Home businesses range from small one-person operations to larger ones with employees and equipment.  They may be operated solely online or completely off line in a portion of your home. Also, you might have the office in your home, but your service is performed at your customer/client’s house or business. 

Here are just thirteen possibilities, if you’re thinking of opening your own.  You also can use these as springboards and consider variations of them.

  1. Snow plowing (winter) and yard work (other seasons).
  2. Medical transcription
  3. Accounting and billing
  4. Editing or other writing related projects
  5. Skincare and beauty consultant
  6. Daycare
  7. Tutoring
  8. Housecleaning and home organizing
  9. Giving music lessons
  10. Plant rental or upkeep service
  11. Pet grooming and/or pet sitting
  12. Cake decorating for special occasions
  13. Dressmaking and alterations

Add to this list.  Share with us what you do!

    Thanks, Kelly, for pointing out the concern about #6…daycare. I think each state has its own regulations. As you say, they’re usually very strict. I’ll have to search, but I think someone inquired, in a comment at a previous post, where to find daycare regulation info and another commenter gave a web site.

    Thanks, Miranda, for visiting and giving your input. I’m planning to give an online list of possibilities, which could include freelance writing. As I read this one over, I realized most of these were for in home or physical businesses which could have online or blog possibilities.
