22 voted. Grade: 4,95 out of 5)

One of the large personnel portals conducted a survey of its users on what they think about the opportunity to open their own business. It turned out that only 2% of respondents did not have such a thought. More than half think about it periodically, 23% tried to bring the idea to life, but were unsuccessful, and only 9% actually developed their business.

To the question, “What stops you from starting your own business?” - respondents answered as expected:

• lack of start-up capital;
• lack of understanding of business processes;
• lack of a working idea that is guaranteed to generate profit;
• high taxes, bureaucratic difficulties, problems with government agencies;
• unwillingness to take risks associated with doing business.

Indeed, owning your own business is a risk. Even in law entrepreneurial activity called risky because when maintaining it, you can not only lose your investments, but also acquire debt to the state, employees and partners. Working for someone else in this regard looks like a much more stable undertaking. This stability alone is the price for the added value you create for your employer, and it is often much higher than you are compensated in salary.

It’s true that you can leave your own business with a minus, so the question arises - is it possible to start a business without quitting? It is possible, moreover, according to the Association of Young Entrepreneurs of Russia, about 40% of business owners do just that - they combine paid work and running their own business.

Administrative issues when combining work and business

First, let’s figure out whether the law allows you to combine work and your own business. Frequently asked questions aspiring businessmen:

• Is it possible to open an LLC while working officially?
• Is it possible to open an individual entrepreneur if you are officially employed;
• Is it possible to work in a government agency and have your own business?

We answer - in most cases the law does not establish prohibitions on such a combination. You are not required to inform your employer about starting your own business. But there is an exception - if at your main job you are a manager, then when opening your own LLC, in which you intend to work yourself, you need to obtain the consent of the owner of the employing organization (Article 276 of the Labor Code of the Russian Federation). In addition, your employment contract may prohibit you from running your own business.

As for working in government agencies, there is a clear ban on own business for civil servants, military personnel, judges, and police officers. Other employees of government agencies cannot start their own business only if they fall under the restrictions established by Decree of the Government of the Russian Federation of August 21, 2012 No. 841.

Thus, or LLC. The opposite is also true - the founder of an LLC or a person registered as an individual entrepreneur can work for hired work, if such a need arises.

How does the individual entrepreneur format differ from organizing a business in the form of a company? We examined this issue in great detail in the article “”? Here we present only the most important differences.

Features of IP	LLC Features
Full liability for the obligations of the individual entrepreneur, including property acquired before state registration or not used in business	Responsibility within authorized capital LLC, but the founder may be held vicariously liable if it is proven that his actions or inaction led to the bankruptcy of the company
Simple registration, state fee - 800 rubles, pFast and easy tax deregistration	More documents to submit to the Federal Tax Service, state duty - 4,000 rubles, liquidation of an LLC is long and complicated
It’s easy to manage money received from business activities	You can only receive income in the form of dividends and salaries if you work for your company employment contract

To help you for self-study We have prepared two articles for business registration documents:

And a few words about business taxes. The state allows small businesses to choose the minimum possible tax burden. For example, the tax rate on USN Income two times lower than the salary income tax rate. A individual entrepreneurs, meeting the conditions for providing tax holidays, are generally exempt from paying tax for two years after registration. There is no need to unfoundedly believe that taxes in Russia are prohibitive for business; see for yourself using examples of calculations that it is possible to very noticeably reduce payments to the budget using legal methods.

1. 
   Don't give up on your main job. Combining work and business is not a reason to start treating your work responsibilities worse. Your current employer is a guarantee of your financial stability, a kind of sponsor of your business experiments, even if he doesn’t know about it. Be grateful for that and continue to do well what you are paid to do.
   
2. Learn to plan your time. Do you feel like you have absolutely no free time for... own business? What if you search? Can you honestly confirm that you work at a stressful pace around the clock, not counting time for sleep? If you devote 2 hours to your business on weekdays and 5 hours on weekends, then you will get 80 hours a month, and that’s two full working weeks! Learn the basics of time management, keep track of time, write down every day what you did to develop your business.
   
3. Learn to communicate. In business, what often succeeds is not the one who is smarter or can offer a unique product or service, but the one who knows how to convey value to the consumer. To do this, you need to be able to communicate - advertise your business, negotiate with partners, convince clients and customers, and provide quality service. No sales experience - start by selling something on Avito. You have never been an intermediary - go to any real estate office and become a rental agent, at least for a week. If you know how to do something with your own hands, advertise your services. Your goal is not to start working at a second job after the main one, but in practice to independently integrate into the chain of commodity-money relations. Receive at least a one-time small amount not from the accounting department of your organization, but from a real buyer or client.
   
4. Develop an entrepreneurial mindset. If you have spent your entire adult life only completing tasks set by others (a teacher at school, a lecturer at a university, a boss at work), then it is quite difficult to stop waiting for someone’s instructions and start acting on your own. Study the experiences of successful entrepreneurs, there is no shortage of such information now. Join some business community, communicate on forums and groups on social networks. Such an environment really changes your consciousness. Using someone else's example, you will understand what difficulties you will have to face when running a business, and with what tenacity others move towards their goal. And not only that - you can spy on a good business idea and see other people's success stories. And this is very motivating!
   
5. Look for your business idea. There are hundreds and thousands of business ideas, but they can all be divided into three groups: services, trade, production. An idea related to the provision of services will require the least startup costs, but the successful completion of a trade transaction can immediately bring you a large sum. If your choice is production, then look for a unique product that has a high final value, or one that can be sold at a high margin.
   Choose ideas that look simple and clear to you. It is not at all necessary that they be related to your profession. This could be your hobby or an area in which you yourself, as a consumer, have felt a shortage of supply. For example, one of the visitors to the passport office encountered difficulties filling out forms and saw that there were many people like him. The result is an office for automated document filling opened in a nearby building.

   As a user you can get our books on the development of different business areas: retail store, beauty salon, wholesale, cafe. They are preparing to publish a book on opening a law firm and an online store.

6. Explore your business idea from the inside out. It's great if you can practically study the entire process that leads to satisfying the consumer's needs and making money. If you want to open a cafe, get a job as a waiter at such a place for the weekend. A taxi service is attractive - work for some time in someone’s company on a flexible schedule. Good option- study the franchisee’s proposals, even if not in the chosen field, but in a related field. Ask all the questions that interest you, ask for examples of calculations of real business cases.
   Study business plans for your idea; they can be found in the public domain or for little money on the Internet. Even if they do not seem convincing to you, the description of business processes will still bring you closer to understanding what and how you should do. If a business in the chosen direction operates in your city, become its client, just evaluate the situation not from the point of view of consumer satisfaction, but how you can make money from it.
   
7. Calculate how much money you need to implement your business idea. If you don't start your own business just because you don't have start-up capital, then think, maybe this is just an excuse? Do you know exactly, in real prices, how much money you need? Are you sure that without business experience you can start a business that requires serious expenses? Maybe we should put this super-idea aside for the future, and try to earn more modest amounts first? Remember that starting a business with borrowed money or your last money is very, very risky!
   Did you know that if you have about half of the required amount, then you have a chance to receive up to 500 thousand rubles from the state for business development? Yes, for this you need to draw up a business plan and defend its viability before the commission, but if you are sure that the only thing you need to realize your idea is money, then you can be convincing.
   
8. Minimize opening costs. Review your cost estimate again and think about where you can save money. Can’t manage without equipment, transport, industrial real estate? Consider the option of renting; do not try to immediately acquire everything you need for your business. Do you think that you can only sell goods that you purchased with your own money? This is not so - you can agree with the manufacturer on a commodity loan or integrate into the wholesale commodity chain as a sales agent.
   Simply cutting down organizational expenses is enough. Believe me, most startups work fine without an office, a secretary, or employees. You need to hire workers only when you can’t do without it - a salesperson in a store, for example. An employer's obligations under an employment contract are quite complex. It is necessary not only to pay wages twice a month and transfer for the employee insurance premiums, but also submit reports for them. Dismissing such an employee without his consent is also not easy. But many of the functions necessary to run your business can be entrusted to freelancers or remote workers. To do this, it is enough to conclude with them.
   Another option is outsourcing services. You do not need to hire an accountant, lawyer, sales agent, driver, courier, telephone operator and many other specialists. Employees of specialized services can handle this very well, and you can order only the required amount of services from them. Various online services can also help you, for example, online accounting from and.
   
9. Establish strict financial discipline for yourself. Sooner or later, your business will begin to take up more and more of your time, and you will have to quit your job. Avoid all unnecessary expenses for a while. Create a financial safety net - an amount sufficient to provide necessary expenses for at least six months. Don’t spend money on yourself that starts coming from your business; continue to invest it in your business until you realize that you can safely withdraw a certain monthly amount.
   
10. Be prepared for failure. Even your first business can succeed, but, more often than not, successful start you need to make several attempts. How many of them will you need in your case? Only you can answer this, based on your own business experience. And remember, the most offensive thing is to understand after working hard for someone for 30-40 years that you didn’t even try to truly change your life, although there were opportunities for this.

Small-scale intermediary activity with high turnover

Tired of working for his uncle, someone first becomes an intermediary and slowly, from scratch, begins to lay the foundation of his brainchild. For example, he stupidly glues or places advertisements in the newspaper for two parties, for example, for apartment renovation. And brings the customer together with the repair team. Having your own percentage.

No money? And they are not needed. If only for the purchase of a newspaper with advertisements and coupons for free submission of these same advertisements. Not everyone still uses the Internet.

Although it’s simple, it’s its own craft. Time will tell how to develop further. Not without the fact that at first you will have to spend the little money you earn on developing the process, on expanding it. And only then receive net profit.

It is possible that over time this small business of its own will grow into a powerful Internet project for repairs in various regions of Russia, like the “Repairman” website, for example.

Become an employee in a competitor's company and... learn from experience

Someone gets a job in private company, delves into the intricacies of production, studies down to the smallest detail how to organize his business, so that later he can take on something similar, but his own. The service will help you study the state of affairs of your competitors and get your bearings, so to speak.

I heard about a teacher who realized that teaching children is necessary and important, but this is not his calling. Although he is a certified teacher. I decided to thoroughly retrain. To begin with, I got a job at a company selling paint and varnish coatings to see the whole process from the inside and understand how to start my own business from scratch and make it profitable. And today it supplies the entire region with these materials. Figure out your income yourself. This is also a completely acceptable option for owning your own business.

One acquaintance worked as a manager in a salon that supplied spare parts for cars. Today it already has a network of its own similar stores and is a very profitable business.

The same picture is with real estate agencies. Many come there young and green. After working and gaining experience, they open their own. And not everyone closes down; some even become very successful.

Handicrafts, services or mini-production at home, in a garage, in an apartment

Handicrafts from gifts of nature and natural materials

Having your own mini production at home is far from uncommon these days. Organize something similar right at home. Particularly garage production. If you understand how to do minor car repairs, tuning, tire fitting and you have the appropriate premises and necessary tools why not have this opportunity to provide people need not to use services for the benefit of yourself and others?

The main thing in this direction is to correctly and competently decide on an unoccupied or more or less free niche. After all, to open your own, albeit small, even mini production at home, you will have to spend some money on equipment, tools, and materials. And it is important that these costs quickly pay off and allow production to expand. And, of course, make money.

As home production ideas for men, you can consider the following options:

• production of blocks for openwork beautiful concrete fences. Molds are sold in stores, casting technology can be found on YouTube videos;
• production and installation of platbands for metal-plastic windows, which after installation remain in a disgraceful condition on the outside;
• production of signs, signs, billboards;
• welding of various metal structures: steps, canopies, fences, window bars...

What kind of business can a woman open at home? There are also many options.

Let's take, for example, if you are a hairdresser or dressmaker, and the living space of your apartment allows you to work with your clientele without harming your family. Advertise that you are ready to provide proper service for the specified services right at your home. Under certain conditions, it is possible to visit the client’s home. Organize pre-registration so that people don’t have to wait in line (and you don’t need it either).

And there will definitely be those who want it. Not everyone lives in big cities, where almost every house on the ground floor has a hairdresser or a clothing tailoring or repair shop. And the service can be done a little cheaper, because you don’t have to rent a room.

And dressmakers earned money from home back in Soviet times. The only difference is that today you can find customers for your services via the Internet.

It won’t be difficult to come up with a necessary and useful business if you are a cook or pastry chef: production of canned food, jams, baking confectionery, pies...

There is no talk of accountants, economists, lawyers, tutors. They have long known themselves how to find consumers for their services. And at home or on the Internet, make reports, draw up contracts, and train. Their main tools for earning money are knowledge, skills, desires.

Existing experience is an important criterion when choosing a direction of activity at home

And if people like your services or products, it will be quite simple and effective. And there will be no need for advertisements.

There are enough options for such activities; tips on how to implement them can be found on the Global Network without much difficulty.

And the more imagination you show at the initial stage, the more money you can get from your brainchild in the future.

Some of the proposed options may remain so additional income, others will eventually grow into a truly profitable business.

Exclusive and network - a winning option for creating your own business

Of course, it is beneficial to choose an exclusive destination. There is less or no competition. See what is missing in your city on every corner. Again, study people’s dissatisfaction, for example, on the forums of your city. There, what is always brought up for discussion is what is poorly organized, what is missing or is completely absent.

And narrowly focused. For example, if you open a “Fish” or “Natural food from around the world” store, then, naturally, you can significantly expand the assortment in this direction. What hypermarkets cannot afford. And, to begin with, by providing effective advertising, attracting a large number of fans of these products. And if customers like it, they will bring friends and acquaintances.

And, of course, the emphasis on a network of stores and companies. Today they remain the main competitors of private sellers. For example, Yulmart, which operates on the Internet, also has offline pickup points throughout the country. Or the huge chain of Magnit stores. What city doesn't have them today?

Creating a low-cost income project on the Internet

Internet search engines today are quite advanced, their algorithms strive to reach the level of human intelligence. However, it's not worth it search engine ask a question the way you would ask a work colleague, something like “where do you think I should start my business?” or “help me find a job with a good boss and a high salary.”

First, the search is based on wording or quotes from the query, and only if there is no ready-made answer in the search database, the machine tries to unravel the meaning of your art.

Hello! Today we’ll talk about how to open your own business and how to become an entrepreneur. As a rule, this is what people who strive for independence want. Starting your own business offers a number of advantages, especially when compared to regular work for hire. But to get started, you need to carefully weigh everything, evaluate your capabilities and think through the details as much as possible.

Let's analyze where you can start a business if capital is minimal, or how to start your own business without initial capital:

• If you have knowledge and experience in any field of activity, you can use it as a platform to launch your project;
• You need to understand that running your own business is hard work. Doing nothing and getting millions will not work;
• To organize the whole process, you will have to do it 24 hours a day.

Let's compare a business without start-up capital investments and with start-up investments. For clarity, let's present it in table form:

Criterion	Business without capital investment	Business with capital investments
1.Costs cash at the start of the project	None
2.Costs monthly	None	Present in significant quantities
3. Complexity of organization	Low	Medium, high level
4.Presence of competition	High level	High level
5.Payback	Upon receiving your first income	Takes a lot of time
6. Level of demand	High	High

The table also makes clear the level of potential risk: if there was no investment of funds, the maximum is that you can lose this time and effort. With significant financial investments, the risks are high: you can lose not only your capital, but also other people’s funds.

How to get funds for business development

• Invest your savings in the business. By the way, it is considered the safest and most reliable option;
• Obtaining a loan from a bank. This is possible if you have something to provide as collateral to the bank. Without these conditions, lending will be denied. A loan can be taken for unspecified purposes and for business development. A deposit is required in both cases;
• Borrow from friends or family. If you are confident of success and the amount required is small, why not. If the matter does not live up to expectations, there will be nothing to repay the debt with, and relationships with loved ones will definitely deteriorate. Based on this, it is easier to get a loan;
• Find an investor. This could be one person who is interested in your project or the organization as a whole;
• Find a partner who will invest his money in the development of the business;
• Start with the minimum (release of one unit of goods or provision of services to only one customer);
• Design government subsidy (this will be discussed in more detail below);
• Raise money through crowdfunding. This is the collection of money from the population in any amount. For example, a fundraiser is announced to release a new album for a famous vocal group. Anyone can make an investment.

• If you open outlet, you need equipment for trade (refrigeration, scales, etc.);
• If you plan your own production, you need a whole line of equipment;
• If the business is conducted on the Internet, everything will be easier. But you need a warehouse to store goods.

Step 6. Advertising and business promotion issues

These issues require serious attention and investment. The main task of any business is to attract as many clients as possible. To expand customer base, we need competent advertising.

Online business also requires website development and optimization to maintain the business.

Government support

Allocation of subsidies- the most current type state aid. Two types of subsidies are issued: to those who have just planned to start their own business, and to those who want to modernize production and develop their existing business to a new level.

How to become a successful entrepreneur

It is unlikely that anyone will answer this question accurately. Successful businessmen become successful by putting in a lot of effort, working almost around the clock, earning invaluable experience and knowledge. Everyone goes their own way to success.

Everyone makes mistakes, but they are part of the journey. The main thing is to work on preventing them from happening all the time.

Typical mistakes of new entrepreneurs

• Start a business just because you think your idea is brilliant. Your idea should be appreciated potential buyers and clients, not yourself;
• Starting your own business without market analysis. Why it is needed has already been discussed earlier;
• Start without knowledge in the planned area of ​​​​doing business. A good example: open a workshop for the production of parts for machine tools, without knowing anything about machines;
• Expect millions in earnings in the first months after opening (business requires patience and time);
• Doing everything yourself: it’s simply unrealistic to cope with all the tasks alone. If you plan to be in business for a long time, you will have to hire employees. Good employees are not a big expense, but an investment!
• Starting a business without a clear business plan. To put it mildly, the idea is bad. You yourself will not have a complete idea of ​​your activities and what goals you set;
• Wrong prioritization. The main priority is clients. If they are there, the whole process will improve;
• Lack of desire to learn and improve. Study constantly, learn new things, expand your horizons;
• There is no general interest in the area in which it is planned to do business. Simply put: don't open a hockey school if you don't like hockey;
• There is no healthy tenacity. Many companies have collapsed only because management refused to deal with the flow of problems.

Business is a struggle, often with yourself and your shortcomings.

Ideas for starting your own business

This is not a complete list of business ideas that a novice entrepreneur can start. There are many of them. Find your idea and implement it.

Personal qualities of a successful entrepreneur

We figured out the question of how to become an entrepreneur. The idea for creating a business from scratch has already been chosen, a business plan that is ideal in all respects has been drawn up, but in addition to all this, you need to have something else important. Namely, certain personal qualities. We'll find out what they are now.

• Decisive character. Be prepared to take on the role of a leader who can be held accountable for his words and actions. It is important to learn to make difficult decisions, listen to the opinions and advice of others, but leave the final decision for yourself;
• The ability to come up with new things and think outside the box. A dose of adventurism is needed, but within reasonable limits. At the same time, do not forget that courage and recklessness are two different things;
• Love for the chosen business. If your eyes don’t sparkle, you won’t attract other people with your ideas;
• Reaction speed and ability to act in difficult situations. It will always come in handy, especially in business. It is impossible to predict everything, but if necessary, improvisation can help out;
• Don't be fooled. There is no need to deceive yourself, your employees, or your clients. Don’t set unrealistic deadlines, don’t try to sell something that doesn’t exist;
• Don't do things halfway. But manage your time wisely;
• Ability to be flexible. There is no need to strictly adhere to the initial plan if the actual situation does not correspond to it. Flexibility is valued more than being too stubborn and wanting to be right about everything;
• Intuition. There are times when it helps out better than logical conclusions;
• Tendency to introspection. Allows you to avoid many mistakes, correct old ones and not make new ones.

The above list can be continued. By developing these qualities, you can improve not only your life, but also significantly advance your business. Over time, you will mark the most important ones for yourself and begin to develop them intensively.

Personal qualities are largely responsible for the success of the entire business. Studies have shown that the main driving force for many - the need to realize themselves in their favorite business. An active life position should become a common feature of those who strive for success in any field.

In general, you need to be able to combine personal qualities with business, to benefit from both. Since any entrepreneurial activity is fraught with risks, you need to be firmly confident in the correctness of your actions and future success.

To achieve success in your business, you need to correctly combine acquired experience with natural inclinations. This will allow you to move faster towards your goal and achieve it within a reasonable time frame.
