What kinds of small businesses can be started with a 50k investment?

Answer 1

The best business to open (In my opinion will be a Day Care)

A Day Care is a business in which you really help people, and you can get a very good investment for the future.
What you need to do with your $50K, is looking for a nice house, and buy the things that the kids need, (toys, playgrounds, etc) After that hire employees, and be sure that they are very responsible with the children; and after that you will be able to go ahead; you must satisfy the parents and the kids also... That will be a very good way to start.

Also be sure that you have all the info to open it, be sure and ask your local/state agency about the requirements to open a business.
In your earnings you can get $150 weekly per each child, so if you imagine a 40 kids; it will be $6000 weekly, and per month $24,000... so think about it...

Good luck

Answer 2

I think the most important thing to keep in mind is YOU.

Think of all your interests & ask yourself if any of those could be expanded into a business. Just keep in mind...what's your expertise? What are your interests? What could you imagine yourself doing?

By researching the prospect of starting your own business -- what it entails, what you need to know, helpful hints, etc -- you'll feel better prepared to take that plunge.

I found some book titles that are relevant to your specific question:

* 101 Internet Businesses You Can Start from Home by Susan Sweeney

* I Don't Know What I Want, But I Know It's Not This: A Step-by-Step Guide to Finding Gratifying Work by Julie Jansen
* The Best Internet Businesses You Can Start by Marian Betancourt

I also posted some article links in the source box.

Hope that helps! I wish you much success & happiness in all your ventures!

Answer 5

Matt,

Reverse your thinking. Think of what business you can start that will make a lot of money, a business that will have a lot of customers that are easy to find and eager to buy your product/service and from whom you can make a lot of money per transaction. Then worry about finding the money to start the business.

If it is a worthwhile business, the money will find you (almost).

Good Luck

i don't think there are easy money for any business. perhaps you can setup a website and to earn money through google adsense, this don't need any lisense.

besides, here is a specialized webpage containing 10 methods making money online and doing small business online.

start by asking what u r interested in and what u want to do long term.

if ur interested in what ur doing, it adds to the inspiration every day.

50k is a moderate amount to start something.. so better choose what u really enjoy and is interested in doing...
