhere and still get your calls or messages.

That is all that is basically needed to move anywhere you want in the USA and to have consistent cash flow for life. So if you get the 7-year itch or whatever that means, and need a fresh start, there you have it - a solid plan for financial success wherever you want to go.

The last final thing left to do is to decide where you would like to relocate to. One good way to figure out where the best places are to live is to go online to some chat rooms or forums. Talk to others to find out what states are the best to live in. Economically, Minnesota was rated number one last time I checked, but who would want to live there? That's colder than Michigan!
