Starting a Business in the Recession.Only for the brave? There are numerous reasons for starting a business, and many very successful businesses have grown almost by accident. Whilst Richard Branson obviously had a major game-plan, who could have believed his Virgin empire would have grown out of school-boy trading?Timing is crucial, but so are opportunities, brilliant ideas, hard work, great luck, natural ability, and of course good cashflow. Whilst the current recession has its business casualties, it also creates great opportunities. How many civil servants and former Connaught employees have been biding their time to strike out on their own? Redundancy is a great catalyst to get budding entrepreneurs into harness. And whilst the market may appear to be shrinking, houses must still be maintained, parcels must still be delivered, book keeping records and accounts must still be kept, websites built, roads dug up and re-surfaced, property traded, vehicles repaired and maintained. The list of potential opportunities is endless. So what is required? Firstly a pretty clear plan of what you are doing and why. Today this should take the form of a written business...more

When it comes to how to start a vending business the first thing you should ask yourself is "Why". The reason you need to ask yourself "Why" is because a vending business can be very tough if you aren't fully committed to it and the reason for that is because vending businesses are small residual income. I don't want to seem like I am talking down on vending businesses because I am not, I have one of my own and I love it, but the reason I love it is because I have built my vending business from 5 stands to over 50 stands all which bring in around $8 per week. So if you do the math, it is great.The first thing you do once you know why you are starting the business is find the vending machines. The hard part about finding vending machines is you need to buy what you can afford while still getting something that looks decent enough to place in a store. I would highly recommend searching on Ebay for vending machines and my suggestion would be to start with the Vendstar 3000 because that is a very simple yet elegant looking machine, and it cost around $50 per machine.The next thing you need to do is find some locations to place your machines at, this is what everybody...more
