I am trying to find a LEGITIMATE business from home. As of June I will have two children and simply cannot afford daycare for both. It seems that everything I have been able to find tells me to send anywhere from $30 to $500 just for the information to start. I know a business will take some startup capital, but I don't think I should have to pay just for more information on a company…. Any ideas?

Go to the library , there is a reference book called the thomas register of american manufacturers. Once you find a product you love ,put it on ebay or a website. advertise the hell out of it for free. and you are well ,well on your way. Hope this helped.

Does anyone have any idea, or could give us a rough estimate of how much it would cost to start up a business in the first year. we are supposedly designing and releasing a new style electronic toothbrush. we already have a proto type. however we have no business premis, equipment or staff. Thanks

you are too vague for estimating, Are you going to manufacture? or buy from a wholesaler? or have someone else make it for you? How large a space do you need ? you will need office staff, warehouse staff, computer systems, software, Phone systemsforklifts, storage systems, Trucking companys need to be contacted and ….. Too many variables . You need a business plan


Depending on the risk factor of your business. Try your local business link. If it's anything to do with internet and property, I might be able to point you to the right direction. Good luck.

p.s. The secret is always keep at the back of your mind how much you can afford to lose!

I am looking to start a business in the North Georgia area. I have been in the construction related industry for 15 years. It seems every direction I go has market saturation. I am not rich so we are talking low startup cost. I am not looking for home based, this is more of a growth situation. Any ideas of a service or retail that is up and comming? Prefer construction related but all options are open.

this is my opion when you check in to this business put a survey out and ask the people what they would like to see in there area what kind of retail and what would interest them to find in the store
there needs.and you also have to look at the economy of your area were you are siting up your business and what generate of people that live there and what kind of budget those family live on and how much can they afford to spend on your product ounce you build your business in that area to support there need
i think electronic and computer are the way of the future to help people live there live more easier but if you went this way then may be you could think of having training program to help people out there that doesn't under stand a lot about the new technology that out there availability to them that what i would do.

Been in business since April 08 but made no money because I do not have the capital to get started. I have prototypes and have spent over 6400 hours putting this business together. Who do I sell to and where? I don’t want this to go to waste.

I hope you see the irony in your question.
You are asking for a business plan to sell a business plan.
Since you haven’t given any detail on what business you have, you are not likely to get a response.
However, I’d suggest you take a course offered by the small business administration before you give up on your idea. You will meet some folks that can help you out.

I want to start my own graphic design business, but cant afford the startup fees associated with it. I need to purchase equipment, rent an office, and promote my company.

Is there a grant that I can apply for, if so how do I get it and would I need to be incorporated? I have searched all across the web and have found nothing useful. what are the pro's and con's of being an IBO (Independent Businee Owner) and Soul Propriator?

Start it from home. Without money you have no other choice. ~
Going first class at the start takes money…
If you misspell a business plan as badly as this question, no one in his right mind will even listen to your idea
