"The Best Ways to Start a Business With Little Or No Start-Up Capital" by Alex Cadens

Virtually any grown up in the United States has flirted with the idea of starting a business, and that certainly does not come as a surprise, because after all, this is the land of opportunity no matter how deep in recession we might be. Certainly, regardless of your current status (you may or not have a job) I can guess that you have imagined a future free of bosses as well as financial worries.

But the fact is that achieving the goal of starting and running a business can be very hard if you choose to do so through the traditional business model, because this approach will usually involve putting a lot of money up front and a sometimes complicated planning process that would otherwise increase the risk of failure.

However, you can avoid all this hassle and still expect to have a sustainable and prof

itable business, because nowadays, with the today's technologically dominated environment, it has become quite easy to reach a large number of costumers with little work and a small budget, using only a computer and an internet connection.

And since any business you choose is only as successful as the amount of people you can reach, approaching the idea of a new business apart from the traditional business is certainly the way to go.

So, can you actually start a business with little or no start up capital?

Simple, you have to get yourself into the online business arena, which means focusing your efforts as an entrepreneur on internet based methods and strategies for revenue generation. This will allow you to execute your business right from your computer without the need special equipment, location or personnel.

There are many ways to start an online business thus gradually creating a significant stream of income. Among those, my personal favorites are internet marketing and forex trading.

Internet marketing on one hand requires little to no money to start and it is a business that you can easily scale up to any size you want by using the power of automation the internet provides. You will be doing exactly what any other business owner would do, only you will be spared the heavy expenses and the complicated business structure.

In this business you generate revenue by learning how to obtain the best placement within the search engines thus pulling traffic to your landing pages (which can be a blog, a website or a lens), so once you achieve this it will run pretty much on autopilot. Definitely one of the most cost effective ways of building a significant sream of income fast.

The other profitable way to start a business with a little up front cost is forex trading. As you may know, forex trading involves investing in the currency exchange market, so you will certainly need some money to start doing this as a business. However, given the profit potential of forex, you will need only a small amount of money to start, and from there you will be able to benefit from the compounding effect inherent to any capital investment.

If you educate yourself and put your hands on proven-to-work tools and resources, you will be able to start a successful online business with little or no capital within any of these to areas, with the potential for it to become your main source of income within a year or less.
