Starting a business with little to no start-up funds

Getting a little tired of going back and forth to the office now that pandemic restrictions are but a mere memory?

Prefer to work from home?

Dream of turning a hobby into some serious cash?

It all sounds so great, but what about the startup costs?

If your pockets are empty and the only thing coming out of your wallet is moths, launching your side hustle can seem totally out of reach.

Don’t fret! It’s possible to start your own business with next to no capital. Consider the following low-cost business ideas:

  • Virtual Assistant – the possibilities are truly limitless with this business. You can offer admin services (like scheduling, customer support, clerical work, and data entry), or branch out into specialized areas that offer better pay, like online business management or launch management.
  • Online Tutor/Course Creator – if you love to teach, why not work from home teaching students over Zoom, or create instructional videos for your hobbies? You’ll reach a worldwide audience instead of teaching in-person at your local library!
  • Affiliate Marketing – if you have a blog, web audience, or a YouTube following, consider being an affiliate marketer for various products that align with your interests. Selling suggested products on Amazon is a great way to bring in money without touching a cardboard box or a tape gun.
  • Graphic Design – this one has tons of potential! One of the millions of things you could do as a designer is create logos, pictures, or witty sayings to market to crafters who make custom mugs, shirts, drink tumblers, and Christmas ornaments.

There is a ton of money to make if you’re inventive. It all boils down to solving a problem for someone. That problem might be…

‘I’m too busy!’

‘I want to learn something!’

‘I need to find a good camping backpack’

‘I want to print mugs but I’m lousy at art!’

Endless possibilities!

When it comes to side hustles or leaving the grind behind, a financial advisor can help you navigate and enjoy all the possibilities of retirement.
