10 Part-Time Businesses You Can Start Today!
Starting your own business and becoming an entrepreneur can be
one of the most gratifying things you can ever do in your life.
If you are reading this article I'm sure you've asked yourself
"what business can I run while keeping my day job?" Here are 10
businesses that you can run on a part time basis until you ready
to hang up the "9 to 5" and "go at it fulltime".
EBay -
EBay has become one of the most popular and profitable
part-time businesses you can start. Thousands of people in
America and around the world are starting part-time businesses
using the online auction site eBay. From the comfort of their
homes, many business owners have created fast growing and
profitable companies. You can sell anything from antiques to
cars at eBay. It has become so profitable for some people they
have turned it into their full-time source of income.
Wireless Networking -
If you have knowledge of computer networking there is a untapped
opportunity for you. The opportunity is in installing and
servicing wireless networks in businesses and single-family
homes. Surveys have shown that more people than ever have
multiple computers in their homes. The surveys also show that
most people are moving toward networking those scattered
computers. This provides a tremendous opportunity for you! The
main barrier to starting a wireless networking business is the
lack of computer networking knowledge. Even though some
networking knowledge is needed, the advancement in wireless
networking technology has made the barriers to entry less
daunting.
Catering -
Starting your own catering business can be a very lucrative and
rewarding endeavor. Even better, catering is very receptive to
part-time operators. Whether you cater events on a full-time or
a part-time basis, the opportunities are excellent. There are
probably thousands of catered events taking place right in your
hometown every year. Catering is a $5.5 billion a year industry,
and enjoys a growth rate of about 6% per year. As long as
couples get married and corporations host annual parties and
conferences, caterers will be needed.
Wedding Planner -
Do you have a knack for organization and planning? If the answer
is yes, Wedding Planning may be a business for you. With over
2.5 million weddings taking place in 2005, there is a fantastic
opportunities for you to start a wedding planning business.
There is always a need for someone to oversee the details of the
Bride and Groom's special day. That "someone" -- the wedding
planner -- could be you! No special education, license, or
experience is necessary to start making money as a wedding
planner today.
Handyman -
There's big money in the Handyman business. Many homeowners
across the country hire handyman contractors to complete odd
jobs and minor repairs that they don't have the skills or time
to do themselves. This is an untapped market because most major
contractors pass on small handyman jobs. Your phone will ring
off the hook with calls from homeowners looking for someone to
handle the small jobs they can't fix themselves. Getting started
is as simple as getting the appropriate licenses, gathering your
tools and marketing your service. A simple and low cost way to
let the public know about your service is to advertise in
shopper publications and on bulletin boards, in addition to
dropping off fliers at real estate offices. Take these simple
step and start repairing everything from leaky faucets to broken
windows.
Non Medical Home Care Assistant -
"Starting A Non-Medical Home Care Business is fun, easy and
rewarding"...It is a little known fact that Non-Medical Home
Care is one of the fastest growing businesses in the United
States! Every year, millions upon millions
of dollars are spent
on Non-Medical Home Care. Most people, who enter the Home Care
business, usually do on a full time basis, but the business can
easily be operated on a part-time basis. You can provide
services ranging from respite care on the weekends to assisting
with household tasks. With the number of baby boomers
approaching retirement age, the growth of your business will be
tremendous. Non-Medical Home Care was rated as one of the best
businesses to start in 2005 and again for 2006.
Gift Baskets -
The Gift Basket Business is a multi-million dollar creative and
rewarding industry that has unlimited potential. Gift Baskets
can be sold for all occasions from Valentine Day to Christmas.
Individual as well as businesses buy gift Baskets on a regular
basis. You can create theme baskets, special order baskets, or
both. The opportunities are unlimited if you have the skills and
creativity to create high quality basket for special occasions.
Video Production Service -
The Video Production business is one of the best businesses you
can start on a part-time basis. If you have knowledge of digital
cameras, editing equipment and editing software, this may be the
business for you. Most Video Businesses start by providing their
services to the wedding and special event industries. Most
weddings and special events happen on the weekends or after
hours. This makes the video business a perfect sideline business
to start while maintaining your "full-time gig". Furthermore,
the video production business can be very lucrative. The average
wedding video costs $1100.
Office and Home Organizer -
This is one of the simplest businesses you can start. There is
little or no equipment required, no special training, and the
cost to get started is relatively low. You can get started with
as little as a stack of business cards. There is one caveat, in
order to be successful as an Office and Home Organizer; you must
have the skills to help the organizationally challenged attain
organizational success. You will be organizing everything from
entire homes and offices to closets and file cabinets. You could
expect to earn a salary of $25 to $50 per hour in your spare
time on the weekends or in the evening.
Junk Removal Service -
Did you know that in 2005 people spent more time at work than
every before in history? With such a limited amount of time for
leisure, most people don't want to spend the weekend cleaning
garages, basements, or hauling junk to the landfill. Their
disdain for the physical labor and the time required to complete
these jobs mean an opportunity for you. Your Junk Removal
Company can complete jobs ranging from removal of junk from
homes, apartments, businesses, and construction sites to
disposing of furniture, household items, old appliances, and
other unwanted items. You can work with realtors or homeowners
to help them get rid of junk to prepare their home for sale. You
can assist contractors with the removal of construction debris
before and after residential or commercial properties are built.
You will need the necessary licenses and a truck of some size to
carry everything from old refrigerators to construction debris.
If you do mine the heavy lifting this can be a very profitable
part-time business for you.
