Ferry Flying isn't the be all and end all for adventurous aviation. I too wanted to get into flying because I dreamed of doing a particular type of flying (cargo). In reality you will find that most flying jobs call for the same actual Commercial Pilot's Licence but they all require different ratings and level of experience.
A Commercial Pilot's licence will allow you to get into parachute jump plane flying, bush flying, banner towing etc. I got chatting to a crop sprayer Pilot on new year's eve whilst at my next door neighbour's house believe it or not. Poor bloke wanted to talk about the football results, instead he ended up giving flying advice all night. Spraying is a similar story to ferrying. One needs a lot of experience in that field to gain a first job in that field, if you see what I mean
(chicken vs egg).
