The Business

TV mounting is a low-overhead service business with high repeat demand. You charge $100-250 per mount, complete 2-4 jobs per day, and customers find you via Google, TaskRabbit, or Thumbtack. Equipment costs under $500 to start. The barrier to entry is low but professional installers who show up on time dominate local markets within months.

How to Start

Buy a quality drill, stud finder, and assorted wall anchors ($300-500 total). Create profiles on Thumbtack, TaskRabbit, and Angi. Charge $125 for a single TV, $175 for dual TVs. Build 5-star reviews fast. After 20 jobs you'll be booked solid from referrals alone.

REAL EXAMPLE

Mike in Austin went from 0 to $12K/month in 4 months by pricing competitively and getting 50+ reviews on Google. He now has 2 trucks and 3 installers.

CHRIS'S TAKE

“TV mounting is a cheat code. Every smart home install, every apartment move-in, every retired couple who just got a new Samsung — they all need someone. The tools cost $300, the liability insurance is $50/month, and you're charging $125–$200 per job that takes 45 minutes.”

PRO TIP

Partner with Best Buy Geek Squad waitlists and local apartment complexes. Both will overflow work to you without any marketing spend.
