In the past it was believed that in order to start a home based business you needed to have a product / services and the money needed to get started.
This is still true to some extent but believe it or not you already have the product / service and it takes very little money to get going.
The Right Products or Service to Offer The best way to come up with a product or service is to get into something you are passionate about, have experience in doing, or always wanted to get into.
By making a list of those things, you have yourself a handful of potential viable home based business you can start.
The next step is to come up with ways to convert those ideas into a business.
Creating Your Home Business Creating a business online allows you to get out there and start something with very little money.
Based on the places I setup my websites, I can get a business going for about twenty dollars.
With that I can pay for a domain name and setup web hosting to host my website.
From there you can use free software, tools and services to get the rest done.
The only additional cost from there is the monthly ten dollars or so for hosting and the time it will takes to setup, manage and maintain your website.
Summary That is the easiest and cheapest way to start a home business.
You can launch a free blog and write articles about your interests earning money from ads.
Another option is to create an e-book and sell it as a digital product.
The third option is that you can write product reviews of items you are familiar with and send visitors to a site like Amazon where you earn a commission when someone decides to buy.
