Idea #43: Online Shopping

Online shopping is slowly becoming more and more popular and as it continues to grow, more online shops are started every day. Here's the problem for an everyday-customer: they have to sign up for all of the different web-accounts and make numerous different orders to each of them. One chance for you to make a succesive business in this field is to start a web-store where people can buy products from all other online shops via your site. It's basically like having a retail shop online but it kind of works in the opposite direction; first the customer chooses the product they want and then you go ahead and find the best price online and make the order for them. This makes the shopping experience online much easier and less stressful for the customer.

Idea #42: Mobile Car Repair

More people, more cars. That's how simple it is and we'll just have to live with it. Also, as people are tight on money during the recession, they tend to buy second-hand cars and in general that usually means they're older and more worn out than new ones. This leads to cars breaking down and continuing problems with their endurance. Taking advantage of this business opportunity can be very awarding but there are already lots of car repair shops/garages in business. You need to come up with something completely new and starting a mobile car repair could be just that. It can be very hard to fix cars outside of your garage with a limited availability of tools and machines but you have to figure it out in a way that makes it possible and effective. It's all about making it easier for the customer so going to them instead of them coming to you is a great idea to follow and develope.

Idea #40: Music Studio

As a person with a love for music, having my own studio has always been a dream of mine. I can't really explane it in any way but I've heard the same from many others who's lives are somehow connected to music and I think recording and working with music is something many musicians would like to do aside from possibly playing music. In addition to filling a long-time dream you can also make a recording studio bring in money. Recording time is very expensive and there are lots of upcoming bands looking for it. This means that in a large city or community it would not be hard to keep your studio in use most of the time. If you can offer professional help with the studio equipment, you can bring the prices even higher.

You can start off by producing something as basic as birdhouses and make them a bit different from the regular ones. From there you can move in to other animals as well and if you're good at visual skills you can even start designing entire rooms for animals.

So it's a niche topic but what would you actually do with it? Well, the first thing that comes to mind is to teach it to other people. Before you do this, you'll have to complete a similar course so that you yourself master the art of speed reading. It's hard to teach people something you don't know anything about, so this is possibly the most important step to take before starting your business.

Especially if you live in a large city/community with lots of wealthy families, you have a very good possibility to find many customers and people in need of help with their school work.

Your fees are something you'll have to work on and think about quite deeply because if they're too high, you'll never find enough customers, and having too low fees is just stupid in all ways... When you're starting your business, a good fee would possibly be 20-25$ per hour. If you look at statistics and average fees for tutors, this amount is more to the lower end of the scale so as you get larger and gain more customers you'll have more possiblities to modify the business into your desired form.
