How to Start a Beauty Pageant Business
Business Overview:
If you love the glitz and glamour of pageants and want a great way to break into this industry, you should learn how to start a beauty pageant business. Contests of beauty have been around for centuries but it was in the 1960’s that pageants became very popular. This was the beginning of the women’s movement when more and more women became better educated and it was more acceptable for them to be viewed in the public eye. Pageant winners were role models looked up to by young women everywhere. These days, there are not just the well known pageants like Miss America but there are hundreds of pageants a year. A quick Google search will turn up a list of pageants in your area, usually at least one per week, sometimes more. As you can see, starting a beauty pageant business is a fresh business idea. Pageant contestants are getting younger and younger which means entry fees starting essentially from birth up through adolescence and potentially young adulthood. There is a fortune to be made with pageants and all you need is a few industry secrets to make your way backstage and onto the pageant circuit. If you have experience with pageants either as a contestant or working for a director, this could be a relatively simple transition to make. There is a minimal investment to consider which will go towards venue rental and marketing. But as soon as you start getting applicants, you will collect application fees and should make your money back promptly. You will need to hire a small staff to help organize your events but with excellent shows and reasonable entry fees, you will have ladies lining up at your next show to participate.

You will need to arrive at the venue and help your staff set up the stage, chairs, dressing rooms, etc. When contestants start to arrive you will oversee all aspects of the show from collecting entry fees to staying on schedule to handing out awards.
