Estimates for a small start in Australia, not guarantees.
What it is
Vastu consultations done remotely. Clients send floor plans, photos and compass directions for their home or a planned build. You review them and share written advice and a video call on layout, room placement and orientation.
Your first three steps
- Write down your Vastu training and experience, and set a clear fee for a plan review and a call
- Set up a simple website or social page with a booking form and a sample report
- Offer a few discounted reviews to people in your community and ask for testimonials
Who pays
Homeowners and renters in the Indian and South Asian communities, people buying or building a home, and small business owners setting up a shop or office.
How it makes money
Fixed fee per plan review or consultation, with higher-priced packages for new-build plans, and optional follow-up calls.
Skills that help
- Solid knowledge of Vastu principles
- Reading floor plans and site plans
- Clear, respectful communication
- Writing simple advice reports
Watch out for
- Vastu is a traditional belief system, so avoid promising health, wealth or other guaranteed results (check Australian Consumer Law on misleading claims)
- You are not a building designer or certifier, so make clear that advice does not replace council approval or an engineer
- Check whether professional indemnity and public liability insurance suit your work
- Register an ABN, and check when GST registration applies as you earn more
- Check council rules if clients visit you at home
