Offer seat-filling service

The number of people going to concerts, shows and other public functions is quite amazing. Wouldn't you like to tap into that and reap benefits. Many people go to concerts and shows with tickets prepaid. However, the tickets do not include reserved seats for the buyers. The seats are on a first come first serve basis.

Now imagine if you offer to keep seats for the ticket buyers at a small fee. You just have to cooperate with the concert organisers. People who buy tickets before can entrust you with them to let you keep their seats reserved. You can employ a few people who can seat fill and pay them a percentage from what the ticket owner paid you. Every one of us would like to go to a place when he knows that he is assured of a place to sit however big the audience may be.

Not much investment is required. All you need is the right connections to events organisers to let you advertise your service at their venue. You do not need to employ permanent workers, a pool of university students and freelancing models can give you a head start. You only contact them when there is a client who wants to keep his seat filled. The workers have to keep themselves looking good and dressing well.

It may not seem to pick in the beginning but with time people will begin to appreciate. You just have to keep your  work ethics suit your customers' satisfaction. Satisfied customers will market your service to to their networks and  may decide to make use of your services more often. Also employ advertising strategies like social networks and let your company be mentioned on concert promotional material.

Paper recycling is a great business idea for Ugandans. Its disheartening to know that almost all the paper used in Uganda is imported. If you are a Ugandan can you recall how much paper you have used so far in your life time. I bet all of it was not recycled and you used it once. Used paper in the country is mostly used for purposes like lighting the charcoal stove, wrapping goods  and as  toilet paper. There is a lot of used paper material for example examination and answer scripts in schools, students old books, newspapers, and office waste paper.

Just imagine if you can take all that unwanted used paper to make it into new paper. There is a great market for paper in the country mostly in publishing houses, printers,schools, offices and government agencies. But most of our paper material is imported from countries like South Africa and Thailand. Paper recycling would cut on importation and promote conservation of trees. It is a great business idea if you begin a paper recycling firm which has a ready market in the Ugandan market.
