Find Low Cost Work From Home Businesses

Some of the best business opportunities these days can be started from home with little or no startup capital and involve minimal risk. Some of the industries that continue to remain strong are services that save people money. I listed some great ideas in the article below.

For a great business to start from home, click on the link in my Resources below this article.

Difficulty: Moderate
Instructions
  1. Step 1
     

    Become an eBay entrepreneur -
    You can basically sell anything on eBay. EBay is an inexpensive and lucrative place to sell anything from broken items to real estate. A good idea is to buy discounted items from stores or businesses that are going out of business and sell them on eBay for profit. You can turn this into a full time business devoting 20-30 hours/week and easily make $1,000 - $2,000/month.

  2. Step 2
     

    Become a Mediator -
    There is no special license or certificate required to become a mediator in the US. The only thing you will need to be good at is networking among lawyers. Mediators can charge anywhere from $80 to $100 per hour. A good place to get started is the American Arbitration Association.

  3. Step 3
     

    Start a Telephone Answering Service -
    If you have a pleasant voice, are attentive to details and have great communication skills, this might be a good business to start for you. Depending on what services you offer (weekday, weekend, after hours, etc), you can charge $200 or so per month for each client. Your startup costs would include: telephone service, a business license & advertising.

    You can start an excellent online business in your spare time, click on the link below in the Resources and get started today.
