A few years ago, most people’s life plan consisted of a relatively common and uniform project: Study until you get a degree, start a family, and keep a good job until retirement age. Simple, safe, quite comfortable and predictable. And most of us would often ask ourselves: what should I study? In which company do I apply? What additional incentives can I apply for? The space for uncertainties or innovative thinking was minimal, if not nil, and was limited to making proposals (and crossing your fingers) with one or two improvements to the work environment or the company’s products and services for which you worked.
Fortunately, times and people have changed synergistically and based on that; the tendency to undertake has taken hold. It’s no longer rare to get someone to look favourably upon exploiting your own small business ideas. In other words, now it has become very rare to find someone who wants to stick to the traditional plan and leave the idea of starting their own business to others. Even those who combine both visions to obtain an intermediate version with the best of both life plans. For these people, the predominant questions are others: What do I invest in? What business ideas pay off the most in the shortest time? How much money do I need to invest? Let’s check it out!
Personal trainer
Is life fitness your thing? Are you happy sweating and moving your body? Then becoming a personal trainer is ideal for you. This idea to start your small business is perfect for you if your willingness to help others and your voice of command is combined with a certification. A growing trend is quite popular in all sports disciplines that are also marketed very well on Social Networks and can lead to other related businesses, such as healthy meals and healthy eating and life coaching.
Local Delivery Services
Yes, the big courier and package delivery companies are still there, and they are not going anywhere. However, nothing better than a private motorcycle, car or bicycle to deliver packages locally, quickly and efficiently, and at a lower price. Every day more people add their personal means of transport to help avoid the bureaucracy and slightly more expensive rates that use a more recognized courier and delivery services.
So, the image of a person in shorts uniforms delivering packages no longer dominates the market. And it makes sense. The field of work has expanded thanks to many others’ entrepreneurship, and thus, other small entrepreneurs do not have their own home delivery service. The individual needs lunch or a pair of shoes to be brought to him because they’re stranded somewhere. There you fit perfectly. If you also add the services an application, then your business opportunity goes to the fixed. Make yourself known and start pedalling.
Food Trucks
In Latin America, the big business of preparing and shipping fast food from a truck has been part of the picture forever. However, new trends and market demands add differentiating elements that you can use to introduce your own successful business idea and make it extremely profitable. Do you prefer sweets rather than fast food? A waffle and cupcake food truck is perfect for running too! In any case, investing in a food truck does require a little more investment, study, preparation and compliance with laws and regulations. Among them, you must specify the point where you will put your truck, the demand for similar businesses at that point, and the permits related to the handling and sale of food.
Manager
Many people who keep office hours or are dedicated to their own ventures lack the time necessary to do personal errands such as going to the bank, taking clothes to taking clothes from the dry cleaner, buying food for the week, etc. In some Latin American countries, taking care of these tasks is called an agency and whoever executes it is called a Manager. It is usually an occupation that leaves good money since the services can include everything from going to Notaries to picking up movie tickets and the like. Having an agency that places a manager at third parties’ services is an idea for a small business that promises to emerge in the coming years.
Personal Shopper
This is the most stylish and elegant name for Personal Shopper. A personal shopper is generally in charge of choosing, purchasing and delivering clothing and footwear for special events. However, some hire services to take care of the entire wardrobe, without obeying a special occasion. More than an investment, what you really need to become an excellent personal shopper and make your business successful is to have a good eye and sensitivity to choose the best clothes and shoes for your clients, and take care of details related to finances who entrust you with their wardrobe. Start with your friends, and get them to spread the word. Then you can open your own blog or website and share tips related to your niche. If you are persistent and dedicated, you will soon be hiring and training others to make your small business idea a trustworthy personal brand.
On the other hand, the Internet has given way to a whole new range of jobs that began to exist only a couple of decades ago and have emerged a lot in recent years. What is unique about this line of employment is that they do not require the employee and even the employer to satisfy the demand for services, and most importantly: Each one in itself represents a successful small business idea to manage from the comfort of your home.
Now that you have decided which industry you want to start a business in, you can begin the journey of becoming an entrepreneur! Check out the second part of this article here!
