I think it might be difficult to make money the way you are proposing.
My own focus is on books of greater antiquity (generally stuff published and printed before 1900)--books that are either actual rarities or simply lack (good quality) modern reprints.
The fact that my books are not especially large means that I anticipate being able to publish at least 2 books per year. Not a large quantity, but income from multiple books is, I feel, the only way to make any serious money from this sort of endeavour.
The scanning for hire might not work too well because people are likely to be satisfied with lower quality (and therefore cheaper) results than you would painstakingly (and thus presumably more expensively) strive for.
