Low Startup Low Investment Online Business...

...with high growth and high income potential.

I have been looking into the possibility of starting an online business of some kind, and am hoping the ATS entrepreneurs can give me some suggestions and direction. I am already self-employed, and hoping to supplement my present business, and eventually transition to a full-time online venture that will allow me to live anywhere in the country, instead of being tied to a local customer base. Any ideas would be appreciated. I'm looking for avenues I haven't thought of, or explored yet. I'm hoping to stay away from physical products as much as possible, but I wouldn't reject that as a possibility, either. Thoughts?

Muahah.

Off topic, but HILARIOUS.

As for the OP, I would suggest something in in Consulting. Plenty of web based businesses are willing to shell out tons of money for a good pair of 2nd eyes on their operations.

Outside of that, I can only suggest the millions of 50000 a day, working from home, answering survey ads we see so much of on the nets these days lol

I hear the position has been put on hold, pending management restructure.

last i heard...... the government believes you should be put in prison about three times longer for that than murder. so, definitely not a bright career.

an excellent goal.

As more and more states legalize MJ, it increasingly becomes more mainstream from a entrepreneurial perspective.

Opportunities abound around this new industry. If I wasn't so bogged down with my current 3 endeavors, I'd be researching this and finding a comfortable little niche somewhere.

I know you can write! Content and copy is always in demand from producers of everything...commercials, comedy, TV, scripts, documentaries, etc. With the new political season upon us; media people are in demand. This is where my endeavors are concentrated currently. Low start up, 0 investment....I'm sure you already have a laptop or tablet.

I have a friend that writes copy/articles on beaches from Thailand to Jamaica and another that drives high dollar sports cars and writes about their performance for online mags. spends most of his time in Europe.

Good Luck!!

Kinky dating sites.

I hear that there is a lot of money to be made by being an online Nigerian prince.

Why not focus on expanding your current business? For example, if you already have an established and loyal customer base offer them incentives for referrals.

It's a lot easier to expand something in place than start from scratch.

Network marketing.

1. Low startup
2. Low investment/overhead
3. Online

There are also many other reasons why you might want to consider looking at this business model...but your criteria are easily met when looking at network marketing.

Interesting. I have considered blogging as a way to start, but it takes time to build clicks and get advertisers. I've not considered some of the things you've mentioned, though. Worth looking into. Thanks.

I considered something crazy like a dating site. Lol.

The market does seem to be saturated, though. Unless I can think of some new twist on it.

I've considered this, and already do something similar, but I'm looking to transition into something that doesn't lock me into a local market. Good suggestion though.
