Portable Shelters And Storage
Portable Shelters And Storage business.
Business Overview
Portable storage systems have become extremely popular in the last few years for anyone that is looking to protect a car, motorcycle, or boat from the weather. Generally, these portable storage shelters are constructed from a lightweight aluminum frame, covered with a water resistant fabric, and are quick to assemble and disassemble. They are available in a wide range of sizes to suit cars, RVs, motorcycles, boats, and just about any other type of transportation that needs protection from the wind, rain, and sun. A potentially profitable part-time business enterprise can be based on purchasing these portable shelters on a wholesale basis and reselling them to car, boat, and motorcycle enthusiasts for a profit. Marketing the shelters will not meet with a lot of resistance, as the cost to purchase one is a mere fraction of what it costs to build a carport or garage. The key to success will lie in your ability to negotiate a dealer's agreement with one of the many manufacturers of these types of portable storage and shelter systems. Your objective should be to secure the distribution rights for a protected territory. You want to be the exclusive sales agent for the manufacturer's product within a defined area.
