Now almost all houses are equipped with intercoms. It is simply impossible to enter the house without a special key. But with such keys you can create your own business and make good money.
Keys can not be made to all systems. To the systems "Visit", "Metacom" - you can make a key in 2 minutes, but to the systems "Digital" and similar to them, they have not yet come up with a kind of remaking. Only official representatives of this security system can provide keys to them. And this is the only negative in this business.
The scale of making keys is huge. For example, you can calculate the number of inhabitants of an average multi-storey building. On average, 3 people live in an apartment. Thus, the total number of residents is about 750 people, and all of them are potential customers. And this is only one house, but how many such houses are in the city? In general, the market has potential.
People always order duplicate keys. This service is in demand. But not always the offices of security companies are located near the house, so it is not always convenient. Another thing is when such a key making point is located in a passable and crowded place, for example, in a shopping center. Then demand will be good.
To start a business, you just need to order a KeyMaster Pro 3 or KeyMaster 4 RF device and purchase electronic keys. The cost of the KeyMaster Pro 3 system is 3900 for 5 units, the KeyMaster 4 RF system is 2900 for the same 5 units.
Help: KeyMaster Pro 3 and KeyMaster 4 RF duplicators are used to program full copies of Touch Memory keys. As copies, keys of the standard TM 2004 / KC -1 / KC -3 or UK 2007 are used.
The cost of the keys depends on the amount of purchase. UK 2007 electronic keys are sold at a price of 48 rubles at retail, the wholesale price is lower: 44 rubles from 500 pieces. The keys of the standard TM 2004 / KC -1 / KC-3 are sold for 29 rubles at retail, the wholesale price is 23 rubles from 500 pieces.
The average price for a duplicate made is usually 80-100 rubles. Thus, the monthly income can be 30, 000 rubles, subject to the availability of 15 to 20 orders. The amount of net profit - at the level of 10, 000-15, 000, depends on the cost of renting the premises.
To find a suitable place to rent, you first need to carry out preparatory work to go around or travel around a large number of yards, assess the needs for intercom systems, calculate the average number of keys contained in the hands of residents, and identify all competitors. And only then look for a rented place in the intended area.
The amount of initial investments for opening a point is not so great - 35, 000 rubles. It includes rental points, manufacturing equipment, furniture, cash register. Experienced entrepreneurs are also advised to purchase a computer or laptop, which is necessary for doing business.
Now about the business itself. There are three ways to do business. The first way is a stationary point. It is organized on market squares, in shopping centers, near public transport stops and in other places of centralized trade. The disadvantage of this method is the direct dependence on the landlord.
The second way is a mobile point. In this case, you need your own car. It is advisable to make advertising on it in order to attract more customers. The technology is simple - drive up to crowded places and offer your services. To provide feedback, it’s nice to give out business cards with your coordinates. With their help, it will be easier to communicate with potential customers and tell them the location of the proposed parking lot.
The third way. Additional service for an existing business. For example, with a photo or copy center as an additional service for the manufacture of keys.
This business has development - you can open several points in the city, i.e. network or become a dealer and participate in the promotion of key coding systems, distributing them across regions.
The advantages of this business are also obvious. The number of intercom systems increases, and the number of people wishing to make a copy of the key increases accordingly. This service will always be in demand, in any case in the near future until they invent a new way to protect homes.
