Here is my business idea

I'll buy a decent 35mm film scanner for about $300 AU
I will then charge people a reasonable amount to digitize their family photo collection
I have about 200ish at home, so I am guessing alot of other people will have a similar collection.
For price I will probably work out how many I can do in an hour and charge $15-20/hr.
I will shill my home business online, facebook gumtree etc.

What do you guys think?
>>
whats the point of this service if the average guy can just buy a scanner and scan it himself

this service might be good for old people, who cannot into technology

Laziness. You can always profit on people's laziness.

Hey anon. We don't use that language when talking about our guests.

It's referred to as "guests looking to buy convenience"

I'm so sorry, and also I'm so sorry about the remark I made about the, uhh, "vertically challenged" gentleman earlier and his, ummmm, "generously proportioned, portability challenged" wife who was using the electronic mobility assistance apprentice.

Besides a Hippopotamus is a very noble animal, and it holds much reverence in certain African tribes. And pygmies are considered magical.

...maybe offering him the booster chair was a bit much though

But getting back on topic, are you offering any other services. You know you can go to Vistaprint or officeworks and get shit printed up all nice.

Give them like add ons and extras to make your business look more attractive.

Maybe a "blemish removal" service if you can be bothered with Photoshop?

I might be able to also do some sort of VHS to DVD thing if people are looking for that.

From what I have seen online not many people are doing 35mm scans, thats why I think I might be a good idea.

I know a little photoshop, so I could do that.

if you want to make this profitable, think about things that potential 'competitors' arent doing and what additional services you can add yourself to almost be the benchmark in this business.

Maybe even edit peoples photos for an additional fee ?

Won't work at your prices. Walmart does this with already developed rolls for $0.97 each. If you want it done in 1 hour the price jumps to $1.97.

Your target audience isn't going to pay $15 an hour for that, and they're going to shop walmart anyway.
