Businesses you can run from anywhere for under $1,000

[thejaytiesto]

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.

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 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!

     1. WEBSITE DESIGNER
     2. ACCOUNTANT

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).

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.

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.

[kaomaxx]

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

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

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.

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.

One business in my mind is Forex trading but it is quite risky if you do not have proper know how of the economics.

$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.
