How to open a business with minimal investment in 2019? What business ideas from scratch will make your business profitable? How to choose the right business idea for your situation?

Hello, dear friends! You are greeted by entrepreneurs and founders of the business magazine HiterBober.ru Alexander Berezhnov and Vitaly Tsyganok.

We are often asked what business to start with minimal investment; we are asked to recommend a working business idea.

Make yourself comfortable, we're starting.

1. What business ideas with minimal investment work in 2019

A business idea is the basis of any profitable business. There are commercial ideas that have brought millions in profits to their creators and continue to work for them to this day. These people started their business from scratch, having only a great desire to achieve success. We talked about this in detail in one of the popular articles on our website.

Business ideas for beginning entrepreneurs do not have to be brilliant insights (although this option is also suitable): it is enough to use ready-made solutions and just start working according to a certain scheme.

In this article we offer business ideas with minimal investment for residents of a metropolis, small town, or village.

Below you will find projects for women, men, students and retirees.

Some business ideas involve working from home, others require having your own production facility or at least a car.

Even in 2019, when some businessmen are ceasing commercial activities due to a sharp decline in demand, there are niches that, with the right approach, can bring good income.

Business niches relevant in 2019:

• earning income via the Internet. (read our article);
• provision of various services to the population;
• training and consulting;
• resale of goods through electronic bulletin boards;
• production of handmade products to order.

All the business ideas described in the article are different, but they have one thing in common: the absence of large investments at the initial stage.

The amounts that will be spent to open a business vary in the range from 100 to 15,000 rubles (5$-300$ ).

Agree, almost anyone can find such funds.

However, there are many examples where people managed to achieve stable material well-being literally from scratch. These people just brought their original and cost-effective ideas to life.

Here's an option for those who primarily think about the safety of their savings: opening a franchise business. You receive a ready-made commercial model with guaranteed efficiency and pre-calculated profitability.

We invite you to take advantage of the offer from our partners - a chain of Japanese restaurants. We know one of the co-owners of the network, Alex Yanovsky, personally. This is an entrepreneur with 20 years of experience who has launched many profitable projects.

Moreover, another friend of ours, Sergey, opened a Sushi Master point in Maykom in the “island” format. The 1.5 million he invested paid off within six months. So the scheme works - proven in practice!

In section 5 we will tell you in more detail how to competently open a franchise business.

2. Why many business ideas fail at the start

The main reasons for failure in a newly created business are, as a rule, organizational in nature.

In other words, you must have a business plan (we have already discussed in detail) - a step-by-step guide to action. No matter how small the initial capital may be, it must be spent strictly for its intended purpose. If the money runs out at the start, this means that a strategic mistake was made.

The most common reasons for the failure of novice entrepreneurs:

1. Lack of customer focus. You need to interest your potential client. When starting a business, even a very original and new one, think about how to convey its exclusivity to other people.
2. Mistakes in cash flow management. Financial illiteracy, abuse of loans and inability to properly allocate available resources ruined the lion's share of young projects.
3. Lack of purpose. If your business idea doesn't have a clear goal, it will either not work at all or will stall in the process of bringing it to life. Decide what level of income you want to achieve and what you will do with the initial profits. The best option is to put them into action.
4. Lack of competent leadership. If more than 1 person is involved in a business, there must be someone who makes decisions.
5. Procrastination– postponing important business steps until later. Act immediately and start with the main thing!
6. Excessive caution. Unjustified risk will also not bring benefits, but fear is even more unprofitable for the development of a profitable enterprise. If you constantly wait for the perfect moment to implement your idea, you can spend years waiting for it. As one humorous and at the same time lifelike phrase says: “If you look at a girl for a long time, you can see how she gets married.” This applies to those who hesitate and miss out on a good opportunity because of it.
7. Lack of persistence. For some aspiring entrepreneurs, the first failure immediately unsettles them. Such people say “it didn’t work” and step aside. This is the wrong strategy. To ensure the viability of an idea, you need to test it several times - the more, the better. But this needs to be done wisely, constantly refining and adjusting the chosen direction. We repeat, by adjusting, and not just doing the same thing in the same way.

If a person repeatedly repeats the same actions, expecting to get different results, then he can be called insane.

Albert Einstein

And you shouldn’t expect instant returns even from what you think is the most brilliant business plan. Remember that only the most patient and persistent achieve success.

The main criterion when choosing a business idea is personal interest in any direction. Ideally, you need to make money from what you love and what you really understand.

In our opinion, a 100% successful business idea in 2019 must meet the following criteria:

1. Be based on what you love. Even the great Steve Jobs said that it is impossible to achieve great results by doing something you don’t like. Because you will quickly leave him if difficult times come, and they will definitely come.
2. The idea must be in demand by the market. You may really love cross-stitching or learning the language of the Tumba-Yumba tribe, but these activities are unlikely to bring you much income. Even if people are interested in these areas, the amount of money in these market niches is very small. Even without deep analysis this can be understood. In other words, with the same labor costs and talents, it will be much easier for you to earn money by selling real estate, building materials or cars than hats for hamsters, thimbles or decorative fly swatters.
3. Contain unique advantages. If you are choosing a niche or business idea for a future project and do not know how exactly you will stand out from your competitors, then such an idea is unlikely to bring a good financial result. Be sure to think about your competitive advantages. They can be price-based, for example, if you were able to reduce costs by finding a very profitable supplier. Your unique advantages can also be strategic, for example, if you endow your product (service) with unique consumer qualities.
4. A business idea must comply with legal, moral and ethical standards. You can earn a lot quickly and a lot, but you should think about whether this earnings will be fair. This is a fundamentally important condition when choosing a direction in business. If you don’t want to wake up at night from the police coming to your house or hear unflattering words addressed to you from clients, only engage in honest ways of earning money. Don't spoil your karma and sleep peacefully at night. Although, there are definitely people who are not embarrassed by anything. But this is their choice and everyone will ultimately be rewarded according to their deeds.

Education or work experience in a particular field can provide significant assistance. For example, a plumber can open an online store of plumbing products.

If you enjoy meeting new people, get into the organization business. Conversely, if interacting with people makes you feel uncomfortable and you feel better alone, start a home business - say, sewing and repairing clothes or technical translations.

Sometimes having a hobby helps to start a business. For example, people who deal with aquarium fish can turn their hobby into a source of income - start breeding fish (algae, plankton) for sale.

We can give some more specific advice to beginners:

• You shouldn’t take out a large loan from a bank to start a business, especially if you don’t have other sources of permanent income (it’s better to borrow from relatives if you absolutely don’t have your own funds) and if you clearly decide that you need funds to start your own business, then definitely study our article “”;
• start small: set specific tasks for yourself and complete them consistently;
• if your business is not related to the Internet, but is focused on a local area, think about whether the level of income of potential consumers is sufficient for your business to work (in other words, it is hardly worth opening a luxury clothing store in a village with a population of 5,000 people).

And most importantly, don’t be upset if the project doesn’t work: it didn’t work now, it will definitely work out on the next try. Experience in entrepreneurial activity is much more important than having start-up capital.

4. Ideas for business with minimal investment - TOP 15 best business ideas

And now specific ideas for those who want to start working for themselves and making a profit today. Let’s say right away that you also need to be able to use ready-made projects and ideas. Each option must be considered and compared with specific realities.

If you have little experience in business or are just about to open your own business, use our selection of business ideas for beginners.

Business idea 1. Reselling things on Avito

Avito is the most popular free classifieds site in Russia. Thousands of purchase and sale transactions are made here every day: some people buy the goods they need, others successfully sell this product.

Where big money circulates, intermediaries are needed. It is not at all necessary to sell your own things: you can search for buyers and sell them other people’s things, and at the same time receive good interest for your services.

Why is this relevant? Many people want to sell something they don't need, but don't know how to do it or don't have enough time to do it. In addition, there are sites where you can purchase goods cheaply in bulk, and then sell them at retail at a price that is favorable to you.

If you want to understand thoroughly how to make a profit on Avito and even build a business on it, check out our article “”.

In fact, most stores are engaged in intermediary activities. In this case, you will not need to pay money for renting a warehouse or retail space: all your activities will take place on the Internet.

You will also have to organize the delivery of goods to the client - but for this there are already proven schemes: you can use the services of the post office or a delivery service. If things go well, you can think about creating your own online store.

An excellent option for making money on Avito, which we personally verified, is the sale of Chinese goods. You can purchase a trial batch of souvenirs, watches, jewelry, household items and place advertisements with descriptions on this bulletin board.

This option for making money is also called “Business with China.” Young guys earn 200, 300 and even 500 thousand rubles a month net from it, starting from scratch under the guidance of a mentor.

You can also replicate their success if you decide to resell Chinese products. We can recommend you as your guide to the world of online sales. The team of our site knows him personally and we know for sure that Zhenya is an excellent expert in the “Chinese” topic.

For clarity, watch the video where student Evgeniy shares his success story after completing the training:

Business idea 2. Organizing a holiday agency

Organizing your own agency for holding holidays and events is one of the easiest ways to open your own business. People celebrate and will always celebrate birthdays, corporate parties and weddings, despite crises and other disasters.

Your task is to help them organize a holiday. You can specialize exclusively in children's parties: the children's audience is less demanding, and it is easier to amuse a child than an adult.

The holiday agency sells services that cannot be touched with your hands, so the main criterion is professionalism. First, you need to hold 5-10 events at a high level, after which you will definitely be noticed and recommended to your friends. The presence of advertising on the Internet and the media will not hurt, but the benefits of word of mouth should not be neglected. Satisfied clients will recommend you to each other.

Business idea 3. Advertising agency as a business for beginners

A small advertising agency can consist of 2-3 people and does not require large investments at the initial stage. All you need is creative ideas for advertising and a decent level of knowledge of the basics of computer design.

Our good friend, Evgeniy Korobko, opened his own and is now successfully developing it. Zhenya quit his job when the income from his small advertising business exceeded his salary.

To begin with, an advertising agency office can be organized at home: it doesn’t matter where exactly you receive and implement requests from clients. All the initial capital that you have can be entirely invested in advertising for your advertising agency (no matter how paradoxical it may sound): the very first normal orders will more than recoup the money spent.

It is better not to skimp on the means of production - a computer, a scanner, a printer - all equipment should be the most modern. It is not necessary to create a full-fledged staff: now there are plenty of free artists (freelancers) who will design an advertising layout or create a corporate identity for a minimal fee. At the final stage, the main thing is to search for orders.

Again, if you use the World Wide Web wisely, there will be no shortage of clientele.

Experts in this matter believe that the most profitable branch of advertising is creative: the creation of original ideas, slogans, logos, layouts and banners. You can set prices for your services yourself. The main indicator of success is a stable increase in the cost of the information product you create and the number of its sales over a period, for example, per month.

Business idea 4. Organization of a “husband for an hour” service

The “Husband for an Hour” service is especially in demand in medium-sized and large cities, where there is a large number of busy people, and even men, not to mention women, will find it useful to use the services of private handymen.

No initial investment - only advertising. The main condition is professionalism. Do you know how to quickly install a switch, fix a faucet, or repair household appliances, wiring and plumbing? Then this is your business.

It is better, of course, to have your own car in order to arrive when called as quickly as possible.

If you are a good organizer, you don’t have to deal with household repair work directly, but rather coordinate it. It is necessary to organize a network of employees (narrow specialists in a particular field) and distribute calls among them, taking into account the specifics of the work and territorial criteria.

Specialists of such a service can be both generalists and specialists in a certain field: electrical, plumbing, finishing work.

One of our friends, his name is Evgeniy, opened such a service in the city of Stavropol, at first he worked on his own, then he began to hire people. Now he has a popular and sustainable business.

Business idea 5. Freight transportation

Organization of cargo transportation is a promising direction, since the need for such services is constantly growing. This is due, among other things, to the development of Internet commerce. Goods purchased by customers need to be delivered, preferably as soon as possible.

To start, you can open a small transportation agency in your hometown. You don't even need to have your own fleet of cars to carry out the cargo transportation itself. It is enough to find clients for your services and agree with car owners on the price of the transportation itself.

In this way, you organize your own dispatch service, which, as an intermediary, makes money by reselling applications from the consumer (a person or company that wants to transfer goods) to the contractor (the owner of the vehicle).

We know a guy, his name is Denis, who first worked as a hired gazelle driver for a year, and then bought his own gazelle and started making money on it. Now, 4 years later, he has almost 20 cars, which he gradually took out on credit and hired the same hired drivers to drive them.

How Denis’s cargo transportation scheme works in numbers

Let's look at the example of one car that was taken out on credit.

Loan payment per month 15,000 rubles + 25,000 rubles driver's salary + fuel and depreciation 12,000 rubles.

Total: costs per car: 62,000 rubles per month.

Revenue from one car at an hourly cost of 400 rubles per day with a 10-hour working day and an average vehicle load of 7 hours a day 25 days a week is 400*7*25 = 70,000 rubles.

It turns out that the profit is equal to: REVENUE 70,000 rubles minus COSTS 62,000 rubles = 8,000 rubles.

*All calculations here are taken as approximate and may not reflect the full picture regarding the specifics of this business.

Let us repeat, this final profit figure is obtained if you took out the car on credit.

The profit will be either minimal or almost zero. After the loan for the car is paid off and it becomes your full property, the profitability (profit) from this transport unit will increase significantly.

The opportunities for growth in this area are unlimited.

2) Business ideas for a small town

Business ideas for a small city have their own specifics. You can make money in small towns using the simplest and most popular things. But what if the population of your city is from 10,000 to 100,000 people? The answer is below.

Business idea 6. Breeding and selling animals

If you are the owner of a private home and love the animal world, you can start breeding animals for sale. First, of course, you need to decide what kind of animals you will breed - guinea pigs, dogs, cats, newts, hamsters. The main criterion is the availability of a market for sale. By the way, purebred dogs and cats with good pedigree cost tens of thousands of rubles.

Organizing a home nursery as a business is a good idea to start in a small town or even a village.

If you take a broader view and obtain the appropriate knowledge (education) and documents, you can grow into a veterinary clinic and, at a minimum, open a store selling food and related products for pets.

You can also raise rabbits at home. They multiply quite quickly and sell well.

Depending on the size and breed, the price of a live rabbit ranges from 800 rubles (15$) to 4500 rubles (65$).

If everyone in your city loves boxer dogs, do business with them. Of course, the matter requires a preliminary study of all the nuances. It is advisable to talk to your veterinarian about the most common problems when breeding animals of a particular breed.

Business idea 7. Shoe repair and key making

In many cities, including small ones, there are shoe repair centers. If you don’t mind working with your hands and doing adhesive stitching, stuffing heels and replacing zippers on women’s boots, then you can easily organize such a point in your locality. All you need for this is a room of 5 square meters, a couple of shelves, tools and the ability to engage in this type of activity.

Also, do not forget to officially register as an individual entrepreneur so as not to have problems with the authorities. It’s easy to become an individual entrepreneur; to do this, read our article “”.

Shoe repair and key making businesses are often combined into one location due to the similarity of operating conditions.

And if there is a crisis in the country, then this will only benefit you. In such conditions, people spend less on new shoes and prefer to repair old ones, if possible. If you know how and love to work with your hands and want to be your own boss, this business is for you.

Business idea 8. Private cosmetologist (hairdresser, makeup artist)

To provide the services of a makeup artist, hairdresser, skin, nail and body care specialist, it is not necessary to rent a room and open a SPA salon with expensive equipment and many employees.

You can cut people's hair and do makeup at home - the main thing is that you know how to provide these services efficiently. Many women prefer to use the services of a home (almost personal) hairdresser - and the cooperation sometimes lasts for years.

Having developed a client base, you can have a constant income, without exaggeration, throughout your life. After all, this service is required by your clients at certain intervals.

Working from home as a private beauty specialist, you can provide the following services:

• hair cutting and coloring;
• manicure;
• pedicure;
• wedding hairstyle and makeup;
• sale of related products (shampoos, gels, varnishes).

Working as a private master, you can become a full-fledged stylist in the future or open your own beauty studio.

Business idea 9. Tutoring

Good tutors are worth their weight in gold for many students and schoolchildren. This private education services business is suitable for professionals in any field.

Services of this kind are especially in demand during the season before entering universities.

How do clients find out about you? You can advertise in the local newspaper, on television, or via the Internet. And the best way to find clients is by communicating directly with students. For example, most teachers in schools work as tutors before graduating from school (graduation class) or vice versa, before entering an educational institution in preparation for entrance exams.

A good tutor earns good money per hour: you can work from home or remotely via Skype. In this case, your client market is unlimited. We will tell you more about making money using Skype below in the article.

Private lessons do not necessarily mean teaching science. You can teach people to play the guitar, cross-stitch, and weave beaded bracelets. If you can do something very well, why not teach it to others for an appropriate reward?

Business idea 10. Opening a canteen

This business idea is relevant not only in 2018 and 2019, but at all times.

In small towns, as a rule, there are interruptions in catering establishments. Opening a canteen where the food is tasty and home-style will help resolve this issue to the benefit of the owner and clients. It is not necessary to immediately open a large dining room with 50-100 seats: for starters, 5 cozy tables are enough.

The main thing is to maintain your brand and cook truly delicious food. An activity such as individual entrepreneurship is registered - the only initial costs are: rent of premises, purchase of products. Analysts believe that this market segment in small cities is very profitable, especially if you have reliable staff and thoughtful services.

In any city, even a small one, there will be people who want to eat a tasty meal for reasonable money, a full meal with first and second, and not run around the shops in the hope of quickly “grabbing” something edible.

Such a business idea will be in demand both in large and small cities, where well-known public catering chains are practically not represented, and this will reduce competition for you.

3) Business ideas at home

In this section, we have prepared ideas for those who want to work independently without leaving home.

Business idea 11. Making crafts at home (hand-made)

If you know how to make dolls, funny animals, wood products that children like and more, organize a hand-made business at home and sell your products through the same Avito or a specialized website. Hundreds of people are already doing this and making a profit.

Once we interviewed a girl who earns money in this way and lives with us in the city of Stavropol. And it all started as a hobby. To learn more about how to turn your creative talents into real money, read “” - an interview with Anna Belan, founder of the creative studio “SUZORAMI”.

Exclusiveness has always been valued, and if you really put your heart into creating crafts at home, you can earn several thousand dollars and at the same time teach other people this craft for money.

Business idea 12. Opening a home web studio

The latest Internet technologies will bring stable profits if you use them correctly. Do you have experience in creating websites, Internet applications, or do you know how to competently promote network resources in search engines? If yes, then you should create your own web studio.

The population's need to create their own Internet platforms is constantly growing - why not take advantage of this demand? By opening your own web studio, you will work exclusively for yourself and, moreover, do what you love.

By starting this business at home, over time you can expand the enterprise and become the head of your own IT company, and entrust the creation of websites, online stores and sales pages to freelancers or full-time employees.

Business idea 13. Training and consultations via Skype

The Internet has destroyed borders between states and distances between cities. Now you can teach others without leaving your home. Skype and other methods of Internet communication allow you to give lessons and consultations regardless of location.

Using Skype you can carry out the following types of commercial activities:

• teach foreign languages ​​to everyone (if you are a specialist, of course);
• provide legal advice;
• consult clients as a psychologist or psychotherapist;
• teach people entrepreneurship;
• fortune telling, making horoscopes.

The opportunity to study at a distance is beneficial for the teacher and the student - no one wants to waste time and money on movement. Any skills and knowledge are now within walking distance - 20 years ago one could only dream of such opportunities.

Nowadays, working on the Internet, including using Skype, has become a very popular area. If you have competencies that can be sold remotely, you can travel and work at the same time. And this lifestyle is the dream of millions of people around the world.

Business idea 14. Creating a profitable website on the Internet

If your online resource is popular and is well promoted in search engines, then simply by placing contextual advertising and banners on it, you can have a stable and quite considerable profit.

We have already written above that our website HeatherBoyor.ru is a prime example of such a profitable site.

If you are truly passionate about information technology, then creating your own website (blog) can become for you both an additional source of income and a main one.

Your visited site will simultaneously solve several problems for you:

• build your personal brand and expert status in any niche;
• bring you profit on a regular basis as a store, cafe or other offline business;
• motivate you to learn, develop and learn new things;
• develop talents in various areas: copywriting, management, marketing, negotiations (when working with advertisers).

If you are interested in the topic of creating a website in order to make money on it, read our article “”, in which we described in detail, step by step, the entire creation process, what types of websites exist, how to choose a CMS, hosting, domain and much more.

Business idea 15. Home atelier - sewing and repairing clothes

Sewing and repairing clothes at home, like shoe repair, can become your home business during a crisis.

If it is not possible to purchase an expensive item in a boutique, why not alter or repair used clothes at a lower price? There is no need to pay rent for a home studio: you just need to advertise your business.

We have a friend who works from home and sews dresses, including wedding ones, and earns more than the average salary in our city.

To open a home studio, you only need your skills, a sewing machine and a desire to work.

This concludes our list of popular business ideas. We will be glad if you choose the one that suits you and build your successful business on its basis.

We also have an excellent article about that, in which we described more than 35 ways making money through the World Wide Web.

7. 3 legendary business ideas that changed the world

The 3 business projects below most effectively and clearly show how an original idea that seemed to be on the surface can work:

1. Amazon.com. The creation by American entrepreneur Jeffrey Bezos of the virtual online store Amazon, in the image and likeness of which hundreds of other chain stores now operate, has changed the idea of ​​online sales. Like many successful companies today, Amazon was located in a garage. Its founder attracted talented programmers from Silicon Valley to create the project and, thanks to his entrepreneurial talent and focus on customer needs, became one of the greatest businessmen in history. If you are considering opening a store on the Internet as a business idea, then study our article “” - this is step-by-step instructions from practitioners of their business.
2. Electronic games company Atari. The creation of the first electronic game and video game manufacturing company, Atari, by Nolan Bushnell in 1972 marked the beginning of this mass industry. Nowadays, electronic games have taken over the world. WarCraft, Counter-Strike, Quake, Heroes, StarCraft, World of Tanks and many other currently popular computer games owe their origin to those now distant times when personal computers were just a big dream of mankind.
3. Making diapers. In the mid-20th century, Victor Mills, an employee of Procter & Gamble, invented the now world-famous consumer product disposable diaper, thereby producing a real revolution in the consumer goods market. Now this product seems so ordinary to millions of families. But in the distant 60s of the last century it was something like a human flight into space. Now, thanks to the well-known Pampers brand, all diapers have come to be called “diapers,” although this is only the name of the brand, and not the product itself.

In fact, there are many more than three legendary business ideas that changed the world. Hundreds and even thousands of people have used their talent, intelligence and imagination to make the world as we know it.

Analyze your abilities and talents, find what you like to do. Maybe the next person to change the world is you!

How to open your own business without investing money - 7 proven business ideas of 2019 for beginners and aspiring entrepreneurs

Let's try to figure out how to start a business from scratch or with minimal investment and how much money you will need at the initial stage.

If the business involves renting premises or equipment and will go beyond the apartment, then the first step is registration as an individual entrepreneur (IP).

Main disadvantage- in addition to all other expenses, there will be an annual fixed payment to social funds, which amounts to a little more than 20 thousand rubles.

There are also advantages:

1. Using a bank account and cards issued to an individual when making payments.
2. The possibility of legal deliveries of finished products to other cities and countries, as well as the possibility of remote ordering of goods or materials.
3. Work experience and contributions to the pension fund.

The need to register an individual entrepreneur depends on the expected production volumes and turnover of funds. To evaluate them, you need to draw up at least a minimum business plan, where all expenses, expected profit and payback period will be taken into account.

In addition to registering a business, also take into account rent, costs for the purchase of raw materials, materials and necessary equipment.

It is not enough to simply produce a product or provide a service. We still need to convey all this to the end consumer. Think in advance about possible advertising methods and costs. This could be television and local newspapers, leaflets and brochures, social networks and thematic forums.

Reduce business investments as much as possible, especially at the initial stage.

Instead of hiring staff, involve family members and relatives in the process. Use free methods to promote products. Buy goods or raw materials at wholesale stores.

If you use a telephone to communicate with clients and suppliers, follow the offers of cellular operators or choose an unlimited tariff. Using these simple rules, costs can be significantly reduced.

Business options and ideas for women

Not only men, but also representatives of the fairer sex are often interested in the answer to the question: “How to start a business from scratch with little capital?” Is it possible to find an inexpensive, low-cost option for entrepreneurship? The answer is clear - you can! After all, ideas for starting a business from scratch with minimal costs are literally in the air!

Decoration of candy bouquets

To work, you will need very little - the sweets themselves, bows, ribbons, colored paper and other decorative elements.

Costs for materials will be about 1-2 thousand rubles. The most vulnerable link in such a business will be implementation.

This product is quite popular, but it is needed at the right time in the right place. It's like a bouquet of flowers. The man came, he saw, he bought.

The best solution would be to rent a boutique in a shopping center.

Another option is that bouquets can be handed over for sale in a suitable place. The average price of goods is 800 rubles.

Cases for smartphones

Here the flight of imagination is not limited. Starting from the choice of material and ending with the external design. You can sew from leather, suede or leatherette.

Pay attention to the felt. Breathes, protects the device from shock, is wear-resistant, and easy to handle. Sold in sets of 10 sheets in different colors. Price – approximately 200 rubles per set.

One sheet is enough for the case. You also need thick threads of different colors. Total initial costs – no more than 500 rubles. A sewing machine is not required. Hand-stitched covers look even more stylish. In stores, such goods are sold for 300-500 rubles.

Business idea: sewing clothes for dogs

Possible customers are owners of miniature and short-haired dogs. As a rule, such clients require an individual approach, therefore work better to order.

Clothing for dogs can be decorative or walking. When sewing, the breed, gender, age and body structure of the pet are taken into account. The most popular materials for sewing walking suits are:

• raincoat fabric;
• padding polyester;
• velveteen;
• velours;
• knitted jersey;
• velveteen;
• artificial fur.

There are ready-made patterns, but it’s better to take the measurements yourself. Over time, a whole collection of ready-made templates for different breeds will be collected. Sewing overalls for a medium-sized breed (for example, dachshund) will take approximately 0.5 meters of fabric. Plus additional expenses - a total of about 200 rubles. The average price in stores is from 1000 rubles.

Ideas for your business at home

And now, let me present to your attention ideas for a business from scratch with minimal investment at home.

Production of photo blinds

Current and in demand product.

Photo blinds are purchased both for residential premises and for offices of large organizations.

You will need an inkjet color printer, for example ESFR 3 - this is the main expense item. The approximate cost is 115 thousand rubles. The printer is small in size and will fit on your desktop.

First, the drawing must be cut into fragments in a graphics editor. The blind slats are loaded one by one into the printer and printing is performed.

The final design does not fade over time and is not afraid of moisture. If you run your business correctly, the expenses will pay off in a month or two and the printer will begin to make a profit. Such a business can generate up to 200 thousand rubles of net income.

Soap making

Another good business idea from scratch with minimal expenses is making handmade soap.

You will need: base, additives, mold and cooking container. Simple baby soap is suitable as a base, or it can be purchased separately at a specialty store. The cost of 10 bars of soap is no more than 1000 rubles. The average price of goods in stores is 300 rubles.

Place the crushed base in the microwave. Then dyes and flavors are added to it. You can experiment with additives. Sugar, honey, milk and even condensed milk are added.

Pour the composition into molds. Anything will do - from a glass jar to a children's sand mold. After hardening, the soap can be packaged and the product is ready for sale. Fragrant soap in beautiful packaging - a great gift!

Packaging is very important - how the product will be sold depends on it. Assume that such soap is bought as a gift.

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.

The second important point is that 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 information. 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 that you can respond in a timely manner to changes in parents’ mobile phone numbers to which 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 possibility of making money by selling expired products from food production to farmers. 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 are offering is really well suited, that is, it is viewed from the outside and will be visible to a large number of people.

Labor costs- Almost not

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