Business Ideas for Self-Starting Entrepreneurs

Tips & Tricks

23 May 2023 • Bacaan 3 minit

Want to pursue your own venture or interested in making some money on the side with your skills? Here are a few options you can look into.

 

There’s a wealth of opportunities out there for the enterprising individual such as yourself. With a vision and the initiative, you can start your own journey promptly, and make moves towards building a network and good rapport with potential partners and clients.

 

But sometimes you just need a good idea to kick things off. Due to the variety of enterprises out there, that can be a challenge.  

 

You shouldn’t worry, though. With some digging around and a little insight, you might just find your next course of action — or you can just read on here to explore possible avenues for you and your future business!

  

 

Getting creative with handiwork, crafts, and design 

 

It’s nice to know that you can leave your mark and create joy for others through the power of arts and crafts. If you already have a creative talent, and enjoy drawing, sculpting, printing and more, then with a bit of investment into equipment and stationery, you can get started on accepting commissions and bring your artistic vision to life.

 

 

Cleaning or redecorating homes

 

Where most see this as a chore, you see a chance to help (and of course, the payment doesn’t hurt either). Cleaning and redecorating can be turned into a profitable business, especially if you’re able to assemble a crew who can put in the elbow grease, gather cleaning supplies, and formulate a marketing plan.

 

 

Transcription, proofreading, or copywriting

 

This is a good option if you have a knack for writing, whether it’s your own journal or blog, or if you just have a fondness for crafting written pieces. While applications like ChatGPT are making the rounds for their AI-generated writing, there’s still room for the human touch to thrive.

 

This is especially true in the field of transcription and translation too, as AI hasn’t quite reached the language sophistication of a native speaker when it comes to quick Bahasa Melayu, Mandarin, or Tamil interpretations.

 

 

Master one dish and share it with the world 

 

Food is always a worthwhile starting point, as you can’t go wrong with a good dish or delicacy. Plus, it was a great unifier in times like the past lockdown, where many of us revisited the long-lost hobby of cooking, baking, and kitchen wizardry. 

 

With that in mind, if you have a set recipe or dish that you know by heart and can make consistently every time, then why not serve it up as an offering that showcases your culinary know-how? You can always start small and take limited orders, and if your customer base grows, be sure to take the necessary steps to guarantee food safety and comply with sanitary standards.
