Pooper Scooper
One man’s poop is another man’s profit, and when there’s a poop problem, there’s someone willing to solve that problem, for a fee.
One of the hottest business opportunities around these days is starting a Doggie Pooper Scooper service. Just a quick check on how many pooper scooper related searches google has (a good way to see how many people are looking for solutions) shows there are over 191,000 page results dedicated to scooping poop, and 246,000 dog poop searches per month.
That’s a lot of poop!
So, besides being a lucrative business opportunity (low start up costs, no need for a college degree, and apparently a lot of people willing to pay someone else to scoop their dog’s poop), this segment of the business world seems to be a gold “mine” in more ways than one.
For example:
