Business idea № 10: Library Store

Even though e-books and audio books are sprouting up everywhere, they still could not replace the smell of a new book, the feel of a turning a nice page and holding a hardbound book while sipping on a cup of coffee.

And though it would be hard to compete against the top bookstores, that might just be the advantage you have.

Combining a library - where people could read to their heart's content the best books in the world, while giving them the option of purchasing these books should they want to gives you the best of both worlds. Not to mention the very high possibility of adding a mini-cafe so that the readers can sip on their coffee and grab a meal while reading.

The profit would come in the membership or entrance fee to have access to books, from the book purchases should there be any and of course the food and beverage sales.

Sure, fully booked and other bookstores allow you to read, but at the end of the day, you couldn't go there and stay the whole day without feeling guilty that you didn't buy anything. Plus there seats are few and far in between, not to mention, uncomfortable.

So the store must be simple, very comfortable and spacious enough to accommodate readers and customers.

Business idea № 9: Food Stands

Food is a staple product and thus there will always be an endless demand for food and an appetite for new and delicious dishes out there.

So share you favorite food and turn it into a business. :)

Can't cook? Hire a cook to make the dishes for you.

You can start small by offering the food in your neighborhood, a simple food stand along the street with a few tables will suffice.

If you have the resources though, a restaurant would be a great avenue for your business.

Just be reminded that you need to test your market before launching your food product, or any other product for that matter. Have some free tasting sessions and see how your "customers" think about your food.

Business Idea № 8: Corporate Transportation

While I know that a few of the top corporations already provide shuttle and bus transport services for their employees, there is still quite a huge market for a transport provider for corporate employees.

Basically the idea is to approach the corporations and sell to them the idea of providing transportation for their employees.

Think school bus -- only this time for corporations and offices.

Some of the perks if this works?


  • There will be less cars on the road (good for traffic and the environment)
  • Employees wont have to deal with the stress of a long drive or commute
  • Employees get to work relaxed and rested
  • No more stress caused by the lack of parking spaces

Put premium in being able to bring people to and from work in comfort and style. Nowadays in this fast-moving world of ours, that's something to be appreciated.

"Let's turn ideas into reality."

Business Idea № 7: Tutorial Center

One thing that will never run out in this world is the concept of "Learning." Everyday, more and more emphasis is being put on learning and education and that is a wonderful opportunity for you to share your passion and earn a significant income whether part time or full-time.

It's time to use the education you had, the learnings from the trainings you attended, the experiences you've gained through the years.

Keep in mind that learning need not be academic nor should it be limited to books and computers. Learning can be facilitated everywhere. 

This is a business idea. Make it happen.

Business Idea № 6: START ONLINE

If you don't have the luxury of the time, nor the benefits to have your own office, start from home and start in front of the computer.

Give yourself a goal to make a certain amount of money from your online business within 6 months. MAKE IT HAPPEN.

Online you can make full use of a wide array of business opportunities such as buying and selling, online marketing, webpage making, blogging and social networking.

Again as I continue to emphasize, take advantage of what you know best and what you do best. Then take it online. Advertise online, optimize the social networks, learn the ropes by researching online.

The most important part is that you start something.

Getting into the habit of making businesses and making money by doing what you want and what you love doing is a key to success.

Here's a useful guide for you. Go check it out and start your own business. :)

Business idea № 5: The Eye Cam!

Ever saw something so beautiful or something touching and yet you get frustrated because you either 1) have no camera or 2) By the time you took your camera out, the moment has already passed?

Then with the eye camera (sort of like a spy camera with a camera in the middle of a typical eyeglass only more fashionable and cheaper), you never have to miss those moments again. Just with a simple push of a button and it will take the image/moment that you want to remember forever.

(A security measure for perverts and those with evil intentions must be made though so that the camera wont be used to violate anybody.)

Business Idea № 4: Jollipops! The Happy Lollipops!

They say that candy and sugar can uplift spirits, improve moods and give energy to people. Well, let's do this for all those with negative feelings.

"Lick your negative feelings away."

Can you imagine a lollipop with a sad face on the exterior and upon licking the lollipop the expression changes into a happy face? That's a jollipop.

That would be something fun and de-stressing to eat. :)

Imagine just walking around spreading good mood with your jollipops. Then this world would be so much brighter.


-----------------------------------------------

Oh yeah, please be reminded to treat each entry with a grain of salt. :)

Business Idea № 3: Training/Coaching/Tutoring

Since the idea is to start with something you're passionate about and exceptionally skilled at, we begin by looking at the idea of coaching/tutoring/mentoring.

By teaching others what you are good at and what you are passionate about, you can earn a considerable amount of income.

Just look at the world out there, the richest and the most famous are those whose lives revolve around what they know best and what they do best. I'm sure that there's a chance that what you are doing in your life now isn't what you love best nor what you do best.

So one of the easiest ways to earn that extra income and start your road to your business empire is to teach people and earn from those who are willing to pay the price for learning - and believe me, there are plenty.

Business Idea № 2: AD Agency for the start-ups

Marketing is a continuously growing field and advertising is a major industry that never stops evolving. So the opportunities are endless.

Business also never stop sprouting. 

So if you have the passion for advertising, design and production, start your own.

Help smaller and starting business grow and they will help you grow as well. With this you will be able to have more control of your life, your time and your own happiness and fulfillment.

Furthermore, there is beauty in numbers. Why go for a big client when you can go for 10 small ones who, with your help will turn into 10 big ones?

In addition, what better way to prove yourself as an account executive or advertising expert by making other companies grow from the start? :)

-----------------------------------------------------

How?

1. Do your research and learn (gather as much data as you can in terms of running your own business and learn from them)
2. Do it on the side if you can't give your full-time (if you don't have enough savings in the bank that will last you for 6 months, start small)
3. From Freelance -- to legal business

Freelancing is a start. But in order to become big, you have to prepare BIG. So turn it into a legal corporation.

Business Idea № 1: Start Your Own Business

It all starts with the idea to have your own business. That's why this is the first idea. Half-stupid, half-great!

Why start your own business?

It's simply a matter of perspective. Why slave away for a corporation when you can start your own and make 10 or even a hundred times as much?

It's simple a matter of choice. Is your work really what you wanted to have? Are you following your passion? Your dream? Are you fulfilled with what you're doing? (Chances are, you answer to the last question was a "No")

It's your choice to do what we want and be what we want.

To cut it shortly, the most successful and fulfilled people are those who get to do everything they want to do, but still get paid for it and they have the time to be with the important people in their lives.

The Business Pipeline

Why business?

Because everyone has a business idea --- but not everyone has the guts to make these ideas happen. And no one can do all the businesses alone.

I say guts because that's all it takes to make that leap into business. Resources will come, finances and opportunities will come, only if courage is taken.

Why pipeline?

Because someday this will lead to a bevy of businesses being created and being successful. Ultimately this will lead to a lot of lives changed.

From the craziest and most outrageously stupid business ideas to the ones that are actually great ideas that will bring in profit, this blog will show them all.

Laugh at the stupid ones as much as you want.

Act on the brilliant and feasible ones as fast as you can.

These are my ideas.

What are yours?

Let's make this happen.
