How to GROW RICH starting your own business with very little investment!

Starting your own businesss is easier than you think! Now you've probably heard that it takes a long hard journey to do this. You think you have to suffer and invest all your money in it. This doesn't have to be true. Follow my steps and I'll walk you through and take you to the fulfillment of having your own business, having fun, and making a fortune! Come along with me, the best is yet to be!


Write down all the things that you can do. Maybe you're good at shopping for groceries...this can be a business. Or maybe you enjoy painting or you know how to paint a wall really well, or maybe you are good at organizing things into boxes, or good at edging yards or landscaping, or coupon clipping, or finding items people want - otherwise known as "jobber" or maybe you are good at typing and have a wordprocessor or at restoring old photos. Get the idea down on print. Have a few ready.


Once you have your idea straight the next step is to figure out what it takes for you to do the job. If you plan on shopping for people, do you have reasonable transportation? How will you operate your business? Will you take cash or will you lay out the cash and then just give them a bill? Will you use invoices?(you can buy ready made invoices at a Staples store or any office/stationery store) This will take some investigation on your part, but at the very least to get yourself started you can go into any office store like Staples and find ready made receipts which you can use. I recommend getting things in print because as a general rule of thumb when you're dealing in business you shouldn't just count on memory of yourself or your clients(It's amazing how they always remember in THEIR favor). Keep track of everything you do for them and bill them accordingly. If you are doing a painting job or any kind of home project..the general rule is half up front (for supplies/paint/whatever) and then half at completion.


Once you figure out what you want to do and that you have the tools to do this thing, then you need to get the word out. This can be done through the local paper. Many papers will list your ad for free or for very little cash outlay. You can also do something as simple as putting an index card up at the local supermarket or on your church/temple/mosque bulletin board or at the local schools (find out if it's available). On the card list what it is that you do and put something like "reasonable rates" and a number or email address where they can get ahold of you!" (E.g. "I dig up dog poop in your backyard! Reasonable rates!")Get the word out! Have a telephone number or if you have a telephone give them an email address (you can access your email from most local libraries). Whatever it is, there must be a way to contact you. Be prompt about getting back to them because if they're calling you they're probably calling a bunch of people. Be positive and optimistic on the phone whenever your work with a client.


Keep track of every phonecall or email. Keep a calendar book wit the dates/etc. (do this religiously)as to who you are seeing when, business meetings, etc. And keep track of gasoline you use, or your own home office as these things may be tax deductible. Keep all receipts in a shoebox or file regarding the business. Don't be afraid to ask for top dollar. If you don't know how much to charge, do some research in your field online and find out what others are charging for the work and try to lo-ball them with a lower rate or out-perform them. Don't underestimate the amount of hours you will work or how much to charge. Make sure you include charges for supplies. And if you can get a wholesale supplier, do so. You might even be able to get a special classification which enables you to work as a wholesaler. Investigate everything, do your homework, line your ducks up and get going.


Once you get one business up and running, start a new one. I heard a very wise business man once tell me that he always had two businesses going at the same time! In case one failed. But this didn't happen. You could start a job right now cleaning out someone's attic or organizing a mess. You could start your own cleaning business, or shopping for old people right this second, merely by going to the store and putting up an index card. There are not limits only the restrictions you give to yourself. Keep a positive spirit, ask for help from above and get going. Today is your day!
