Setting up Your Personal Concierge Service

• Child care (supervision, chauffeuring)
• Errand service (banking, dry cleaning, delivery, pharmacy pickup, etc)
• Dining and entertainment (private tours, reservations, buying tickets)
• House-sitting services (gardening, checking on teens, keeping refrigerator full0
• Pet Care Service (walking, feeding, grooming)
• Corporate and executive assistance (transporting clients, planning meetings and events)
• Office help (copying, faxing, filing)
• Shopping Services (returning items, groceries, gift-wrapping and purchasing)
• Maintenance & repair service (getting quotes, arranging service, providing access)

These are just a few of the many services that you can provide as a personal concierge. Start scouring your neighborhoods, including hotels, hospitals and businesses and you’ll be surprised at the many new clients you may pick up along the way. Always, remember to leave your business card. Advertising on the internet is also a great way to find new clients for your personal concierge business. LINK....
