1. Haulage
Haulage involves transportation of goods and products from
place to place. Most businesses that deal in goods and services—especially
manufacturers and wholesale dealers—need haulage contractors from time to time
to help them transport raw materials or distribute finished goods to their
customers. To start a haulage business, what you basically need is a good
truck, a driver, and a contract with a company to handle their haulage tasks;
and you are good to go. No selling and no marketing at all.
2. Event planning
Another business that you can run without having to sell any
products is event planning. However, you need to have a passion for planning
and organization to succeed in this business. You could be either a corporate
or a social event planner.
Corporate event planners organize meetings, workshops,
annual general meetings, luncheons and other corporate events for companies,
while social event planners organize weddings, birthdays, bridal showers and
other social events for their clients. Social event planners get more jobs
regularly, while corporate event planners usually don’t have as much events to
plan but may earn a lot more than social event planners. So you need to
consider this difference before taking a plunge.
3. Babysitting
This is also known as child minding. A large percentage of
parents are of the working class, which means they have to be at work every day
and usually need someone to mind their kids until they are back home. This is
where babysitters come in; they help parents take care of their kids until the
parents are back home. There are also adult caregivers who specialize in caring
for senior citizens who are too weak to take care of themselves.
4. Tutoring
Tutoring is another business that completely
requires no form of selling. All you need is a sharp mind, excellent teaching
skills, and good advertising strategies to make people aware of your services.
Tutoring services can be done online or offline.
5. Business coaching
Yet another business that doesn’t require selling is
business coaching services. Many people want to start their own businesses but
are completely at loss on how to go about it. Such people need guidance and
direction from an expert who would hold their hands and guide them through the
process—and, of course, get paid for the services they render. If you have the
passion, knowledge, and experience required to become a business coach, why not
go for it?
6. Cleaning services-:
If you love to clean or are obsessed
with organization, offering cleaning services is a suitable business idea for
you. There are many people who cannot afford the time to clean their own homes
or offices—but are willing to pay anyone who can do it for them
7. Laundry services-:
Laundry service is a simple business
to start provided you take your time to learn the skills required and to
understand how to maximize your income potential. Again, it requires no form of
selling at all.
8. Market research
Market research is usually required by companies that are
planning a start-up, considering adding a new product to their line, or making
changes to an existing product. These companies cannot just do any of these
things without first studying the market and the consumer’s likely reactions to
such decisions. Usually, it is the market researchers that are contracted to
carry out these market research tasks.
9. Blogging
If there’s a topic you love or something you would like to
talk about and share with the world, you can easily turn that into a
money-spinning business just by creating a blog and having people advertise
their products or services once the blog starts generating huge traffic.
10. Freelance writing-:
Lastly, you can become a freelance
writer. You will be paid by individuals and organizations to write blogs posts,
magazine articles, business plans, ebooks, and so on. And you’ll be well-paid
for doing that.
