If you have a strong desire to secure more money for your family over the coming holidays, pay close attention. You see, many people proudly display their Christmas lights every year but hold a secret they don’t usually share with their neighbors. If you are like me, quite often during the holiday season when driving the family around you’ll go to those neighborhoods where the light show is spectacular. I discovered their secret years ago at a party.

A prominent doctor had a Christmas party in his home in an exclusive part of town. While enjoying the festivities my wife and I took a walk through the neighborhood and gazed at all the gorgeous Christmas lighting. We got back and commented to our host how beautiful the lighting was on all the streets in the area and he commented that several of the companies that come out each year compete unofficially against each other for the best lighting display.

When I remarked why his neighbors would hire someone to do the lighting for them, he looked at me as if I had three heads on my shoulder. My wife later commented that there was no way any of the people in this neighborhood making half a million a year would risk going up on their roof for the sake of Christmas lighting and decorations. Many of his neighbors would not think twice about spending $3,000 or $4,000 to get the job done properly.

That’s when I understood why there is over $200 million a year spent on professional Christmas lighting installation. The truth is, if someone is busy, stressed out, or just plain tired, they don’t want the headache of putting up Christmas lighting if they can hire someone to do it for a few hundred dollars. If they have a huge home, that makes matters even worse but the job even more lucrative.

So, if you thought that every one of your neighbors actually do put up their own Christmas lighting, you would be in for a pleasant surprise. The more affluent the areas, the less likely it will be that they’re putting up their own Christmas light display.

If you want to make $10,000 a month during the holiday season I suggest you take a close look at becoming a commercial Christmas lights installer. The market is definitely out there for that service and growing more each year.

A great way to make money around Christmas time is to install Christmas lights for homeowners and businesses. In fact, you can make enough money in just a couple months to last you the entire year. However, many people think they need to join an existing Christmas light company and become a franchisee. This is isn’t true. In fact, you don’t need a franchise to start your own Christmas light installation business.

Just about everybody loves Christmas lights. That’s why they are on homes, businesses, and in public places. But many people and businesses don’t have the time to put up their own Christmas lights. The holiday season is just too busy. This is why a Christmas light installation business is a great business to go into.

There is a lot of people right in your own neighborhood who would be willing to pay someone else to put up Christmas lights for them. There is also a lot of business in your city or town who would pay to have the outside of their business decorated. You can be that person who does the decorating and makes all the money. You can make well over $1000 a day every day for just about two months.

It’s true that there are Christmas installation businesses who will allow you to become one of their franchises. However, they will charge you a lot of money to become a franchise and then you’ll also pay them royalties every single year. It just isn’t worth it. (more…)
