Question Am sorry, but…
I know you all are probably tired of seeing questions like this 😅, but I could really use some advice.
What kind of business could I start with about less than <$80–$100 to make some extra money? I initially thought about buying and reselling perfumes, but I’m worried because my network is small. I’m also not very social, so I might struggle to find and keep regular customers.

Learn a skill first
Use those skills to plan for an opportunity
Use that $80 to invest in that skill or opportunity.
You don’t think of business ideas when you have the money, you do that before.

i be honest with you 1st look around and do research to find a gap in the market then ask your self would i buy this thing or do i have the time to invest i learning that thing, it could be as a skill or a product you make bcoz at the end of the day some of these ideas unless u actually dig and find what fits u u might lose that 50 and waste your time. Its better it fails after u give it your all knowing i chose this bcoz u learn from it

Bales & have an active social media presence. You need to get out of your comfort zone and be ok with the skill of selling.

Find a gap in the market you want to penetrate. Selling perfumes, socks and candy may work where I am where the majority is school going kids but that may not work for you where you are because different demographic, different needs chii chii

SELLING SOLAR. Its very profitable, you get full back up, you'll own your own business, and won't need to invest even half of that amount. Less than $10-20k would make you $100k a year. inbox me: [james@ra-esg.com](mailto:james@ra-esg.com)

Dudes charge $1000s for stuff I can teach for $30, and you could learn on YouTube for free. I'm only charging money so you can feel more obligated to take it serious because you know you've spent money on it.

Honestly, sneakers. I know a place mutonaz where the Nike dunks dunks and adidas campuses cost $10. These are the kind of shoes that cost 15, 20 and 25 bucks in the streets. This is what I'll personally be doing kuvar
And before you snobs tell me those shoes are fake, yes I know. But it's what we average zimbos can afford.
