As always, those that best meet the needs of consumers. 2011, like 2010, is another year where consumer markets will be dominated by the perceived needs of baby boomers, so you’ll find that many of the best business opportunities target that group. From travel through medical technology, it’s hard to find an industry not impacted by the boomer population bulge. Here are my predictions for the best business opportunities . There’s no better time to be selling travel packages. The great boomer bulge is hitting retirement or already retired and neither dwindling portfolios or increased airport security will deter them from seeing the exotic places on their lists before they “kick the bucket”. So business opportunities abound in organizing appealing packages of accommodation and activities in popular exotic locales. As I write this, African safaris, Southeast Asia and Antarctica are destinations of choice. Senior care makes my best business opportunities list once again because of ever-growing demand. Business opportunities in senior care range from opening your own senior care home through providing in-home care or home services such as preparing meals, housekeeping or running errands. Senior care franchises are another option for getting in on this business opportunity.

Seniors needing renovations to make their lives easier and stay in their own homes longer is a niche waiting to be colonized. Ramps and specialized bath fittings are just the beginning. Business opportunities abound for green ideas. Whether you believe in the seriousness of climate change or not, one thing is certain; the furors has released the government purse strings for green technology projects.
