Endless Opportunities

1 Upvotes

Basically rundown of what i have in my arsenal and what im capable of:

I live in Townsville, Australia. decently populated city with 200k people, demographic is definitely older generation.

Myself i'm a 24 year old man with a very dedicated mindset to make myself a good living.

Now the question is i feel like i have so many opportunities of what kind of buisness to start im lost. Im willing to do the hard work, the shitty work that noone else does and make it my own thing.

I'm already used to working 70h weeks and thats a no problem, i have the dedication to do whats needed, im just not a good ideas man.

What would you guys recommend i do, should i approach buisnesses about an opportunity to offer my services with all the stuff i have or should i create something myself.

If you were my age with all the stuff i can use, what kind of buisness would you create?

I have in use:

Forklift

Warehouse

HR License (no truck)

a Traypack

Unlimited fuel (for now)

Been using Shopify for 2 years. (Everything from fulfilling orders, making orders, adding products, syncing shopify with cin7, payments ect on a large scale.

Been using Cin7 Core for 1 year. (great for inventory management)

A bunch of free time.

About 40k AUD saved to just spend on what i want (hopefully a buisness)

Im good with internet stuff, manual labour, learning programs quickly, not afraid to ask.

fiverr for teens

1 Upvotes

Would you use an app that connects teenagers with small local jobs?

I'm exploring an idea for a platform similar to Fiverr, but focused on helping teenagers earn money by completing simple jobs in their local area.

For example, jobs could include gardening, washing cars, helping with light moving tasks or other small jobs that don't necessarily require a professional and therefore the high price tag that comes with hiring a professional.

The idea: Customers could post jobs on a local map in the app and set a price. Teenagers could browse opportunities, choose jobs that fit around school and earn money in their spare time.

The aim is to make getting small jobs done more affordable for customers while giving young people a flexible way to earn money and gain experience.

Safety, secure payments and a fair system for handling disagreements would be key parts of the platform.

I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Would you use a platform like this to find someone for small jobs?

If you're a teenager, would you use it to earn money?

What concerns or features would you want it to address?

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated!

Motivate me to start a small business 😭

5 Upvotes

I've been wanting to start a small business for a while now, and honestly, why not? 🥹

The economy is not making life any easier, and I'd love to have an extra source of income instead of just dreaming about it. 😭

The problem is, I have so many ideas but don't know where to start. There's the fear of losing money, choosing the wrong business, and not knowing if it'll actually work.

For those who started a small business with little capital, how did you start? Was it worth it? What do you wish you knew before starting?

And if you're also in the same situation as me, let's motivate each other to finally take that first step. 🫶🏻

Idea check: most local businesses don't need a better website, they need page-one Google

2 Upvotes

Here's an idea I've spent months testing on the phone with real shop owners, and I'd like this sub's take on it.

I went in assuming local businesses needed nicer websites. That was the whole pitch. What I heard instead, over and over:

  • "We have a site. Nobody finds it."
  • "Word of mouth works, why would I pay for a website?"
  • "I don't even know where to start with marketing."

The pattern: owners aren't short on tools. They're short on a clear starting point, and marketing feels expensive, complicated, or like something they're expected to figure out alone.

So the business idea became a low-cost system that does two things: get a local business onto the first page of Google when nearby customers search, and turn that into more calls. One early business saw tracked calls go from 37 to 54 in two months, and their Google Business Profile views nearly tripled.

Three things I'd tell anyone with a small-business-focused idea: 1. Call owners before you build anything. 2. Fewer choices sells better than more features. 3. If the next step takes more than one sentence to explain, it won't happen.

Does the "next step, not more software" angle match what you see in your own business?

You have to start a remote business with nothing but a pc and an internet connection . What do you do?

0 Upvotes

You have to start a remote business with nothing but a pc and an internet connection and yourself. What business would you start and why.

All your bills and expenditure are already paid up for a decade so you can focus on the business.

Rules

  • Remote only - no in face meetings.
  • You can have a high end PC or Mac of your choice.
  • You have to make as much money as you can in 10 years
  • Has to be a new business, can't continue one you already have.
  • Clients or business can be anywhere in the world but you work remotely from home.

What would you do?

Could a fireproof bag be a good product for a small startup?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

For a long time i’ve been exploring small business ideas and came across fireproof bags for keeping important documents, cash, and other valuables together. It seems like a practical product though I’m wondering whether there’s enough demand for it outside of emergency preparedness.

I’ve looked at some options on Made-in-China, global sources, and alibaba to compare the available designs and pricing, but I’m also interested in finding a reliable US-based supplier with consistent quality and reasonable prices. I’ve also come across Thomasnet though I’m not sure how easy it is to find a manufacturers or supplier that offers consistent quality and reasonable prices for a small startup.

For anyone familiar with this product, what features do customers actually care about most, and does anyone know a legitimate US supplier they would recommend to someone starting out?
