Business Ideas for Beginner Entrepreneurs

Business Ideas for Beginner Entrepreneurs

You are sure that you want to start a business, but you don’t have much experience and even less funds so what is a good beginner business that will grow as you grow?  Here are a few ideas:

 

Household Services: With the increase in two job households, time to undertake housework and garden work becomes short.  There will always be a demand for services as gardening, cleaning, ironing and window cleaning.  You can grow the business by taking on staff and expanding your customer base.

 

Catering Services: If cooking, cake decorating or sommelier services are your skill then you can start up a small business with little capital outlay.  You can expand by taking on more staff and expanding your customer base, as above.  You can also move into a café, restaurant or professional kitchen.  Aligning yourself with party and wedding planners can expand your business quite quickly.

 

Craft Sales: If you have a craft skill and think you can sell your jewellery, pots, quilts, dresses, hats etc. then you have the making of an ideal small business.  Expansion by selling on the internet, eBay, etsy etc. or by holding party planning business.

 

Gift Business: If you are artistic then you can start a gift basket, floral, hamper, balloon etc business.  Expansion can be made by joining retail systems such as Interflora or by setting up a party business.  Expansion can be to a retail outlet or mall stall or kart.

 

Health Services: People always want to feel better.  If you are a skilled hairdresser, manicurist  or masseuse or are a keep fit enthusiast then you can easily sell these services either at people’s homes or offices.  Again expansion can be via a retail environment or by aligning with a party or wedding planner.

 

Caring Services: As the world gets older, they need looking after.  The fasting growing franchise companies are in the caring area.  If you feel that you can look after the mature and ill within their own homes and have the required skills this is an area which is very under supplied.  Expansion can be had by employing people and expanding your customer base.

 

I hope that the above has given you some ideas of small companies that you can easily start with little capital.  Good luck.

Leanne Hoagland-Smith
Are your sales where you want them to be? Will you be one of the few who achieves sales or business success or one of the many who have failed to change? Are you tired of being told you are like everyone else? Then you may find my first book on sales of interest. Be the Red Jacket in the Sea of Gray Suits, The Keys to Unlocking Sales available at Amazon or at http://www.processspecialist.com/red-jacket.htm. This book is a reflection of my no-nonsense approach to improving sales to overall business results. If you are truly committed to making sustainable changes, then I can help you secure a positive return on your investment because I focus on executable solutions not telling you the problems you already know you have. From training to corporate (group) coaching to executive one on one coaching, my approach is to assess, create awareness, build a goal driven action plan and then execute. The bottom line question is "Not do you or your employees know it, but do you or they want to do it?" Please call for a free strategy session at 219.759.5601. - Visit Leanne Hoagland-Smith's Website
