Businesses you can run from anywhere for under $1,000 :
     1. WEBSITE DESIGNER
     2. ACCOUNTANT
     3. MATCHMAKING SERVICE
     4. TECH SUPPORT
     5. EDITORIAL SERVICES
     6. DIGITAL MARKETING AND PR
     7. TRAVEL EXPERT
     8. LIFE COACH/CONSULTANT
     9. CONTENT CURATOR

I need to challenge you a bit on your "under $1,000" comment. How are you defining that?

I need a computer to conduct any of these businesses, and that will likely cost me $1,000. What about the cost of advertising to get customers? The cost of training to understand how to be a website designer, accountant, editor, tech support, digital marketer, etc? There's also an opportunity cost. My time is worth money, therefore should be considered a cost as I start up a new business.

I think these business ideas are great - they all have low barriers for entry, but I don't think any can be successfully deployed for less than $1,000.

Your thoughts?

I think he's talking about services that you can run from home that will cost less than $1000 to uphold (run), not to start. It actually doesn't cost that much to be a website designer :)

You can definitely design websites very cheaply.
All you need is a computer and maybe some program like Dreamweaver, or not even that if you are really good or making just simple pages.

I've seen people make money just putting together a simple Wordpress site for some small businesses.
If you actually know something about HTML, CSS and PHP you could make a lot of money. You just have to work to get some clients.

Thats if you have that skill. If you dont have skills like that. Better have a food business. Food cart is an example of that. You must choose which foods are popular to make sure your food that you are going to sell will be buy. Also try whole selling. Buy whole sale product and sell it on a higher amount.

to be honest almost all of the businesses in the list of OP are "Jobs" not business. you don't really need any money to be a website designer, since you only need a computer for that and almost all of us already own a PC at home with an internet connection. the rest is the same too, you need to advertise (most of the time free) or look for freelance jobs and take them.

Till now i dont get the op point, is this a kind of incentive to make people invest on those places? Anyway there are more options for those people without skills, but investing is the easy way to collect bitcoins ahead, without a lot work. I see some good projects that havent cost even 500 dollars making huge sucess.

for people that don't have a skill, they can do a blog. no need to be expert to make a money for starting. i've seen many blogger start from scratch, they have idea, they write their idea on blog, and the best part, blogging is easy, no need to pay monthly, only your internet connection.

you can not invest in those in the first post!
this is one of those strange topics that is not clear what OP was meaning to say and he hasn't yet came back to explain what he means.

i mean think about it, you really don't need money for item #1 the WEBSITE DESIGNER, you can start an office and call it designing office which may need more than $1000 but you can still do it as freelance and without spending anything so i don't know what that $1000 is in any case!!!

Website designer and digital marketing can be run from anywhere, others are in doubt. If you are accountant, how can you work in the company from your online computer. It is not possible in real life.  ;D

Yes ! I want to say that if you have skills than you don't need any proper job from a firm ! You just need a P.c and an internet connection !! This side job gives you more than business !!

You can definitely do most of this for under $1,000. Why would you need $1,000 for a PC? A $500 one would work fine and be completely satisfactory for most things, hell I'm on a $300 laptop right now doing this and I've done graphical work on here in the past. Advertising can be doing freelance work and building up a clientele. The training costs might exceed the $1,000 on top of the PC, but most of the stuff can be found online and thus you can access most of it for free.

As for opportunity costs, it's only up to you to start it, and chances are this is in the respect of you having no other form of work to do. Most can probably be relatively easy to start up for $1,000.

It is necessary to look at any organization or any accountant profile. Because accounting implies a full financial accounting business. You do not have to sit in a particular office to do so. Information about the accountant can enter online.

Sir ! I am here !! if you read replies i think Minglee already given Best Answer Explaining my point !! Thanks to Minglee !!

I think web designer is best out of those for me but if we want it to be profitable then i think bit more investement will be required for marketing purpose and hiring the writing to write content on site and also hiring a designer and other expenses.But i think it is one of the businesses which can be started with a bit smaller amount.

with $ 1,000 I can become a trader. a trader can make money more than other jobs.
a trader will also have a lot of free time and can also work wherever he is.

Thank You sir !! For best Explanation !! Now I think others got my Point of Post !!

  Yes ! But You know every individual have different skill !! For trading you must have a trading mindset !! But Yes ,No doubt Trading is most beneficial !

I think trading needs lots of background research and also have to be able to trade daily on fixed times so this will take lots of time however it is true you can earn good amount. But earning with only 1000$ initial bankroll may not be that much to be sufficient for living.

Some of the services/businessess in list even don't require 100$ to start like web designing and digital marketing as freelancer.

If you have skill you do not need that $1000 to start or run a business.   Half of it I think would be enough.  Well, because I live here in a country which the equivalent of that amount is almost 50,000.00.  You could buy a complete set of personal computer with that amount.  Online job were the in demand job as of the moment.  You can even post your items to sell at a vast selection of online stores.  Or apply as call center agent.  You can even teach English lesson to foreign country specifically Japan and China.

Very good thread, I am always looking for ways to make income from the internet so im not tied to some physical place, I hate that feeling. So I would say $1,000 is more than enough, less actually. All it takes is a couple of dollars a year to host websites, other than that everything else you can get it for free, including the knowledge.

You have a real nice and realistic listing of work or job you can do with $1000.  I guess that would be enough to buy the must have tool for every job, a computer.  Computer is I think the most vital thing or apparatus right now that we need to earn more.  Just click and then you could do your thing.  There are lots of online jobs you could work on or maybe establish an online store. 

Very true. I've read very successful stories about someone created a very simple website of for his company and started receiving job offers and the rest are history. 

I'm read some people started with just $200 and made their way up trading on forex. Working online is a real advantage here because as long as there is internet connection in your area, you can work comfortably wearing pajamas.

i believe 1000$ is huge amount to invest in the beginning .before investing it is best to aquire those skills by doing some online or offline jobs , gain experience and then  invest 1/10 of the amount like 100$ begin with and then if it  looks profitable probably that time we can concentrate on investing little more money in those things :).

This post seems pretty generic and has no direct Bitcoin relevance. What means running for under $1000? A $1000 one-time investment or monthly / yearly costs of $1000? Where did you gather this information from?

I think there is a huge number of potential businesses that require no or minimal investment. Almost everything you can do with your own skill set without expensive raw materials is suitable. There are even a lot of handicraft and simple jobs that can be the foundation for a business: Designing greeting / wedding cards, guarding pets or gardening works. What's most important: You enjoy what you're doing - then you will be good at it and increase your chances for running a successful business.

ya.ya.yo!

These are not businesses,these are jobs that you can work.

To have a business ,usually you need employees to work for you.

In online business sometimes you don`t need employees and you can be your own boss.

The costs of running an online business can be very small sometimes.

Most of these businesses are side jobs that people run from their home office.
But they can not rely on them as primary source of income. When it just starts out. No it would only be considered a secondary job that is done in their spare time.
Maybe when it garners enough clientele then it can be considered a viable business that can be your only job to support you and your family.

I think Op means it in a way when you can start these kind of businesses having budget of $1000. So it is like initial funds needed to start.
And of course you can encounter additional expenses later, as it is almost impossible to evade.

Whether $1000 is sufficient amount is highly debatable because it purchasing power varies from place to place. So I guess it is like generic thought of an Op in this case.

Good list. There are many businesses which do not require capital in cash but in the form of time. The best way is to learn skills online (and that one can do for free) and to offer it online on appropriate forums or building own portal.

If you have computer and a working internet connection & some time then there is no need of $1000 in order to run a business (unless you are paying for computer expenses).

Yeah thats a good list looks like i am interested in web designing.. but i have my own way and i am using a small amount to have a big earnings even i dont have $1k usd.. i think i choose a good place where i can earn a lot after i am studying i think business with bitcoin for me is the best..

1000$ is an indeed a big amount to invest. I would perfer if someone can guide how to run small business from 100$ to 200$ ?
One business in my mind is Forex trading but it is quite risky if you do not have proper know how of the economics.

There are variety of stuff you can do by that sort of money.try to invest them in trustable service whether it is fiat or in the form of bitcoin.if you have good coding skills then you can buy good software which matches your skills then you will gain good profit.

yeah, investing is always a great decision because it can give you a decent amount of money and maybe even become rich with small investments

to me 1000$ is a very little amount to invest in a business, i think if you have skill then you can buy tools suiting your skill from 1000$. therefore you should focus on your skill rather than investing such low amount of money in business, or starting a new business with such a low amount of money.

I wouldn't say from anywhere because even if you go on holiday or somewhere else you need to have the laptop so you can continue or work a little bit, otherwise an ipad or other devices is a must if you want to run your business, then powerbanks if you go hiking etc etc.

When you say run a business anywhere that would imply you want to be working online like on this forum and I would suggest trying the loan business as 1000 dollars is 2 btc shy at current rate but you would require some experience to avoid writing off debt and the alike

Yeah, after reading the list I was also thinking the same, and I found that only for web designer maybe some funds needed in order to advertsie about his services , or to create a small website for his announcement and portfolio, while most of them are just jobs to do for a company.

You can also be a doctor with little investment. One suitcase with a stethoscope, a notepad, a pen, some tissues, a couple of syringes, you don't need much really. Well, it takes years of studying, but that's another issue.

$1k  amount would be enough to  make investment s in forex trading  because  even in small pips  in profitable trades  would give you such profit but  you would not experience  succesful trades all the time you would lose for sure sometimes. Forex trading needs some  skills and research because if you dont put attention into it then  your money would be gone.

You don't always need to have employees working for you in order to have your own business, most of the time as long as you're generating some sort of value from providing a good or service you can call it a form of business. It just depends on your definition. Online or physical businesses don't need more than 1 employee all the time, some can operate just fine with smaller numbers.

Good list but I cannot do it as I am not that good with all the things you have listed.  But true, you could have a business just by having $1,000 or less or actually for FREE.  There are many websites now that offers good income and have a job just for free.  All you need is to buy a complete set of computer and an internet connection to run your own business.  You may want to put up an online store and sell different things starting from candies to jewelries.  Everything is possible right now as we are on computer generation.

If you have skill you can create HYIP website (website designer) then you can earn money from it. It defends upon to your settings. If you like to double your bitcoin during the set of your time go for it. As far I know many investors know about the rules and principles of HYIP website so do not worry just go for your good. The house is always win.

You could open online casino or online slot game. In that case you need just a designer and to pay to him and a computer, of course.
if to think there are many kinds of business that everyone can start with such small budget. and that ones that you called are just the most popular.

Does look like a very easy thing to do in the gambling business. But you should know, that gambling must require a lot of preparation. From start up to design a system that will be used, because if we just follow the design and the same system with the gambling business other then that you create will not give a good effect. Because most of the gamblers want to find profitable gambling place and provide a sense of comfort for every gambling does. so think with everything possible in order to get the correct results
 

Only business that can be run without knowledge and with minimum investments is buying and selling things on eBay and other similar places, even on forums that have market section (like this forum have). Find something cheaper and sell it for more, there is big difference in price around the world, some things are not available everywhere.
For things on the list not everyone is capable, there is schools and colleges for that, and not to mention many others that are doing the samenthing much better already.

Your advice is like telling "You can scam and steal money from people by creating another shitty HYIP" and keep in mind that anyone who participated into HYIP most of them are getting lured by referrals hunters whose life are to make people getting scammed in every HYIP and repeating its shitty life cycle for the sake of few cents from every new HYIP created

If I will make a feasibility study I can say that the businesses that you mentioned can possibly be done without purchasing equipments, renting a stall and many more. So if we just have a 1000$ and engange in those business and buy some equipments such as computer, beautify the office, buy office materials and others needed the 1k $ is not enough. In this case the business owner should have at least 3k to 5k $ to start a business equipped with facilities and equipments needed to run it.

We live in a digital world today. Of course there are businesses (mainly in the service sector) which you can start with less than $1k. The main cost driver may be actually paperwork and registration expenses to satisfy the ever growing officialdom.

Normally you already own some kind of computer device and have internet access. You don't need to buy that extra in the beginning. With internet access (and Bitcoin), a worldwide market is waiting at your fingertips. It all just depends on your creativity, your skills to acquire customers and your willingness to work.
