Undertaking today is not a privilege reserved for those people who have large sums of money, as there are more and more business opportunities that require low initial capital. Facts such as digitization or the ease of accessing a wide variety of raw materials have contributed to more and more people having the possibility of making that dream venture a reality.
Although it is already possible to request financing to kick off a project, the reality is that, with your savings (even if they are not many) or even with the same tools you have at home, you can start operating your business and over time time, make it grow as much as possible.

So that you can be inspired, we share some examples to start with little money. With them you can start in the entrepreneurial world and become your own boss and source of employment for others. Get to work!
Consultancy
If you already have knowledge and a track record that supports you, you can start your own consultancy on topics such as content generation, digital strategies, public relations, design, web development and more… The same tools you have at home like a computer are the only thing What would you need at the beginning?
Decor
A popular service today is the decoration of spaces to commemorate a special occasion. From children’s parties, birthdays, anniversaries, gender reveal or weddings, people seek to personalize their celebration. You can invest in balloons, series of LED lights, metal curtains and, together with your creativity, start your own business.
Pets
With a culture where the life of animals is increasingly respected, the walk is almost a basic for all owners of a ‘loin’. If you like it and you have free time, start in the pet market. You can offer your services as a dog walker, you will only need bags or a device to collect feces, from there you can periodically invest in leashes, water dishes and more accessories that will facilitate your work.
Meal
Even if you don’t have a local, you can exploit your culinary skills and work in scheme dark kitchen where you only operate with collection or home delivery. Take advantage of the same utensils you have at home to bake cakes or prepare long meals. At the beginning you can only invest in ingredients and, if everything goes well, start to better equip your kitchen or, why not, think about a place?
Care or accompaniment
Having knowledge in nursing or pedagogy could open doors for you to undertake caring for people in need, from children to the elderly. Your skills plus some tools such as educational toys in the case of children or instruments such as a blood pressure monitor for the elderly could be useful for your venture.

People look for objects that are unique, remind them of something valuable and with which they can feel identified, keeping this in mind, you can give your customers that experience through stories based on something or someone special, illustrations inspired by some being dear and more Your initial costs would be minimal.
There are no more excuses! It is time for you to take advantage of your knowledge, tools that you already have or your savings to start a business. From passion and effort they can surely become your livelihood, one that gives you the fulfillment you are looking for.
