How to start a business for little or no money!!


I know starting a business seems really scary to some people and i know there are millions of people who have a business idea but  thats it , its only an idea and its never transformed into reality. Do you fall into this category? Do you want to start making your own money but not certain where to start?

Business can actually be fun. It most definitely takes a lot of work to maintain success but it can be great plus making your own money and working whenever you want is just  the perfect dream to me. Luckily i can say i am living the dream and i want to help some of you guys live that dream too.


Business Ideas:

Coming up with business ideas can hard. i mean you want to make sure you come up with an idea that will work and make you the best profit and something that you will be happy doing.  There are so many businesses out there and a lot more to be created but often times we don't think outside of the box or come up with creative ideas. We often look at what everybody else is doing and because it seems successful we want to do it to.

The first thin you want to do is give it some though . Think about the things that you like and what you would really love to do. Then think about way you can  turn that in a business and make it  the best business in that industry.  I came up with my business idea one sunday morning laying  down in bed. I was tired of getting up every morning applying for jobs . I  had no motivation and was under a lot of stress because i had bills to pay and i wasn't sure how i was going to pay them.  Then i just tarted to think of running my own business and what  i would actually do if i had the money to start it . I started to think about it a lot and then i would write down more ideas and plans for this "business". I then  started to save all money i would get from temporary jobs and family until i had enough to start a website. Little diid i know that i didn't really need money to start the business. There are so many free blogs and social media sites that i could have used to advertise my services. Anywhoo i created my website with no knowledge whatsoever  by looking at other sites and using some of the things they had that i liked and tweaking it , making it my own.

I started posting videos on Youtube, sharing my services on Facebook, Twitter, Linkedin, Pinterest and others and then i got my FIRST SALE!!!! It was so awesome and then everything else after that went smoothly. Business is great now. Sometimes i stay up till 4 am in the morning doing work but it's all worth it when i get the pay check or when i get a good review.
