Ok,here goes: My friends and I are starting a dog sitting biz but now I'm not sure we can get any customers cause none of us live in a neighborhood and no one wants to drive so far to my house. And the moneys for a really good cose! Any one have any ideas to get customers or raise money? (theres only 3 of us so no car washes,too hard!)
Please don't delete!I will rate! Thanx for your help!

advertise in a local paper and but flyers up around you town ]
If you stick with the dog business... set up flyers around a town and see who responds. If you put the cause on the flyer... more people might respond. If you don't want to do the dog business... then be creative and sell things people need. Or put a collection bin in a supermarket or church/temple and explain on it what u guys are trying to do. People do help and you'll be surprised at how much you'll make. You could even try a garage sale! ]
none of us will probably be able to answer this because last night me and my friend tried to answer 2 or 3 questions taht had computer language on it and it said "chat speak detected. speak english please" so if you really want to be able to have answers then dont use computer language.

i tried that before, you should get flyers. flyers really help. everyone (usually) sucseeds if they have good flyers ]
hey well you could try to put up some signs on the trees and put out flyers or you could help baby sit or make a garage sale well hope i helped ]
Make a bunch of flieRs and distRibute them on the bullentin boaRd at youR closest couple of gRoceRy stoRes; fRee advceRtising -- that's what it's theRe foR. Also, you can tRy putting an add in the papeR. AnotheR option, f you'Re paRents appRove, and you'Re up foR the challenge, tRy baby sitting. HoweveR, baby sitting is a seRious matteR. Make shoRe you and youR fRiends know exactly how to peRfoRm CPR on infants and toddleRs in case of emeRgency, and once that is all settled, you can add that to youR Resume. PaRents aRe moRe likely to give you theiR business if they feel theiR child will be safe with you. Also, tRy putting up flieRs on stReet coRneRs and in papeRs foR lawn mowing - big money to be had theRe; geneRally $20.00 - $65.00 peR good sized yaRd. I wish you and youR fRiends the best of luck. Hopefully eveRything woRks out foR you, and hopefully I've been of some assistance. =D ]
if you live in northern california, you can use craigslist.org
Or you to dog parks and hand out flyers, go to regular parks and when you see and nice person with a dog give them a flyer..
You can also babysit.

Hey, that's really weird, we sign our names the same way, and we have the same name. Anyway, you can raise money with garage/ yard sales, and even a carwash (even though I know you said none) because me and my friend did one and we made a lot of money, even though it was just us. And it is easier to start a dog sitting business if you know a few customers already. If they like you, they will spread the word.
Anyways, good luck,

I tried starting my own business 2 years ago with one friend, and, well, that didn't last...but if you hand out flyers and put signs up at busy intersections, that's one way to get some costumers. You need to pick a place to take the dogs to though, cuz most of the time ppl dont like other people in thier house. I hope I helped! ]
Well a good way to raise money is like a garage sale with like a bake sale and different types of sales or something I'm not sure....but there is also a 50/50 u could do, like going to a sports game and doing a 50/50 3 tickets for 3$ or 9 for 5$ it really works we did it and raised 1400$ and kept 700$ cause half goes to the person who wins...I wish I could help more but I live in a very small town and well our fund raisers are like donuts(krispy kream) and all those sry
hope I helped anyways
