Are you an attractive woman looking to travel the world without spending a penny? Now, a website titled MissTravel.com allows hot females to see the world with a rich man's dollar. The only catch is she must accompany this male wherever he goes, so she may not have much say in the matter. This is just one example of an innovative platform that offers a fringe service. Companies can read more about niche services with our report, and gain inspiration for their own business ventures.
