The latest business ideas with low initial capital. Profitable business ideas from scratch with minimal investment. Investing own funds

Is it possible to open your own business without investments and how to do it right? What kind of business is profitable to do so that your investments amount to a maximum of 3000 rubles?

Hello dear friends! This is Alexander Berezhnov, an entrepreneur and one of the authors of the HiterBober.ru business magazine.

Today we will talk about starting your own business without investments from scratch. In the article, I will cover this topic in detail and give answers to the most common questions of beginners. All the information you will learn is based on my practical experience or the experience of my entrepreneur friends.

Therefore, dear readers, be sure to study this material to the end and feel free to implement your favorite thoughts, approaches and ideas!

1. Why is it profitable to open a business without investments?

Dear reader, as you may have guessed, the biggest benefit is the savings on investment, and therefore much less risk.

For example, if you open a restaurant, then most likely you will need several million rubles.

Imagine how long it takes to first get your money back, and only after that you can talk about some kind of earnings.

In most cases, such projects pay off in more than a year (more often in 2-3 years, not earlier).

According to statistics 95% of all newly opened businesses are closed without having existed even for a year !

Therefore, dear friend, if you have no experience in business, I will give you advice - never invest the last money in a business, which, among other things, is intended for urgent needs. Moreover, do not take a loan to open a business (I repeat, if you have no experience).

More than once I saw how my friends lost money, and I myself got into unpleasant situations due to the fact that I overestimated my strength.

Ask yourself what will happen if my business fails?

At a minimum, you will lose most of the money. And if you took them on credit ... Just a nightmare!

That is why, start a business so that your investments are minimal or even zero.

In general, the beginning of any business, and it does not matter, with investments of money or not, begins with the fact that you ask yourself the question:

“What do I have that I can give people and they will pay me money for it? »

For example, you can write articles well, play a musical instrument, or you have a talent for teaching.

Then make your business based on what you are good at.

Let's consider a practical example.

The same person who is good at playing the guitar can earn money in several ways:

  • Method 1. Stand in the street (underground) and play, collecting money from passers-by (begging). This method will be acceptable for some, humiliating for others. However, it is the simplest and most obvious. Until now, it has not outlived itself, because in every major city there will always be such musicians.
  • Method 2. Play guitar in a band of performers. This method is suitable for people whose dream is to act as part of a group (to create their own musical group). The advantage of this method is that someday you can become rich and famous. However, it is not without drawbacks - for most people this is a rather long and difficult path.
  • Method 3. Teach people to play the guitar, replicating your talent. This is exactly what you need if you know how to do something well.

Developing the guitar theme...

If a few years ago you could just give private lessons on the instrument and take a time-based payment for them, for example, 300 rubles per hour, today everything has changed.

Thanks to the Internet, you can sell your knowledge an unlimited number of times by creating your own information product. That is, to replicate your product and receive money many times for once done work.

So commodity it can be an e-book or video tutorials (a training video course).

Yes, friends, this is already a business, and not just tutoring.

This is how you can open a business without investments, and most importantly, you can receive your first profit literally the next day.

Nowadays, more and more people earn tens of thousands of rubles a month in similar ways.

This is food for thought for you. After all, you can monetize your talents* in different ways.

Monetization- the process of turning any activity into money (from the word coin or extract a coin).

In the case of the ability to play the guitar, these are different ways to earn income from your talents, which I described above.

Maria Ivanovna became a private tutor, and Ivan Petrovich opened a men's suit store. Let's immediately make a reservation that both of our entrepreneurs are experts in their field. Maria Ivanovna is a good teacher, and Ivan Petrovich knows a lot about costumes.

Comparative table of business projects
Maria Ivanovna and Ivan Petrovich:

Business evaluation criteria Maria Ivanovna - tutor Ivan Petrovich - owner of a costume store
Initial financial investmentMinimumEssential
Periodic financial investmentsMinimumEssential
Time costsMediumMedium
Technical difficultyRelatively easyPretty hard
Business FlexibilityHigh degree of mobility (adaptability)Low degree of mobility (adaptability)
CompetitionRelatively highRelatively high
Revenue Growth PotentialShortMiddle
Time to break evenVery fastRelatively long
Market capacity (demand for goods/services)Pretty highPretty high

Of course, this is only a superficial analysis and does not reflect all the nuances. But even here it is clear that Maria Ivanovna has much less risks. And the task of a novice entrepreneur is to minimize risks.

The most interesting thing is that in order to earn Maria Ivanovna 40,000 rubles a month, she needs to invest about 8,000 rubles (travel, advertising, communications, taxes).

But Ivan Petrovich is much more difficult here, since in order to earn the same 40,000 rubles per month, he needs to spend about 200,000 rubles for the same period (product cost, rent of premises, more expensive advertising, higher taxes, depreciation commercial equipment, wage staff if necessary).

From this we can conclude:

  1. When starting your own business from scratch minimum investment) focus on service delivery(if you do not have other resources at the same time: money, connections, client base, etc.).
  2. Don't try to make everything perfect right away. Instead, do everything in incremental improvement. This will reduce your time and financial costs. So you can open a business with no money or with minimal availability.
  3. Reveal your strengths and make yourself known through advertising and personal contacts.

And, perhaps, the most important condition at the start of your new project is action.

Remember, only actions lead to results!

Just before you act, check if you have at least a small cash reserve, because even if you start your own business, there are still risks that your project will not be as profitable as expected, which means that you will have to cover current expenses from other sources.

4. How to open a business without investments - 7 proven business ideas of 2019

All the ideas below I have tested personally or described them based on the experience of my friends who are successfully doing business in these areas.

You just have to choose the type of business you like and start diving into it.

And also you can read another article on our site about which ones are relevant and successful this year.

Business idea 1. Cooperation with a network marketing company

Uninitiated people often have a lot of misconceptions about this, believing that network marketing is a scam, a pyramid scheme, and so on. I assure you that it is not.

Let's figure out what Benefits network marketing before classic business:

  1. Minimum investment: from 10 to 100 dollars
  2. Obtaining basic business skills:
    • the ability to negotiate;
    • planning your activities;
    • team management;
    • turnover tracking;
    • profit calculation, etc.
  3. Opportunity to create passive income, that is, an income that does not depend on your daily activities. Here you can regularly receive money for once done work.

I personally know people who earn several thousand dollars a month in the field of network marketing. At the same time, they do not run around with bags and catalogs, like girls near the subway. This way of opening a business on your own without large investments is perfect for sociable and open people.

Business idea 2. Business partnership with your employer

Let's take a look at this business idea with an example.

You work in the sales department of a small company that sells computers. You have a salary and bonus for meeting or exceeding the sales target.

Naturally, your employer is interested in you selling as many computer technology. In this case, you need to find a way to significantly increase sales in the company.

Perhaps for this you will need to open a branch of your company in another city or region, go on a business trip, reach more affluent clients, and so on.

Prepare a written proposal to your boss (business owner), for sure he will only be happy with your initiative. If it is adequately assessed, and you cope with your task, then after a while you will be able to become not just an employee, but a managing partner of this company, having your share in the total profit of the company.

It was in this way that my acquaintance, an entrepreneur, his name is Nikolai, immediately turned two employees into business partners.

One of the employees was a hired director and the other a lawyer. Each of these guys took over one branch of business that Nikolai is engaged in, and began to develop them, having received the status of managing partners in his company.

Business idea 3. Selling your knowledge via the Internet


There is famous expression: "Knowledge is power!" Especially if it is practical knowledge backed up by the result.

Do you know how to do something well: sing, draw, program, take pictures? There are thousands of people who want to do it just like you.

The problem is they don't know where to start. Help them learn it (learn) for money. Share your experience in a job you love and do well.

I already wrote above that you can not only give advice and lessons on a certain topic, but replicate your training by creating a paid information product.

My teacher in English, Alexey has been teaching English and German via Skype for several years now.

A few months ago, he decided to record his author's method of learning a foreign language for a year, in the form of an information product, and began to sell it on the Internet.

Now he has active income from teaching and passive income (without his participation) from the sale of training courses on the Internet.

This is one of the forms of doing business online.

There are many more ways to make money online. You can learn about them from our article "". This article will be of particular interest to beginners.

Business idea 4. Starting an online business

Not the easiest path you have to go if you decide to organize a business in world wide web. But believe me, it's worth it!

This business idea is suitable for those who want to earn money and develop their business without being tied to a place. That is, you can manage your business project from anywhere in the world where there is a computer and the Internet.

Understanding Internet technologies, you can create websites to order and organize your own web-studio. About how my friend Vitaly and I made money on this over 500,000 rubles, I said in the article “. It can also become your online business. Indeed, for this it is not even necessary to have an office and you can work with customers remotely.

For example, I am now on the Black Sea in the city of Sochi and at the same time I am doing business on the Internet.

And I can tell you honestly that it is very cool! After all, at any time I can go for a walk to the sea, meet friends or just relax. I have no bosses, but only clients and business partners.

If you feel the strength to start a full-fledged online information business, then this will be the best solution, provided that you are ready to invest time in your project.

For example, the HiterBober.ru website, where you are currently reading this article, is one of my business projects. It took me and my partner Vitaly not a single month of hard work to create and promote it, but now the project is flourishing and brings good profit from the advertising that is placed on it.

If you are also interested in making money on the Internet and want to know how you can earn tens of thousands of rubles by creating your visited Internet resource, be sure to check out my article “.

Above, I already wrote about such a concept as passive income. So, friends. Your visited site is a great opportunity to create a source of such income.

Business idea 5. Reselling things using electronic bulletin boards

The easiest business to start is a simple resale or, to put it simply, speculation. You buy something for less and then resell for more.

But since in the article we are talking about a business without investments or with insignificant investments, we will not open a store, immediately register officially and purchase a bunch of goods.

What I suggest you do.

To get started, practice and sell unnecessary things from home. It can be an old laptop, a bicycle, a closet or children's toys.

If you just inspect your home, and also look into the garage or the balcony, then I assure you that you will find a lot of things you don’t need (and someone else really needs them, believe my experience), and you will find “junk” at least several thousand rubles.

Personally, when I conducted an audit in the apartment, I found all sorts of things for almost 50,000 rubles. And that's just on the surface.

Next, take pictures of these things and post ads online. To start, the popular Avito electronic board (avito.ru) is best suited. Now you can also use the features of the site "Yula". This is also a popular bulletin board through which you can sell your things and engage in mediation.

You will only have to receive calls and meet buyers at home.

Attention!

An expanded and more advanced option for reselling goods online is "Business with China". Its essence is that you buy and then sell an interesting and inexpensive product through the same message boards, online store or one-page site.

Now this topic is very popular and different high yield. On the "Chinese theme" you can earn 100-200 and even 500 thousand rubles per month.

I have a friend, his name is Evgeny Guryev, who is successfully engaged in such a business and teaches others about it. If you also want to make money selling Chinese goods, I recommend taking Evgeny as your mentors.

Check out the testimonial of my wife's student, Igor Galaev, who shares his results after completing a course in business with China:

Let's get back to making money on bulletin boards...

But one site Avito can not be limited. Each city usually has its own local site with the possibility of accommodation free ads. If you wish, you can advertise the items you sell, even through ads in local newspapers like Hand to Hand or Everything for You.

It will also shorten your sales time.

Further, when you already have experience in making money in this way, just repeat all your steps again, and also start looking for contractors and suppliers of goods (the same things) and sell them on Avito and similar sites.

I guarantee that in this way you can earn money even in the first month, comparable to average salary in your locality.

Business idea 6. Organization of a household errand service "Husband for an hour"

Business idea "Husband for an hour * » not new, but every year it becomes more and more relevant. Our people are busy, and given the large number of single women, this service will always be popular.

Popular popular name for petty services household repairs in the house, which is usually performed by a man.

If you are a man and have the skills to repair plumbing, electricians, you can “nail a shelf” or replace a door lock, then in principle you will not end up with customers, thanks to your skills and proper advertising.

If your “handiness” has helped you more than once in household chores, then why not start selling your services?

My good friend, his name is Evgeny, opened the “Husband for an hour” service in our city of Stavropol. The third year he has been engaged in this activity, he has already recruited a team of assistants and takes a percentage of the work they have done.

Give ads on the same Avito. Walk around the area and put up ads offering your services.

After you have several satisfied customers, orders will come to you according to their recommendations. The effect of "word of mouth" will work.

Topic advice:

Order business cards for yourself and hand them to each client. On the business card, write that your client will receive a discount when they apply again. 10% for services.

This will help you quickly earn regular customers.

If you properly organize your work, do it well and build good relationships with clients, then soon you will have a flurry of orders and you will have to hire assistants.

My friend Zhenya with his “husband for an hour” service had exactly this. According to this scheme, you can also open your own business without investments, the maximum you need is the minimum money for advertising and for your tool.

Being engaged in the provision of such services, it is desirable to have your own car, but this is not at all a prerequisite.

Try it if you feel that such an activity is up to you.

Business idea 7. Home business for the provision of your personal services

The last business idea on our list will not relate to a specific field of activity, but rather to what you know how to do and can earn money from it in the very near future right at home.

For example, if you are a man and you have your own garage near your house, start providing car repair services by organizing your own small “home” car service.

If you are a woman, and, for example, you are fond of yoga, have learned to be a hairdresser or know how to do a manicure, you can earn money on all this.

So my friend Anna Belan, being fond of needlework, first made crafts at home and sold them, and now she has opened her own creative studio, where she teaches children this art.

Moreover, Anya's clients have only increased, now large companies order her to make branded crafts for the holidays, and she earns on this, doing what she loves.

Interested in her experience, I interviewed Anya, which tells. I recommend that you read it, especially if you are a girl or a man who is looking for something to do with his wife and improve her financial situation. :)

Remember, for sure one of your friends or acquaintances is doing business at home, using their skills and abilities in various fields.

Chat with this person and learn from his experience. I am sure that over time you will become an equally successful entrepreneur.

How to open a business in the village and start earning - step-by-step instruction for beginners + TOP-9 startup ideas

Guess what is the most popular reason for those who would like to start their own business, but keep putting it off until later?

I don't have money for this!

This is not only a common "excuse", but also a delusion.

After all, there are various low cost business ideas, which can be realized with a minimum start-up capital.

Which of them can you implement, and what will you need to start instead of money?

Ideas for a business with minimal costs: do you still need money?

An attentive reader should have noticed that the article is talking about the minimum costs, and not their complete absence.

The fact is that it is impossible not to spend anything at all on an entrepreneurial business.

At a minimum, you will have three categories of business costs:

    Salary for your loved one.

    If you left your usual place of work to do business, you can hardly do without money.

    Therefore, the profit will be spent, at a minimum, on your personal expenses.

    bureaucratic payments.

    When it comes to real business, and not a modest part-time job, you will have to face the need to draw up certain papers in government agencies.

    And this requires money. A simple IP registration will already cost you 800-1000 rubles - and this is if you do everything yourself.

    Regular expenses.

    Any business requires a constant investment of money.

    They can be minimized, but completely eliminated will not work. Business without investment simply will not develop.

As you can see, there are enough sources of expenses.

And if the first point can still be abandoned until the time when the business begins to bring tangible profits, then you will have to pay out of your own pocket for registering and developing the business.

However, these costs can indeed be kept to a minimum.

5 tips for beginners on how to start a business with minimal costs

    Don't stop learning.

    It is very good if at the time of starting a business you already have a knowledge base and good experience in some area.

    But it's even better if you keep improving your information literacy all the time.

    This applies not only to the main subject of the work, but also to various organizational issues. The better you know them, the harder it will be for our employees and partners to fool us.

    Get ready for the challenge.

    It would seem that everyone already understands that their own business will take almost all their free time and effort.

    Moreover, the first time you can not wait for profit.

    More precisely, income that you can safely spend on yourself.

    All funds should be directed to the development of the business.

    If you are not ready for this, you will quickly "break".

    Use connections.

    Even if you think that promoting a business with the support of acquaintances is “pull” and not fair, do not disdain this method if possible. Advertising yourself is nothing to be ashamed of.

    Your services can really be needed and useful to acquaintances, so just talk about them.

    Don't do business for money.

    When a person motivates himself first of all, he will not invest enough in the cause.

    Solve problems.

    Offering your customers a toilet light or perforated rubber boots can also make you some good money.

    But a real business with a future is only an offer that will solve people's real problems.

What to open a business with minimal costs: TOP 5 ideas

1. Open an advertising agency with minimal costs

This statistic proves it:

Meanwhile, to open your own, minimal costs are required:

    Staff.

    At the start, you can work on your own. Unless, of course, you are an ace in advertising.

    To expand the scope of services (respectively, to scale the business), you will have to hire a couple more people.

    It is desirable that everyone specializes in their own area.

    With them, you can agree on work "at a percentage".

    Then you can deduct payroll costs.

    Room.

    As long as you work on your own, the office is useless.

    Even a team of people can work without renting a room, because specialists can solve problems remotely.

    However, in the future you may need to meet with clients, partners.

    Doing this all the time “in neutral territory” is not very convenient and solid.

    But it’s worth being honest: promotion without costs will be less effective and longer.

You form the prices yourself, having studied the average indicators on the market and assessing your level of professionalism.

At the beginning of the journey, it makes sense to work at low prices in order to "stuff" the clientele.

2. Beauty services at home - a business with minimal costs

Minimum investment in business: 3,000 rubles.

It will not be a secret to anyone that beauty services at home are in demand. Especially now, when people have to “shrink” in expenses, but they don’t want to completely deprive themselves of amenities.

What can be done at home?

  • haircuts,
  • painting,
  • work,
  • bromaker work,
  • holiday or everyday make-up and styling,
  • a number of cosmetology services (masks, facial cleansing, massages).

To implement this idea, the following minimum investments are required:

    Room.

    Obviously, by providing services at home, you will not need to rent a salon office.

    However, you still need to equip your place. A rare client wants to be served in the midst of everyday chaos.

    Staff.

    In this case, you do not need anyone's help.

    If you have "third-party" tasks (for example, create a personal website), you can delegate this work to specialists.

    Now for this business area, Instagram “works” best of all.

    The sphere of beauty services is, first of all, a visual product.

    Beautiful photos + use of geotags and hashtags = promotion at no cost.

The services listed above are not a one-time “goods”. People will come again and again if they like everything. And those who want to develop their business can think about opening a full-fledged salon in the future.

3. Private club for children - minimum cost

Minimum investment: 20,000 rubles.

For some, time spent with a child is just noise, din and hours spent. And others have a special talent to find a common language with the kids.

This is already a good reason to open your own business at minimal cost - extracurricular activities with kids.

As a rule, to teach skills to children, you do not need to be an ace. Babies will have enough basic information.

To choose the direction of business, be guided by statistics:


The cost of starting a business will depend on what exactly you plan to do. At a minimum, you need study materials.

If you are engaged with each child face-to-face and do not receive huge profits, the activity can not be registered.

But if you start to collect entire groups, you can’t do without the IP status.

The best advertisement for this business, as well as many other options, is word of mouth. Ask people you know to spread the word about you to get your first customers. If you conduct classes that are really useful for children, the fame of this will quickly scatter, and the business will grow.

4. Is it possible to make money on holidays with a minimum of expenses?

Minimum investment: 6,000 rubles (design courses + advertising).

If you think that we are talking about the business of organizing holidays, then you are mistaken. This type of activity will require an investment of at least 30,000 rubles (and this is the most economical option).

But making decor for events is another matter.

Colorful decoration sets the tone for the whole holiday. If once the decor could be considered just a nice addition, now they rarely do without it (but what about the beautiful shots on Instagram?).

Do not think that this sought-after niche is devoid of competition. On the contrary, to be “on a horse”, it is not enough to have a creative streak. You have to attend refresher courses, look for new original ideas.

There is also a significant plus: you “beat off” your minimum business costs already with the first order.

5. How to make money on equipment with minimal spending?

Minimum investment: 6,000 rubles (purchase of tools).

Many samples of modern technology confirm the thesis: it is easier to throw away the broken and buy a new device than to repair it.

But if you say goodbye to a mixer or an iron, this will not really hit the budget, but they still prefer to repair a broken computer or washing machine.

This fact is a reason for the equipment repair business to be not only a business idea with minimal costs, but
also a highly sought-after direction.

You can repair the equipment at the client's home or take small devices with you. The set of necessary tools depends on what exactly you will be repairing.

And this choice, in turn, depends on your skills and experience. If you cannot fulfill the order, this is a minus. But it's even worse if you break the equipment completely.

A big plus of this business is that profit does not depend on the season. Technology breaks down all the time. If you want to expand the business, you can hire additional assistants. To legally conduct business, you need to issue an IP.

Low-Cost Business Ideas: Why Can They Fail?

So that the chosen business idea with minimal investment (like any other) does not fail, it is important to observe 3 principles:

    Business should be based on what gives sincere pleasure.

    If your eyes do not burn, and there is no sincere fuse, at the time of the crisis, your hands will drop very quickly.

    Yes, and the development of the business will be difficult, because this requires sincere passion.

    The idea should appeal to the target audience, not just your loved ones.

    Testing the demand for a niche on friends and family members is very convenient.

    However, in order to make a profit, you must offer something that will be demanded by potential customers "from the outside."

    There must be a "chip".

    Unless you have a startup based on a unique innovative idea, you are guaranteed to face competition.

    After all, now there are no niches where you will become a “pioneer”.

    The sphere can be either partially filled, or “to the eyeballs”.

    Therefore, without a twist that will distinguish you from other entrepreneurs, you should not count on a high income.

In this video, Pavel Bagryantsev will tell you

8 affiliate marketing- it is also called affiliative (from the English "affiliate").

If a user goes from your site to a partner site and buys something there, then you get a commission of 4% to 15%. The most profitable niches for this are electronics, Appliances And eBooks.

Food

The general trend in the field food products and public catering is a clear trend towards greater naturalness and usefulness of food, as well as a factor of originality and mobility.

9 Author's pastries- if you know how to bake deliciously and you have an original idea, then this business idea will be the best for you. The best option would be to choose a very narrow niche, for example, author's eclairs, eco-cookies for children and adults, pies according to forgotten recipes, sweets handmade etc. Do not chase volume, focus on quality and presentation.

10 Food delivery from supermarkets and restaurants. Relevant for big cities. Of the investments, you will need a website with the possibility of online prepayment, as well as a description of the full range of products of the most popular grocery and restaurant chains.

11 Unique sweets both in form and content. In terms of the first, this is the manufacture of sweets and cakes to order. As for the composition, now the use of exclusively natural ingredients is considered original. Such sweets sell well at food festivals and fairs.

12 Mobile eateries- we are not talking about those "booths" with shawarma that "migrate" from one metro station to another. In this business model, an event or event that brings together thousands of people plays a key role.

It can be a multi-day festival, a concert, a large fair, etc. At such events, there is always a demand for fast food and the like. The organizers of such events are almost always open to small businesses, and you can make good money.

Various services

This section includes diverse business ideas that may be of interest to a wide range of people who want to start their own business from scratch.

13 Interior designer, decorator- this is an option for people who have a gift for combining interior items, the colors of various elements, which is supported by knowledge of the rules of good taste when decorating rooms. Ready-made apartments will be the best advertisement for your business, so it is advisable to establish cooperation with a company that deals with repairs.

14 Niche (narrow profile) consulting- is such a business idea that really requires minimal material investments, but requires a lot of knowledge from you. The key to success is to become the best consultant in a very narrow niche.

15 Repair of appliances - in every house it only becomes more. Accordingly, the demand for technical non-warranty service is growing every year. To get by in this case with small investments, you can start by renting a very small room (you can even in the basement).

16 Real estate agent is a rather old idea, but you can implement it in your own way and start to stand out from the mass of your fellow fishermen. For example, to specialize exclusively in commercial real estate or on a narrow target audience (for example, foreigners).

17 Writing and formatting a resume- sounds very simple, but at the moment there are already several recruiting agencies in the CIS that provide this service as an option. It is especially popular for applicants who wish to get a job abroad. The cost of such a service varies from 50 to 300 USD.

18 Sale of rare imported goods- refers to the resale of consumer goods for a narrow purpose, and not rare or antique items. For example, from China you can regularly order all kinds of inexpensive devices or devices that are either not available in our countries at all, or they are sold by a few people. The best place to buy such products is Alibaba.com.

19 Restoration of furniture and antiques– in our time, specialists who are ready to “breathe” new life in old objects, very few, but there are many things that need them. Therefore, if you know how to do this, then take a closer look at this business idea. You can start with advertising on Avito or OLX.

20 Author's driving courses - there are hundreds of people who want to improve their driving skills. Some want to learn extreme driving, others want to improve their driving skills on highways or in heavy traffic. Your trump cards will be experience, an individual approach to the client and flexible schedule classes.

B2B (business services)

Providing various kinds of services in new small niches (sub-niches) that large companies do not go into is a very promising business idea that can be implemented with minimal investment.

As a rule, such services are based on understanding what your enterprise customer needs and knowing where to find it. Undoubtedly, strict requirements are imposed on such services in terms of their quality and qualifications of performers.

21 Research of foreign markets and consulting on these issues. First of all, this concerns the study of new promising directions for the export and import of goods. China, for example, does not count, since it has already been explored far and wide. However, much less is known about trade with countries such as India, Indonesia, Mexico, and Malaysia. If you have a working knowledge of these regions, you can make good money advising companies that are interested in them.

22 Search for highly specialized personnel. In addition to finding good lawyers, accountants and sales managers, many companies have vacancies for which it is very difficult to find a qualified specialist. As a rule, this applies to rare technical, medical and interdisciplinary specialties, as well as top management.

23 Internet marketing and research. You have no idea how many online stores exist that do not track the interests and behavior of their potential customers, as well as such global parameters as market size, number of competitors, price fluctuations in a niche. If you can collect, systematize and arrange such information with high quality, you will definitely not have a lack of customers.

24 Project management is the management of a large project (as a rule, IT or the development of a business development strategy) or its part of a large foreign customer. Working in this business will require you to be fluent in a foreign language and have excellent knowledge in the area in which you will need to provide services. Very often, such a business is opened by former employees who worked on similar projects, gained knowledge, understood how it works and decided to open their own business.

25 Outsourcing is a search for subcontractors for a foreign customer who has taken on a major project (IT, advertising, production). Basically, the main criterion for finding outsourcers is good workmanship at a low price. That is why many European and American projects are partly made by guys from India, Pakistan, Eastern Europe. If you know and understand how this can be arranged, this business idea is for you.

26 Local Express delivery – with the growth of Internet commerce, the demand for prompt and inexpensive delivery is increasing. Major players This market is overpriced, and the goods come only the next day. This business idea is based on services for the delivery of goods within one locality on the principle of "delivery on the day of order".

27 Remote IT Services. Large companies have their own IT departments or at least a system administrator. A small business is not ready to have a separate specialist on staff, the need for whose services may arise once a month. But, since iron is not eternal, sooner or later they need to tune up equipment or software. Today, many of these problems can be solved remotely, which makes it possible to work even with foreign clients.

28 Remote Accounting- as in the case of IT services, such services will be of great interest to small businesses (mainly individual entrepreneurs). The need for regular reporting, keeping records in strict accordance with the law, as well as the inability to maintain a full-time accountant, force entrepreneurs to seek the help of remote accounting and audit specialists.

For the countryside

Let's make a reservation right away that the realities of our villages are such that in the village itself you are unlikely to be able to sell something. But! The village is an excellent platform for a range of business ideas. If the village is located near the city, then this is very, very good.

It is at the expense of urban residents that you will earn your first capital. So, most likely you have a house (dacha, garage) and a land plot there. Naturally, you need to make the most of these resources and here are some suggestions for you.

29 greenhouse cultivation- on the one hand, many people already know about this idea, but on the other hand, quite a few undertake to implement it. But in vain, because fresh vegetables and fruits grown in the village can be easily sold in a nearby city at a good price. You will receive the greatest profit in early spring. The range of what can be grown is very wide and you can find all the necessary information on specialized forums.

30 Raising chickens and quails- demand for meat poultry(and eggs) will always be. Even having a small plot, it will not be difficult for you to buy and maintain meat or egg-bearing breeds of chickens or quails. You will definitely need an additional refrigerator (for eggs), and a freezer for storing meat supplies.

31 Breeding fish - at first it may seem that this is an overly expensive idea, but, in fact, it is not at all. You can start artificially breeding fish even in small tanks with a volume of 2-3 cubic meters. The main thing here is to ensure uninterrupted filtered water, proper nutrition and maintaining the desired temperature. You will definitely not have problems with the sale of fish, since it is always in price because it is both tasty and healthy. For example, there is a site that is entirely devoted to the benefits of such a breed of fish as mackerel http://skumbriya-retsept.ru/, a whole site of recipes. And he's very popular.

32 Homemade feed mixtures for animals. Small farmers have to buy feed from resellers with a double or triple mark-up. As a rule, in the village you can get a variety of cereals at a very low price. Knowing the composition of the compound feed (can be found on the Internet), as well as having even a small Soviet grain grinder and the appropriate ingredients, it is possible to produce from 20 to 100 kg of ready-made feed mixtures per day with minimal investment.

33 Manufacturing and assembly of furniture- you will need many different tools, as well as material, but you have a place where to do it. Ideally, such furniture is best made to order on a partial prepayment basis. In such conditions, you can both make furniture from solid wood, and assemble cabinet furniture from chipboard according to catalogs.

34 home preservation- in fact, it is an optional idea, that is, an additional option for what else can be sold to the "urban". As a rule, conservation made by hand at home by a skilled housewife has a number of advantages over factory counterparts. It is these advantages that should be voiced when selling. Jam and pickles are the most demanded in this segment.

35 Homemade bait mixes for fishing- as in the case above, it is rather a way extra income than a single business idea. It will not be difficult for you to find recipes for various dry baits for different types fishing. At cost, a kilogram of your mixture will cost 3-4 times cheaper than branded counterparts. The first customers for your product can be found on specialized fishing forums.

The best thing, of course, if you manage to do everything that is listed above in this list. A stable good income will help you move to a different level of the economy: with hired personnel, regular customers and even your own brand.

Animals

Caring for pets, especially thoroughbred ones, is always associated with certain costs for their owners. Here are some business ideas on how you can make money in this area.

36 Grooming. Have you noticed how many dogs of small (almost decorative) breeds have become? Yorkshire terriers, Shih Tzu, Chinese Crested, Havanese and many others need regular grooming. Believe me, their imposing owners will only “for” their shaggy “miracle” to be professionally cut. Plus, there are a number of cat breeds that are trimmed for the summer. Of course, such a business idea makes sense only in large cities.

37 Training. At the same time, guard dogs are also always in demand. Owners of shepherd dogs, standard schnauzers, cocker spaniels, rottweilers and others will be interested in the primary professional training of their pets. Naturally, you must have the proper experience and skill in handling such animals.

38 Breeding purebred cats or dogs. The business idea may not sound new, but if you start breeding rare, and not "pop" breeds of animals, you can make good money in the long run. Greater success here can only be achieved if there is relevant experience and knowledge in this area.

39 Eco-friendly cat scratching posts are a pressed solid cardboard of a certain ergonomic shape, which is most convenient for animals. As a rule, harmless corn glue is used in the production. In Europe, such scratching posts can already be found in every pet store, but for now they can only be found in large cities.

Handmade

The largest section in this article. This segment is one of the most popular in 2017 and many good business ideas with minimal investment.

The key factor will be whether you have certain skills and abilities in a particular craft. Believe me, a quality handmade product will always find its buyer.

40 Versatile outerwear for kids- many parents know that children's jackets and overalls are very expensive, and their range is very small. Moreover, as a rule, they are enough for a maximum of one season. As an alternative to factory-made clothes, there are already small ateliers that offer individual tailoring of children's overalls. If you know how to sew and model children's clothes, think maybe this business idea is worth paying special attention to.

41 Ceramic products- especially for products polymer clay. You will need a minimum of time and investment to start making various crafts. They will have a fairly low cost and you can easily sell them.

42 Handmade decorations will always be in demand. As with other handmade ideas, fantasy plays an important role here. Creative approach and high-quality execution will provide you with the first and regular customers. Feel free to post examples of your work on in social networks.

43 Knitting - but only if it's not banal scarves and socks. The core of this business idea is knitting something very original. For example, one Ukrainian craftswoman began to knit blankets from very large links. She came up with a very original product, which at the moment became very popular, especially in Europe.

44 Master classes (courses) modeling, knitting, sewing and other handicrafts. Again, this is very simple. If you know how to do it, there is a place for a group, there is a desire - spend, teach, have fun and money.

45 Handmade signboards. More and more shops, salons and other small businesses refuse plastic signs. There was a good demand for quality products made of wood, metal and other natural materials. Your potential customers are shops in the mall, fast food restaurants, various beauty studios and others.

46 Tailoring of covers for furniture- a narrow, but rather low competitive niche. Such covers, for example, are very necessary for sofas and armchairs in families with children or pets. Everyone will agree that it is cheaper to order a cover that is easy to wash than to buy a new sofa.

47 Stained glass manufacturing. Another type of "garage" production, which can be implemented without significant investment. You can start with small stained-glass windows, which are often needed by private furniture makers. In the future, you will have orders for large canvases that will decorate someone's rich house.

48 Memorable children's souvenirs- absolutely any child will be pleased to have a small cup on the shelf for his success in sports or any hobby. This will be for him a source of pride and motivation for further development. Author's memorable gifts will be ordered by both ordinary parents and kindergartens, schools and sports clubs.

49 Mobile trading. Recently, especially in large cities, near shopping centers or at weekend fairs, you can increasingly find small portable "shops" of people who want to sell their crafts. This is a great opportunity not only to sell your product, but also to popularize your brand or product. As a rule, in such cases, the fee for the right to accommodate compactly is very small (from 1,000 to 3,000 rubles).

beauty and health

In this area, there have always been a large number of small and low competitive niches in which you can easily start your own business with minimal investment.

50 yoga instructor is one of the most popular business ideas in 2017, especially among women. If you have knowledge in this area, you just have to find a cozy room for group classes. You can promote your services through Facebook.

51 Healthy nutrition consulting- another good idea, the emergence of which is dictated by the growing popularity of a healthy lifestyle. For starters, it doesn’t hurt to start your own blog or Facebook page and share your experience. In the future, people will begin to contact you for advice on diet, child nutrition, and much more.

52 Beauty salon at home- a common and well-known idea. This is a great option for starting your small business on the way to opening a full-fledged hairdresser or salon. During this time, you will be able to develop an excellent base of regular customers.

53 Visiting make-up specialist- a good option for big cities, where every day there are all kinds of events and there is a need for the services of a stylist-make-up artist. From investments, you will need high-quality cosmetics, tools, Instagram accounts, and then a small site with many photos of your work.

54 Art tattoo studio. It is impossible not to notice that the number of people with permanent and temporary tattoos has increased over last years factor of. Today it is possible to apply temporary tattoos and henna paintings, which are very popular among today's youth. Such a studio does not need a lot of space, but you will have to invest in good equipment and materials.

Entertainment and leisure

Despite the crisis, people try not to forget about entertainment. In the conditions of limited foreign tourism for citizens of the Russian Federation, the demand for domestic tourism, the organization of corporate parties and holidays, as well as various master classes, has significantly increased.

55 Aerial photography with a quadcopter is perhaps one of the most modern business ideas, which is rapidly gaining popularity around the world during 2016-2017. Investments are minimal - only the quadcopter (drone) itself. With it, you can shoot stunning panoramic videos that will appeal to honeymooners, organizers of mass events, etc. With this technique, you will leave far behind your competitors who are used to making banal videos.

56 Bike tours. The community of cyclists in the CIS has grown 16 (!) times over the past 10 years. There was a whole mass of people who are ready to break into a long bike trip. Such tours can be organized for the weekend (local areas) or for several days (travel abroad). Now your hobby can become a full-fledged small business.

57 Organization of trips. As with bike tours, this business idea will appeal to those who have been hiking all their lives. The most profitable will be long-term international routes, which far from poor people will be ready to decide on. Having such experience behind you, you can easily organize such group trips.

58 City tours. This idea is especially relevant for tourist hubs, where visitors are willing to pay well for visiting local attractions and an interesting story about their history and origin. Investments in this case are minimal: you need to take special small courses and successfully pass the exam.

59 Master classes on tourism and survival. One more new business an idea that will appeal to experienced lovers of extreme tourism. Many novice tourists know absolutely nothing about equipment, physical training, climate, flora and fauna in a particular area. Such master classes are in demand in big cities, where people of medium and higher incomes are preparing to go on hikes of high complexity.

60 Event management. Services for organizing holidays, concerts, festivals and other major events are also popular today. You have probably noticed how many street food festivals, marathons, and charity fundraisers have been held these days. Event managers and agencies are behind their successful organization.

61 Master classes in drawing and other creative crafts. If you are a creative person who has been doing this as a hobby for a long time, then it's time for you to make money from it. A large number of people strive to learn how to draw, sculpt, embroider, sing beautifully and much more.

62 Organization of children's holidays. Along with big "holidays" for adults, there is a need (demand) for organizing children's events. Birthdays, New Year's holidays, Promotions children's shops or salons - all this requires the development of a special program, the selection of costumes and performers. Provide all this to the customer "on a silver platter" and start earning.

63 Dance lessons for adults- this is still a good idea for those who have been dancing all their lives and decided to open their own business. You just need to find a good hall, come up with a specialization (Latin, ethnic or other dances) and advertise on the Internet.

64 shopping consultant- at first glance, this sounds frivolous, but, for example, several such consultants are already successfully working in Moscow. Thanks to your sense of style, knowledge of the latest fashion trends and other important news, you can become an indispensable assistant for wealthy women and even men.

Educational services

As in the old days, many people are eager to learn something new, develop and improve their skills. In the age of the internet

65 Cooking master classes. So far, only chefs have been doing this, and then only as a part-time job or for TV shows. However, if you have the skills and the ability to rent a kitchen, you can regularly conduct such practical exercises. Believe me, in large cities there is a demand for this.

66 Organization of seminars and conferences. Here we are talking exclusively about the idea of ​​organizing these events. Considering what is now great amount seminars are held, the demand for such services is extremely high.

67 Own training webinars. An excellent business idea, which is already used by thousands of trainers, experts and other professionals. This model is convenient because no one needs to go anywhere. Everything happens in the form of an online conference. You, as the organizer, only have to bear the small costs of using the service, which makes it possible to hold webinars.

68 Tutoring. This idea is perceived by many as a side job, but in fact it is not. Here a lot depends on the level of income from classes, and it, in turn, depends on the field of knowledge and the audience with which you will work. The most profitable will be individual tutoring for top managers, specialists who are preparing to leave to work abroad, etc.

69 Own educational portal. Sounds big, but you have to start small. You must create unique training material for a specific niche of professionals. This material needs to be formatted in a variety of forms: articles, videos, infographics, etc. Ultimately, you will be able to build an entire course in your discipline and sell it successfully.

70 Coach for personal growth and motivation. This idea is viewed with skepticism by many. Largely due to the "bad" fame of some of these coaches, who are well PR, but teach little. If you are very active man, you know how to light a fire in the hearts and heads of other people, then this path may be for you.

Clients (customers) are your everything!

Therefore, remember one of the most important rules for starting any business with minimal investment - about your skills, your services or product should be known to people, your potential clients .

You can be the world's best mechanic, trainer, artist or bake the most delicious pies, but if only you know about it, you will not earn money.

Well, we are ready - then let's start! 🙂

1. Which manufacturing business idea to choose?

Despite the seemingly well-established competition in all industries, finding and occupying your niche in the market is more than realistic! I will say more, from personal experience, I have repeatedly been convinced that some niches in a particular city / region can be practically free from competition at all - it remains only to occupy them and make a profit!😀

So, in fact, opening your own profitable production business is not so difficult as you might imagine, the main thing is to approach this business responsibly and choose a business idea that suits your capabilities and interests, which would be in demand among the population.

Below in the article, we just provided a list of the most popular production ideas for small businesses. In order to make it more convenient for you to decide on a particular business, each idea will be considered based on the following criteria:

  • initial investment;
  • required equipment/materials/room…;
  • average profitability;
  • payback;
  • demand for products;
  • production complexity.

If you have a small initial capital, then first of all, pay attention to simple business ideas that you can implement at home / in an apartment / garage (there are a lot of them listed in the article).

In addition, before implementing a business idea, analyze the market, purchasing power and competition in your city or region.

Separately, a few words should be said about competition. Of course, it is easiest to start production in an area where there is little or no competition. Such niches can be found in almost every city. But in this situation, it is important to understand that in some of them the demand for products may be narrow or limited.

As for the high competition, then it should not be afraid - if it exists, then this indicates, first of all, that this product is very in demand among the population. So, with the right positioning, you can always take your place in the market.

❗️ Advice from personal experience:
Do not immediately invest a lot of money in production, especially if you are not sure that the business will go uphill. Start small, and as soon as you are sure that the goods produced are in good demand, expand production.

Also keep in mind that sales of products in production occupies a key place, so you need to pay special attention!

2. Business ideas for production for small businesses - 37 relevant and in-demand ideas

Below you can find a huge number of low-budget ideas and even those that can be implemented almost from scratch! Some of the production business ideas are suitable not only for men, but also for women.

Idea No. 1 - Production of decorative artificial stone

INVESTMENTS: ≈ from 30,000 - 100,000 rubles.

DESCRIPTION OF THE IDEA: Artificial stone is widely used as a decor both indoors (for wall cladding, shelves) and outdoors (for foundations, facades…).

This is a fairly profitable business, and most importantly, in demand among the population - on average, the demand for decorative stone is growing by 10% annually.

Here it is important, as in any production, to organize the sale of products in the first place. For example, the usual cooperation with finishers often allows you to organize a permanent sale of artificial stone. In addition, it is worth setting up wholesale deliveries to companies that sell building materials.

Additional income can be brought in by stone finishing and delivery services (or recommendations from those who provide such services).

WHAT YOU NEED:

  • matrix forms;
  • cement and sand (or gypsum);
  • pigments (dyes) and other additives;
  • room on average from 30-70 sq. meters (possible at home / cottage);
  • vibrating table (relevant for mass production of stone).

The technology for the production of artificial stone is quite simple: a solution is prepared from cement and sand (gypsum), poured into molds and hardens. Coloring can be done either after the stone has solidified, or when preparing a solution by adding powder pigments to it.

Gypsum stone is mainly used for interior work, and concrete stone is used for facade decoration. However, it has been observed that the demand for concrete stone is significantly higher than for gypsum stone.

The cost of 1 square. m. of such a stone usually does not exceed 200-250 rubles, the market value is on average 500-700 rub. per sq. meter .

Idea number 2 - Making paving slabs

INVESTMENTS: ≈ from 80,000 - 150,000 rubles.

DESCRIPTION OF THE IDEA: Another idea similar in many respects to the previous one is the production of paving slabs.

This type of business is in great demand, as demand from individuals and the state only grows over time. However, competition in this niche is usually above average.

But with the right positioning, you can always take your place in the market. For example, in small towns, budget paving slabs are very popular; accordingly, in the absence of local manufacturers, such a business can bring significant profit. You can also produce luminous paving slabs, which are now only gaining popularity.

It is worth adding that the production of tiles is a relatively low-cost business and it is quite simple to organize it even right at home.

WHAT YOU NEED:

  • forms (from 20-35 rubles 1 pc.);
  • vibrating tables (about 25 thousand rubles);
  • room 50-80 sq. m.;
  • cement, sand and gravel;
  • pigments and mineral additives
  • phosphor (for luminous tiles).

As a rule, 2-3 people will be enough to organize the production of paving slabs. The production process is not very labor intensive.

💡 The cost of manufacturing a square meter of tiles averages 150-240 rubles with wholesale price from 350-400 rubles. Even a small production - about 300 sq. meters per month brings clean 35-50 thousand rubles .

By the way, another plus of this business is that it does not fall under certification and licensing!

Idea number 3 - Production of building cinder blocks

INVESTMENTS: ≈ from 50,000 - 90,000 rubles.

IDEA DESCRIPTION:

Making cinder blocks is a very profitable business! Since the cost of slag blocks is low compared to brick, gas and foam blocks (one block replaces six bricks), they are widely in demand in construction when building walls and foundations.

It is not difficult to organize this production with small investment and at home.

WHAT YOU NEED:

  • cinder block making machine
  • cement and additives (plasticizers),
  • building materials (slag, sand).

You will also need a warehouse for storing blocks and a production room with a size of 40 sq. meters.

❗️ The cost of one cinder block is approximately 14-18 rubles, and its selling price is 24-26 rubles.

A team of two or three people per shift can usually produce up to 800 pieces, as a result, with such a turnover, it is possible to make a profit aboutt 3-5 t. rub .

You can sell products in bulk construction and trading companies and retail to individuals. Also, good sales volumes can be brought by cooperation with construction teams!

Idea number 4 - Making modular paintings

IDEA DESCRIPTION:

Recently, modular paintings, which are several paintings united by one theme, have become in great demand. Thanks to their originality, they easily allow you to decorate the interior and create a pleasant atmosphere in the room.

But most importantly, such a business idea is not only very popular with low competition and easy to implement, but also highly profitable ( net profit is about 100%).

You can see more about how modular paintings are made in the video below:

WHAT YOU NEED:

  • high-quality color printer or professional plotter;
  • Personal Computer;
  • fabric and stretchers;
  • room from 40 sq. m.

For production, 2 people will be enough. This idea is most relevant for cities with a population of more than 80 thousand people. However, due to the high margin, it is profitable to sell products not only in one city, but throughout the country by creating an online store and / or a community on social networks.

❗️ Retail prices for modular paintings start at 3,500 rubles per 1 sq. meter, the cost of manufacturing on average does not exceed 1500 rubles. With a monthly sale 100 sq. m. profit will be from 150 000 rubles !

3. Sales is a key element of any production! Personal experience and useful recommendations

And now we will devote a little time to one of the most important moments in production - sales of products . Below I will briefly try to explain why, before producing anything, it is important to clearly understand exactly how the products will be sold.

I really hope that the described experience will be useful to any of you and will allow you not to step on the same rake that I did when opening my own business.

In my practice, I have been convinced more than once that often it is not an established and stable sales that leads to the fact that the business never starts to make a profit or brings, but very little.

In life, it usually turns out that many start-up entrepreneurs first invest money, start producing something, and only then think about selling products (and sometimes they have no idea at all how to sell manufactured products).

⚡️ It is important!
Any production lives only due to the sale of products: no sales ➡️ no sales ➡️ no business ! Therefore, before starting a business, carefully plan through which distribution channels and how the products will be sold!

remember, that Sales is the backbone of any business.! 80% of the success of your business depends on sales!

As for sales, there are 2 main channels for selling products:

  • directly to the client (for example: through their own retail outlets/shops/offices; through advertising, newspaper ads and bulletin boards; through their website and/or group in social networks, word of mouth…);
  • through wholesalers and retailers (for example, it is a very common practice to give products to intermediaries for sale, since this does not oblige them to anything, most of them will agree to cooperate).

In order to build a stable and successful manufacturing business, analyze and work out all the marketing options available to you at the moment. After all, often until you try it, you won’t know which of the sales channels will bring the main income.

By the way, also use internet to find new customers- many people underestimate him, but in vain. For example, I know many entrepreneurs for whom the Avito bulletin board is almost the only source of a client, and besides, it’s free!

Here are some more tips from my personal experience:

1️⃣ It will always be useful analyze the market , pricing and evaluate the competition. As I already mentioned, the presence of competition is not always bad, on the contrary, it indicates that this or that niche is in demand in the market!

As for demand, it can be roughly estimated in your city/region using the online statistics service wordstat(wordstat.yandex.ru) from Yandex. And with the help of bulletin boards (Avito, for example), you can test the demand even before you start producing anything!

2️⃣ It does not hurt to make a small business plan on the chosen idea (especially for newcomers to the business). Just do not need to make it 50 sheets, do the most detailed calculations ... - this will not be of much use, because, as a rule, in life everything turns out quite differently than on paper.

It will be enough to describe the idea on just a few sheets to simply understand from the inside how the business works and how it functions, what is important and what is not ...

3️⃣ For a business to be successful, it is very important to find your strengths and stand out from competitors. For example, you can stand out due to the low price, product quality, high level of service, speed of delivery, etc. Describe your ideal client and focus on their top preferences and interests.

4️⃣ I do not recommend starting entrepreneurs to start production of any innovative products for which there is no demand yet. This requires a lot of experience and a fairly large investment, since in practice only 1-2 out of 10 new products shoot!

❗️ Therefore, it is better for beginners to start with goods for which there is already a steady demand.🙂

5️⃣ Give yourself to your work completely and with love . There is no need to act half-heartedly and with thoughts: it may work, or it may not. Have a clear intention that it will only be the way you intended. And of course, do your business with love for people, then you will definitely succeed!

Before choosing the scope of future activity, it is worth highlighting the key factors that determine its profitability:

  • The time interval for the return of the initially invested funds.

  • Low price threshold, at which the purchase of materials and raw materials contribute to increasing profitability.

Small businesses need minimum labor resources and cash. For example, you can gather friends and do cleaning of apartment premises, repairs. You can also open an inexpensive fast food, kiosk or bar.
