Video game police testing and training

This is a proposal to test and train police officers via video game like system that mimics real life.

In New Jersey, the US Justice department has sat aside promotion lists because the test is biased. The test favors reading and writing rather than real policing skills.

This proposal is for a company to create real, interactive, situational testing that is much more realistic and unbiased. The testing would lead to a more representative police force and better qualified candidates.

Black Women oriented business in Entertainment

Many of us have noticed the rise in spending power of Black Women over the past 20 years. Not only have salaries and earning increased for Black Women, but they have higher consumption rates than many other groups. A double bonus for marketing and sales.

So any product that is geared toward Black women is likely to do well.

The obvious list includes shoes, clothes and makeup. But those categories are saturated. How many pairs of shoes can you wear at a time? There seems to be an opening for "social" or "experience" spend such as travel, dining out with friends, plays, movies, spas, or new experiences. In other words: Arts & Entertainment

A great example of this is the plays of Tyler Perry that provide a wholesome night out of entertainment. Or movies like the Best Man, Jumping the Broom or Love and Basketball which attract huge audiences.

Now I have seen a new trend where small, Black, women oriented play companies performing Black written and directed works with a Black cast in local venues or schools for a short time. I am not sure you can leverage or scale this type of business, but it is nice to see the activity.

Construction and contracting example

Computer networking and network management

We this is less a business you can start and a good job opportunity.

Despite outsourcing, computer network management remains strong. Even the the server is "in the cloud" you still need skilled, capable technicians to support the in-house connections and the desktop. There is always changes due to new technologies, devices and clients that the network technician has to deal with.

The good news is that network techicians typically require only a high school degree.

Unarmed Security Services

The demand for security services is at an all time high. As the economy worsens, people are willing to pay more to protect what they have. Small and medium sized security companies are growing fast. Most of the jobs are unarmed, "watchers" who will notify central command or the police if there is a disturbance.

These guard typically watch personal property such as cars in a park lot. Supermarkets, malls and plazas. Study the paper or the local police blotter to see if a particular mall has an auto theft problem. Or the local supermarket has a theft problem. Then step in to fill the gap.
