There are many ideas to choose from, but here are just a few. Eventually, you will use your own Ideas to make Money.
- Write a list of things you are good at. Now think of some things that are needed in your community that you can provide in one way or another. Write a list of them
- Match up pairs of what you can do (eg. Good at Cooking - Need someone to provide cakes/Flea Market)
- Do some research on places where to sell and what the things you need cost.
- Create a business plan to help you work out: How much is it going to cost? How much am I going to get out of it(Profit)? Where am I going to sell my product/services?
- Sign up for paid surveys.
- Assess your risks. If you don't seriously consider what can {and often will} go wrong, not only will you have trouble meeting your expectations, but you create a greater risk of failure. Ask: what is wrong with my location, product, financing, staff, customer base, marketing, etc.
- Mitigate all plausible risks. Risk is unavoidable - all you can do is choose those you are wilingto accept and have a rough plan to deal with the rest.
- Get prepared. Create stock, Create a flyer, plan how to decorate the stall(If you are going to the flea market), Check the stock and prepare a cash box with some money in it for change.
- Figure out your resources: money, time, tools and people. You will probably need to draw from all of them at some point. Think about what you may still need and try to come up with a way to get it.
- Remember that it won't, I can tell you now, IT WON'T WORK THE FIRST TIME!!! So keep trying.
- Another money making Idea is to check what you don't use anymore, but still sell-able.
- Set Prices for the Items.
- Sell them at your Local flea market or trade them in at places like 'Cash Crusaders' or 'Cash Converters' or sell them to your friends who need it.
