Finding opportunities during the recession

As the country has seen an economic downturn over the past few years, there has been a rise in the number of people who are turning to side businesses to earn some extra money. There has also been an increase in people who have started up businesses as a result of losing their job, or a spouse losing their job due to the economy.

And when it comes to getting your new customers, from handymen to lawn care services, catering to babysitting . . . one thing is a constant: MAKE A GOOD FIRST IMPRESSION. Start small. Having some professional-looking business cards to hand out is a great idea that won't cost you a fortune. Many restaurants and coffee shops have boards that you can pin up your business cards for customers to take. Very inexpensive advertising!
