Charge an entrance fee, and let patrons put their beauties on display. Award prizes for appearance, talent and personality! 15. Relax. Enlist the help of a local massage therapist. Set up a chair at your business, and let staffers or customers pay a fee for a five- minute massage. 16. Easter Photos. Whether you offer live bunnies, the Easter bunny or just a great background, parents love photographs of their kids all dressed in their Easter best. You don’t even have to use a professional photographer. Many amateurs are quite good and will volunteer their services. 17. Snow Cones. Even better than a lemonade stand. 18. Full Service. Bring old-fashioned service back. Contact one of your local gas stations and see if they will let you offer full-service gas in one lane of pumps.
