subject: Cloudy Headlights Are A Great Business Opportunity [print this page] You may not have noticed, but a lot of people have a big problem with their headlights. Over time, the lenses on most new cars become cloudy or foggy which greatly reduces their ability to produce adequate light for night driving. Next time you are in a parking lot, start counting the number of cars that have cloudy headlights and you will be amazed. Those cloudy headlights present an excellent low cost business opportunity for anyone with a desire to start a business.
Most people either don't realize that there are now products available that can restore headlights to like new condition or they don't feel comfortable in working on their own cars. The average retail cost for these products is about $25.00 and both of a cars headlights can be restored in about thirty minutes. If you decide to start your own headlight restoration business, you can purchase kits in bulk and get the price down even lower.
By purchasing the headlight restoration kits in a bulk pack, you can get your cost per vehicle to well below $20. What you charge your customers is up to you, but a realistic fee would be $50-$75 depending upon the socio-economic demographic of the area. For example, if you purchased kits in bulk at a price of $15.95, that's a profit, of $34.05-$59.05 for 30-minutes of labor, or $68.10-$118.10 per hour. Even after factoring the cost of materials, that would account for an income of $204.30-$354.30 per day with only 3-hours of work.
The better headlight restoration kits are easy to use and require no special tools. Finding potential clients is as easy as walking through the parking lots in your area and looking for vehicles with yellow, cloudy, foggy, headlights that need to be restored. Leave a card or brochure telling people they have a problem with their headlights that is probably making it very difficult for them to see while driving at night, and then let them know that you have a very affordable way to solve their problem.
Your satisfied customers will become a great source of word-of-mouth advertising for your business, as they will soon begin to see how many of their friend's vehicles have the same problem and they will send them to you. Starting your own headlight restoration business is an excellent low cost business opportunity with a very low start-up cost. Purchase a bulk pack of headlight restorations kits, a mister type water bottle, a few soft cloths and you are ready to go.
