IDEA#2 ADDITIONAL SOURCES OF REVENUE
For the amateur photographer of either sex, and ideal for younger retirees or mothers with school-going children, an additional and useful service most could provide is photography for insurance purposes.
Attention to detail and a minimum of equipment will go a long way in this business, where keeping accurate notes must have the highest priority.
Essentially the job requires documentation of physical conditions as they exist or existed in the real world.
Everyone in the insurance and legal fields has a need for clear photographs and those who own objects and property, that must be Insured, also benefit from a photographic record.
This can be jewellery china; expensive clothes, period furniture and the like for private individuals as well as specific Items of office and factory equipment for companies.
To have any value, when placing a claim for insurance purposes, the items must be photographed in a specific way and in a way that offers true colour reproduction.
They must be photographed in scale. i.e. next to a ruler (larger items may require the fold out type) or some other item that has known dimensions, such as a matchbox or a coin.
It is essential that any identifying marks or serial numbers should also be photographed.
Where individuals or companies are making a claim for damage to property they usually will need to supply full details on the paperwork. So the one consideration in this is to ensure the keeping of accurate notes.
To attract the legal and insurance firms in the area it will pay to advertise your professional capabilities, so small ads in local papers can start: the ball rolling.
Upmarket retail stores might also be willing to give out your business cards to customers making major purchases.
This is not glamorous work, but with consistent effort and methodical searching that extra income is no longer a dream but a reality!!
