Small Business Ideas

If you have your own small business idea check it out, research it as much as you can. Ask people you respect and who know something about small business. Do not ask someone who has always had a job for an opinion on a business because even though he or she may look and sound smart, he or she doesn't have a clue about what a real business is. Beware of the dream stealers. These are people will say "it can't be done" or "you can't do that". Every successful business owner has met these people and ignored them.

If you don't have a burning hot small business idea, you can brainstorm with your family and friends. Even little tykes can have great small business ideas because they are not burdened by popular thinking. Some apparently "off the wall " ideas can actually be excellent small business ideas with a little bit of refining. Small business ideas often come from noticing problems. One person's problem is another person's opportunity.

As you go through the process of thinking about a small business idea, you may come across some negative thoughts that come form your own brain. Sometimes, these negative thoughts can look like pure rational thought. You may begin to think about all kinds of reasons why this is not going to work for you. If this happens to you, I want you to watch this short movie presentation-it's  called the Dream Movie

 Small Business Ideas I Promote:

The following small business ideas are not in any particular order and they are not mutually exclusive. This means one program can help build another but you will make money from both. You will find over time that it is better to focus on one program but that doesn't mean you ignore other programs that work for you too.

One of the key steps to starting a small business is the market potential. Can I make money doing this? What's true for me may not be true for you. In the past, I have not been very good at making these decisions because I was not mass market focused. I always seemed to specialize in niche markets which can be good but if the market is too small, it's hard to make real money.

All these businesses below are already set up like a mini franchises. You plug in with a solid effort and you may achieve success. Compared to setting up and running a conventional business, there is nothing to owning and operating any of them. The key is that ALL the businesses below give you leverage which is the main benefit of owning any business. Leverage is something you don't have on a job.

Small Businesses for You to Evaluate

 I have been a customer  and user in all three of the following businesses. I can personally vouch for their credibility. All have excellent customer relations departments. I have absolutely no negatives issues with anyone of them over the several years I have been dealing with them. That's really important and can only be fully appreciated when you have the opposite experience. In addition, all of them provide lots of training and help with building your business.

 1. Health and Wellness Business: Immunotec and the flagship product Immunocal. Immunotec is the leader in the immune system sector of health and wellness . If you are tired of unsubstantiated health claims and benefits, this could be for you. There are only a handful of products but they are all excellent products. I have been a long time customer and personally endorse the entire product line and the excellent service you get from Immunotec. For more details, you can visit my Health and Wellness for more business information and glutathione-gsh for product info. My business name for my Immunotec business is "Wellness Plus For You."

2. Send Out Cards. For some people this could be a real time saver and business promoter. I use it to build a relationships with people who join any one of my online business ventures. Imagine being able to pick real greeting cards, write a note in them, sign them with your own signature, stamp them and mail them from your own home computer at a very competitive price? You can. You can even use your own photo for the front of the card and load your picture and business card on the inside panel. Great for any business person with lots of personal clients like real estate agents, insurance people, car salesmen, mortgage brokers, lawyers, dentists, chiropractors, optometrists, naturopaths, medical doctors and others. I have been a customer for years and can tell you the system works like a charm.

 3. Global Cell Biz This is a start up that could have massive appeal. It promises to bring prepaid, unlimited and flat rate cell  to the forefront of the North American market. More on Prepaid. It is being very slow to get off the ground. In Canada, the launch date has been pushed out to February-March so I am in  a wait and see mode here.

Since

1. Just about everyone owns a cell phone

2. Everyone likes a good deal and to save money and

3. Some of us who want to make more money in a business of our own.

Based on the above 3 points, this could be a real win win situation.
