Reasons To Start Your Own Christmas Light Installation Business

Of all the home businesses out there, Christmas Light Installation businesses may be one of the best kept secrets around. Most people think of hanging Christmas lights as a low paying, low potential, grunt work job, and therefore they never give it a closer look. But, in reality installing lights and decorations is a highly profitable, low overhead, easy to start and run business.
Let’s take a look at what makes holiday lighting such a great business to start:

-Low Startup Cost – You can literally get your business up and running for $2500.00 or less.
-Low Overhead – For many light installers the only expenses they have are gas, and replacement lights and materials. The only other expense you may have is liability insurance. Insurance is not required, but is nice to have. Insurance for christmas light installers runs $1000 to $2000 per year.
-Extremely Profitable – Christmas light installers average between $1500 to $2000 dollars per day depending upon the job and the speed of the installer. It is very easy for a one or two person holiday lighting crew to bring in $60,000 to $100,000 during the holiday season.
-High Demand for Services – Peoples lives continue to become more busy and hectic on a daily basis, and they just don’t have time to install their own lights, therefore they pay to have them installed, even people who do have time to hang their own lights often would rather pay to have them professionally installed.
-Unlimited Growth Potential – The population is booming, new homes and businesses are being built by the thousands, and so instead of your market becoming saturated, it is instead growing larger each and every year.
-Easy Work – Installing christmas lights is very easy to do; anyone from a teenager to a senior citizen can do it. It is also very easy to train new employees.
There you have just a few of the top reasons why Christmas light installation is profitable and why starting your own holiday lighting business is such a good idea.

  1. Though if you are wondering if you should get into it or not, you should consider the fact that it is a growing industry and can earn you more than $1000 a day in the holiday season if you get your act together now.

    1. Firstly, I'd recommend you to read more on this subject, which would help you to understand the importance of getting into the holiday lighting business and ways to do so. This would cost you just around $160 or so to buy the right books and they are a must buy if you are indeed serious about stepping into this industry. This would be your first investment.

    2. Next, you need to start pitching for new clients early. Starting now - July or August is best as all your competitors would be looking for work after September. So, it is best to beat them to it and get the sales now.

    3. Next question arises - Who would need you to hang holiday lights for them? The answer is 90% of big business organizations, even small commercial complexes and offices. So target the commercial sector and you can be assured of making enough money to last you the entire year.

    So, if you follow these 3 easy steps, you are looking at $1000 a day for the holiday season of October to December. I know of a company called 'The Perfect Light' - They generate over a million dollars in net profits in these 3 months. Now isn't that incentive enough to get started yourself?

  2. The reality is that the start up costs for a Christmas light installation business are so low that it just doesn't make sense to buy a business, when you can simply start your own, especially now that there are proven home study courses out there that will guide you through the whole process for a fraction of the cost.
