how do start your own business?

If you know how to cook you can cook ans sell it. If you are near in schools, start some finger foods, acccesories or school supplies.

I am approaching your question from a different angle. Try working at a couple of different employers and get the hang of what it takes to run a business. You can have the brightest idea, but if you don't know what it takes to manage ANY business, you will end in the gutter disappointed and most probably with debts.

I checked for what's in demand or the craze... Two years back, i started making beaded accessories because people are getting more and more crazy about it.. The good part is that I am creative, artistic and loves crafts so i enjoyed it. Its good and gave me a lot of profit. at least probe on what teh people need and what you can easily provide.

Hello! JUst two days ago we (my sisters and I) come up with an idea to make choco munchkins with a minimum of 100 pesos capital. Its really very easy to make...just mix the crushed(to really fine grains) Hiro biscuits and condensed milk then make little circles out of it and after that roll it in the dessicated coconut and place the nips at the top for the finishing touch. So simple to make and we well it for 1 peso each. The next day we made tuna sandwich and sell it for 6 pesos. I just got bored and thought I make something new so I venture into this little business.(",)

I would suggest start selling on ebay and you can join good MLM program like ameriplanusa.com

you can try selling kids' pony tails, clips, scrunchies. you can do a consignment if you have friends who are working in offices. you can just buy these in bulk, and just re-pack them, you can even put your own tag/name in each pack. these are a hit with Moms out there who love to buy hair accessories but are sometimes hesitant because of the cost of buying these in the Malls. you can also do beaded accessories, like necklace, bracelet, rings. you can use swarovski crystals. buy also in bulk, and also buy some magazines or just surf the internet for ideas. i do these businesses on the side, and i even put up a stall in a mini-mall in our place, but i had to close it and just moved my inventories at home because i had difficulty finding somebody to man the store.
