Start a Business With Little or No Cash

I am a huge fan of operating your own business. If there is something you are passionate about doing and you can find a way to make money with it, then what are you waiting for?

Oh, you don't have the cash needed to get up and running, or you don't have any ideas about what you'd do? Here are some businesses that you can start for little or no money from Startup Nation.

1. Tutoring - 76 million school-aged children, "No Child Left Behind", tougher state requirements for students and standardized tests all make this area a huge demand for services.
2. Child Care Provider - 20 million children live in single-family homes whose parents need to work.
3. Cleaning/Lawn Service - Homeowners have less time and are willing to for these services.
4. Personal/Business Coaching - If you have a heart for teaching and helping individuals or business owners, it can be very rewarding. We're hiring!
5. Party Planning - We're spending more money today than ever before on kids birthday's, weddings, graduations, etc. Other opportunities include invitation design, decorations and party favors.
6. Computer Services - More people are using advanced electronics today than they were this time last year, and that number continues to grow. If you know anything about technology, you may be an oasis in the land of computer nightmares for some people.
7. Personal Organizer - I am currently working with a handful of personal organizers in different parts of the country who have great businesses and no limits on what they can make. If you can show someone that organizing a room or an entire house will save them time and money, you'll soon have a huge list of clients.
8. Photography/Videography - The options are virtually limitless for creating great wedding or special event videos or presentations.
