I am impressed that you are taking interest in searching for under $5000 business ideas. As I have been discussing in this series of articles, it is possible to start a business with little investment and still be able to earn your living from it. I have discussed a few such ideas in my article Unique Under $5000 Business Ideas. Before I share some more ideas with you, I want you to know that you do not necessarily have to invest hundreds of thousand dollars to earn a living. Even million-dollar business have gone bankrupt and eventually closed down and even a small business has enabled millions to earn a decent living. So take your work seriously and give yourself time to prove your worth.
Now, here are a few more business ideas that I am going to share with you:
Collectible Trading
If you have knowledge of collectible items, like currency coins and notes, seashells, books, cords etc., you can make good money trading collectibles. There are many websites that are a great way to source and sell items.
Furniture Maker
If you are very good at creating things with your hands and know how to work with wood and other materials, you could easily make and sell your own unique pieces of furniture, like chairs and coffee tables. It takes very little equipment to get underway.
Gardening
This is something I love doing! Weeding, lawn mowing, pruning, planting are things that need to be done if someone has a garden. However, not everyone who has a garden is fond of gardening and they are more than willing to have the garden maintained by someone else. If you are good at your work and punctual, nothing like it. Every time they see their garden clean and well-maintained and enjoy the view, they will see your hard work in it and are most likely to recommend you to other who need the same service. You could earn an income by providing gardening services, and if you work well, you will likely be able to make this a regular source of income.
Handy-man Services
Every day there are many little things to be done around the house, getting grocery, fixing a cabinet door, replacing a broken window, that people just don’t get around to doing, or if they are elderly or unwell, are unable to do it themselves. While we are young and more capable of doing these things effortlessly, there is good income to be earned from it Once you show that you are capable and reliable, you’ll get even more work through referrals.
Garage Sale Manager
A smart way to do this as a business would be to hold regular garage sales. Initially once a week if possible. Customers will regularly start stopping by to check for new bargains. Look out for any unwanted items that you may have at home, or collect them from family, friends and neighbours. Most people are happy to get rid of their junk without having to go out and sell it or hold a yard sale. Whatever you collect, make an agreement to split the proceeds as and when the items are sold. You could also click pictures of the items and display them on your website for sale. When you start getting requests, you will know better what kind of items are more in demand, so you could start keeping an eye for the availability of those items. If this works for you, you may even start buying form those who want to sell and provide those items to those who are willing to purchase them. But all of this can be handled efficiently only if you have a website for your work. If you don’t have a website yet, get one, before you set out to start the work. You can then add all the services that you provide, pictures, testimonials, and rates of the items on the website. You contact number, or an email address displayed on your website is a great way for people to find you and be able to reach out to you easily.
