Is starting a security agency a lucrative business?

[eldavis]

I have heard about security agencies before in the past. They usually offer various services like private bodyguards, or bouncers for parties and other events. I saw a movie some time back where the main lead runs this business and he seems to be doing well, but what about in real life? Is this business still a lucrative one ?

I heard a friend of mine that has studied the job so well and he explained to me how the job looks like. With what I heard from him he would be a millionaire by only two- three years of starting the business.

With the current security situation world over, there is an increased need for trained security personnel in many organizations and these are often outsourced go security agencies. Good security agencies make good money.

I think every business that is needed by many people is a good and profitable business. Including the security agency business, because there are many companies or private homes that require security services.

that's true, there would be a high demand for their services, especially if the agency is well known. Even government officials and the likes would want to hire them.

Companies are in high demand for their services, especially if the agency is well known. Securities are needed now. Even government officials are not left out so good money can be made

You would have to liaise with the government to get licensing to operate a security outfit. You won't just be dealing with providing private security but you would also involve in training people in the use of firearms and installation/ maintenance of security gadgets and systems. It is a highly professionalized business but also very lucrative.

I think launching a security services agency is lucrative, mainly because a business owner usually does not need to invest a lot of money.
Most a times, all a businessperson needs to do is to recruit only a few staff and open a basic office.

I agree with you, the security outfit owner usually does not need to invest a lot of money in the business. Because the person might just need to recruit only a few staff and that's it

You are very right with that. More trained security personnel are being needed in the world for sure. There is need for them in the Middle East and most parts of the world.

I think starting a starting a security agency is a good idea and there is demand for such services. Organizations, concerts, rich people, celebrities need their service. I heard that the charge for a real good professional body guard can be very high.

The security agency business is therefore has the potential to do better in the industry. Most people then that are willing to do the business can be very successful in deed.

It is very possible to achieve that feat. The demand for security is very high. The only thing he has to do is deliver quality and popularize his security agency. Bouncers are needed almost on a weekly basis for events.

At first it may not be lucrative because you need to hire guards train them and guide them what to comply. And then after that, you need to write a Letter of Proposal to banks and multinational companies to offer your services.

 

[cherry123]

Those skilled in this can start a security agency. This is no bad idea and there is high demand for these services in different Organizations, concerts, event etc One can make good money with efficient staff

 

[Starmix]

This is a very good business because all business centers need security guards. It is the agency to receive the money from those businesses or companies and to ay the guards every 15th and 30th of the month. The salary for the guards is too small because the agency gets the bigger percentage.

You have a point though but i think they would have to spend to some extent, cause since its a security agency, the staffs have to be fit, so it would make more sense if the company has a gym that can be use to train the staffs.

A security agency business is quite lucrative if it stays patient to gain grounds and source for clients.
