Got no money but want to start a business?

I’ve got you.

1. Pick a Business Model That Requires No Money Upfront

Some of the best businesses require skill, effort, and time—not cash. Here are a few options:

💻 Service-Based Business (No Inventory, Just Skill)
• Freelancing (graphic design, video editing, copywriting, social media management)
• Consulting/Coaching (fitness, marketing, business, mindset)
• Virtual Assistant (admin work, customer support, data entry)
• TikTok/UCG Content Creator (brands pay for organic-style video content)
• Website Flipping (build sites using free tools like Canva & ChatGPT, then sell them)

📦 Product-Based Business (Using Other People’s Money)
• Drop Servicing (sell services like logo design or video editing on Fiverr, outsource the work for cheaper)
• Print-on-Demand (sell T-shirts/mugs via Shopify, but only pay when you make a sale)
• Affiliate Marketing (promote other people’s products and take a cut)
• TikTok Shop Selling (find a trending product, start posting content, and get it drop-shipped)

2. Validate Your Idea Without Spending Money
• Use Social Media to Test Demand → Post about your idea on TikTok, Instagram, or Facebook to gauge interest.
• Pre-sell Your Service/Product → Offer it at a discount for first customers and get paid before you even create it.
• Build an Audience First → If you can get attention, money will follow. Start posting valuable content in your niche.

3. Leverage Free Tools Instead of Paying for Software
• Website? → Use Carrd.co or a free Gumroad/Linktree page.
• Graphics? → Use Canva for free.
• Marketing? → TikTok & Instagram are free and powerful if you post good content.
• Automation? → Use ChatGPT & Google Sheets to handle work for free.

4. Make Money FIRST, Then Reinvent the Business
• Don’t spend on a website, ads, or branding until you’ve made money.
• Cashflow first, scaling later. Most people waste money before proving their business even works.
• Reinvest your first profits into tools that make your life easier.

5. Keep It Simple, Just Start
• Sell before you build → If no one wants to buy your idea, you just saved yourself time and effort.
• Use free marketing (TikTok & Instagram Reels) → No one is stopping you from posting 50 pieces of content a day and making sales.
• Offer something that solves a problem → People will pay for results.

The Broke Business Blueprint

You don’t need money to start. You need hustle, consistency, and a valuable offer.
