TV mounting and home theater installation service
A trades side hustle that mounts televisions, hides wires, and sets up home theater systems for residential customers.
The idea, in plain language
A residential trades side hustle that mounts TVs, hides wires, and sets up home theater systems for homeowners. The episode describes a home-security installer who built it as a side business and added roughly $1,000 a month on top of a day job. Startup cost is minimal, requiring a drill, basic mounting hardware, and a vehicle, and revenue is per-job cash from local customers.
Where the sources agree
- It is a trades-based, in-home service.
- The extra income is real but modest — about $1,000/month in the cited case.
- Wiring-hiding is part of the value proposition, not just the mounting itself.
