I've listed three low start up cost businesses that can be operated out of your home office.Online Auctions- Auction sites can be used to sell arts and crafts, clothing and/or unwanted household items, or brand new items. It is easy to set up an auction on these sites and the seller does not have to have a lot of experience to get started.If you are interested in selling new items, you can either find a supplier and keep stock of the items that you are selling, or you can find a legitimate drop shipper who will ship the products directly to customers. People are becoming very successful by reselling new and used items on auction sites on the internet. This business can be really fun.Errand Running Business- If you have the time and a vehicle, you can start a business by offering to run errands for others who are not able to do so themselves. Put an ad in the local newspaper and/or radio station and put up fliers at doctor's offices, businesses, grocery stores, etc. The elderly and working professionals often do not have a way to run their errands or time to do so and would gladly pay you to pick up dinner, dry cleaning, walk or clean up after the dog, etc.Organization Professional- Are you a neat freak? Does everything in your house have to be in its designated place? Why not use your neatness skills to help others organize? Have professional business cards printed, put an ad in the paper and on your local radio station, and offer to do a few home organizations for free to friends and neighbors in exchange for a good reference. Word of mouth advertising can get out the news that you are offering a service to help others get organized.So there you go three businesses you can start with just a small investment. It will take action and persistence to get a new business up and running. If you set a schedule and have obtainable goals that you are working towards you will succeed.
