I'm sure that the title confuses you and makes you wonder how you could possibly learn something about making money from a bunch of people who sleep in a box. Well, before you get judgmental, you should know that not all people end up in the streets just because they bankrupted. However, one thing is sure - they're all doing a great job keeping themselves alive!
Homeless people don't have cell phones, Armani suits, steady jobs or fancy offices, but they can still teach you a thing or two about making money. Read, watch and learn!
1) Be Original
When you want to attract audience, be unique! Having a different approach than others will increase your sales, or in this case, donations. When you advertise a service, product or whatever, you have to raise peoples interest, make them think!
By saying original, I mean you don't want to copy someone else's idea:
I don't know what's going on between ninjas and homeless people..
2) Choose The Best Place To Advertise
This guy may have never seen a computer in his life, but the people he's trying to get money from surely have! He is collecting cash in a modern neighborhood populated by young people who understand the humor in www.sparechange.com - and reward it. What do you think, how much cash would this guy make in a neighborhood resided mainly by people whose grandchildren were born before internet was even invented?
You have to know where you want to advertise or sell your product/service! For example, you wouldn't want to sell snowmobiles in California, or ice cream in the North pole.. Do some research first!
3) Target Specific Audience
This homeless Klingon is going to the annual Star Trek convention, I guess he doesn't know it's not honorable for a Klingon to beg for food. Nevertheless, he will be well fed by a number of merciful trekkers.
You need to know who you're selling your product/service to in order to maximize your profit.
4) Be Honest
I don't think I need to say much about this one - People appreciate honesty and are willing to reward it, no matter what you're selling!
If you offer more than you can deliver, you'll eventually find yourself facing a lot of enemies. So instead of just talking, make your product/service as good as you say it is!
5) Work Around The Clock
This is by far the most valuable moneymaking lesson homeless people can teach you. There are no holidays or vacations for homeless people, they work around the clock. If you really want to make good money in your life, learn how to work without complaining on your low salary, small office, nervous boss, slow company car and start working your ass off - every day! Real success can only be accomplished through hard work (unless you're a prince or Paris Hilton)!

This is an awesome article Steve! I really like your style. It is true, homeless people are advertising for survival, and it must be working for them, if they show up day after day. If it didn't work, you wouldn't see them.

I do agree with you. We can learn many things from which no one can imagine! You have given exceptional ideas. I liked it!
Its really nice! After meeting them, I realized their value. Thanks for giving me realization!
I've seen them in my town here and in the next town. I even seen some of them having tent outside in snowy climate.
Thanks for giving the positive side of their conditions. Thanks so much for d good lessons inspite of how desperate looking they are.
You've done a great job friend.
Merry Christmas!
I think that they are wrong for posting stupid things like this on the web it's not funny and if they are homeless they're not taking nothing serious about their lives being ruined by there drinking
loved the sparechange.com sign, my favorite online bum of all time
interesting post, blog bookmarked.
It must take a lot to be creative, when you are so down on your luck, like these people.
Nicely written. I can relate to most of your points.
i once met the guy in the first pic...he was wandering around making claims that he needed money because he was pregnant and his skin didnt fit o_o
Funny, I liked the Klingon the best.
Klingon the best.!!
thx!
hmmm... great post. i think the most important are "be original" and "work around the clock"
These are great! What a lesson from you and very ambitious homeless people.
Great tips... i saw something cool to make sure that you don't ever end up homeless: the Money IQ quiz at Bills IQ
I took it and found out that i may be homeless someday.
