This article will be devoted to giving answers to these questions in detail!😀

⭐️ Checked!
In Russia (and the CIS), starting a business is much easier and easier than for residents of developed countries in Europe, the USA ...

Note that according to statistics, about 70% successful entrepreneurs started their own business from scratch! I myself confirm this. It is not always necessary to have an initial capital (especially a large one)!

Main availability desires and everything else will follow!

Imagine, with the help of your business, you can work for yourself, and not “for your uncle”, not need money and spend more time not on work, but on your family and hobbies! You will have freedom!

I'm not talking about the fact that doing your own thing is very interesting and, in addition, it will allow you to fulfill yourself!

By the way, we also recommend reading the article in which we have collected the most relevant ideas in the field of production: 👈. From it you will learn about many popular and profitable niches in production, including those in which competition is still low (now is the time to take them)!

So, from this article you will also learn:

  • What business idea to choose for a small town?
  • How can you start your own business from scratch?
  • What mistakes do new entrepreneurs often make and how to avoid them?

Let's not delay - let's go!👇

1. Why is it important to start a business with minimal investment?

Before we move on to business ideas I will explain a couple of very important aspects starting any business. Believe me, these simple and key knowledge will save you a lot of money and time (tested on yourself)!🙂

First what you need to understand - any business starts with small! At the beginning, all you need is to find out if the business idea will be in demand in your city, i.e. Will it pay off and make money!

Therefore, at the beginning no need to invest all your money (especially if you don’t have a lot of them) into a business idea – especially if you are still a “newbie” in business. In the early stages, you should have only the most necessary what it takes to get your business up and running!

For example, many start their business right at home, in a garage, in a country house, on the Internet ... - there is nothing unusual about this!

⭐️ The bottom line is that the most great risks of failure arise precisely at the stage of opening your business, so first try to minimize your investment as much as possible. Because until you try, you won’t know whether this business idea will be profitable.

If you have very little or practically no money, then choose business ideas that require only the investment of your time (there are such - usually it is the service sector)! Some of these business ideas from scratch will be described in this article!

Now let's finally move on to business ideas that are usually great for a small town! :)

2. Business ideas with minimal investment in a small town: TOP 30 proven ideas

There are really a lot of business ideas - you can’t count them in one article, but we tried to select the most relevant ones for you and with minimal investment!

Of course, very detailed description each of the ideas is not enough for one article (and you probably won’t be interested in reading everything 😀), so we will provide the main and most valuable information.

Thus, the main thing in this business:

  • to find appropriate place(shop from 8 to 40 sq. meters );
  • negotiate with window manufacturers on deliveries;
  • find a measurer and window fitters.

Moreover, measurers and installers often have a piece-rate salary - from completed orders!

Your main expenses will fall on the rent and equipment of the premises.

Although the competition in this niche is usually above average, nevertheless, it is more than possible to open a successful business!

💡Example successful business!
In our city (about 100 thousand people), a small office (only about 10-15 sq. m.) was very successfully opened for the sale of window installation, as well as roller shutters, stretch ceilings ...

But most importantly, it was opened right next to big store building materials- that is, where there is a direct target audience! Accordingly, some of the clients who came for building materials order windows from them (by the way, I am no exception, I was also their client😀).

Yes, and if you do not have your own suitable window delivery vehicle, then you can use the services of a freight forwarder.

Business idea number 7: Stock and second-hand clothing stores

Many people have a desire to buy quality clothes, but most can not afford it.

Therefore, there are more and more stores that sell fashion and branded clothes mainly from Europe at discounted prices (stock and second-hand stores).

Stock stores offer discounted collections from past seasons, and second-hand stores offer clothes that look new (without visible wear), but which have already been used.

This is a great idea for a small town, as the competition in this area is usually very low.

☝️Note!
To open this business, a room with an area of ​​​​ from 30 to 100 sq. meters. At the same time, it is important that the store is located in a passable place.

You also need to carefully consider the choice of clothing suppliers in order to form a suitable assortment. Suppliers, by the way, sell clothes in bags (usually from 20 kg.) At a price from 100 to 500 rubles/kg .

This is a very profitable business that does not require large investments and quickly pays off!

Business Idea #8: Mini Bakery

Another great business idea is to open your own mini-bakery.

Nowadays, bakeries are very popular among the population and all because there you can always buy always fresh bakery products for every taste.

Even in small towns, a mini-bakery can bring in a good income, since the competition here is usually low.

☝️ If you choose a suitable room (so as not to invest a lot of money in its reconstruction, and even more so construction from scratch), then you can invest within 200-300 tr.

Average cost per car wash 250-600 r.(depending on the city), the cost is about 100-250 rubles. Total income on average 150-300 r. from one sink .

The income of a car wash directly depends on the location, so you need to take this seriously and analyze the main busy roads near hypermarkets, residential areas and choose a place with the highest car flow and optimal rent.

Also Additional services will increase the profitability of a car wash:

  • car polish,
  • salon cleaning.

Payback 2-3 months - depends on the flow of customers, give discounts to regular customers.

Business Idea #12: Hair Salon

Hairdressing salons are very popular and in demand among the population. In addition, large investments are not required to organize such a business.

Despite the fact that competition in this area is usually great, nevertheless, there are still “white spots” on the city map where you can profitably open a hairdresser.

Example!
In our city, a network of hairdressing salons was opened 2-3 years ago, which began to position themselves as budget-friendly (that is, aimed exclusively at an audience that is trying to save on everything). It was this positioning that became their key to success!

It's about why in business important to be different !

It is better to place a hairdressing salon in a residential complex or mall, in general, there is patency and at the same time the rent is not much overpriced.

By the way, it is often people who have completed courses / training as a hairdresser who open hairdressing salons. In this case, at first you don’t even need to look for employees.

Mini-hairdressing salon for 2 places can be opened only from 150 thousand rubles. Investments mainly involve:

  • Costs of renting premises;
  • Purchase of the necessary equipment (hairdressing tools);
  • Purchasing furniture (armchairs, mirrors, tables…);
  • Decorating a barbershop.

The optimal markup 200-250 percent , the main expenses will go to rent and salaries of employees.

Payback from 3 to 4 months in case of successful organization of the business.

Business Idea #13: Children's Playground

Many parents often have no one to leave their child under supervision. A children's playground is a great and inexpensive solution to this problem.

In addition, it is much easier (and cheaper) to open a children's playground than to organize a private kindergarten.

❗️ On average, to open your own mini-rope park, you will need from 200 thousand rubles. The costs will mainly be required for the purchase of rope ladders, bungee ropes and for rent.

Average ticket price from 100 to 300 rubles .

Rope parks can be both outdoors and indoors. Rope parks on the street, that is, in nature, are in great demand.

The costs of opening an indoor rope city are usually higher.

— Direction 6 — Business on the Internet

💡 The Internet is good because it erases the boundaries and therefore it does not matter in which city / village you live! In addition, the Internet is a great place to start a business from scratch!

Business idea No. 26: Business on the Avito site

Avito is currently the largest platform free ads in Russia, which is visited daily by millions of people. Almost everything is bought and sold here!

It often even happens that Avito is the most important source of sales for business, and in most cases it is free. That is, the biggest advantage of Avito is that here you can build a business without any investment at all.

There are 3 main areas of how you can make money on Avito:

  • sell goods wholesale and retail (both new and used);
  • provide services (what you know how to do);
  • engage in mediation (find clients for business and take your remuneration for this).

⭐️ Personal example!
By the way, I started with exactly 2 options: I was looking for clients, I worked for myself on average 2-3 hours a day (about 10 days a month) and earned about 15-30 thousand rubles per month and I still have a lot of free time!

As for me, this is a great alternative to hired work.

But not only for private traders, but also for business, Avito is a powerful source of attracting customers. Many simply hire people who submit dozens or even hundreds of free ads a day (the more ads, the more calls, the more sales).

Here is an example of how even students managed to get out of debt and earn 300 thousand only with the help of Avito:

As for mediation, this is also a fairly profitable line of business. All you need to do is advertise (find clients) and negotiate partnerships with those who already own a particular business.

Business idea No. 27: One-pagers (dropshipping)

Another very popular business idea on the Internet today is the sale of goods through dropshipping through a special website - a one-pager (landing page).

In this case, you will also not need a large investment, since you do not need to have goods in stock - all goods will be sent directly from the supplier to your customer. In this case, you will receive profit from the margin on the goods.

To do this, you will need to find the best-selling products (bestsellers, usually sold at 990-2990 rubles), select several of them, create one-page pages for them and set up advertising (in social networks, teaser networks, contextual advertising, YAN ...).

Some, instead of one-pagers, open groups on Vkontakte and other social networks and sell goods through them.

However, in this case, it is very important to be able to work effectively with advertising (or find such a specialist), because. it is the only source of sales.

Business idea No. 28: Information site

Another common type of business without investments on the Internet is the creation and promotion of information sites on a specific topic.

The topic can be almost anything - besides, if you already like some direction and you are already well versed in it, then it is best to choose this topic (for example, cooking, tourism, construction, finance, gardening ...).

❗️ The bottom line is that you create a site (you can create it yourself within 1-2 days), register a domain name for the site (usually it costs from 99 r.) and place it on the hosting ( ≈150 r/month). This is all, however, and costs (if you do everything else yourself)!

Next, you write articles on popular topics for people, thus helping people understand certain issues. For those who do not want to write articles themselves, you can hire copywriters on freelance exchanges who will write articles for you for a fee.

As soon as the first users appear, it will be possible to connect advertising (for example, from Yandex Direct or Google Adsense) and receive income.

Over time, website traffic will grow, and your income will grow along with it. Thus, doing what you love and sharing useful information with readers, you can earn money.

In addition, you can buy a ready-made site that already generates income (for example, on the Tender site - telderi.ru). Here you can also sell your sites!

Business Idea #29: Online Store

Today, literally everything is sold via the Internet: from a pen to large-sized equipment.

Moreover, there is a clear trend that more people prefer to buy goods online.

An online store, unlike the same one-pagers, is aimed at selling not 1-2 products, but a whole group of products.

⚡️ Opening your own online store is much cheaper and easier than general store in the town. At first, it is not even necessary to have goods in stock and your own warehouse (you can work on dropshipping).

And, in my opinion, it’s even stupid to spend a lot of money on the purchase of goods and a warehouse if you don’t have a built-in sales flow yet.

In general, 2 things are important here: SEO website promotion in search engines and competent advertising setting. If you are not familiar with them, then it is better to find a trusted specialist.

By the way, the well-known Yandex Market platform can also become an excellent source of sales.

Business Idea #30: Infobusiness

Infobusiness is the sale of valuable information via the Internet, that is, training for money.

By the way, the info business is one of the most profitable businesses in the world that you can start from scratch.

☝️ Information businessmen can earn hundreds and millions of rubles by simply sharing useful information with people.

4. The most common mistakes of novice entrepreneurs - TOP-7

Many aspiring entrepreneurs do not fully understand how a business works and, accordingly, often make mistakes when opening it.

Therefore, I decided to write a small section in which I highlighted the most common mistakes novice businessmen make. I really hope that this information will be valuable to you:

Mistake #1:

Fear of competition. Do not be afraid of competition - the presence of competitors is good! Firstly, it means that the goods/services in this niche are in good demand. Secondly, it is possible to evaluate competitors (their weak and strengths) and gain valuable experience. Thirdly, competition forces you to develop your business!

Mistake #2:

Take credits and loans. If you are starting a business for the first time in your life, then you definitely should not take various loans and loans. Do you still have not enough experience! It is a completely different matter if you have been in business for more than one year and understand how it works from the inside.

Mistake #3:

Wrong business priorities. Let me remind you once again that business is not your personal office and not your status. CEO”, and this is primarily a sale! Everything else is an add-on. This is especially important to understand when you are just building your business!

Mistake #4:

Sell ​​what no one has heard of. Many beginners in business think that you can make good money if you sell some new product which is not yet on the market. This is partly true, but many ignore the fact that 8 out of 10 new products fail !

If you have experience and money, then please! But if you are just starting your first business, and there is not much money to test different niches and suffer losses at first, then this is not for you!

Mistake #5:

Act like everyone else (do not differ). It must be understood that consumers primarily seek those entrepreneurs who offer them the “maximum benefit”.

But consumers are also different - each of them has their own interests: some want cheaper, others want better quality, the third generally cares about speed (manufacturing, delivery ...), etc.

Therefore, your task is to understand what exactly your “target audience” wants the most and give them this maximum value.

Try to imagine "portrait" your client and think about how you can improve your product/service to stand out from your competitors!

💡 For example, even if you sell the same thing as your competitors, you can offer a better service (relation to the client), expand product range, do fast/free shipping

Mistake #6:

Sell ​​low-quality services/goods. Attempts to quickly cash in on the sale of low-quality goods and services will not lead you to anything good! Treat others as yourself and you will easily be able to build a successful business.

Mistake #7:

Don't know how to delegate. Being a jack of all trades and understanding all the nuances of your business is good, but for the time being. Business should not become for you a place where you spend around the clock!

At first, while the business is not strong and is at the stage of development, it is perhaps better for everyone to do it on their own.

But when it already brings a steady income, try to find the right people whom you can trust and delegate some of your responsibilities!

☝️ Important!
Business, like everything else, should be fun and take up only part of your time, not your whole life!

And finally: even if you make certain mistakes, take them as an incredibly valuable experience, learn from them! As a rule, only those who do nothing do not make mistakes!😀

5. Conclusion

I hope now you are convinced that it is very possible to open your own business with minimal investment or from scratch!

Once again, the guaranteed way to succeed in business is indeed love business, which you are engaged in, then no competitors are afraid! In addition, then you will never “work” again, but will only do what you like!

At the end of the article, I suggest you watch a short video:

I wish you good luck and success in opening your future business!👍

Friends, leave your opinion in the comments below! I will also be very grateful if you rate this article and share it with your friends on social networks!😀👇

There is a widespread opinion that big money is earned in megacities, while provincial businessmen, in small town, account for much more modest incomes. This is partly true, because in megacities there is a large population, and therefore, higher demand for certain goods and services. The purchasing power of the population is also higher here. However, this does not mean that the very idea of ​​opening a business in a small town is something meaningless.

Moreover, according to all economic forecasts, it is for small business future, therefore, in a small provincial town there is every reason to count on success.

What is typical for business in a small town, what are its features?

Minimum competition and cheap start

The 2 main advantages of any business idea for a small town are a minimum of competition and small investments with which you can start a business in a small town.

On the other hand, the main disadvantage should be taken into account - this is the low purchasing power of most of the population. People in the regions do not have much money, and first of all, they close their basic needs - food, housing, cheap entertainment, clothes, and only then cafes and restaurants.

An important provincial factor is the mentality

Well, and finally, another important provincial factor is the mentality. In a small town, where half of the inhabitants know each other, reputation sometimes plays a much more important role than in a large regional center. But it all depends on the city.

The main direction is trade

Be that as it may, 80% of business ideas in small towns are “tied” to trade, and there is a logical explanation for this. If you decide to “enter the same river”, it may make sense to acquire an already operating business. In any case, finding an unfilled niche with good demand will not be easy at all. A word of advice: be careful with a specific product. It can both make a splash and, due to weak purchasing power and conservative views of a certain part of the population, go unnoticed.

A new line of business in small towns in 2019 is the property of bankrupts and debtors of bailiffs

Behind recent times the number of bankruptcies has increased many times, but few people know that the property of debtors is sold through public auction where you can often buy it for a penny.

It is especially interesting to buy property in small towns, as few people there know about offers and know how to work with auctions. For more details see in the free course of Oleg Selifanov

Leasing business - leasing residential and commercial real estate

Main plus rental of residential property- people always need housing, especially when you consider what to start rental business even with an amount of 100-200 rubles, this idea works well in the regions.

To better understand how to make money on real estate and not make irreparable mistakes, go through free real estate courses. They will help you decide in which direction you want to work and which one is right for you.

  • How to get 35-70% per annum on real estate
  • Business idea - Profitable house (video + business plan)

4 main advantages of business ideas with real estate in small towns

  1. rental business requires minimal participation,
  2. it is excellently credited and you can start even with a small personal capital - 100-200 thousand rubles
  3. scales perfectly
  4. generates rental income every month
  5. a small number of employees are sufficient, sometimes even coming and piecework with the simplest qualifications.

Starting a service business in small towns

The situation looks somewhat different. Here it is very important to correctly draw a line between essential services and benefits that do not belong to them. Naturally, in a small village, the first type will be in demand, and not the second.

For example, a profitable business is more likely to become barbershop with affordable prices and a constant flow of customers, and not a SPA-salon with a wide range of expensive cosmetic procedures. Along with this, it is not enough to be like everyone else, that is, in our example, like other hairdressers.

In order for a potential client to give preference to your salon in the future, offer him a zest, albeit a small one. It can simply be a quality service, when a person was not just cut, but also met in a clean room, was friendly with him, offered to wait in a comfortable chair for his turn.

Repair service

Another niche that promises success in a small town is provision of repair services. There is a simple explanation for this. The level of income in the province, as a rule, is average or below average, so no one is in a hurry to throw broken household appliances, shoes or clothes in the trash.

In this regard, the opening of a repair shop with a convenient location and work schedule can potentially count on financial success. In general, business ideas for the city are simple great amount just enough to search.

Hello dear readers! Today I want to talk about a business with minimal investment or micro business. And also give some business ideas. Very often I am asked a question about how you can start a business with minimal investment (usually from zero to 50,000 rubles).

I’ll say right away that this is possible, but you need to find your own idea and try small. Today I will try to give an answer to this question, and I really hope that you will draw your own conclusions.

Microbusiness - what is it and why you need to start small

When you were born, you did not immediately say the first word, did not immediately take the first step, then why do you think that in business you should immediately open a bank, a car dealership or a large supermarket? Perhaps you have a desire to do something big, but try to tune your brain to what is currently within your power and within the power of your wallet. And when the brain starts to work on goals closer to reality, then ideas will fall to you like a river.

After all, as a rule, they are all in front of the nose. And already when you started small and took on some very small business, then it can be expanded to medium and large scales.

And this very small business is micro business! You can be a micro business doing freelancing, making something at home, reselling some goods, providing services. You will be very small at first, but then time will pass and growth will accelerate.

Did you know that the world's most famous eatery "Subway" (Subvey), used to be just one small outlet, and now has tens of thousands of eateries around the world? And if the founders hadn't opened this one diner, if they hadn't started small, this multi-million dollar company wouldn't exist!

In general, in America, one in ten is engaged in microbusiness, produces something in a garage, sells something, etc., while in Russia this is just beginning to emerge. You have every chance!

Most of you want to do your own thing, to leave the job you hate, to start living better, to be more free, to do big business etc. So for these purposes, microbusiness is quite enough.

Many people are engaged in business and earn only a little more than the average salary, but they are satisfied that they are doing an interesting job and are independent in their activities.

In microbusiness, interest is important, and better love! Because microbusiness is built on your passion for action. If you like your business, then you can do it even for small incomes. The most important thing for you now is to understand that you can start small and think about what interests you. And only then think about how you can get money out of your interest. You will say that I am pushing you with banality and you will be right, but if you learn this and you will succeed!

How to start a business with minimal investment

Now let's move on to the fact that you can open a business with minimal investment, and moreover, you need to! You don't need a lot of money to start a micro business. You only need 4 things to get started:

  1. Think about what you like and what you could really do (make an approximate list right now, then add it);
  2. Consider how you can capitalize on your interest. Just think about whether your business can be useful to someone.
  3. See if you have enough money for it. If not enough, then return to point number 1 and go again.

And the fourth is the most difficult! And even if it doesn’t work out, you still did what you like, you didn’t lose anything. And if they invested money, then very little!

Important! You, when you want to eat and you have only 50 rubles in your pocket (I had this, I don’t know about you), you buy what you have enough money for and satisfy the body’s need for food. But, you must admit that if you had 1000 r, then you would buy something tastier. The same goes for starting your micro business. If you have little money, then try to extract the maximum profit from them. You must satisfy your need - start! If you manage to do something out of little money, then later you will move mountains out of big money. Burn out? Get great experience for little money!

Live examples of business with little investment

I'll start with myself, and then move on to cool comrades;)

  • I opened my first site (blog site) with 1000 rubles in my pocket. Behind him immediately the second for 500 rubles. Total 1500 r. After 3 months, both sites in total began to bring in a month 3,000 rubles, then 5,000 rubles, then 10, and so on up to 15,000 rubles. After a year and a half, I sold one of them for a tidy sum, and the second remained with my partner.
  • I opened a website development studio without investments at all. She also brought me a little 10,000-30,000 rubles a month. But this is because I had to pay designers and layout designers.
  • The service for selling tweets, likes and everything else was opened for 7000 rubles, paid off in 2 days. He brought 40,000 rubles. per month and was sold.
  • Your blog, which you are now reading, was started with 500 rubles, and now it also generates income.
  • We opened an online bag store with 80,000 - 100,000 rubles, and paid back the money invested in 2 months, from the moment the goods arrived. From the 3rd month he was already carrying clean money and continues to this day.
  • Now another interesting project is being prepared, although there are more investments, but still not millions.

Well, everything about myself. What do you want? Thought I was in a million dollar business. Not! I am a micro businessman! Assets, of course, are not worth a single million, but this is already a matter of time, experience, desire and interest! I am not boasting, and even more so there is nothing to brag about, I just want to show by my own example that you can start small!

Now let's move on to others:

  • The same "SubWay" that I mentioned above was opened for $1000 of initial investment. It is now a multi-million dollar business with tens of thousands of eateries around the world.
  • My friend created several publics in VK for a long time, spending only 2000 rubles on advertising. and soon one of them gained popularity up to a million subscribers, then more, and so on. Income over 100,000 rubles. clean per month.
  • My parents started selling cereals at the street market when I was 5-7 years old, investing some money in the product. Every year there was more money in circulation, outlets more, the assortment expanded and everything went only to increase. Now, of course, they have a staff, they tried other types of business, in general, they developed as best they could and continue to develop to this day.
  • The founder of the JivoSite service (an online consultant for websites) Timur Valishev invested 150,000 rubles in it, and now his service has thousands of paying customers.
  • The same situation is with almost all the founders of publics and sites. Little was invested in all of them, but now it brings a lot.

One conclusion can be drawn. Starting a business with minimal investment is more than realistic, you just need to want, think and do!

And here, by the way, is a video interview with Timur Valishev (JivoSite) and Sergey Baryshnikov (Bigpicture website). I advise you to look:

25 Business ideas 2019 with minimal investment

Below I will give some business ideas with a minimum investment of up to 50,000 rubles that can work in both a small and a big city. Also, some ideas can be implemented without investment at all. These ideas are universal, they will suit both women and men. And inside them you can turn around to make your own unique product or service.

Remember that almost every business needs, but at first you can do without it to test the idea. After the test, this procedure is required.

And for organizing a business, an article about that will help you - a step-by-step plan from scratch!

Business Idea No. 1. Selling goods from one-page sites

This business is very relevant now and brought good money in 2018 and will bring in 2019 (and even longer). And it's realistic to start with minimal investment.

The bottom line is to sell goods on the Internet from one-page sites (landing page).

For this:

  1. a trendy product is selected from suppliers (in China or Russia), for which there is now a good demand;
  2. one or more one-page sites are created;
  3. advertising is launched;
  4. and there are sales.

My colleague Roman Kolesnikov successfully makes money on this. We even did an article with him on. Read it and understand the whole essence of this business idea with minimal investment.

Business idea number 2. Business selling goods from China

This profitable business I also tried it on myself and it brings good profit. It's no secret that now you can buy goods from China at very low prices and sell from us in Russia. This is now used by many and the business is gaining momentum.

The business idea is that you buy goods from China cheaply, and in Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan, etc. sell more. On goods from China, you can mark up from 50 to 300% on average, which indicates a good profit.

I have a section on my site about . In it, I share my experience and business ideas with minimal investment in the sale of goods from China. There you will also find many instructions on how to order products, how to sell them, etc.

Business Idea #3: Dropshipping

This type of business can be started even without investments! It consists in the fact that you sell goods that you do not have in stock. Yes exactly.

Dropshipping is a direct delivery from a supplier to a customer. You act as an intermediary, collecting orders from customers and transferring them to the supplier.

Let's talk about what is relevant, from a business point of view in 2018, and consider the TOP 9 ideas.

Idea number 1: Cafe (mini-pizzeria)

Organization Catering It is always profitable and cost-effective business. But, of course, there are also difficulties here. But, as you know, the more difficulties, the higher the profit. Investments in the cafe will be decent, plus you will need to resolve all issues regarding staff, sanitation, freshness of food and other nuances.

We suggest you open a small pizzeria where you can have a quick bite to eat during a break, on your way to work or while waiting for transport. For this, a small tent is best suited, where you can place a couple of tables, chairs and organize a small kitchenette.

For the full functioning of such an enterprise, you will need only a couple of employees who will work in shifts and perform all duties from cooking and paying customers to wet cleaning after the shift. You will be responsible for accounting, advertising and other organizational issues.

Why pizza? Well, because it is a high-calorie and beloved by all product. Your task is to make your dishes original, tasty and affordable for visitors. If this is the case, then there will be no people from customers. even if there are competitors nearby, then the main thing is that they do not offer the same goods that you will have. Therefore, it is not worth opening such a cafe next to another pizzeria.

A nice bonus for visitors is the delivery of fresh pizza for free in the area, ordering it by phone and promotions for large orders.

Idea #2: Beauty Salon

Opening a salon where you can carry out cosmetic procedures, get a haircut, styling, manicure and pedicure is also a popular option. This business is a profitable, interesting and profitable business for a woman. But nothing prevents a man from doing such a thing.

Here, first of all, you need to understand for yourself what services you will provide in your salon, and from this already draw conclusions about the initial investment, monthly expenses, personnel and other issues.

A wonderful option with a small budget would be in a one-room room, where there will be a couple of hairdressers and a manicure table. Low prices for services that can be performed by universal masters, with low investments, will bring a fairly decent income, allowing you to expand in the future and begin to provide a wider range of services to clients.

The most important thing is the quality of work, the better your employees work, the more satisfied customers there will be, and then many will know about you by word of mouth and the whole area will go to you, especially if there are no competing salons nearby.

Idea #3: Shoe repair

Every successful businessman knows that the key to a good income is a sought-after business. Everyone wears shoes, almost everyone has a pair of shoes that is very valuable to him and he would not want to just throw it away if the zipper breaks, the heel is worn out or some other problem. In this case, a person goes to a shoe repairman.

But in winter, such services are especially important, because winter shoes are what they buy, mainly for more than one season and of good quality. And if suddenly a heel breaks in frost and snow or lightning breaks, then it will be necessary to urgently and quickly restore everything.

There are no special expenses for opening a shoe repair business. It will be enough just to rent a corner in a very passable place and place a sign nearby indicating how to find you if someone needs it. Plus, you need to purchase the necessary materials and a workbench. And then it remains only to wait for the influx of customers.

Such a business can be opened in conjunction with clothing repair, but then it will take a little more investments, but two masters will not be bored working in the same closet. As they say, a happy employee is a good employee.

Idea #4: Veterinary Clinic

Many people have pets today. Many cat and dog lovers even make money by selling purebred kittens and puppies. But, unfortunately, it happens that the animal can get sick or he needs any preventive procedures.

If you love animals, then for you it will be not only profitable, but also interesting business with minimal investment. If you have a veterinary education, it will, of course, be easier for you to cope with the organization and planning of work, but even without it, it is quite possible to devote yourself to this area by studying organizational issues and hiring competent specialists for work.

A small city is unlikely to have much competition in this area, and if the city, or at least some part of it, specializes in animal husbandry, farming and agriculture your business will be in high demand.

This is where you will need to decide whether you will provide animal health care yourself or hire a specialist. Next, you need to choose a suitable place for organizing a clinic, equip the premises, purchase consumables, furniture and medicines, and advertise. Clients will not keep themselves waiting long.

Idea #5: Appliance Repair

Household appliances are in the house of every person. Therefore, starting a business based on the repair of such equipment is in demand and profitable. Again, you can hire employees and set up a workshop or provide home visit services to a client.

With the necessary skills, you can engage in the provision of repair services on your own, advertising your business through the Internet and ads.

To start such a large initial investment will not be required, you will only need to purchase tools, the most popular types of spare parts and consumables, and you can wait for calls and work orders.

If there are enough customers, then it would make sense to rent a room for a workshop, where you can pick up equipment for complex repairs or where customers will bring it on their own.

Idea #6: Clothing Store

The business of inexpensive and high-quality clothing is probably one of the most sought-after areas for today. Organizing such a business in a small town is not difficult. Even if competitors settle near you, then all customers will drop in on you, because the range and prices may vary.

  • T-shirts;
  • home clothes;
  • Inexpensive outerwear;
  • Children's clothing;
  • Underwear.

The second and very convenient option is the organization of an online store. In this case, you can save on rent, but you will have to invest more in advertising, creating and promoting the site. Such a business does not impose special requirements on its owner. Buy wholesale and cheaper, and sell retail and more expensive. Everything is simple and clear.

Idea #7: Tutoring

For those people who understand any scientific field or have, best of all, a pedagogical education, tutoring will be a great option. For an hour of work, a tutor receives much more than when working with a whole class of students in an educational institution.

It doesn't matter to study a child in a big city or in a small one, but Unified exam is the same for everyone, and the qualifications of teachers may differ in small and large cities. That is why in small towns, responsible parents very often resort to the services of tutors for their children. In addition to individual lessons, you can also provide services such as:

  • Assistance with writing scientific papers, essays, term papers, diploma and other works;
  • Preparation for exams when entering a university or for final exams, as well as even for state educational standards;
  • Preparatory classes to prepare kids for school;
  • Learning to master any instrument or vocal if you have certain skills.

There are many opportunities in this area. Also, you can not independently teach children and students, but also organize an agency for the selection of repeaters, receiving a percentage of their orders.

Children are the flowers of life, but sometimes you want to leave them somewhere for a couple of hours, go to the movies or spend time in some other place. And there are a lot of people who want it. such a business is very profitable, even if your locality is small.

Such a room is in demand, most often in the field of entertainment. It would be very suitable to rent a room near a cinema, any other entertainment facility or in a shopping center and organize a children's room there.

For the functioning of the business, it will be necessary to furnish the room for the needs of children, hire a couple of animators, put a pool with balls, a TV with cartoons, drawing tables and a corner with toys there. It is also necessary to provide all the precautions for children's games so that the kids do not get hurt, and just in case, there must be a first aid kit.

With high traffic, you will always have customers, it is enough to make only a colorful sign and get to work.

Almost everyone drinks coffee these days. On the way to work, if there is a minute, a person will definitely buy a cup of delicious coffee. AT lunch break to maintain performance in the afternoon, too, many people want to drink espresso or latte.

Therefore, the organization of a small coffee house on wheels when placed in places where there are no competitors nearby and a high traffic of people is the best idea for modern entrepreneur with a small budget.

The entrepreneur will need to organize a van that can comfortably accommodate all the equipment for making a hot drink that everyone loves. You can install such a van permanently at one point with high traffic or, if necessary, transport it to several points.

Yours will need to be beautifully and attractively designed. An original and attractive name will also be a big plus for advertising. And most importantly, your coffee should be delicious. In addition, you can come up with coffee-based drinks according to your own recipes. For example, cold ones are for hot summer days.

First, you must give an objective assessment of the modern market. What new product or service would you like to see in your city? What do consumers need and want? What kind weak sides characterize your future competitors? And, of course, the main question: “What is the most profitable business in a small town?” Each locality may have its own, different answers, so it would not be entirely correct to advise something specific in this case. A sparsely populated city is good because all its inhabitants are more or less familiar with each other, so finding out what your neighbors and acquaintances want and are willing to pay for innovations is the easiest thing. You can do a little research: interview the townspeople about what is missing in the city and what they would like to see. Perhaps in this way they will give you an idea and open your eyes to how to choose profitable business for a small town.

  • The main disadvantage of such a business, of course, is a small cross. So, if, for example, we take a more passable place in a city with a population of about 20 thousand people, then it will still have less efficiency than an ordinary ordinary place in a large settlement, for example, with a population of 150 thousand people. Therefore, the most passing places of a small town should be considered.
  • The second - no less significant minus - the small salary of the townspeople. It is no secret that the inhabitants of the provinces receive less for their work than their counterparts in larger settlements. Therefore, we can draw a fairly simple, but logical conclusion: the lower the salary of people, the less likely it is that part of the money earned will go to the purchase of your goods and services.
  • Do not forget about the competition, without it nowhere! The city is small, the lucrative areas offering essential goods are already packed, people who want to have good income, enough. And yet, on top of that, large regional and federal chains are everywhere climbing with their goods and ruining the lives of local merchants.
  • The last disadvantage is the widespread shortage of qualified personnel. Of course, professionals are everywhere and always, but finding them can take a long time, and sometimes you even have to poach them, promising a higher salary.

...and pluses

  • To make the working staff a plus, you need to determine which business (the most profitable in a small town) does not need professional staff. In fact, there are a huge number of niches that require the usual work force. And usually cheap.
  • Finally, I would like to highlight a plus, which is quite difficult to get, but it is possible by providing the population with quality goods or services. This is the trust of citizens in your business. It is necessary to plan correctly and offer residents the optimal ratio of price to quality of goods and services provided. And laudatory popular reviews will not leave you without a good monthly income!

You can start a business in any city. But in order to succeed, you must consider the following features:

  • Properly choose a niche for your business in a small town. Opportunities and implementation of the idea in the metropolis are more real. And what is lucrative in a large community may not be as profitable in a small town.
