💩 Why it's ugly

You are selling sinks to people with walkie-talkies and impossible call times. The work is less disgusting than toilets, but the schedule has the emotional warmth of a parking lot at 4:45 a.m.

💰 Why it prints money

Film, commercial, and photo productions need temporary handwashing for crews, catering, makeup, wardrobe, and remote locations. Production teams pay for fast delivery, clean gear, and vendors who understand call sheets.

🗺️ The launch playbook 🔒

First 30 days

Register the entity and get the basic insurance sorted before anything else. Call the three biggest local operators and ask what they refuse to do — that refusal list is your launch menu. Price the first ten jobs deliberately low to collect reviews, then raise rates fifteen percent.

Days 31–60

Buy the used equipment, not the new one. The route density is what makes this profitable, so cluster your first customers within a twenty minute radius and decline anything outside it.

This is the part that makes money.
