In
the private investigation business, with proper training,
unlike any other you are in a perfect position to start
your very own detective agency. And it doesn't take
capital or financing to get started because you don't
need any product, inventory, equipment or merchandise.
Just like an attorney, you are selling what you know...
and that is your training and education. Therefore,
in the majority of cases the initial investment for
your own business will be no more than $200.00 to $300.00!

Private
Investigators are successful in small towns, too! In
fact, great opportunities lie in small communities where
lawyers, business and industry have no investigative
help at all. In this career, opportunities always exist!
There is never a recession in the investigative profession
which is subject to layoff or unemployment. This is
one occupation that cannot be eliminated by automation
or push-button control. Trained private investigators
are always in demand as everywhere the increase in crime
rate and civil litigation continues!

How
to Become a Private Investigator :
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
Many people are of the opinion that most PI's are
former police officers or government law enforcement
agents. The fact is, the majority of Professional
Investigators have little or no training or experience
in those fields. Almost anyone, man or woman, no matter
his or her age, background or experience (with the
exception of convicted felons, of course) can become
a Professional Investigator.

Private Investigation Training :
|
|
| |
|
|
| |
Many states require Professional Investigators to
serve an apprenticeship or internship with an established,
licensed PI or with an investigative firm. Several
Professional Investigator schools exist that offer
entry-level schooling and training that may or may
not enhance on-the-job training and the time-given
acquisition of basic skills.

Earning the credentials to do business as a Professional
Investigator can be a very rewarding and fulfilling
accomplishment, both personally and financially. PI's
often work alongside law enforcement officers, attorneys,
and business leaders. Private and public organizations,
insurance companies, and banking institutions call
upon PI's to perform important investigative work,
such as surveillance: tailing, stakeouts, videography,
still photography, and audio recording.
