Many
years ago, we bought a small, very fuel efficient car. It was great on gas. We decided that we could make money by taking
on a paper route.
We
took two routes that were side-by-side and built up the routes by getting more
subscribers. The only real down side was having to get out and collect for the
papers. The key here is to work with a newspaper that will get subscribers to
pay in advance.
The
great part of the job was that we are normally night people and the hours were
perfect. The routes were great and most
of our customers were wonderful. They
even gave tips and gifts at Christmas.
We
increased our profits by providing outstanding customer service. We also put Avon and Tupperware books in the
newspapers along our route. We only had
one complaint about this.
We
did so well with this that we were hired by the newspaper as a district manager
and a telemarketer. The paper fired us
the day they found out Suzanne was pregnant.
