Service Businesses are in tremendous demand in this fast paced world, and the quickest and easiest way to go if you need to get up and running fast with a small business of your own, especially if you are like the majority of women and traditionally have less access to venture funding.
Here are some more examples of businesses that require little or no money up front:
Virtual Secretary, Assistant or Transcriber
Are you good with words and organization? If you are, a virtual secretarial service business may be the perfect solution, especially in this day and age when so much business can be done online from the comfort of your own home. A virtual secretarial business is fairly easy to market since a large number of people from all walks of life and even more businesses can use someone to type, transcribe and other organizational tasks. Virtual secretaries can also be a live voice on the other end of the telephone for smaller operations that do not want to risk losing potential clients who are turned off by answering machines and voice mail systems.
The only thing you may need for this type of job is a program(if you are using a computer) and the necessary forms and paperwork to help organize and properly prepare the paperwork. If you have to supply the paperwork, you can charge additionally for this.
You will want to advertise at your local office supply store. If you want to target businesses you may want to look into local online business directories, and free classified ads. If nothing else, you can put an ad in your local newspaper and go from there.
Miscellaneous Online Entrepreneurial Ventures
Throughout these suggestions I have mentioned posting your ad on your local, free online classified ads. If you do not have one, you can start your own usually for less than $50.00. These businesses give you a great advantage since everyone who comes to the website to post their ad, will see your “Sponsored By” ad at the top or bottom of every page. Plus, while you are advertising your new business you can also advertise you new virtual business or community service website as well. Think about it, it only takes one extra line of text on your business card for a web address!
There are also many different turnkey Biz in a Box type websites that you can purchase such as those I sell at LadyWeb.Biz for example. Whoever you choose to purchase your turnkey Biz In A Box from will probably include free installation, and be able to guide you to inexpensive website hosting and a domain name.

It is not wealth one asks for, but just enough to preserve one’s dignity, to work unhampered, to
be generous, frank and independent.
– W. Somerset Maugham (1874 - 1965) Of Human Bondage, 1915
