What to do to make money - TOP 9 working ideas for a beginning businessman
Now that we've sorted out the directions, it's time to talk about specific ideas.
This is just a small list of business projects that have already been successful for thousands of businessmen before you. If others have succeeded, then you have an excellent chance!
1) Organization of road transport
For such a business, a truck is required - it does not matter whether it is your own, entrusted, rented or leased. Freight transport is in demand all year round - people move from place to place, purchase large items that cannot be transported in a passenger car.
Enterprises also move and expand, transport goods for production, etc.
If you are targeting apartment and office moves, you will need to involve 1-2 responsible assistants who will help you with moving things. It is better if they are experienced movers who know how to properly pack fragile items, how to transport an antique cabinet and lower a piano from the 12th floor.
2) Real estate agent
Private realtors with extensive practice receive from 30 to 100 thousand rubles for each transaction. and higher. They do not have to share with the agency, and they put all the profits only in their own pocket.
The task of a real estate agent is to mediate between the seller and the buyer of housing (or the landlord and the tenant).
The components of success are communication skills, inventive advertising of your services, legal literacy, neat appearance, knowledge of sales psychology techniques.
3) Hairdresser services
In Moscow, a private hairdresser with an established client base earns from 150,000 rubles monthly. The average price tag for one haircut reaches 3-5 thousand rubles . If you simultaneously engage in the sale of cosmetics, income will increase by another 10-50%.
Working from home is convenient and profitable - you save on rent
Real example
My hairdresser Roman , from whom I have been getting my hair cut for many years, works in an ordinary apartment on the 1st floor in a new building, which he bought and uses as a hairdresser - he no longer pays rent to anyone. This was not always the case - he had previously rented commercial space in a busy part of the city and gained clients.
In addition to haircuts, he offers clients popular products from several chain companies, and recently installed a massage bed!
For beginning hairdressers, stylists, and makeup artists, the main problem is finding clients. The Internet simplifies the task: advertise your services on social networks, blogs, forums and gradually acquire a regular clientele.
4) Writing texts
I could write a separate article about this type of earnings, since I have been earning this way for many years in a row.
To become a sought-after copywriter, you need to be able to not only deftly put words into sentences, and sentences into phrases. It is necessary to study market conditions and learn how to position yourself correctly. If you are seriously thinking about becoming a copywriter, I recommend getting a profession and becoming a certified specialist.
The beauty of being a copywriter is that there are no limits to perfection. The amount of earnings depends only on your hard work and desire.
5) Repair of clothes and shoes
Repairing a good item is much cheaper than buying a new one. In times of crisis (and they are evident in modern Russia), the demand for the services of private workshops increases many times over.
Business requires minimal investment - professional tools, inexpensive equipment, consumables.
6) Opening a car wash in the garage
If your garage is located near busy highways, a car wash, small tire service or auto repair shop will be a very profitable investment. The premises will need to be supplied with water supply and a sewer drain installed.
7) Tutoring
Are you fluent in English? Can you play the ukulele? Do you teach physics and can prepare a student for the Unified State Exam? Take up tutoring. Any knowledge and skills are your capital. The average pay for a tutor is 500 rubles per hour.
The most difficult stage is the initial one. But if you find your first clients, the next ones will come based on recommendations. Old good word of mouth will work for you.

Growing vegetables and fruits
One greenhouse produces several harvests per year. In addition to selling fresh vegetables and fruits, additional income comes from freezing, processing and canning. People always need this product. The main thing is to find stable sales channels.
9) Earn money on your website
Your own website is an asset with unlimited potential. Sources of income: advertising of all types, affiliate programs, direct sales. Your earnings will depend on the successful promotion of the resource and its popularity among the inhabitants of the digital universe.
Website promotion in search engines is too broad a topic to talk about in vain. The only advice: use the services of professional agencies and resources involved in optimization and promotion.

The concept of a highly paid job
A well-paid job is an ambiguous concept, because each country has its own level of livelihood.
For example, in Germany and almost all European countries, $100 is not a lot of money, just a fraction of the subsistence level. And in Asian countries, and even in Russia, these are quite decent funds. A good job depends on the country in which you prefer to find a job, although many people do this and go to work in another country, because in their own country, even with a higher education, it is not easy to earn decent money. One way or another, prestigious and in-demand professions are highly paid.
It is important that the work is interesting, brings moral and material satisfaction, and has an average level of employment; nevertheless, everyone should have enough time for personal life and communication with family.
Work should bring the fruits of labor: career growth, learning new things, self-improvement. Many, for example, Russian men prefer to do nothing, but have a good income, not lower than what a boss in a leadership position receives.
Some of our citizens are quite successful in this, because today the scope for activity really has no boundaries. You can, for example, open your own business, hire workers and actually receive passive income. Gambling, lucky people succeed well in playing games on the Internet, also without doing practically anything.
Russians have long had the opinion that they simply cannot earn big money through honest work. If someone has a large salary, it means it was awarded dishonestly, through theft, or deception. Of course, people who think so are far mistaken.
Salesman
Without work experience, salespeople can earn high wages (not in department stores, of course). According to the portal, in Moscow the maximum salary of such specialists can reach 130 thousand rubles, in St. Petersburg - no more than one hundred thousand, in Yekaterinburg - 55 thousand, in Rostov-on-Don - about 50 thousand, in Nizhny Novgorod - 40 thousand. When hiring such employees—particularly in highly paid industries—employers evaluate not their work experience, but their ability to communicate with people.
“There is an opportunity to earn a high salary, but you need to try hard to find such vacancies. All professions that are related to sales hypothetically and practically assume such a possibility. This requires a combination of two or three factors - the presence of a market so that there is someone to sell, a premium motivation system in the company that allows such specialists to earn money, and the third is the abilities of the person himself and his ability to conduct sales. The story of sales is in many ways a trainable skill, but if there is no certain ability for this, the desire to do it, then there may well not be success. And the point here is not that the company is ready to pay high salaries to such employees; what is important here is that the person’s abilities and market conditions allow them to achieve certain results. In this case, this will be a highly paid profession,” says Natalya Danina, head of research for wages, compensation and benefits at Headhunter .
