Small business with low investment and high profit

Asked Feb 1, 2008, 06:32 AM — 60 Answers
Hi,

My name is Monica Srivastava.
I want to start my own new business. Though I don't have much capital to invest, as I am working but don't have enough savings to invest in business. I don't know if its weird to ask whether there could be something like business and done without investing?
Actually any business needs lots of investment in material, taking a shop, etc. Which becomes a really costly affair. I don't have so much money, yet in order to fight the difficulty that my family is in, I need loads of money, that too in a short period of time. This is not attainable by doing a job paying 25,000 to 30,000 a month.
If you could please suggest what business should I take up which fulfills my needs, I'd ever appreciate that.
Will wait for a reply soon
Thanks and Regards
Monica

No, not all the businesses require large capital. Business that provides services some time requires little investment. For instance, if you can sing, you can provide service by singing without capital investment (some outfits maybe). What skills do you have? What do you have passion on?

Many people start selling something, from commecial equipment to insurance. They can do a ebay business and more.
Many start part time and grow.

Ideas about small business
Hi,

Thanks for the answer for my previous question, that I want to do a small business with very less or no investment. And I got 2 answers for that. That I can sell my skills e.g.. Singing etc. Second that I can sell things.
Well I am a resident of India, things are quite different here as compared to the US. I don't really have skills that I can sell Like singing, dancing etc. As here if you have to sell your skill you should be a mster in thesame. Which I am not. Asking about my passion, it is at the moment money making, because that is something which I so much require.
So now my question is if you could plese give me specific ideas of small business, which includes very less or no investment and still could give me high profits. Something which could work well in India. Please give me specific suggestions and not things in the form of examples. I really need to get going on this, so please help me.

Thanks Dear, for getting in towards giving me an answer, well I have worked in call centres, as customercare executive. Also lately I was working with Vodafone as written Communication Officer, till I fell down the stairs and injured my tail bone. So I was on complete bedrest for last 4 moths. Hence had to quit the job. Currently I am without a job, looking for one and/or looking for business options.....
Will look forward for your answer
Thanks n Regards

Hi, busybee25!

I know that you deleted your response here. I have just undeleted it. Since I subscribe to this topic area and am also the Moderator for it, I did notice your response. So, there was no reason to private message me about it. That's part of how this site works. What you post you might think is an answer to your question when it is really a response to the person who has responded to your question.

I am sorry that you have had to undergo some hardships in your life! But, it does sound as though you have some skills that you might be able to market in order to find another job.

Are you able to work in an office situation under your present physical condition?
