Most people who dream of owning businesses always tend to think about starting businesses like cleaning that is similar to that offered by CleaningFinder and several other common businesses. But there is another good business that can turn your dream into a reality and that is picture framing.

With just a little investment and not so much knowledge you can start a picture framing business. You can start it as a part time job and dedicate one room of your house for it and later on you make it a full time job.

If you have bought a custom picture frame before, you must have seen that it is a business that gives a high profit margin on many items. Picture framing also provides fun, prestige and variety in an environment where your professional and creative opinions are valuable to customers.

Starting a picture framing business is very simple and fast. The startup cost is very low since you only require five main pieces of the necessary equipment. And another good thing is that you do not require all the five pieces in order to start and also you do not need to buy new equipment though certain items need to be new.

Something else that makes picture framing a good business for anyone is that it is easy to learn and it is a happy job. Framing is not rocket science. Anybody can learn how to merge four sticks to create a frame. Customers always get thrilled when they see the final product because framing transforms any type of picture and makes it look terrific. There is no other job that is as fun as picture framing.

Another good thing about a picture framing business is that it is less stressful and the working hours are reasonable. If you are tired of so much stress and working for long hours you will find that a photo framing business is completely the opposite of what you do because after all emergency picture framing jobs are rare.

Most picture framing companies like Frameology have reasonable working hours and most of them operate five days in a week. And in case you work from home as most people do, you will have complete control of your schedule. This makes a framing business a great retirement business.

A framing business also has flexible working options. There are very few businesses that offer this much flexibility. In framing you can decide between working in an art gallery, in a retail store or from home. You can provide wholesale framing service to designers and artists or create pre-framed art. Picture framing also adds to other businesses like gift, flower, photo, furniture and several other businesses.

Another good thing about a picture framing business is that it is good for couples. One can concentrate on the technical framing part which entails creating frames and cutting mates. The other person can deal with the creative and interpersonal section which entails choosing colors, working with customers and giving design advice.
