3 Part Time Businesses You Can Start Today

Do You Want Financial Independence?

If you would ask this question to almost anyone they would give you an empathic “YES!”  I can relate.  Achieving financial independence has been in my blood since I started my first business. 

Just to recap quick last week I posted an article Why you should start a part time business about what I learned about my first part time business opportunity and what you can learn from starting your own part time business.  This article is a good place to start.

In this weeks article my outcome is to show you a few business opportunities that are low barrier and low cost to start.  There may be more business opportunities out there like the one Isaac told me about running a vending machine business from home.  

What will these opportunities give you?

• A new way to fund your get out of debt program.  Starting a part time business will allow you to fund your debt plan and if you already have one you can apply the extra money you earn to get you out of debt quicker.
• A new way to build financial security.  You can also use this money to fund your emergency fund, buy extra insurance you may need, or put money back for your retirement.
• Finally it can also be a great way to achieve financial independence.  If your looking to build a business that will give you recurring income this is also a great place to start.

Last thing before I go on.  Starting a part time business is a great way to earn extra income but I recommend that you don’t start any business expecting income immediately.  Instead keep a steady full time job while you get your business off the ground.  This way you aren’t rushed to do it and you won’t be pressured as much to show results.

Now that that’s out of the way lets move on.

Low Barrier Part Time Businesses

• Blogging.  Out of the 3 this is the simplest to start and lowest investment of all of them.  All you have to buy is a domain name and some hosting space and your up and running.  OK, it not that simple but you get my drift.  If you would like to learn more about this opportunity here is a great free video tutorial to get you started.
• Financial Services.  This is where I started my first part time business.  However this opportunity will require little bit more of an investment for licensing and getting you started in there company.  Though one thing I feel that this opportunity will give you is an education on how to run a business.  Usually at no cost to you.  If you have an interest in this you can contact me and I’ll give you more info on this. 
• Affiliate Marketing.  This opportunity allows you to sell products from different companies usually on the internet.  This is similar to blogging but you aren’t constantly putting post up you are marketing products on your website.  Here is a great place to learn more about this.

Other Part Time Business Opportunities

You may be wondering what other ideas there are.  Well this is where it is up to you.  I am starting a new section on my website dedicated to helping you find a part time business opportunity. 

This is where you come in.

If you know of a business opportunity that you would like me to post on my website let me know.  You can either leave me a comment at the end of this post or you can contact me here. 

The business opportunity must be legit, the investment should be minimal, and also be able for someone to start part time.  If you would like me to add an opportunity send me some info so I can review the opportunity.
