What is the most profitable business you could start with only $5,000?
I started a business that grossed about US$300,000 some years ago with about US$3,000. I was traveling internationally quite a bit back then and came across a unique hand-crafted product that appealed to many in the gift and ethnic gift market.With a suitcase of product I spent $2500 on a trade show stall and about $500 on gas/hotel/food to attend the show. I didn't have a fancy booth and I lit my product with a few clip on lights that I had spray painted black. I also used black spray paint on cardboard that served as my displays. It may sound tacky, but it actually looked pretty nice and it helped my items stand out.So I loaded up my wares in my SUV and drove myself to the trade show. I booked a cheap motel that had free parking. I ate at burger places. I worked the two-day show by myself and made sure I was always standing and showing my goods while sharing the story of how my items were made, where they came from and what an impact the items had on the local community that made them. Since I didn't have any inventory besides what I had on display, I asked buyers to select a shipping date set for a future time that would allow me to acquire, label, pack and ship the product. I pre-booked sales of just under $30k at the show!With my pre bookings I borrowed another $5000 from family to put toward merchandise and I used credit cards for shipping materials (boxes, labels, scale, etc.) and setup shop in my garage.Within about a month I had a Fedex truck picking up from my home on a daily basis. I also put together a simply, but attractive and informative website on my own and followed up on every lead that I acquired from my initial trade show. Reorders started coming in, new orders from my follow through trickled in and before I knew it I had a real business that I was running out of my home.
