Thinking about starting up a custom garage design shop. Basically we will come in and build whatever you need in your garage, millwork, custom painting, lift installs, pretty much if you can think it we can do it

Im a project manager in the demo field and my partner is a PM in the construction field so between the two of us we know all the right subs to get this to happen

what do you guys think?

 

Would you be doing this part time until you build up a bigger client base? I would go for it man. Remember surround yourself with a good team and people that you can trust. That way you can concentrate on building your business. I own a Moonbounce company and real estate company and an IT consultant company on the side. They have provided much needed savings for me in this down economy. In the end it's worth it to start your own business. Just make sure you have a good accountant.

 

Sounds good to me... do you guys offer "clean up" of old stuff? If not, it'd be a good idea.

Maybe offer a package deal.

We (you...) come in to clean up their **** and junk whatever they don't want. Then start to design a nice garage for them (maybe photoshop it first?).

As always, do some research on the market demand for this type of service in your area since you are going to be doing 'local' work. Good luck dude, 74% of millionaires are self made often starting from their own home, like my ex-roomate.

 

It would be a complete demo/build process, I am a demo sub after all ahaha, its only going to be a side thing for now until it picks up but my business partner and myself are pretty dead set on " 2 Design" or 2D for short

So if any of you guys need anything done to your garages let me know, estimates are free

 

Giving up the "night" business I see

 

No I couldnt, you're my best customer, no matter how hard I laugh and point, you always come back!

 

Right now is a great time to start up a business, its slow, people are not willing to spend a lot of money, however, that gives you time to slowly work into things, hopefully you'll have everything setup for when a year or 2... or 3 passes and the country makes a turn around.

 

Try and work up a few clients before you make anything official, see if you truely want to go through with it.

Just my .02 be very careful going into a business w/ partner if at all possible avoid that route

 

why exactly are you limiting your work to garages. I'm sure if you can build a garage, you can build many other things

 

I thought it was family to be weary of.

 

Sounds good thai when do I start?

 

that also, just seen too many businesses opened up as partnerships and crashed due to greed
