With the job market becoming ever more competitive, candidates need to do whatever they can to secure an all-important edge. You can get someone to help with the application process, but what about the interview itself?
Certainly there are plenty of books available on interview technique, but there’s no substitute for practice.
If you have experience of interviewing people, it seems there’s an opportunity to set up a service providing mock interviews. In fact you needn’t necessarily have the interview experience yourself. You could act as a co-ordinator- subcontracting the interviewing to specialists in the field in which candidates are seeking work.
So for example, you could recruit a panel of interviewers from the fields of accountancy, law, sales, marketing, engineering, retail etc who would be paid a fee to put your customers through a mock interview.
This is a service which could be set up without a great deal of outlay, and with minimal space requirements. All you’d need is a small office.

More Direct Sales Good News
We’ve discussed before how direct sales organisations like Avon are enjoying a boom in sales and a big rise in the number of agents. Further evidence of the trend is supplied via Mary Kay cosmetics in the United States who signed up a record 165,000 new freelance sales reps.
This seems to be a change precipitated by the economic downturn-people are looking for a low-hassle way to make some extra money and companies like these provide it.
From the companies point of view, it’s also good news. They get a company representative who doesn’t earn a penny until they sell, plus access to all their contacts.
Might the direct sales agent business model be applicable to your business, venture or idea. If so, then now would be a good time to put it to the test.

“Here’s One Way To Make The Best Of This Crisis-
And Make A Healthy Ongoing Profit Into The Bargain!”
Dear Streetwise Customer,
If you’re anything like me, you’re totally sick of hearing about Covid-19.
And yet even if you’re not directly affected, it’s impacting on all our lives…And apart from a few people in the ‘right business’ it’s costing everyone money.
And yet there is a possible silver lining to this very ugly cloud.
What this current crisis has given a lot of us, is time…
Time to think, time to prepare and time to implement money making strategies which are totally immune to the mayhem going on.
Are you free during the evening between about 6.00pm and 9.00pm…’Soap Opera Alley’ when the TV is full of rubbish you don’t want to watch and you can’t really escape to the pub anymore?
Well if you are, I’d like to introduce you to a way to make £100-£200 an evening at home from your computer screen which anyone can learn fast – all while the masses are overdosing on Weatherfield and Walford doom and gloom.
As if we don’t have enough of that at the moment!
Let me just repeat, this method is immune to the financial mayhem we’re all currently experiencing. Not just immune…it actually thrives on it.
I just opened an email from a reader of my online newsletter, which gave me cause to think consciously about something, that up until now has been active on a sub-conscious level. Here’s what he said:
“I think the fact you present your public face ~ and also in your newsletter, you outline the fact that you are also human and aren’t afraid to present your vulnerable side when appropriate~ helps.”
I think what he meant – but was perhaps too polite to say – is that I’m prepared to let everyone know what a plonker I really am. And when I think about it, he’s right. Let me tell you why…
When I was growing up, and in the period before I started to have some business and financial success, I didn’t know any millionaires. I didn’t even know anyone you could describe as wealthy. Everyone I knew was just like me – or not far from it. The richest person I knew ran the local greengrocer’s. That gives you some idea of what I’m talking about.
Today, I know a lot of wealthy and successful people, and there’s definitely an important lesson there. But it’s one for another day. Because, today I want to talk about something else.
You see, because I didn’t actually know anyone who had accumulated wealth, ‘the rich’ were a bit of a mystery to me. And there’s not a great deal of difference (both literally and linguistically) between mystery and mystique.
The information and impressions I had came from newspapers, glossy magazines and TV. And when presented in these selective environs, you don’t really get a true or accurate picture. Everyone who’d achieved financial success seemed impossibly sophisticated or charismatic or glamorous or educated or skilled or…or…some other thing that I wasn’t.
And it was all a bit off-putting and demotivating. When you aspire to something, the first stage is to believe it’s possible. If you see other people who’ve already done it – people who share your background, imperfections and insecurities ~ then that’s very powerful in persuading you that you can do it too.
If you see people with whom you have little in common, well then it makes it seem all the harder and more distant.
Once I started to achieve some success, and got to meet others who’d done the same, I realised that like me, there was nothing intrinsically special or unusual about them. The difference was in what they’d done. How they’d played the cards they’d been dealt, rather than what they were.
And so when I got the opportunity to communicate with people who were looking to move forward with their lives, it just seemed natural that I would present things as they are, rather than perpetuating myth and mystique. If you want to give people the best chance of following in your footsteps, why would you do any other?
I wouldn’t want to mislead you though ~ there are limits to my honesty…
If you think that what I reveal in this book represents the extent of my inability, ineptitude and failings, you’re wrong. I do retain a modicum of self-respect which I fear would disappear forever with full disclosure. And if I told you everything, I don’t think you’d bother reading a damned word I wrote, ever again.
And that would never do.
Kind Regards
John Harrison

As I look out of the window from where I’m writing this, I can see The Magna Science and Adventure Centre, the largest tourist attraction of its kind in Europe I believe.
You can do all sorts of interesting things in there, but one of the largest queues is at the full size JCB which you can have a go on. I was therefore interested to read about ‘Dig This’, a theme park in Las Vegas based on the construction industry.
Kids on both sides of the Atlantic are fascinated by building sites and heavy machinery. They can’t wait to get in there and give it a try. I think a similar theme park in the UK would find a ready and eager market. Apparently the Las Vegas park cost just $1 Million and is based on a 5 acre site.
Given the money involved this clearly not something for the uncommitted, but I reckon it could be a potential fortune maker for the right person. I understand the parent company behind the concept are looking to franchise out across the states.

Make One Like It
Have you ever had a favourite item of clothing which wore out and you wanted to buy another, exactly the same? If you have, the chances are that you couldn’t get one.
Styles and stock change, and unless it’s an iconic style of jeans, your favourite item will never be replaced by something not quite the same. So imagine if there was somewhere you could go where they would replicate your item exactly.
You’d have to pay a premium price of course, but it would be worth it to get what you really wanted.
Could there be an opening for someone to provide a bespoke service like this in the UK? Certainly there are plenty of skilled seamstresses and tailors available both here and in the Far East, where prices are very reasonable.
The job for the UK based entrepreneur would be one of marketing and co-ordination rather than anything technical. ‘You Bring It, We Make It’ could be your advertising promise.

You’ve heard about boarding kennels and you’ve heard about dog walking services, but how about something between the two? Gail Nord from New York, set up Playground Pups which seems to fill the gap nicely.
Playground Pups is essentially a day care facility for dogs. Look on it as a crèche or nursery for dogs. Apparently the business, based in Manhattans upper west side is going from strength to strength and Gail is looking to open up a new location.
This is an idea which seems to make a lot of sense, particularly in urban areas with a lot of flats and apartments. Busy professionals often feel guilty about leaving their pets home all day while they go to work. This service solves the problem for them.
Might this work in your area? If there is a high concentration of pet owning professionals, I think it might. Not something to set up overnight, but there’s great expansion potential for this.

Small Pet Funerals
There are already services that deal with the disposal of the remains of larger pets like cats and dogs, but what do you do when something smaller dies? When our guinea pig dies it was a job for a shoe box and a shovel, but as with most things in life, it seems like there may be room for a premium service.
So how about looking into creating a burial kit for hamsters, rabbits, guinea pigs and the like? Even pet goldfish deserve a more dignified end than one involving a toilet flush. So there’s the idea…small pet burials. Who will be first to take this up?

It doesn’t seem so long ago that if you wanted to make your living as a teacher, you needed to get a job in a school, a college or give private lessons at home, or at the home of your students.
The advent of online services like Skype and Youtube has literally opened up the world to tutors and teachers. Just about anything that could previously only be taught in a face to face situation, can now be taught online.
Not only does this mean that your students can come from anywhere in the world, but it also opens up myriad new viable subjects and courses.
If you live in Rochdale, the chances of finding enough students locally, who are interested in learning ancient Peruvian, for example, are not high. But when you can garner your ‘class’ from the entire world, it becomes a much more viable proposition.
So is there something you could teach online- it could be a language, a skill or something else? If so, there could be people from the four corners of the globe, just waiting for your PC based class to start enrolling students

Food Preparation Profits
Go to Marks & Spencer food hall and for a premium price, you can have your vegetables prepared to within an inch of their lives. In fact, all there’s left to do is cut open the packaging and throw them straight in the pan.
Produce tends to be a lot cheaper in other outlets, but you have to wash, peel, cut and whatever else you do with veggies. You can probably tell that I don’t cook!
Anyway, what if (say) there was a stall in your local market which sold nothing. Instead, it took the fresh vegetables that market customers had just bought, pre-prepared them to the customers instructions?
M&S presentation, but at a little over market prices. Might such a stall prove popular by combining low prices with convenience? I’m not sure really, you’d need to try it to find out.

Ever wondered what it takes to create a hit record?
According to Taio Cruz, who wrote Umbrella, which was a chart-topping hit both here and in the United States, it’s very easy to explain. He argues that the two key ingredients are simplicity and repetition.
If you analyse the most successful songs they are choruses of four or five words and three notes, repeated.
To quote Cruz: “The audience can easily be distracted, so you want something they can sing along with immediately. It’s not rocket science.”
He was talking about writing a song, but he might just as easily have been talking about writing an advertisement.
Analyse any successful advertisement and you will find simplicity high on the list of attributes. The words used are simple and easy to understand.
The message and offer will be clear. It will be readily accessible through an enticing headline which immediately draws readers in and stops them becoming distracted by something else.
Once they’re there, it will retain their interest by repeating the ‘hook’ which got them there in the first place. Maybe the words will change a little (this is an advertisement after all, not a song) but the underlying message will remain.
It won’t attempt to confuse them by going off at a tangent, or changing the message ~ any more than a hit song is likely to divert off into a second chorus.
In an increasingly complex world, simplicity is like a breath of fresh air to overloaded brains. Simplicity works in music and it works in marketing. But simple and easy are not the same thing. Simplicity rarely comes easily…
Which is why in just about every field, a fortune awaits anyone who can create simplicity from complexity.

Imagine you were in danger of being sent to prison. It doesn’t bear thinking about does it? You’d feel frightened and vulnerable. You’d have little idea what to expect or how to deal with it. It’s this scenario that explains the growth of a little-known industry in the United States – prison consultancy.
A prison consultant is someone who has been to prison and ‘knows the ropes’. The role involves advising those facing jail on life ‘inside’ including personal safety, medical issues and coping day to day. High profile prisoners like Bernard Madoff have reportedly hired consultants.
I don’t know whether a similar service sector exist here in the UK, but if you are unfortunate enough to have experience of life inside, it could be something to think about. Thinking more widely though, this is further evidence of how you can turn a negative experience in your life into something positive.
Has something ‘bad’ happened to you. Could there be a business to be had in helping others avoid the same thing, cope with it if it happens?

Speed Dating For Baby Sitters
Given how vital it is that you get it right, it’s surprising how much time and care most people pay to selecting a babysitter. It’s often so difficult to find someone, that the first available person gets the job by default.
Katy Langhorst and Tara Harville-Fry from Danvers, Massachusetts have provided a solution to this problem in their own community by setting up SitterMixer.
Sitter Mixer organises events at which parents can interview 5-10 potential babysitters with a backdrop of marker-appropriate vendor stalls and refreshments. All the participants are eligible for door prizes and raffles. “The atmosphere is part cocktail party, part speed dating and part job flair,” Langhorst explained.
Parents and sitters both have to pre-register online. The fee is $39 for parents and $5 for sitters who must be 15 years old or older. The sitters fill out an application form.
The business is apparently doing very well, with several events already successfully completed. Can you see any reason why this wouldn’t work in your town? I can’t.

As far as I know, Marie Antoinette never had cause to dirty her hands with the sordid matter of commerce. Well, when you’re queen, you don’t do you? But if she had, I think she may have had a head start (no pun intended) on a lot of others setting out on the same path.
You see, there’s one thing that an enormous number of would-be entrepreneurs waste time on – even today. It’s something that rarely bears fruit. But it distracts so many from the real task in hand. In fact for many, it becomes the task in hand.
Anyway, here’s what Marie Antoinette said, sometime in the mid 1750’s…
“There is nothing new, except what has been forgotten.”
Marie Antoinette realised that there was nothing new back in the middle of the 18th century, but if the communications and correspondence I have with people in the early 21st century are anything to go by, this isn’t a commonly-held view – even today.
Everyone seems to be looking for something new ~ a new product, a new service, a new sales technique…a new something. Now I’m not quite as unequivocal as the cake-promoting former queen of France. I wouldn’t agree that there is ‘nothing’ new ~ but what there is, is little and far between. What’s more, fully exploiting and protecting it, is way beyond the wit and resources of the lone entrepreneur.
If, by chance, you do stumble across something truly new and ground breaking, it will be copied, stolen, ripped-off ~ call it what you will ~ faster than you can draw breath. And there’ll be very little you can do about it. The search for something new is almost always fruitless – whether you happen to find it or not.
A far better approach is to look at what already exists, but has been forgotten, overlooked or undervalued. It’s there in abundance, and yet there’s very little competition in the race to discover it and convert it into cash. You might not be able to use it exactly as it is.
It may need a little fettling. But it’s a lot easier than trying to find and exploit something new. And when you do it that way, you operate under the radar of the sharks who are lying in wait for anyone who does strike lucky, and discovers something genuinely innovative.
So forget the new and remember the forgotten. It’s worked for me on many occasions, and I’m certain it can work for you too.

On the face of it, fishing seems a pretty simple activity – you need a rod, a line and some bait. Okay, there’s a bit more to it than that, but like all activities with a big following, it’s attracted the attention of a host of entrepreneurs, keen to cash in on the fact that participants are prepared to pay a lot for something they think will give them an edge.
The latest thing I’ve seen is something called the Fish Eyes Rod and Reel. Google it if you’re interested, but what the product does in essence, is place a small camera right above the bait, so you can see when the fish is about to bite.
Needless to say this is an American idea, and it sells for less than $80, which seems cheap to me. Not sure if this is available in the UK yet, but it sounds like it’s something that would sell well.
When you’re looking for an opportunity to make money, always look at the markets first and products second. Activities like Golf and fishing are ideal because of the large number of participants. Launching a product aimed at lacrosse players would be more tricky!

Restaurant Cooking Classes
There are a number of restaurants in the US which utilise the ‘down time’ in their kitchens (usually mornings) to run cooking classes for the public. It makes perfect sense.
There’s no need to set up a special classroom-everything you need is already in situ, and it makes additional use of an under-used resource. We can take a couple of things from this I think.
The first thing to consider is whether you could organise or co-ordinate, something similar here in the UK. There are thousands of restaurants with spare capacity which would welcome the additional revenue that something like this would bring.
No need to own a restaurant yourself. You could simply market the courses and reach an arrangement with restaurateurs in your area.
The second thing to consider is the wider issue of spare capacity. Do you have spare capacity or an under-utilised resource in your business, and could you make some additional revenue by renting it out during slack periods?

‘The most successful letter I wrote…and one of the shortest at two pages of A4…has pulled in over £5 Million so far, and it’s still coming in. I wrote that one way back in 1998 – in an afternoon!’
– John Harrison Streetwise Publications
There is a saying…
You Are One Letter From Retirement…
…and it’s true.
But unless you understand what kind of letters the saying is referring to, you could be mistaken in thinking that it’s nothing more than a load of old bunkum.
Seriously?
How can anyone make a lot of money writing letters?
Well I am here to tell you that it isn’t bunkum it isn’t bunkum, it is true.
Writing letters can in fact, make an incredible amount of money and help you to retire early with more money than you believe is possible.
Wealth Is In The Words
Why The Pen Is Mightier Than The Sword
The letters in question are not ones you send to your gran, no, these are the ones which people will pay several thousands of pounds to have written.
Sometimes tens of thousands of pounds. And in some cases, the writers of these specific letters will be paid an ongoing percentage of the sales, which have resulted in hundreds of thousands of pounds, and at times, millions of pounds for the writer.
The letters which I am referring to, are sales letters.

Writing sales letters and sales copy DOES NOT require a lot of skill.
At least, nothing which you cannot easily learn from other people.
As long as you can talk and write in good – yet basic English, then you can become a well paid sales letter writer.
In fact, it pays more if you are not an English professor or literature mastermind.
The majority of sales letters need to communicate with the general public and so they need to be written in basic conversational English.
Sales letters are not trying to win awards for literature or be listed on a Best Sellers List. The writers are not out for status or awards, they want results, planned results.
They write their sales letters to make money. Either directly from the sales letter or indirectly further down a funnel which the sales letter has sent a reader.
Sales letters are written in a way which excites the reader to take action. That action could be to:
Buy a product
Sign up for a free product or service.
Join a newsletter.
Make a phone call or contact someone.
Hire a person or service.
Directly or indirectly, the sales letter is written to generate money. They are designed to get a result. The more results the better.
Using tried and tested principles like A.I.D.A, or the new improved A.I.D.P.A as I prefer to use, the sales letter writer can generate thousands, tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands, and even millions in sales.
One letter can generate enough money for the average person to retire from their job… several times over.
The best copywriters can charge up to £30,000 to write one sales letter for a client… sometimes more.
If the product the client is selling is a high ticket item and is expected to earn hundreds of thousands or even over a million in sales off the back of a strong sales letter, the client would not think twice about paying a copywriter the same amount of money for one sales letter which an average worker would earn in one full year of employment.
A sales letter can take as little as a day to write, sometimes less. But, if there is research required, maybe a week or two…it all depends on what you are selling, who you are selling too and what the client wants.
But who would seriously complain at doing a couple of week’s work for the equivalent of a year’s wage?
You could work a couple of weeks and take the rest of the year off.
That would be nice wouldn’t it?
Or, you could write one or two letters each month, working no more than a week in total and have the rest of the time off. Writing 12 – 24 letters a year would certainly fill your bank account up nicely.
If those sales letters also paid you a percentage of the sales, or were for your own products, you could be earning a semi-passive income throughout the time you are not working.
There are several copywriters who specialise in writing sales letters for specific industries using templates charging £1,000 – £5,000 per sales letter. Because they know the industry inside out, they know the audience they are targeting, and using specific templates, they are able to write a sales letter in a day or two.
They then take the rest of the month off… if they chose to. They earn 2 to 3 times the average monthly wage in less than a week… and still have 3 weeks off. This really is a freedom skill.
One which can easily have you retired faster than any other job. As stated earlier, you are only…

How could they?
They pulled out guns and swords and stole, but once they had spent that money they were poor again. They had to go out and steal more money, all the while keeping a watchful eye over their shoulders for the long arm of the law… which in those days often resulted in a dangerous beating as well as being sent to the ye olde gaol.
Wealth Is In The Words
Publishers and writers on the other hand, were rolling in money. They were earning money even when they were not working. While sleeping, while out dining and socialising, and while resting with their feet up, writers and publishers were earning money.
Unlike authors and traditional book writers, copywriters and sales letter writers can write a letter in a day or two which can keep earning them thousands of pounds many years later.
Dan Kennedy wrote one sales letter which has generated him over a million dollars in commissions. The letter probably took him no more than a week to complete, and yet, even to this day it is still earning him money.
And if you think that is impressive, read on…
‘Coming right up to date, the most recent letter, which I wrote just last week, brought in over £40,000 in the first two days after being read by less than a thousand people. I fully expect that one to bring in over £1 Million over the next two or three years.’

Writing sales letters is an incredible and hugely profitable skill.
Yes you need to have a product to sell and yes you need to get people to see your sales letter, but without the skill of writing great sales copy, you will sell diddly squat, even if you had a good product and thousands of people looking for it.
If there isn’t a great sales letter for people to read, they will not buy. They won’t know if the product you are offering is any good, whether it will change their life around, whether it will alleviate their pain and suffering, or if it is worth the money on the price tag.
Without sales letters, people won’t buy. With great sales letters, people in their hundreds and thousands will whip out their credit cards and make a purchase.
But you do not need thousands of people to buy your product to make a lot of money. If you are selling a product which is worth a few hundred pounds or even a few thousand pounds, you only need a couple of hundred sales to generate an incredible amount of money.
All made easier if you have written a compelling sales letter.
And, as stated before…
