I am in a entirely unique line of work, 1 that I built through years of intense nerdiness & collecting.
I buy & sell seasoned comic books, toys, & other collectables, so there is no disadvantage guarantee on making money! Every day is a gamble in this line of work, so I am consistently hustling for the next opportunity.
I attend a lot of conventions & shows, where I set up a table & hawk my wares. I live in the south, & but I drive around the country as needed mostly I stay in my condo state. The biggest tool in my arsenal, & what helps me make the most money, is a portable air conditioner think it or not. Think about it, at an outside convention or show, with hundreds of tents & tables, what better way to kneel out than by offering air conditioning? When the afternoons get entirely hot, people will hang out in my tent just for the cooling, & the longer they hang out the more likely they are to buy something. I am not a hardliner about it, but if someone is parked in front of the AC vent long enough without opening their wallet I will politely ask them to leave, then my inventory is good, of course, & my prices are as wonderful as anyone else’s, so I guess it is the little extra of the AC that helps me kneel out from the pack. People who are comfortable will have more fun shopping, so for me the AC is a real driver of resite.
