Discover How You Can Help Seniors Stay Independent – and Help Yourself to Generous Profits – With a Senior Errand Service
There’s a “senior boom” going on, and it’s creating new opportunities for anyone who wants to start a home-based business caring for them. The senior population in America is close to 50 million people today, and is expected to reach 80 million in just over two decades. As seniors age, they need more help with daily activities that younger folks take for granted, like running errands. If you’ve ever dreamed of starting a profitable home-based business that improves people’s lives, a senior errand service could be the perfect choice for you. The demand for senior errand services will only grow in the coming years, as the baby boomers become seniors and need help as well.
It’s the perfect job for someone with a compassionate, patient heart that wants to make a difference in the lives of others, while earning a good income. It’s a great way to help out seniors, while still leaving them feeling independent. Best of all, there are no classes or expensive start-up costs required. Plus, most of the errands you’ll be doing are probably things you do already. Running to the grocery store, stopping at the post office, going to the bank, picking up dry cleaning—but with a senior errand service, this time you’ll get paid to do it. Also, you can start the business on a shoestring. You only need a car and a cell phone, and chances are you probably already have those.
I recently bought your book. I was on the fence about buying an e-book and I must tell you that I am extremely happy and was pleasantly surprised with every aspect of the book. It is easy to read, gives you a lot of great ideas and I feel worth every penny. Lorraine ( single mother, Marina del Rey, California )

Start A Great Business on a Shoestring
An errand service business requires no formal training or business experience, just common sense, organization, honesty and patience. It can be started on a shoestring, with not much more than a car and a cell phone. The rewards can be great – not just in dollars and cents – but in helping seniors live better lives, by helping them retain their independence as long as possible. You’ll have a flexible schedule – an advantage for those who need to balance family needs with earning an income.
How Much Can You Earn?
The national average charge for senior concierge services is $30 an hour. An eight hour work day means $240 in earnings, or $1,200 for a five day week. That’s over $50,000 per year in potential earnings for a business you can start on a shoestring!
