This is an extremely easy question to earn extra few bucks.

I need a listing of all possible "services" that are offered to the
public by businesses, whether it be for the house (electrician, cable
man), repairing (plumber, painter), utilities (phone man), religion
(jehovah's witness), family (counseling) or other.

Example below:

VERY GOOD:
1. Electrician
2. Plumber
3. Carpenter
4. Locksmith

OK:
5. Family Counselor
6. Specific RePairman (Computer, TV, etc)
7. Psychic (On-Call)
8. House Decorator
9. Escort (On-Call)

NOT GOOD:

Ambulance/Police/Fire Department - well known

Food Delivery/Taxi Service - obvious

Guitar Tuner/Music Teacher/Shoe Salesman - either extremely specific
or non "incall" service

Make a listing of up to 50, then do an extra for a generous tip.
Feel free to ask any questions.

Thank you.

Hi ryananderson,

This is a little confusing. I've compiled a small list here for you to
clarify whether I'm on the right track or not.

Gardeners
Home Inspection Service
Tailors
Window Cleaning
Wedding Planners
Janitor Service
Wallpaper Installation
Upholsterers
Laundries
Landscaping

If any of these are not what you are interested in please let me know,
and why. Thanks.

One other question: Do the services have to be done at one's home?

Regards,
Rainbow

Gardeners - Good!
Home Inspection Service - OK! (A bit specific)
Tailors - OK! (A bit specific)
Window Cleaning - 
Wedding Planners - Fine (too specific)
Janitor Service - Bad (Way too Specific)
Wallpaper Installation - Bad (Way too Specific)
Upholsterers - Bad (Way too Specific)
Laundries - Good!
Landscaping - Good!

I guess I cant even explain it myself, but Im probably looking for a
list of services that are EASY to find in ANY community (rural, large
city, etc) and are "general" for every kind of folk.

As to the other question, yes they would have to be "done at home",
thus a waiter or a travel agent wouldnt quite work.

Thank you for taking the time to answer the question.

Hmm, I am so horrible at this, I assume that people already know what
I am thinking, perhaps I'm the lazy kind who just wants telepaths
digging my mind for answers.

Here is another something I've noticed about the service types I'm interested:

They "have" to be the kind that you can CALL UP, and REQUEST on the
spot. Meaning, like a locksmith, where you phone up the local shop and
request one to come the next day. A bad entry would be a Postman,
where he is not specifically called, but is provided as a service.
Another bad one would be a door-to-door salesman, which is not on
call. Another point to notice is that you can schedule them to visit
your house to provide the service at a certain time.

Im crossing my fingers hoping that I got it down right.

Babysitter - Fine (Read Above)
Car Washer - Fine (Usually not On Call)
Caterer - No (Usually not for Houses)
Chimney Cleaner - OK!
Housecleaner - Fine (Read Above)
Painter (house) - Good!
Milkman - No (Not Call In)
Postman - No (Not Call In, Service)
Drapery Cleaners Good!
Dry Cleaners - Good!

Im hoping that perhaps you can catch a glimpse from a few "Good!" ones below:

Electrician - Good! (On Call, Very General, Not too Specific, Can Come
for an Appointed Time)

Locksmith - Same as above

Exterminator - Same as above

Plumber - Same as above

I'm sorry to waste your time and about me not being able to explain
myself. I hope the above tip would help. I will reimburse your time
and effort with a generious tip.

Thank you so much.
