Businesses You Can Start for Little or No Money
Many people want to start businesses but think they don’t have enough money. However, there are many businesses, including some global businesses, that have been started by dedicated entrepreneurs who had very little start-up capital. With careful planning, market research, and a well thought out business plan, you can start a business with little or no money. The trick is to specialize in a service or product that you're good at and love. Then start growing one order at a time!
