How to Start Your Own Business - What to Choose?

You need money and you need it now...I know how you feel! The rent's due, and so are the credit cards-which you've been living off of- the utility payment, car payment and on and on. And either you're not making enough at the job you have or you've lost your job and there are few prospects out there for you. You're beginning to panic.

You think, maybe I should start my own business, be my own boss and be in control of my destiny. That's the attitude! So, you think of businesses you'd like to do. But are they realistic for you to easily start and make money?

Here are a few I found people searching about and why the business won't, probably work for you:

Car Wash--the permits alone will break the bank, plus the water bill!

Baking Business-again, this type of business requires permits and inspections, whether you go retail or wholesale

Credit Repair-tons of competition and do you really know the business? Plus there is a liability to you for being sued if you give the wrong advise

Newspaper Business-I chuckled at this one (sorry!) Large newspapers are downsizing and going out of business weekly!

Oh, the list goes on for people looking at how to start your own business with unrealistic ideas.

BUT, that doesn't mean you can't find a business that is low cost to start, fast to get customers and can grow continually. One of the best is a cleaning business, either residential cleaning or office cleaning-sometimes called commercial cleaning.

There isn't really much start up required: some good, solid durable cleaning equipment is a must. Also, advertising is relatively inexpensive. Flyers and word of mouth seemed to be my best marketing tool. Offer a discount or free clean for new customers or as a referral bonus for your clients who refer new business. But the most important piece of advice I can give you is to get bonded/insured. It doesn't cost that much and it gives clients piece of mind. It also protects you. I actually had one kookie client who accused me of stealing from her. Although she didn't pursue it legally, I would suggest protecting yourself (it also protects you if something gets broken).

One of the fastest ways to start this business and get ALL the needed paperwork, guidance and "how to's" is to visit the Office Cleaning Business StartUp Kit site, where Sam tells you exactly how to get going fast and start bringing in the money within weeks! And for only a few hours of work a day!

Sam has been in the cleaning business for over 15 years and knows his stuff! He also knows and will tell you about residential cleaning, if you prefer to start your own business in that field.

Stop feeling lost and hopeless and TAKE ACTION! You must be in control of your destiny! Yes, it will take some work, but you will reap the rewards with consistent checks being deposited into your bank account. Take a look at the Office Cleaning Business StartUp Kit TODAY!!!
