It does not have to take a great amount of money to start a career as an entrepreneur. There are various low cost business ideas you can start as soon as you want.

Many seniors and busy people never have the time or a way of going shopping for themselves whether it be for groceries, gifts or personal supplies. You could become an overnight sensation as a personal shopper to these people. They will come to you whenever they are in need of shopping advice or services. The best way to do this is to find the best sales on products and supplies the client needs and save the some money in the long run.

All you need for a personal shopping business to get started is a reliable vehicle with enough room to carry packages and groceries back and forth. You will also need to have fliers printed up and post all around town especially in senior centers and such. You will need room within your home for packaging, wrapping and sorting things and most of all a very strong nose to find all the best deals and bargains for their bucks.

More companies are hiring independent contractors as virtual assistants instead of in-office administrative help. Starting a virtual assistant business is fairly low costs especially if you already have computer, fax, printer and high speed Internet access already. You get to go to work every day in your own comfortable home.

Virtual assistant’s take care of tasks such as transcribing, word processing, meeting reminder’s, handling correspondences, management of the database, processing information, faxing, research and the employer’s arrangements for travel plans. Anything a regular secretary should be able to do is what is needed here.

Another great and low cost idea for a business is that of freelance writer. If you have a love for writing then this is a perfect job for you. It is easier than you think.

There are so many web sites a freelance writer can go to in search of writing job offers. Most allow you to bid on writing projects potential employer’s have posted. Jobs for freelance writer’s include blogs, e-books, resume’s, technical and business, medical, transcribing, content for the web and catalog product descriptions. This is one of the best low cost business ideas out there if you have a knack for writing. You do not need a fancy degree just common sense and imagination to make your career dreams come true.

Now I know why many people outsource VA. It’s cheaper and closer to work with. One of the advantages I think is that you could give a task whether or not you’re in the office or home.
