How to choose a business idea if you are a complete zero in business?

Where do you think a business starts?

With a loan to launch your startup? Or from the official registration of your LLC? Or maybe by selecting a team of qualified enthusiasts who will help you earn your first million?

Of course, all these are necessary steps to start your own business. But none of them, perhaps, can be called the very first. Business is not born in banks, not in the corridors of government agencies, and not even in offices working long hours. It is born in the head of an entrepreneur at the moment when a business idea arises.

But what about those who have not yet figured out what business to start? Waiting for inspiration, postponing active actions indefinitely, is not The best decision in such situation. So how do you decide on a business idea?

The answer can be given by experienced entrepreneurs who still remember how difficult the process of finding a business idea for beginners from scratch is, but have already left this stage behind. We invite you to read their advice on how to choose a business idea that can really bring money and success.

Tip #1: Start from the end

No matter how paradoxical it may sound, this method allows you to compare the available opportunities for business development, the number of which is almost endless, and your strengths, which an ordinary person usually does not have so many of.

Try to imagine for a moment that you are not standing on the threshold of your business, not knowing what to take on, but have already achieved some success in it. Introduced? Then focus on these very successes: who do you want to become, what do you want to achieve, what do you want to create?

“This should be a clearly defined goal associated with your true dreams, which will not change over a long period of time,” explains Nikolai Zhuravlev, general director of the Masterplans consulting agency.

In its practice, the agency often uses just such a technology, which is called reverse engineering within the company. Having decided on the ultimate goal and writing down your conclusions on paper, it will be much easier to develop a specific action plan to achieve it.

Tip #2: Use existing experience

If you are wondering how to choose a business idea, remember that your future business is not something abstract and divorced from reality. It must be aimed at real people. Therefore, looking for an idea for it in books is not always the best solution. Sometimes you just need to turn to your own experience. First of all, to work experience.

Statistics show that most businessmen open their own business in the field in which they worked as employees

Tells Jalil Kuryaev, director of the company "Business Nation", specializing in consulting support for small and medium-sized businesses.

So why not follow their example and take a closer look at what is literally under your feet? Moreover, having worked in a certain field for some time, you already have an idea of ​​the “inner kitchen” and a certain set of competencies, and perhaps useful connections.

If the business where you worked as an ordinary employee is not suitable for you for some reason, then you can use your own hobby rather than work experience. The advantages of this approach are approximately the same.

In the process of searching for an idea, you can use not only personal experience, but also the experience of other people, as did, for example, the founder of a resource for remote tutoring TutorOnline Alexander Pashkov. Alexander got the idea for the startup from his wife, who helped her niece improve her Russian language. At the same time, classes were held only by telephone, but the girl quickly began to demonstrate success.

At the same time, Alexander’s friend also started teaching via Skype. Realizing that this online learning format was the future, the friends founded their own service. “Even in our student years, we worked part-time, solving tests, and we knew what students lacked and what teachers lacked, so that the educational process was as optimized as possible,” says Alexander. This knowledge undoubtedly helped to improve the operation of the service. In 2015, the number of TutorOnline students exceeded 10 thousand people from fifty countries.

Tip #3: Look for problems

One of the surest methods for finding business ideas for those starting from scratch is to first find problems that need to be solved. Moreover, here it is also worth starting not with global problems, tormenting humanity, but with what you personally or your friends have encountered.

To begin with, it is worth observing yourself for a certain period of time. What difficulties do you periodically encounter? Is there a service in your city that offers solutions to these problems? Does it work effectively? And are you ready to pay someone to solve these problems?

This is exactly how the founder of the Moscow motorcycle towing service came up with the idea of ​​his own business. Evak2me Alexander Kozlov: “I recently needed to evacuate my motorcycle, but transporting it was not an easy task. This gave me the idea to organize a motorcycle towing service.”

The service appeared in June 2015, and by November 400 motorcyclists had used its services. The figure may not be the most impressive, but the service is still new. Moreover, Alexander also has a business selling used motorcycles and several bakeries.

Remember that your problems are most likely not unique; many people face them every day. This is only a plus for a novice businessman: it means the pool of consumers of your services will be quite wide. Remember that your business idea does not have to be completely unique. It is much more important that it be in demand.

But at the same time, make sure that your idea does not completely copy the business of existing competitors. It should have its own “zest”, features that distinguish it from others.

For example, Dmitry Ogorodnik from St. Petersburg wanted to open a business in the jewelry market. But instead of a standard store that sells gold, silver, artificial stones, and natural minerals, the entrepreneur decided to concentrate only on the latter. This is how the online jewelry store made from natural stones, Mineral Market, appeared, which managed to occupy its niche in a highly competitive market. Over the three years of operation, 50 thousand people have become customers of the store, and you can receive ordered jewelry in 67 Russian cities

Tip #4: Think like an entrepreneur

The main thing a beginner should do when looking for a business idea is to change their way of thinking, says the co-founder of the network "Tonus-Club" Elena Korostyleva: “Get in the habit of looking at the world with your eyes wide open. Lead an active lifestyle, go to different places, constantly strive to learn something new.”

And when faced with something unknown, for example, an unfamiliar service, do not hesitate to get as much information as possible about it. Even if this information turns out to be useless for your business personally, your horizons will expand.

At the same time, it is worth looking at familiar things from a different angle. When entering a cafe, try to think not like a client. Instead of just waiting for your coffee and enjoying the interior, try to count the number of seats, employees working, the price of dishes, people passing by. In short, try to create an approximate financial model of the establishment. Try to see business in everything that happens in your life.

Tip #5: Copy with care

If you want to start a business from scratch, ideas for it can be borrowed from abroad. Try to look at Western or Asian markets, study what solutions are there, how they are scaled, what obstacles are encountered on the way to their implementation. At the same time, keep in mind that someone’s path cannot be repeated one after another with the same result.

“There were many mistakes in the strategy we initially chose to create a business from scratch. So, having come from the USA, where we adopted Western experience, we tried to completely transfer the business model borrowed there to our post-Soviet reality. It was a big mistake,” recalls TutorOnline founder Alexander Pashkov.

In order not to “burn out” with someone else’s, or even with your own, business idea, it is worth assessing its prospects in your region.

This is not so easy to do, especially without special knowledge or money for expensive marketing research. And yet, you can at least roughly understand how much your business will be in demand using standard and free methods.

Tip #6: Use technology

The Internet is good both for choosing a business idea and for testing it. Using the World Wide Web, you can try to find a ready-made marketing analysis of the market in which you plan to work, or statistical data that will allow you to navigate the situation.

In addition, you can conduct research on your own. First, try to analyze the search queries of Internet users. Their frequency will allow you to understand how in demand this or that idea is.

To get better results, try selling your product or service. For example, you can place an ad on one of the online platforms, advises Jalil Kuryaev, director of the Business Nation company. And although you still have nothing to sell at the stage of searching for a business idea, such a move will allow you to find out what interest there is on the part of potential clients.

Tip #7: Prepare the soil

Those who want to start a business from scratch should test their ideas outside the virtual space. Try conducting a survey among your friends about the demand for your future business.

Define a profile of your potential client. Who is he? Where does he live? How much does he earn? What does it ride on? Where does he dress and relax? The information should be as detailed as possible. “This will simplify the task of winning your client and will allow you to understand in the future where and how to promote your business,” believes Irina Kulikova, founder of a wedding agency Kulikova Event Agency.

When this issue becomes clear, you should try to reach your potential consumers. Offer them your idea for solving their problems and gauge their interest. “You shouldn’t be afraid that your idea will be stolen. Any businessman will tell you that an idea is worthless until it is implemented into a project. And, as you know, it’s much more difficult to implement than to come up with,” advises the co-founder of an online freight transportation service “Everyone is lucky” Ivan Plastun.

It is very important to find out not only whether customers like the idea, but also whether they are willing to pay for it.

If ten potential buyers tell you that they are not willing to pay for your product, then that is the problem. A conversation with a potential client will save time and save a novice entrepreneur from a situation where he is doing something that no one needs.

When analyzing demand, it is not at all necessary to communicate directly or make a cry on forums on the Internet. If you already have some samples of your products, and the target audience is wide enough, you can simply conduct “field” tests or tasting.

If you don’t yet have anything at all except an idea, try to make a commercial proposal. Send it to your clients and see if they are interested. If successful, this will make it possible to conclude contracts for future supplies.

Tip No. 8. Don't look for perfection

Don't try to find the perfect business idea once and for all. Of course, your idea must be in demand and verified, especially in financial matters. Otherwise, you simply risk losing all your money by doing an unprofitable business. But you should be prepared to change the initially chosen course and adjust your project to the needs of the audience.

Moreover, even if your business idea has already been implemented and the business is generating income, you should not relax. “The process of searching for business ideas should never stop,” says Elena Korostyleva from the Tonus Club network.

Continue to look for ideas, be ready to start a new business as part of a successful project, or even close the last one and completely switch to a new business.

To summarize, it is worth noting that the search for a business idea for beginners from scratch is no less complex and responsible than the detailed development of a business plan and its implementation. Your business does not necessarily have to “blow up” the market.

You also shouldn’t suffer and invent something that no one has done before. Firstly, not everyone is capable of creating a sensation, and secondly, a business idea must be understandable to end consumers and in demand among them.

Today, tens of thousands of people are looking for business ideas without investment on the Internet. But if you don’t lie, then you can’t start a business without any investments. But we tried to select ten interesting business ideas that require little money, accessible to most of our fellow citizens (even students and alcoholics). What was taken beyond the permissible limit was... a thousand rubles! True, many of these undertakings will require considerable labor costs. Well, and the presence of some means of production.

No. 1. Atelier at home or custom bow ties

If you have a sewing machine, your arms grow from a place closer to your head than to your legs, and you do not only cross-stitch, then this idea will suit you. And you can even spend a thousand rubles on the purchase of materials (fabric and thread). After all, you have a machine? Well, we’ll deal with advertising in the currently fashionable way - creating a group, public pages on social networks VKontakte, Facebook (less competition), as well as on thematic sites dedicated to fashion. You can do not just adjusting clothes or hemming curtains, but also sewing bow ties, ties and handkerchiefs, which is quite fashionable now. And you can have your own 10-30 thousand rubles of net income per month. Not bad for a student.

Labor costs
Advantages- Stability of earnings, quick start.
Flaws

No. 2. Mobile computer administrator

Do you know how to reinstall Windows? Do you know how to install an antivirus in ten minutes and what safe mode is? Can you imagine how to connect a mouse to a computer? No, you are not an administrator yet, but you can become one. It is advisable to have a laptop at hand. And also the effort to place dozens of advertisements on sites ranging from aggregators like Avito to social networks. Yes, you will find clients quickly. The cost of one visit, depending on labor costs, is 1 - 5 thousand rubles (possibly more). The flow of clients has begun - don’t refuse anyone, connect your friends who also understand this topic. Monthly income can be 30-60 thousand rubles.

Labor costs- about 3-9 hours a day, depending on the number of orders and the success of promotion.
Advantages- zero investment, a large number of potential clients.
Flaws- High density of competition; you really need to understand the topic.

No. 3. Food delivery to offices

This is where your culinary skills will come in handy. With the starting capital (1 thousand rubles) it is quite possible to buy ingredients for a set lunch for 8-10 people - just enough to feed a standard office. Based on 150-180 rubles per serving. Yes. Delivered lunches are not such a high-margin business. But you can fully count on your 25-40 thousand rubles a month. And if you also involve other “culinarians”...

Labor costs- about 4 hours a day depending on the number of orders.
Advantages- there will be clients for sure.
Flaws- it is necessary to conduct a real advertising “campaign” to attract customers in office centers.

No. 4. Photographer for anything

Do you have a good camera and a desire to take photographs? Don't your photos make your friends gag? You can become a photographer! Photo sessions, photo sets, erotic photography, love story, wedding photographer and much more: everything is in your hands. Proficiency in Photoshop is highly desirable! But the work is quite free and multifaceted. It’s better not to cooperate with the media - they pay frankly little. Monthly earnings range from 30 to 150 thousand rubles. You will have to do a lot of self-promotion.

Labor costs- from 1 to 12 hours a day. It all depends on the flow of clients!
Advantages- zero investment.
Flaws- you need to be a real professional in this matter, otherwise dissatisfied clients and competitors will do something bad to you.

No. 5. Husband/wife for an hour

More than 28% of families in Russia are single-parent. Moreover, if women need a strong male shoulder, then men lack comfort in their homes (and cleanliness). This type of business is not prostitution at all (or whatever you are thinking about). But to help women assemble this strange wardrobe not from Ikea, fix the bed, faucet, replace the wallpaper... Or tidy up the apartment of single men. Yes, there really is a demand for such services. The average bill is 1000-1500 rubles. Monthly income can reach 60-70 thousand rubles.

Labor costs- 2-3 hours a day.
Advantages- business without investment.
Flaws- you really need to be able to do something with your hands.

No. 6. Vkontakte community

Do you consider yourself an advertising guru, your posts are liked by friends and strangers, and in an attempt to avoid the flow of news from your feed, your acquaintances unfollow you? Then perhaps you should try yourself as a cool SMM person. Your income (let's look realistically) can range from 10 to 200 thousand rubles per month, depending on the activity of the audience and the number of participants in the group.

Labor costs- 1-10 hours a day.
Advantages- complete absence of investments, flexible schedule.
Flaws- you must be a really cool SMM person.

No. 7. real estate agency in its own right.

Searching for advertisements on city websites and open advertising platforms, a sea of ​​“positive” from clients, the need to get discounts, preferences and the eternal search for buyers or sellers - all this and much more you can get by working as a realtor. Oh yes, dozens of calls are waiting for you. Get ready to be sent. But you will gain enormous experience in direct sales and handling objections.

Labor costs- from 5 to 12 hours a day.
Advantages- you will definitely meet the thousand rubles and learn how to sell. Income per month can be about 30 - 80 thousand rubles.

No. 8: Manicure at home

If you are a girl and are into manicure (or false nails) and have experimented with your friends, then you can be advised to open a beauty salon at home. For a thousand rubles, just buy expensive varnishes from Tiffany and or false nails. Feel like a cosmetologist!

Labor costs- from 3 to 8 hours a day
Advantages- high income. From 20 to 100 thousand rubles per month. It all depends on your skills and working hours.

No. 9 Loaders on call

Everyone always needs strong guys. And really for everyone - from private clients who just want to transport a piano, to small, medium and large companies that periodically or one-time need to lift, move something, and so on.

Second important point- You don’t have to be a loader yourself. That is why the idea becomes twice as attractive.

First, you look for people who can perform these duties. The good thing is that no one will require special education or a license for such work. With these people, whose informal base can constantly change and be supplemented, you agree on a piece-rate payment option.

At a minimum, the business is ready after this. You simply look for orders and implement them. However, this method will be too superficial and will not bring good income.

It would be better to open an individual entrepreneur and open a current account. After all, if you plan to work with organizations, the invoice will help you avoid difficulties. Firms don’t like cash too much, otherwise there will be somewhere to transfer your payment.

Now, a little about how to search for orders. After all, without orders there is no point in all activities. There are several standard and simplest options:

1. We go to the World Wide Web and look for any organizations in our city. And then we simply call ahead and offer our services right now and for the future. You must leave your contact details. We warn you right away that the exhaust from cold ringing will be small. But it will. On average, 100-200 calls will provide you with one order. And then - progressively. Someone will remember you if necessary, someone will take note.
2. Simple announcements on boards and social networks. You can't go anywhere without this. Let your company's contacts be visible. Usually people do not hesitate to call at the slightest need, if only to find out the price.

Don't forget to think about the price. And before that, monitor the current prices in your city.

Labor costs- about 4-8 hours a day, depending on the number of orders and the success of promotion.
Advantages- There are always orders
Flaws- Low prices

No. 10 SMS informing parents about their children’s school attendance

As they say, a million-dollar idea, but with its own difficulties. And the safety of children is a topic that never ceases to be relevant.

The idea is to install special machines in schools and provide children with cards. When a child comes to and leaves school, he places his card on the machine. The parent immediately receives a notification about this on their phone.

Income is based on subscription fees for using the service. The service itself is completely voluntary and has nothing to do with the regular access system in schools.

The question arises - how to come to an agreement with parents and with the educational institution itself. Actually, it's not that complicated. School management will be interested in installation if two conditions are met. First, equipment for the school will be free. Secondly, at least some parents will support the idea.

It will be possible to reach an agreement with the parents if you immediately explain that this is a voluntary matter. And that no one will take extra from them. Only pay for the SMS messages themselves. In that case, many will agree that being aware of your child’s movements for a small fee is a good idea.

Business will naturally require investments, but, which is very good, small and quickly recouped. So, the equipment itself for one point will cost approximately 20 thousand. One card will cost 30 rubles. Cards can be issued to parents on bail. For example, 100 rubles. But this is precisely a deposit, not a purchase.

Next comes a monthly subscription fee. For example, the same 100 rubles. This will not be affordable, regardless of the family income level. Now a pack of cigarettes costs the same. Only smokers spend 100 rubles a day on this, not a month. One SMS message will cost a few kopecks.

According to statistics, 30 percent of parents perceive the idea very well. But the biggest difficulty is getting them to pay on time and not forget about it.

After launch, you will need to organize your work so as to respond in a timely manner to changing numbers mobile phones parents to whom notifications will be sent. You can also quickly and inexpensively replace lost and broken children’s cards.

After launching in one school, installing equipment in others will be easier, because there will be a good working example. To understand how quickly this type of investment can be repaid, take 1,000 children per school as a point of calculation. This will give you a rough idea of ​​your earnings level.
Advantages- Relevance of the topic
Flaws- Difficult to agree

No. 11 Sale of bottled milk

Milk is one of those products for which demand never falls. Even during an unstable economic situation, when prices soar, leaving the income of the population far behind. Therefore, creating a business based on the needs of customers, simplifying the matter with a competitive product, is not too difficult. Moreover, milk, for example, from a barrel, can actually be sold cheaper than bottled milk in any chain hypermarket.

To start, you can purchase a barrel, for example, 500 liters. And these will be the only significant costs. If you are trying to save money, then it is more profitable to consider selling barrels from hand rather than from the manufacturer. In this case, you can spend 50-70 thousand rubles.

This barrel easily clings to the car and is easily transported from place to place. If you do not have a car, you can include someone in the scheme who can transport it by agreeing on a fixed amount for the trip.

The next main step is to find a supplier. This could be any farmer who is not too far away. The scheme of working with him is simple - every morning you take milk from him and make a payment on the spot.

However, it is important to remember here that the milk must be taken to the laboratory for analysis in order for you to be issued a certificate. And when everything is done, the milk and the certificate are in hand, you need to come to a specific point and sell (it would be better to hire a seller).

As for the price, it is quite possible to buy milk from farms at a price of 15-20 rubles per liter. Of course, in particular cases, everything will depend on the volume of goods. You need to sell it a little cheaper than the store price, but not much. Otherwise it will be unprofitable. For example, 30-odd rubles.

What you will need from the documentation:

• Individual entrepreneur registration
• Employment contract with the seller
• Sanitary book for the seller
• Papers about renting a place of trade
• Product certificate

It’s better to rent a place near the market, or get permission from the city administration for a specific location.

Labor costs- about 8 hours a day

Advantages- Demand for the product is constant

Flaws- Lots of permissions required

No. 12 Rent of 4-wheeled bicycles

4-wheeled bicycles, or velomobiles as they are called, are an excellent type of family recreation in any park areas equipped with normal paths. Naturally, such units will not be specially purchased. But, as practice shows, renting is a popular idea. Moreover, one velomobile can accommodate up to 6 people. Therefore, the entertainment is interesting both for a family of several people and for a group of friends.

Park areas, embankments in cities, and recreational areas may be suitable for business. As for the price, on average, a Chinese-made velomobile will cost about 50 thousand rubles. However, there is a cheaper way - to find a craftsman who would make custom-made wheels himself. There is nothing complicated about it. But, of course, you have to look.

For those who have very limited funds, the option of installments or a loan may be suitable.

Once you have decided on a place, you need to understand who owns it. If it does not belong to a specific company or individual, then you will need to obtain permission from the city administration.

The rental price should be based on your costs, but you can’t go too far in this case, otherwise clients simply won’t respond even if they have the desire. For example, 100 rubles for a half hour drive is quite an adequate price for a more or less large city.

When organizing, remember that the client is required to take not only a fee, but also a deposit. Usually this is an identity document. Otherwise, you will quickly lose your “vehicle fleet”. If you want to completely protect yourself from theft, install a special device - a tracker that will show the coordinates of each velomobile.

If the rental is large enough, then it will be more profitable to hire additional staff who will work in shifts.

Labor costs- about 4-6 hours a day

Advantages- Wide audience
Flaws- In large cities there is already high competition + seasonality

#13 Freight transportation without costs

The idea is based on the fact that you do not need your own freight transport. Because you will be working with hired drivers who have their own trucks.

In fact, there are a lot of drivers who could respond to your request. This is due to the fact that searching for customers is not the most pleasant experience and many limit themselves to simply advertising the opportunity to hire themselves with their own transport. Not everyone gets into the advertising jungle either.

How exactly to work with drivers is up to you. The main thing is to agree in advance. Some people prefer piecework based on the number of hours they are employed. Others calculate mileage. It may be easier to set your own percentage. That is, you find a customer and transfer him to a specific driver, who, having completed the work and received the money, gives you the agreed portion.

Finding customers is not as difficult as it seems. There are several common options:

• Calling organizations in your city
• Paper advertisements around the city
• Specialized sites on the Internet

When talking with a client, be sure to fully voice your terms. And when the customer gives his consent, immediately discuss all the details - place, time, cargo itself, additional conditions and wishes, phone numbers and responsible persons.

Even if the client is a “one-time” one, save his contacts, in this way you will ensure that you have your own customer base, to whom you can re-offer your own services and inform about promotions.

Labor costs- full time on the phone

Advantages- Standing orders
Flaws- High density of competition.

No. 14 Sale of berries and fruits from Thailand

At first glance, the idea may seem strange. After all, we have not been living behind the Iron Curtain for a long time. And trips to exotic places, where you can enjoy such things, are not so outrageously unattainable. However, in an era of economic crisis, as statistics show, many people prefer to postpone their vacation until the future. And in fact, a very large percentage of the population does not travel outside our country.

Therefore, organizing a business selling “specific products” from hot countries is a completely feasible task. The main thing here is to find a supplier. The problem is that those who constantly work with the delivery of goods from other countries and can help with the preparation of all documents do not deal with goods in small volumes. And they won’t take on small batches. Therefore, you will have to spend time and effort searching.

Another option is to find a person who will buy goods in a specific country and send it to you by air. Naturally, payment will be negotiable.

The price at which you will sell products in Russia will have to consist of several factors. For example, customs costs, production costs, buyer's fees, and postal interest will be affected. But the most important thing is the time it takes for the product to deteriorate. The smaller it is, the greater the percentage of markup on the price tag you will need to add. Because the loss of part of the goods in such a business is an inevitable fate.

The assortment can be completely diverse, unlike in a store, where you often won’t find anything other than a couple of items. So, you can start selling the following dishes:

• Durian
• Pomelo
• Coconut
• Banana
• Rambutan
• A pineapple
• Darogonfruit
• Mango
• Guava
• Mangosteen
• Jackfruit
• Longkong
• passion fruit
• Chempedak
• Tamarind
• Salak
• Tangerine
• Sapodilla
• Papaya

And this is not a complete list of what is possible. Naturally, over time you will be able to optimize the range depending on the results.
Advantages- Unusuality, the ability to target an audience with a high level of income.
Flaws- Possible difficulties with customs

No. 15 Sale of waste from production and expired products

A strange idea for making money nevertheless has a completely working scheme behind it. The fact is that many food products, when they expire, are simply disposed of. Naturally, factories and companies that have to throw away a product that has not passed the sales stage spend some money on these processes. It is necessary to pay for transportation, disposal itself, and the work of the people involved in this matter. Naturally, it would be more profitable for them to get rid of these expenses if someone took away or bought such products.

The question is - for what? It's simple. If you take, for example, bread that is already subject to disposal, then you need to keep in mind that it is still suitable. As an option - for cattle feed on numerous farms. The same is true for the confectionery industry.

Therefore, your task is to find a “supplier” of such products. If you go to the factory, you may encounter a refusal. Because, alas, some productions use an expired product, breaking it down into ingredients, which are subsequently mixed into a new fresh batch of the same product.

But, of course, not everyone does this. Therefore, among several plants and factories you will definitely be able to find a supplier.

It is better to start solving the problem with accounting. This is where price approval takes place. It is also possible to agree on payment of a symbolic price on your part. Up to 1 ruble per kilogram of product. But there will definitely be a price tag.

Once a supplier is found, it will not be difficult to find a buyer. A small price for your product will help with this. Start with advertisements on profile portals. You can also visit farms in person to reach an agreement. Over time, regular customers will participate in this scheme.

Labor costs- about 8 hours a day

Advantages- Low cost of goods
Flaws- Graphic density

No. 16 Cosmetic repairs of apartment building entrances

The scheme of this type of business is based on contracts with management companies and housing offices. The fact is that the departments themselves often do not have their own teams of workers who will carry out the orders. And, considering how many houses even in small towns need to be monitored, the work is ongoing. The housing office is likely to turn to hired teams. This is the kind of hired brigade that you will have to assemble that is ready to take on orders. And this will be the first step.

Finding a person who can perform certain construction and repair work will not be difficult. If you don’t have such friends among your friends, look for advertisements, there are a lot of them now. To begin with, a small staff of 2-3 people will be enough.

The second step is to determine the price of the work. It is better if your team includes a builder or repairman who already knows the value of his employment. This way, when communicating with a potential customer, you can immediately announce the price tags. This is important so that the client does not “fly off”. If difficulties arise with this, contact construction companies. They usually provide consultations for free.

After this, all that remains is to find the housing office that needs a brigade and discuss the conditions with it. It is important to enter into a contract once the terms have been agreed upon so that you can receive payment. Part of the funds will go to pay your team, and part will go to you.

As an addition to this business or its expansion, you can make money by transporting and delivering building materials.

Labor costs- Constant communication in person and by phone
Advantages- Standing orders
Flaws- Competition and bureaucracy

No. 17 Dry fog as a remedy for odors

Dry fog is so named because the device that is used to eliminate odors splashes out a special air suspension that looks exactly like fog. In fact, the mixture has a special composition that is sprayed in the form of microscopic crystals. They are able to penetrate even the smallest holes and gaps, simultaneously absorbing any odors.

The dry fog sprayer is not bulky at all. Like a vacuum cleaner, it can be carried with one hand. The cost of such a unit varies between 20-30 thousand rubles.

In addition to the device itself, as a consumable, you will need to purchase the liquid itself, from which the “miracle machine” will generate fog. The cost of one bottle is about 100 rubles. It is enough for about 1 whole car, if you need to remove the smell from the car.

The odor removal procedure takes about forty minutes. In experienced hands - even less. Dry mist can deal with many odors. For example, it calmly removes the old smell of tobacco in the cabin. According to statistics, you don’t have to think about the appearance of this smell after the procedure for at least a whole month.

When building a business, you don’t need to inflate the price tag for the procedure, this way you will get more clients. 500 rubles at a time will be quite enough. The main thing to remember is that in order to achieve the effect, you must first remove the object that is the source of the smell. So, if it is a spoiled, rotten product, then you first need to remove it, and then begin the cleaning procedure.

Another important detail is the raid. It can form when a mist suspension settles. Therefore, you should remember safety precautions when covering important elements with film.

Prices for services are usually based on area. The larger the room where you want to remove the smell, the higher the price tag for the procedure.

Advantages- Low competition
Flaws- Difficult search for clients

No. 18 Sale of waste from livestock farms

We have already discussed the opportunity to make money by selling expired products to farmers food production. But from these same farmers you can also find goods for subsequent sale to another buyer.

We are talking about animal waste products from farms. They are usually stored close to the farm itself. Of course, there are those who do the export and sale themselves, but not everyone can devote the time.

In order to transport waste from the “supplier” to the customer, you will first need a suitable truck. There are several options here. Firstly, in the village located next to the farm there may be a suitable vehicle. And together with the driver. And given that in villages the income level is usually lower than in the city, payment can be easily negotiated.

Secondly, you can buy a car yourself. Moreover, a supported one is best suited. Because you will be transporting manure and because there is no point in spending large sums on a new car from the very beginning of the business.

After the issue with the vehicle is resolved, you will need to negotiate directly with the farmer, who always has the goods in stock. And since without such offers the farmer has to remove the waste himself, it will not be difficult to come to an agreement with him.

The further stage of setting up the business is associated with the workers who will load the “material” into the machine. Again, it is worth hiring people, either living in a nearby village, or the farm workers themselves.

The last step is to find a buyer. Such waste is good as fertilizer for plants. Therefore, the main audience to target is the owners of crop farms and summer residents. In the second case, you can park a car with manure on the necessary days directly at the entrance to the dacha communities. Then the clients themselves will ask you about the cost of the manure you sell. Or you can use standard methods - posting advertisements and the Internet.

According to statistics, the cost of one manure truck varies between 2000 rubles. In successful cases, more than one truck of manure can be sold in a day.

Labor costs- Full time work

Advantages- There are always suppliers
Flaws- "Dirty job

No. 19 Meeting people during quests

This idea combines two popular services among people. Quest rooms are currently a popular entertainment and dating service, which, judging by numerous dating sites, will never lose popularity.

The gaming environment and new sensations always encourage closer cooperation even between complete strangers. Therefore, the idea deserves attention. Naturally, the search for potential clients in this case is primarily carried out via the Internet. And even if, during the process of playing the game in real time, people did not have the opportunity to find a partner, a good time will not leave them in a bad mood. Clients will still be happy.

Advantages- Combination of two popular ideas
Flaws- Competition

No. 20 Advertising on your own windows

We have all become accustomed to seeing advertising everywhere - from newspapers to street advertisements on banners and even simple poles. Advertising today is the engine of any business and advertisers are constantly looking for new effective platforms. This means that finding a client among those who need to place their advertisement is a matter of time and desire.

Recently, the idea of ​​offering advertising space on your own windows and balconies of residential buildings has begun to develop. If you are a person who is ready to sacrifice your “glass” or space on the facade for the sake of earning money, then you should think about this method.

There is no point in describing how to find a client; first of all, you need to be able to offer and not be afraid to communicate. But for those who lack such skills, there is an easier way to unobtrusively sell their place. You can organize a small billboard where, before an advertisement from a specific company or person appears, your inscription about the sale of this very advertising space will hang.

It all depends on your creativity. Alternatively, you can write popular words: “your advertisement may be here.” And it’s natural to add a telephone number under this slogan. In this case, there is a high probability that the client will find you himself. Especially if the place you offer is really well suited, that is, it is viewed from the side and will be visible a large number of people.

Labor costs- Almost not

Advantages- Passive income
Flaws- You will have to sacrifice your windows or facade
