Jewelry and Accessories Design
Creativity is the key to this business. The opportunities abound for
custom jewelry and accessories design. A huge market exists for your
custom made necklaces, earrings, bracelets and even belt buckles.
Holiday bizarres, cultural fairs, arts and crafts shows, conferences,
museums and even neighborhood farmers market are venues to
exhibit your designs.
Limousine Service
Limousine service is no longer for celebrities, elected officials or
corporate executives. Consumers are hiring limousine services for
weddings, proms, anniversaries, birthday parties, bachelor parties,
divorce parties, and any other special night out. With good customer
service and excellent driving skills your phone will be ringing off the
hook.
Massage Therapist
Are you good with your hands? Perhaps massage therapy is right for
you. Certification can take as little as 9 months. This profession
affords several career options. You can work independently for several
types of clinics such as sports medicine, orthopedic, chiropractic,
naturopathic and pain management. Travel to your clients' home or
office. You can even work on cruise ships. The possibilities are
endless.
Medical Billing
As the health care industry expands, the need for medical billers also
expands. Medical billers are responsible for collecting, analyzing and
processing patient information for payment. The main duty of medical
billers is to ensure medical facilities and physicians receive payment
for services rendered. Much of the medical billing services are
outsourced so a home business is perfect for this profession.
Medical Transcription
The demand never ends for qualified medical transcribers. Doctors,
hospitals, chiropractors and even veterinarians often outsource the
transcribing of patient medical records. This is an excellent
home-based business with endless possibilities for clients.
Mobile Carwash
Look around you, it seems as though every American owns a car.
Those cars need to be washed and not everyone has the time nor
desire to pull out the water hose and bucket. Traditional car washes
still hold a monopoly but there is an increasing need for mobile
carwash businesses. Office buildings, apartment and condo complexes
and small companies with fleets of delivery vehicles are a good place
to start promoting this type of business.
Mobile Catering
Love to cook? Even better, love to cook for others? In today's time
crunched society working families need a good home cooked meal
without the hassle. A mobile catering service can be just the answer.
Start by giving out sample meals. Create simple menus and go from
there. You can target specific neighborhoods and even pass out
samples and menus at the local parks while the soccer moms and
dads are cheering on the kids.
Mobile Hair Salon
Ever been sitting under a dryer, magazine in one hand, bottled water
in the other, with a frown on your face? Let's be honest, most women
like getting their hair styled by a professional but do not necessarily
enjoy the time spent in salons. Th mobile hair salon is a growing
industry as women and men are willing to pay extra for convenience.
Notary Public
A notary public has several options for working. A traveling notary
service can make a very good income. Notaries are needed for all
sorts of reasons. They officially witness signatures on legal
documents, administer oaths and statutory declarations, collect sworn
statements and authenticate documents. Everyone, at some point in
time, needs a notary so the possibilities for clients are endless.
Personal Services - Shopping & Errands
Sometimes there's just not enough hours in the day to take care of
home and work. Most people have to perform their duties on the job
and often times the duties at home fall by the wayside. Errands,
shopping, bill paying need to be accomplished. A person who enjoys
keeping others organized may be ripe for the personal services
business. No longer are executives the only people who require
personal services, middle and working class families can also use a
personal service business. Start by advertising your services to
corporations.
Real Estate Appraiser
Real Estate Appraisers estimate the value of real property which
includes land, buildings and natural resources. The work is interesting
yet tedious. Appraisers prepare a written description properties and
estimate the value. They may also examine income records, verify
legal descriptions of property, draw diagrams and note conditions and
special features of buildings. Appraisers generally work alone and find
opportunities with state and local government, banks, credit unions,
utility, insurance and mortgage companies.
Restaurant Delivery
Restaurant delivery service is a great up and coming business. Many
smaller restaurants do not have the man power to offer deliveries.
That's where you come in. You can contract with several restaurants
and get the benefits of a set fee from your clients along with tips for
their customers!
Secretarial Service - Typing,Transcription & Proofreading
Virtual secretaries can offer a myriad of services and target various
professional fields. If you are a multi-tasker with accurate, fast typing
skills you may be interested in offering your services to the Business,
Legal and Medical fields. There are also opportunities in bookkeeping,
typing manuscripts, resumes, cover letters, request for proposals,
business plans and the list goes on.
Tutoring
Math, reading, grammar, history, science...what's your speciality? If
you find teaching a rewarding experience tutoring could be the key to
your successful home-based business. With the competition heating
up to get a spot in the top colleges and universities, parents are
looking for ways to give their children an edge. Advertising is fairly
inexpensive. Post flyers in your local schools, libraries, grocery stores
and even laundromats.
Weight Loss Coach
Unfortunately obesity is on the rise in the United States. Fortunately
many businesses have arisen from the obesity crisis. Just like personal
trainers weight loss coaches have carved a niche in the fitness
industry. A certified weight loss coach can work right from home with
weekly coaching sessions, nutrition advice and work-out plans all
through email. The rewards from this business are immeasurable as
you help others improve their health, lifestyle and self-confidence.
