Flea market ideas – your own Jewelery business

Hi, I have been doing research for a jewelery shop in Johannesburg relating to keywords and found some interesting facts relating to the jewelery business online.

Now if you are a home jeweler or a crafter that designs jewelery and then markets that jewelery for a profit – there are a few facts that I feel that I need to explain to you.

Small Jewelery business owners from home or on Flea markets / craft markets

Having your own Jewelery business is great, but for the vast majority of people who are owners of small jewelery businesses, they are experts at that side of their business and are not experts at the marketing side of the business.

It does not matter if you are already on a flea market or a small home business owner…

It will always be a problem for small business owners – they have to learn every aspect of their business, they are the book keeper, the secretary, the managing director, the sales representative and a whole lot more.

Unfortunately very few of us are good at all aspects of business. (I admit to being a huge failure in the financial department – I know what is going on as far as costs etc go, but have never been successful in keeping decent books after 30 years of self employment.)

Either way, what I have come here to tell you today on this post is some details that I uncovered about the jewelery business online.

If you are planning to use jewelery on flea markets or in your flea marketing ideas – then I suggest that you pay  a quick visit to the new page that I wrote up on flea markets and the jewelery business

Work From Home – Idea 2

and ice cream?

Work from home business Idea

Number Two.

This business idea is one that I have always been fond of because it involves food.

I love food.

Alcoholic Ice cream.

This version of the ice cream stall is based upon alcohol, but naturally you could twist it and develop it easily to fit into a mainstream market.

However the mainstream version is fairly common and not nearly as much fun as the alcohol one.

Now the reason I thought up this business idea stemmed from the fact that alcohol is very tightly controlled at shows and festivals. The person who acquires the overall rights to run the beer gardens and pubs does not want normal competition.

This is a given and I would do the same if I had paid a fortune to get sole rights to the booze at a show.

Now the good news is that there is a fuzzy line in the small home liqueur business. Due to the fact that there are often a lot of small liqueur businesses that trade full time on the show circuit they have wangles it that they are allowed to trade.

It is really just moonshine, or in my country mampoer or witblitz. Every country has its own version.

This idea of mine will need to get into a show under that guise. You will have to convince the organizers that you are really an ice cream and liqueur combination. Be very careful as to which choice of words you use to get a stall on these festivals. Then naturally you will have to comply with the laws that govern alcohol.

You sort that all out it is the idea that I want to get across to you.

This is what you do.

You create 20 or 30 very strange alcohol, liqueur, yoghurt, fruit, nuts, condensed milk, etc recipes.

You then give then very exotic names, and take brilliant pictures of them.

You must design a stall that lights up like a pinball machine, and it must have bright colors.

You have a creative range of non alcoholic ones.

Make an equally interesting kiddy range.

Try to book on two and three day shows, especially the ones where the visitors stay on the premises, like music festivals.

Make 10% of the concoctions very fancy and equally very expensive, this will make the normal ones not seem very pricy. At the same time you will occasionally sell some of the ridiculously priced ones.

So what you would have is a combination of a “milky-lane” and a cocktail bar.

I suspect that you will be busy right through the night.

Now if you take the idea a step further and register the names and the recipes, then you will be able to take the business the franchise route. Equally you could arrange to set up at popular cocktail bars and clubs, sharing the profits with that club, and that way you could train up teams of students to work a preprogrammed club system.

So, there you have the bare bones of a great business idea. Tell me what you have done with it.

Thanks for your interest.
