At 51 I am looking at reinventing myself How????
Can anyone give me advice on restarting myself in work I enjoy and make great money. I had a great career in the digital color printing business fpr 25 years. I could not wait until Monday monings to get into work!!!!! Well the internet killed printing as we know it and like many outhers I closed my shop. So I went out and started a construction / Handyman business. This Business is very hard work and working with house wifes all day stinks. I am making ok money But I find myself very deperessed. I am looking for a type of business I can get my Heart back into. Thanks for any Help you might offer. Bill

I really think a library o book store will be more than perfect.
Internet never can kill a book or a good pencil.

If you really enjoyed the digital color printing business, why not set-up a web page and market artists that are looking for someone to help get their work out? There are many out there, that are EXTREMELY talented, but don't have the know-how and finesse to reproduce (prints) their work, and to market it. EBAY would be a perfect place also, and that was you could enjoy what you loved to do, use your knoweldge, and help others in the process, while providing those of us that love art, new talent to purchase that we otherwise may not know about, or see, and be able to support/purchase.

Hey, I know what you mean. I found some great ideas on this site. Maybe you can too.

Bill. Unfortunately, no one here could possible know you, your skills, your resources, your contacts, your community, etc. well enough to make that call, I'm sure there are lots of opportunities and it is just really important that you seek out and develop the right one, People can throw ideas out but I'm there going to just be a crap shoot without a whole lot more info. So, this is going to have to be an idea that comes from you and those closest to you.

I would add a few thoughts, one is maybe look at buying an existing business rather than starting from scratch. If you are 51 years old you don't want to spend the next 20 years getting a business up to speed.

Good luck and follow your dreams!

Have you explored custom print and graphics? A shop opened in my town recently that prints all sorts of graphic material. They do every thing from the static cling sports window stickers seen on the backs of mini vans to complete packages for race cars. They were able to restore and re-size an old photo so that it would fit into an antique oval frame. I think its work allot like what you were loving to do only using modern applications and materials. Good Luck !

Ed might have something there ....
but as a fellow 51 year old, rediscovering myself and looking to do some fulfilling work, I am headed back to school to take advantage of those things I didn't have time for earlier in my life.

Digital Printing isn't entirely dead. I deliver to three such places during my route every day. Perhaps in the grand scheme of things, the internet has taken some of the wind out of its sail, but it's still alive and well.

If that was something you enjoyed doing, why don't you open a shop of your own. Combine it with something else, such as a greeting card shop. Offer a special service of personalized greeting cards or specialize in Invitations or resume' design. I can't imagine that's something you can't do.

The hardest thing about reinventing yourself is taking that first step, so sit down and make a business plan and implement it.

Nothing says you can't keep the handyman business running on the weekends until you're moving ahead at full steam.

Create Digital Color Art and sell it.

Hi my name is Beau Williams. I started a small business 3 months ago. I named it Extreme Pest Control. I put everything I had into it to get it off the ground. What I do is telemarket home owners. My script goes like this:
Hi my name is beau with EPC I am calling to let you know that we will be spraying some of your neighbors houses on __________ Street this week. What we do is spray a six foot protective barrier all the way around the foundation of your home. It keeps out spiders, ants, crickets, beetles anything that crawls. We also put down a flea and tick treatment in your lawn that kills over 50 different bugs that live in your grass as well as spray around all of your windows, doors and sopheting to keep away bees, wasps, hornets and mud dobbers. We come out every two months and its guaranteed so if you ever have a problem just call us up and we'll come back out for free. There is no contract and it's only sixty eight for the first treatment and forty eight per treatment after that. So will you give us a shot?

Please understand this is just a basic sample of my script. I spray the houses in the daytime and telemarket at night from 5:00 to 9:00 that's when most people are home. My wife helps me when she is off of work from wal-mart. We are getting sales every day. Sales is a numbers game if you dial the numbers you will get sales. I know that $68.00 doesn't sound like much but if I get 50 sales in a week that's $3,400.00 that week and I spray them every 2 months. So every 2 months I get all of the new customers plus the ones that are due to be resprayed. It will grow bigger and bigger because business will double every 2 months. The only problem I have is I need capital to start a telemarketing room. I want to employe 10-20 telemarketers to telemarket the whole state of Indiana. If you don't think there is money in Pest Control then look at
Terminix or Orkin both very successfully companies. I Know that if I had someone like you self that would invest $20,000.00 Twenty Thousand Dollars I could turn it into streams of residual. I am not sure how things work with investors so I hope you take me serious. If nothing else I could could you help point me in the right direction? I know this business will I just need money to get things moving. I did try the better business bureau but they wont even look at me because I filed bankruptcy in 2004. Once again my name is Beau Williams. My Phone Number Is 812-718-
my email address is beau.williams@yahoo.com I hope that you are interested in this opportunity because I guarantee it will make money.
Thank You
Beau Williams beau.williams@yahoo.com

You could consider a home business. I have found one in the health and wellness industry that has only one product that is beneficial to everyone, but I am building my business by focusing on the Baby Boomers. This is a product in demand for them and doing very well. I enjoy helping others with health issues and make a very nice living doing it. I look forward to getting to work every day as well!

Go global. I did it. 29 countries in 4 years. Live and invest in foreign markets. Most countries have incentive programs that make it easy for you to explore and build businesses overseas. Blog about it on marble2.com, and the community helps you become a global insider. Becoming a popular blogger is a natural inroad to starting a web-based business. The time for organic, small one person entrepreneurs is perfect right now with the advent of web 2.0. It takes time, but every day you learn more fun stuff. The investment is tiny compared to what's required in most businesses.
