Hello everybody,

what is the best way to start a good business which may last 3 or 5 years (maybe a lifetime) for a starter?

Can you suggest?

Thanks

It depends on the amount of your capital. How much will be your capital?

Everyone has different situation, so the choice is multiple, you should srearch an investment less competitive and easily to make money, btw, house investment will be a good choice for now.

Hello ShyroStudio,

I have seen this more times, people I know have a hobby which turns into a very productive business for them, which means they can quit their job and now are now doing something they really enjoy doing and making money.

Something using the internet will be a good option, you can use minimum capital, wait patiently and make a lot of money!

Exactly this. It worked for me!

OR if you have access to resources (in any field) that you believe you can capitalise on then go for it!

Above all things, just don't forget to carefully do some extensive research and planning if you wish to have a business that will run for years.

As per me the best way to start any business is to ask yourself first "What you will love to do daily?". Doing any business with passion will give you success for sure, so never get diverted by other's success rather try to stick to your heart

Hello ShyroStudio, to start a business you should consider different options, ideas, strategies and etc. to help you manage your business.

First thing to do is decide what your business is going to be. In an online business you will save a lot of cost like rent,electricity, office equipment materials, and tools.
Second is your budget if you have your budget you can easily determine how big your business is going to be. If you have a limited budget you can also find some business partner.
Next is you will need to hire employees. In an online business you can hire employees anywhere in the world. You can visit freelancing site like Freelancer and Odesk. It will help you find competitive employees for the business you are planning.
Your employees will be working from their home and it is hard to manage them. Then you will also need some online tools that will help you manage your employees and run your business efficiently and effectively.

Many people I know have put off the idea of having their own business for one simple reason: they do not have enough money or credit to come up with the necessary start-up capital. They all share they same problem, and they do because all of them have been approaching the issue in the same way: they have all been thinking about getting in business with a franchise, a small store at a mall, etc.

Try to be a consultant? Grab the Business and Outsource it and make it done through Freelancers? Don't you think it is a wonderful Idea? It will take not much cost but yes hard work and time investment is there.

That's a really tough question.
1. THINK what kind of business will you put up i.e. food, clothing, tech
2. THINK what are your talents or assets
3. THINK if #1 and #2 can collaborate
4. THINK of the possible expenses
5. THINK of how to manage the business

Basically, you just need a lot of thinking.

First create a realistic business plan. Whether you want to start a home-based business or run one from a commercial structure, you will increase your chances of success with a well-developed plan in hand.

There is quite a bit of good information here. I would say even before using any of it, you need to make sure you have a "business mindset" and you understand how a business works financially.

Do you now the difference between an asset, a liability, income and an expense?

What is the differences between an employee, a self employed person, a business owner and an investor?

Answer these first and I will tell you the next steps.

Not exactly probing questions to determine someone's business management skills or knowledge.

Asking the difference between gross profit and net profit is a better test.
