LIST OF SMALL BUSINESSES WITH LITTLE OR NO START-UP CAPITAL

It is becoming increasingly difficult to make ends meet with just one income source. Thus more and more people are investigating the possibilities of starting their own extra income home business. Most of these part time endeavors are started and operated from the comfort of their home.

Before you start: the first thing you must do however is some basic market research. Find out for yourself, first-hand, just how many people will be interested in your proposed products or services, and would be willing to stand in line and pay money for it.

This is known as defining your market and identifying your prospective customers. If after checking around telling people about your ideas, with a whole lot of people over a period between 1 – 3 weeks, you get the idea that these people would be paying customers; your next effort should be directly towards the “detailing” of your business plan.

HOW TO BECOME A MILLIONAIRE FROM NYLON/PLASTIC/POLYTHENE RECYCLING BUSINESS

Dollar scarcity: Manufacturers turn to local raw materials….The Punch News

INTRODUCTION

Wastes ordinarily refers to everything that no longer has a use or purpose and needs to be disposed of, however, according to The U.S Environmental Protection Agency, it defines solid waste as "any garbage or refuse, sludge from a wastewater treatment plant, water supply treatment plant, or air pollution control facility and other discarded material, including solid, liquid, semi-solid, or contained gaseous material resulting from industrial, commercial, mining, and agricultural operations, and from community activities." Based on this definition, examples of solid waste generated by veterinary clinics include, but aren't limited to: animal tissues, fluids and carcasses; animal waste; chemicals used in laboratory, cleaning or radiographic procedures; syringes and other medical supply waste; some medications, such as epinephrine and nitroglycerin; chemotherapy agents; mercury from thermometers; light bulbs and batteries; pesticides; paint and other solvents; and more. While wealth according to www.businessdictionary.com generally refers to General Tangible or intangible thing that makes a person, family, or group better off.

Lump Waste

Wastes generally have been a major environmental menace in many parts of the world, majority of the wastes generated by the plastics and allied materials are non-biodegradable unlike wastes from woods, papers, water, human excretions, foods etc. Apparently, under-developed and developing economies bears the greatest burden of waste hazards, some of these countries are seen as dumping grounds for all classification of wastes such as e-waste, agricultural waste, bio-waste, industrial waste, human waste and all kinds of waste imaginable. In Nigeria today, there is hardly any state of the federation not faced with the challenge of nylon and plastic waste management.

The Lagos state government through LAWMA has taken the bold step by establishing various waste plants across the geo-political zones of the state, we have such plant at Adeniji-Adele on the Island, we have at Olusosun dump site at Oregun, and there is waste transfer plant at Igando on LASU-Isheri road, Waste loading and Transfer at Oba Ogunji road Agege and others in different locations.

 
Many things should be taken into consideration when starting plastic/polythene/nylon recycling business.

The most common questions are:

- Is this a thermoplastic?
- Which one?
- Is it only one kind of plastic?
- If more than one, are they compatible?
- Is this font of scraps constant and reliable?
- How much this scrap costs?
- Which is the market for the finished product?
- How much can I sell the finished product for?

Recycling Machine

Unfortunately, administrators and stakeholders at all levels of governance in Nigeria are today still confronted with the burden of Nylon and plastic wastes management, used nylon shopping bags, pure-water sachets and pet bottles from different product brands, this environmental menace is a common eye-sour on our roads, drainages, streets and work areas causing hazards in terms of pollution, flooding, impeding free flow of water channels and ultimately aiding the spread of communicable diseases via stagnated water impurities. As a result of these environmental challenges,

How To Start Your Own PROFITABLE Before The End Of Year 2016?

I have been away for some time because I got engaged with some task to supervise and manage NEW BUSINESS SET-UP ideas I sold to some clients in the course of writing articles about small business and entrepreneurship prospects. 2016 has been a year of mixed blessings as I will write about the challenges and successes I attained in the preceding year as we gravitate towards the end of year 2016, I will Endeavor to share some of the business ideas I tried, those that failed and the ones that brought reasonable income.

I hope there will be enough time for me to write more articles before the end of 2016 as I have a whole lot of consultancy services in waiting already and this might perhaps required me travelling out of Lagos for some period of time, however, I will try as much as possible to give my very best as event unfolds.

There are many reasons for wanting to start your own business, and most of us get to this point in life where being your own boss is the next best decision available.  Irrespective of the motive behind such a move, one of the following reasons should be the motivating factor for desiring to be your own boss.

Ø Freedom from daily routine.

Ø Doing what I want when I want.

Ø Improve my living standard.

Ø I want creative freedom.

Ø I want to fully use my skills, knowledge and education.

Ø I have a product/idea/service that people need.

Ø I’ll have more time with the family.

Ø I won’t have a dress code.

Ø There are good tax breaks for business owners.

Ø I want to be my own boss.

Ø I want to make the decisions.

Though, there are many challenges associated with floating an entrepreneurial venture but the fulfillment inherent in self-employment far outweighs the challenges. I know about myself and many old colleagues that had left the corporate 9-5 salary jobs for personal businesses and have found fulfillment afterwards. Perhaps, 2016 financial and economic year could be the turning point you have ever been dreaming about, why don’t you take the bull by the horn and start a small business even though you start operating from home.
