IMHO, it seems like some kind of middleman position would be a great job 
for a squib or any number of witches or wizards.  So many of the characters 
seem to be happily isolated in their own wizards' world.  Having others who 
could go out and procure things from "out there" and bring them in to sell 
at Diagon Alley, etc... would provide a valuable service and would be 
profitable, too.

I imagine muggle-borns and folks from half-n-half families would have an 
advantage.   I can easily see Gred and Forge try to argue their way through 
whatever maze that the MoM has established to get a license to sell their 
joke products to the muggles.  Maybe traffic is only one way?  Probably a 
bit safer although the occasional cursed teapot does make its way out...
