The Opportunity:

TeleVenture.TV provides training and initial set-up for people interested in establishing a home-based business to install and service television and audio entertainment systems. Primary customers will be the general public, established businesses (hotels, sports bars, etc.), property management companies, and contractors.

Income Potential:

The average hourly rate during normal business hours is approximately $80 per hour, and with a second helper it is $120 per hour.  Depending on the number of subcontractors and employees you hire plus the markup to your customers on components purchased at wholesale, your earnings potential can be very substantial.  We will show you how to optimize your staff and business to earn your maximum potential.

The following categories and tables show the earning potential from an STV Home Entertainment Installation business:
