It really depends on what you’re good at. You could do anything if you have the right skills; write articles or stories, make and sell craft items or paintings, gardening, car-washing, lawn-mowing, cleaning, ironing, odd jobs, dog-walking, cat-sitting, child-minding, baking, fixing people’s cars or computers, buying second-hand bargains and reselling on ebay for better prices, web design, blogging with advertising on the page, filling in online questionnaires for cash – the list goes on and on. Have a good think about what skills you have.

If you really want to just make extra cash, then starting a specific business may not be the way to go – it might be better to look for opportunities to do as many jobs as possible!

Well I must add that it’s good to read that you have the entrepreneur spirit! You should definitely focus on what “interests” you. From there, develop a “Cash Concept”, which explains the different ways that you can get paid for your “interest”.

Another good way to find your “niche” is to contact some of your local business owners. Tell them that you are interested in starting your own business and just wanted some insight. Business owners usually don’t mind, especially if you show a genuine interest.

Back to the subject of “Cash Concept”; think of as many ways that you can get paid for your interest. If it’s lawn service, then what about contracting with new home developers? landscaping? pressure washing? stump removal? yard treatments?

Create a plan and execute your plan.

Good luck and take care.

you have to pick something you know about and enjoy doing – lots of books at bookstores and libraries on different types of businesses to start
