Ideas for businesses
    #7828786 - 01/03/08 06:43 PM (7 months, 30 days ago)

1. I could start up a "tase-a-person" business. Basically, I would go to parties and people would pay me money to tase me. I would have regular tasers and the ones that shoot out the little flying barbs (those would cost extra). A cool name would be, "Please tase me, bro".

2. Start up a non-profit charity and put myself in as a paid director. It would be a charity that paid for vasectomies for people. I think one of the biggest problems in this world is people breeding when they should not be. Imagine if you could contact my agency and we would set you up with a doctor and pay for the procedure and everything.

I'm totally serious about these. I think with #1 I could make a ton of money. With #2 I could make a decent amount but I'd also be doing a lot of good.

Anybody else have any business ideas?

I've had this one idea floating around in my head for some time. You might already have something like this in the city you live, but bear with me because where I live we don't have anything like it:

There are a lot of specialty wine stores, liquor marts, and whatnot. There are also a lot of beer vendors. However its pretty hard to find a nice, cold, imported beer without going to a bar and paying 7$ per beer. I was thinking of opening a specialty beer store. This store would stock lots of international flavours of beer, as well with many local favourites, we would pride ourselves on our selection as well as the fact that our beer will be cold when you buy it or you get a certain % discount on the beer. We would also sell a lot of beer paraphernalia such as home brewing kits, beer brand t-shirts, hats, beer bongs, etc, etc. We would have our own building (ie. not in a mall) so that we could be open late to cater to the late-night beer-runs. I haven't thought this particular idea out completely yet, but I figured I might be able to open a small beer-cafe in the store, where you can sit and read a newspaper or watch some sports while you sample a foreign beer you were considering buying a case of.

This store would be cater mostly to the middle-class beer drinkers who want a bit more variety and substance than two-liter bottles of shit-brew. Of course our staff would be trained and knowledgeable in all areas of beer, we'd excel in customer service and we'd cater to high-end business events. I think we could also attract the young-drunks with our beer-bongs and specialty beers. We'd also have a system where people can import beer through us if we don't carry it, not unlike the way a bookstore will bring a book in if you request it.

Again I haven't thought this through 100%, but I think there are many markets where a business like this could thrive, especially somewhere where there is a bit of culture mixed with hipsters and yuppies.

Whaddaya think?

Good idea. But, a lot of states have such things. There are big super-beer stores with gazillions of types of beers and kits and such. They don't exist in my state though because of very strict booze laws.

I own 50% of a self service tanning salon. All i have to do is clean the place, restock vending machine and exchange machine 3 times a week. Takes 4 hours total. And net me half a normal salary every month. Going to open up another by myself just as soon as i find a place with good rent/location.
Biggest problem is dealing with junkies destroying my machines trying to get the change during day time.

lol, yeah and it'd probably not seems like such a good idea the first time you get an order for 10 cartons of newports in the heart of the ghetto.
i'd be praying that they were planning on paying me.

This would be great if you could make other people have them. I'd totally give you a couple grand to neuter some of the idiots in the world.

Seriously, I spend most of my time thinking of business ideas I actually have a black book full of them. Everytime I get a good one I write it down. Even the book itself is a business idea, lol.

Some of them are just funny scams or jokes but most of them are seriously viable businesses. I've just been to much of a lazy fucker to actually do any of them!
