How do I start up a personal shopper business?

Answer by  RunawayJim (964)

It is probably difficult unless you start on a small scale with fliers and keep it local. If you are trying to do it on a big scale, then you probably have to hire someone to make a web site or pay for advertising. I would try to do it small first and spread after that.

Start with a business plan that includes a marketing strategy. Who'll you shop for? How will you market and advertise your services? A business plans fleshes out all the details.
