Home Based Business
Tired of the daily grind at the job? Are you frustrated by the lack of advancements.
Low Cost Home Based Business Ideas 2: Laundry and Alterations
I’m sure like most people, you are concerned about the latest economic news, but there are options available. In my continuation of business articles, this is the second installment of my series about ideas for a home based business that can be started with little or no money.
In the last article, we looked at starting a cleaning business. Today we’ll look at two related home businesses.
1) Home based Business Idea: Laundry Business
So what are some options? This home business is great because you can take a skill that you
should already have, and then put it to good use to service people that do not have the skill, time, or the energy to do it. Offering a pick up and delivery laundry service just means that you pick one someone’s clothes, wash and dry them, fold them, and then return the clothes to their house. The only thing you will need is the soap to wash the clothes. Be sure to check with your client about any allergies or personal preferences. Some laundry companies require the
client to provide their own laundry detergent for such reasons.
This business especially tailors to bachelors and the elderly, so you will want to advertise in places that would attract this type of
client.
2) Home based Business Idea: Alteration Service
This is another great home business that appeals especially to bachelors and elderly people. If you have basic sewing skills, then you may want to consider starting an alteration service. Alteration could mean hemming pants, changing seams, or dying clothes.
The only out of pocket expense you will have here is your sewing supplies: various colors of thread, needles, and possibly a sewing machine if you are planning on taking on larger jobs.
Since your main focus will be clothing, you will want to advertise at local clothing shops or department stores. You may also want to consider talking with businesses that supply uniforms to employees and offering them a bulk deal of some sort. The business can then recommend their employees to you if an alteration in their uniform is needed. Many options to consider.
Stay tuned for more home based business ideas on a shoestring budget.
