Profit-making business. The best and unusual business ideas from around the world

Taking into account the unstable economic situation, businesses that require not the largest investments and can quickly pay for themselves are becoming relevant. The top successful projects, the income of which is several times higher than the initial investment and the peak of demand for which will be in 2017, was prepared by Ekaterina Soyak, general manager EMTG company.

1. Fixed price stores

During a crisis, such a business is beneficial, first of all, for entrepreneurs - with a fixed price for a product in a purchasing store, it usually costs no more than 10 rubles. Therefore, from one unit of goods you can get at least 500% revenue. An excellent example in this direction is the domestic chain of one-price stores Fix-Price. The company now operates more than 2,000 retail outlets throughout Russia, of which about 250 are open as franchises and are actively entering neighboring markets. Over the past 5 years, the number of fixed price stores in our country has increased by 1000%.

The route is actively developing in the domestic passenger transportation market and is in greatest demand in Moscow, which accounts for up to 65% of all orders. These companies traditionally do not advertise their reports, but informed sources indicate that in the capital region the turnover of taxi aggregators is 20 billion rubles. per month, while in Western countries they suffer billions of losses. Over the next two or three years, this business will remain promising in Russia, especially in Russian regions, where such concepts do not yet occupy leading positions, but have enormous potential for development.

Also becoming a very popular trend today are businesses that deliver ready-made food to your home - food constructors that allow you not only to eat a ready-made dish, but to prepare it yourself from the ingredients provided. This is a global trend. According to some estimates, by 2020 the turnover of this market will grow to $10 billion per year. Again, for now this service is gaining popularity in the capital, but over the next 2-3 years it will bring enormous profits to those who begin to develop this business in Russian cities with a population of over a million.

4. Catering franchises

Today, this is the only segment in public catering that demonstrates stable growth against the backdrop of the anemic state of the domestic economy. When located in locations with a large concentration of potential customers, the return on business if done correctly organized process may be only 3–4 months. In 2017, not only restaurants will benefit, but also casual coffee shops, cafes offering coffee to go, and, of course, sports bars. This is also due to the upcoming 2018 FIFA World Cup.

Opening a catering outlet under a franchise will bring income to the owner even after the end of the World Cup. Fast foods remain the most profitable; they are always in trend, since such enterprises do not require large investments, their products are available to the average consumer, who is now focused on an average bill of 500 rubles. All this guarantees stable profits for the owners.

5. Self-service car washes

Self-service car washes are becoming popular among car owners. About three dozen such car washes have already been opened in Moscow. Since 2014, this service has been in increasing demand, and manufacturers of equipment for such points can make good money. For example, to open contactless car wash, you need to invest 13–15 million rubles, while the investment will pay off on average in 1.5–2 years, and the profit will be more than 10 million per year. That is, the profitability of the business area is 70%, which is very good.

6. Hotel business and consumer services enterprises

On the eve of the 18 World Cup, in the regions where it is being held, 2-3 star economy class hotels, small motels and various enterprises household services - dry cleaning, mini-atelier, etc. Also, against the backdrop of sporting events, fitness clubs, children's sections and other initiatives to maintain athletic shape will be in demand there. The fastest and convenient way organize this business in 1.5 years - open it as a franchise. There is now a demand for such facilities in every Russian region, without exception, including Moscow. Russia has set a course for the development of mass domestic tourism, so investments made in hotels and dry cleaners will pay off quickly.

Over the past two years, they have experienced explosive development in the Russian entertainment market. The idea itself came from Asia, but the Russians have already overtaken their founders and occupy leading positions in this area. Russian businessmen have been selling their quest franchises abroad for several years now, where they are incredibly popular. Now in Moscow alone there are about 170 quest industry companies offering approximately 500 scenarios. There are 60 companies and almost 200 outlets in St. Petersburg.

Turnover Russian companies is estimated at 20 billion rubles. per year. Despite the apparent dominance of quests, this industry is very dynamic - in Moscow alone, dozens of new facilities are opened every month, designed for an average of 2000–3000 visits. Investments in opening one room, depending on the demands of the public, can reach 50 million rubles, but average price- 10 million rubles (in Moscow) and 2–3 million in the regions. In the next two to three years, this business as a whole in Russia and the CIS will only gain momentum.

The bad economic situation in the country is not a reason to hang your nose and lose heart. There are many examples of large companies starting their journey at the most unfavorable time for business. A crisis is a time of great opportunity, a time of real “cleansing”. Weak entrepreneurs who did not think about business development leave the market, making room for new players.

Today we will look at 11 of the most profitable and “unkillable” business ideas that work great and bring profit to the owner, despite the crisis in the economy.

Lotteries and bookmakers

When there is a crisis, people begin to believe in luck more. The state of low income and lack of work forces people to make adventurous decisions and literally throw the remaining money down the drain. Therefore, any business related to the sale of lotteries, bookmakers, auctions - all of this works with excess profits. To organize a business on sports betting, it is not at all necessary to have a lot of capital and go through a strict registration and licensing procedure. Today, many large bookmakers are developing their own franchise networks in Russia and the CIS. Therefore, for a symbolic fee of 200 - 350 thousand rubles. you can join the network and open a betting office in your city. The only significant pitfall is strict regulation by the state. Here you can’t guess when the government will decide to close the “shop” by issuing another law. I think everyone remembers what happened to gambling clubs that brought hundreds of percent of profits to their owners.

Pharmacy business

The pharmacy business, despite the oversaturation of the market, shows high profitability during an unstable economic situation. In our city, many well-known pharmacy chains have only increased the number of retail outlets over the past couple of years. The reason is clear - people are starting to get sick more because of stress and frustration (they were fired from their jobs, their salaries were lowered, they are afraid of layoffs). The number of people with heart problems, diabetes, digestive disorders, etc. is growing. Accordingly, trips to the pharmacy are becoming more frequent. Investing in a pharmacy business can be intimidating. However, it is not at all necessary to open a large store. At the start, you can limit yourself to a small pharmacy kiosk. Another option is to open as a franchise.

Bakery products

Food is an eternal topic. It has long been known that when people's incomes decrease, they switch to cheaper food. The amount in the diet increases bakery products: bread, pies, rolls, donuts, cookies. I noticed that in our city the number of kiosks selling bread and flour products has increased significantly. In the place where I buy bread, instead of one kiosk, there are now four. And, you know, there’s enough for everyone. After work, you have to stand in line to buy bread.

How much money does it take to open a bread kiosk?

To open a bread kiosk you will need to invest approximately 300 - 500 thousand rubles, or even less. It is not necessary to rent or buy a permanent structure. You can, for example, purchase a mobile trailer (Kupava) and arrange outbound trading by obtaining permission from the local administration. There is less paperwork, and you can earn money almost immediately. You can purchase goods from local bakeries or open your own production. True, this is a completely different investment.

Auto repair shop, service station

Like products, car repair is a “hard-to-kill topic.” Despite the crisis, there are more and more cars, and those that exist are getting old and breaking down more often. In our city there are service stations and auto repair shops at every turn. At the same time, everything works successfully, and you can only get in by appointment. I haven't heard of anyone closing or leaving the market. Tire fitting, body repair, auto electrics - all this is relevant. And at the same time, these ideas do not require large initial capital. You can start even in a “garage” environment. The main difficulty is to find good craftsmen. Well, if you know how to work with equipment yourself, you’ll have the flag in your hands.

Anti-crisis car wash

Self-service car washes - new look services in the automotive field. The idea came to us from the West, but before the crisis it did not develop very much. Now that people are thinking more about saving, such services will flourish. Many people will prefer to wash their car themselves, since the savings are almost double (about 150 rubles instead of 300 rubles). Read business forums, many people there talk about good prospects for self-service car washes. Some people post photo reports showing a queue for such a car wash.

How much money do you need to invest to open a self-service car wash?

The only disadvantage of this idea is the high investment required to start a business. To open even a small car wash with three bays, with all approvals, you will have to pay at least 1.5 million rubles. Not everyone has that kind of money, especially during a crisis.

Microfinance organization

According to some data, over the past three years the demand for microloans up to 30,000 rubles. increased threefold. There are a number of reasons for this, including those related to the economic situation in the country. Interest rates on loans from large banks have increased since they were received falsely. While a microloan can be obtained without leaving home, without certificates or proof of income.

How much money do you need to invest to open microloans?

To open your own microfinance organization it is enough to invest no more than 500 - 1000 thousand rubles. And the investment pays off quickly. Judge for yourself. Loans are issued at an average interest rate of 2% per day.

How much can you earn with microloans?

That is, taking a loan of 30,000 rubles. in a month the client will have to return 48,000 rubles. Profit 18,000 rubles! It is clear that not all clients are conscientious. But, as practice shows, only 15% do not repay the debt. At the same time, debts can always be sold to collectors. In any case, the company remains in good profit.

Export of goods abroad

During the period of an “expensive” dollar, a business selling certain types of goods abroad is quite profitable. For example, recently our citizens have begun to actively sell honey and other food products to China. Eat good news for traders of various small items on the Internet: ebay is coordinating simplified rules for the export of goods from Russia to the USA and Europe with customs and Russian post. That is, selling felt boots, hats and handicrafts to the “bourgeoisie” will be many times more profitable. The only danger is that someday oil will rise, the ruble will rise in price, which will reduce the export benefits of some goods.

Funeral services

Business on rendering funeral services does not depend in any way on the crisis phenomena in the country. People can save on expensive purchases, entertainment, vacations, and food, but they will not refuse to spend on a decent burial. At any time of the year, the demand for funeral services remains high. Oddly enough, but what worse times, the higher the profit in this area. It is not necessary to open a funeral service bureau with all the difficulties of conducting this activity. According to some data, more than 80% of funeral companies are not manufacturers. That is, they buy the same coffins from manufacturers or resellers. In this case, a great idea would be to organize own production coffins For example, from fiberboard using the hot molding method. The entrance ticket to such a business is 300,000 rubles, and the number of personnel is only 4 people. Production can be organized even outdoors. There are companies that can supply ready-made blanks from which coffins will be put together. The markup on products is 100%.

Economy class hair salon

Hairdressing services are always relevant. Well, who can refuse a haircut or hairstyle, except perhaps a very poor person. Therefore, we can say with confidence that such a business is not subject to crisis. However, it is precisely the crisis that may affect elite hairdressing and beauty salons. But economy class hair salons, where for only 150 - 200 rubles. you can get a high-quality haircut - they will be in high demand. Let it not be over profitable business, but the idea is definitely not a failure and will work regardless of the situation in the country.

Cinema

Although the entertainment industry is experiencing better times, such mass budget entertainment as watching films in cinemas, on the contrary, is in good demand. People are tired of gray everyday life, problems at work, negative news and want to get something magical for the soul. And they find this peace in the movies. A budget 3-D cinema is a good business idea in a crisis. Such activities are not subject to licensing. You just need to purchase permission to rent films. Rental companies, as a rule, work on a 50/50 basis. That is, you keep 50% of the box office receipts for yourself, and give the rest to the license holder.

Step-by-step plan for opening a small cinema

Large investments are not required to start a business. You can open a very small cinema for 12 spectators. The required room area is only 18 square meters. m. In fact, a cinema can be opened in apartment conditions (on the first floors of apartment buildings residential buildings). If at least 50 people visit such a cinema every day, and each leaves 300 rubles, then the monthly revenue will be 450,000 rubles. Of this amount, half will go to pay for film rental, approximately 10% for rent, 15% for labor and 5% for other expenses.

How much can you earn by opening a small cinema?

That is, the net profit will be approximately 90 - 100 thousand rubles. per month. This is not a bad amount, considering that the cost of opening a mini-cinema with 12 seats does not exceed 1 million rubles. Moreover, you can earn money not only from entrance tickets, but also from the sale of strong drinks, popcorn, chips, etc. I would also like to mention an idea related to the cinema - opening a cinema cafe. In such an establishment you can not only show movies, but also give the opportunity to play video games, smoke hookah, play board games, sing karaoke. Payment, however, is not for a specific service, but for the duration of your stay in the establishment. On average, it is 100 rubles. per hour per person.

Driving school

Another business that is not afraid of crisis and competition is driving schools. No matter how bad the income is, the flow of young people in need of driver's license doesn't run out. Moreover, if 15 - 20 years ago, for the most part, only men went to training, today exactly half of future drivers are women. Naturally, this only increased the number of clients for existing driving schools. Moreover, due to innovations in the law, the minimum period of training in driving schools has increased, which has resulted in an increase in prices. Today, to obtain a license you will need to spend at least 50,000 rubles. only for training (theory and practice). This is a lot of money. It turns out that from a small group of 20 people you can earn 1,000,000 rubles! How many people want to study in your city? These are thousands of people.

Step-by-step plan for opening a driving school

To open a driving school, you will need to rent premises, accreditation with the traffic police and a staff of instructors (with whom you can negotiate for a percentage). A room with an area of ​​35 - 50 square meters is suitable as a student classroom. m. There is even an option to open an online driving school. You can learn theory remotely, and practical exercises will be conducted by licensed driving schools in a specific region (you can negotiate with them for a certain percentage). This will allow you to save on renting premises and setting up a student classroom. In fact, a business can be started from scratch. The main thing is to properly advertise the service and find good performers (teachers and instructors). There are companies that offer to open an online driving school as a franchise. But you can invest not only in business or start your own business. Even during a crisis, it is possible to invest money in real estate or cars, while receiving passive income. You can learn what to invest money in and how to do it by reading new book Territories of Investment. Do you want to establish a stable cash flow but don't know how? You have the opportunity to become a completely financially independent person in a few years. Find out how to invest money wisely and take action.

Any aspiring entrepreneur thinks about how to optimize the income received from running their own business. The question of which areas and areas of business are the most promising and generate income in the shortest possible time with minimal investment always remains on the agenda. After all, no one wants to invest money and waste precious time on a project that is obviously a failure.

Consultants at trainings assure entrepreneurs that any project can be made profitable. But the risks can be significantly reduced if you carefully analyze the needs of the target audience, as well as think through the strategy and calculate the business plan of the intended enterprise.

What you need to know before starting a business

Factors to consider when business planning:

• First you need to draw up a plan of expenses that the entrepreneur’s initial capital should cover.
• The competitive factor must be taken into account. The smaller the settlement, the correspondingly lower the competition and the wider the field for realizing your ideas. But you also need to take into account that the demands of the target audience may naturally be lower in a small city, as well as sales volumes.
• Of course, meeting people's basic needs can be a good business idea for an aspiring entrepreneur. This includes the following areas: medicine, food and household goods, clothing industry and its distribution points. Therefore, opening pharmacies, food, hardware or clothing stores, and hairdressers is a win-win option. Especially in high traffic areas.
• It is better to rely on business ideas and areas of their implementation that the entrepreneur is well versed in.

In order to decide which business is the most profitable, it is necessary to highlight factors determining its “profitability”:

• The speed of return of money plays an important role, because it is more profitable when income from sales is returned as soon as possible from the moment of investment.
• A profitable business should focus on an area in which there is great demand from consumers.
• Profitability, that is, income should increase in parallel with the amount of goods or services sold.
• The low price at which raw materials are purchased increases the profitability of the business.
• Return on assets shows how well the investments were made and whether they are repaid by the profits received.

Small business

To organize a small business you will need minimal labor and financial investments. You can gather a small group of people you know and start renovating, cleaning apartments, or open a budget fast food restaurant, cafe or kiosk selling inexpensive goods, such as hot dogs or soft drinks.

Not so long ago, the most popular business was network marketing, the principle of which was the sale of goods directly from hand to hand without renting premises. Examples of such successful projects are Oriflame or the Forex exchange.

The most promising areas of business

Let's take a closer look at the most profitable areas of business where you can implement a successful business project.

• Satisfying the basic needs of people has already been listed above: food, medicine, clothing.
• An important area in which there is a high demand covers the computer industry and the sale of technology. Installation and repair of computers, sale of equipment are always in demand.
• Plumbing: sinks, bathtubs, toilets. Services for their repair, sale and installation are highly valued in Russia.
• Design services as the most profitable business. People love to be surrounded by things that are not only functional, but also beautifully designed. In demand: logo development, advertising design, PR specialist services.
• Real estate services for the purchase and sale of real estate. The need for housing is also included in the list of basic human needs according to Maslow’s pyramid.
• Another important need is the desire to feel safe. Therefore, alarm installation services and security companies are popular.
• Sales of cars, their repair and maintenance, replacement of spare parts - all this is one of the most profitable business areas. A means of transportation is an important attribute of the life of a Russian in a country with large distances between settlements.
• Education, opening private universities, conducting trainings. Any field of activity has a need for well-trained specialists.
• Brokerage. Stock markets have skyrocketed in popularity in the last decade. An example is the Forex exchange, whose turnover is about 4.7 trillion. American dollars. The profits go to brokers, banks and market makers, that is, the people who organized the exchange, while clients basically lose their money.

Pros and cons of the tourism business. What you need to know to open your own travel agency.

• One of the most profitable types of business in Russia has become the sale of alcohol and tobacco products.
• Vending business. It only requires the cost of purchasing and installing machines that sell coffee or top up phone bills. Does not require large investments and efforts, you only need to change it occasionally consumables. Brings passive income.
• Promising areas of business include the development of high technologies, PC maintenance, and programming. Today, Internet business is also actively gaining momentum and is rightfully included in the TOP of the most promising business areas.
• The construction of small forms of real estate remains promising. Corruption in this segment is lower than in others. The demand for spacious housing built according to European standards in Russia is currently very high.

It is worth taking a closer look at online business as the most relevant business in the age of high technology. E-commerce is a type of small business that operates financial and trade flows via the Internet. This type entrepreneurship guarantees:

• the ability to quickly and dynamically exchange information;
• perform email marketing;
• engage in trading on the Internet;
• convert electronic currency into rubles;
• transfer large sums of money in electronic monetary units;
• use Internet banking services;
• insure your online business;

You also need to take into account the circumstances and time of year. For example, in the summer you can make good money selling air conditioners, and in the winter – heating systems.

The simplest business

Simple types of business are usually not very profitable. These include the following.

• Growing and selling food. Many people have summer cottages where they grow vegetables: cucumbers, potatoes, tomatoes, etc. Further, food products can be sold on the open market, because they will always be in price.
• If you learn how to prepare exclusive dishes, you can sell them through an online store, arrange for the supply of your goods to restaurants or as business lunches in offices.
• If a person knows how to handle children, then you can organize a private kindergarten right at home or in a special room, over time recruit teachers and then receive income from your parents.

In addition to the last point, the sale of children's toys should also be added. Nowadays, hand-made products, made by hand using only environmentally friendly materials, are especially popular. pure materials. An example is the business of selling paper knitters.

A new, unique and promising franchise. By purchasing it for 59 thousand rubles, the franchisee will have great opportunity earn big money, and also devote yourself to doing interesting and promising things.

Paperbacks are unique, funny and very cute dolls. They are made from completely safe and very soft material. Children, especially girls, adore these dolls. Paper bags combine simplicity, usefulness and unique attractiveness.

Not every toy can be as simple and interesting as Paper Ties. This ensures great consumer interest in this product, and, consequently, high profits for the franchise owner.

The most unprofitable areas of business, or how to protect yourself from bankruptcy

Perhaps, the sale of book products is becoming an unprofitable area of ​​activity in the era of popularization of the Internet. Of course, there is a need for educational book materials, but almost any other type of book product can be downloaded on the Internet. Therefore, it is more profitable to open an online bookstore, as the owner of the Amazon website did, quickly becoming one of the richest people in the world.

Also, with the increase in computerization and the spread of personal computers, computer clubs are losing their popularity.

But if the business becomes unprofitable, then you can try to fix this by paying attention to the following factors.

• Pay attention to a thorough check of cash expenses and cutting down unnecessary expenses.

Private kindergarten

If you want to organize a profitable small business in Russia, open a private kindergarten. In our country there are already many more such institutions than state-owned ones. The monthly fee for a child to attend kindergarten is 10–20 thousand rubles. Accordingly, a group of 30 children will bring 300–600 thousand rubles. If you subtract the costs of food, staff salaries and premises rental, approximately 150–300 thousand rubles will remain net profit. In addition, parents pay down payment 25–30 thousand rubles. Some private preschool institutions charge this fee annually.

This business has a quick payback. However, it does not require large financial investments. At the start, you will need a certain amount to purchase furniture, toys and obtain permits.

Beginners can organize a small fur farm at home, since chinchillas do not require special conditions content and do not highlight any unpleasant odors. Since these are herbivores, breeding them does not require a large starting capital. The profitability of an average fur farm for breeding chinchillas can reach 300%.

The finished products are sold in bulk to intermediaries, who buy the fur and resell it at auctions to large enterprises specializing in sewing fur products. For one skin you can earn 40–60 dollars.
