Answer 6

Normally, if you do this as a handyman type of thing, you really don't need any type of license of permit..However, you should have some type of insurance, just in case you should get hurt (fall off a ladder) or actually damage the customer's property...this way, you will be covered...as a matter of fact, your customers might ask you if you are insured which will increase you business, as well.

I would start off by definitely advertising in your local papers..Putting a link online is good provided that it be local, not a worldwide kind of thing...
