Personal shopping business

Purchasing products in behalf of another person is a small but very lucrative business. This type of business is often offered by image consultants where they offer their services to individuals who want to have smart choices on clothes, shoes and other products. Becoming a personal shopper is not only for companies. It is a business that can be done by solo professionals.

There are two types of personal shoppers anyone can consider starting. The first option is for those who want a simple make over. For example, a person will hire an individual who could look for good clothes for a specific function. As already indicated, this is offered by image consultants. But if you're already known for choosing great clothes and showing an impresive taste in fashion, you can offer your services for a fee.
The second type of personal shopping: shoppers can offer their services to people who can't move around well. They just get the list of things to buy and the personal shopper does the rest. There are two ways these personal shoppers can earn. The first is on charging the client. Most shoppers charge a flat rate plus percentage on the products purchased.
