Starting a new business doesn’t necessarily require a large investment or a team of people. In fact, there are plenty of one-person businesses that can be started with just a few resources and a lot of creativity. If you’re feeling inspired to start your own business, but don’t have a lot of capital to invest, here are a few one-person businesses you can start today with $0.
1. Freelance Writing or Editing
If you have a way with words and a keen eye for detail, freelance writing or editing could be a great business to start. There are countless websites and companies looking for freelance writers and editors to help with their content. You can create a profile on freelancing websites such as Upwork or Fiverr and start offering your services to potential clients. All you need is a computer and an internet connection to get started.
2. Social Media Management
With the rise of social media, businesses are constantly looking for help managing their online presence. If you’re social media savvy, you can start a one-person business managing the social media accounts of small businesses or individuals. You can create content, schedule posts, and engage with followers on behalf of your clients. Again, all you need is a computer and an internet connection to get started.
3. Virtual Assistant
Another one-person business you can start with $0 is becoming a virtual assistant. Many businesses and entrepreneurs are looking for help with administrative tasks, scheduling, and other day-to-day operations. If you’re organized and efficient, you can offer your services as a virtual assistant and help others manage their workload. You can find clients through freelancing websites or by reaching out to businesses directly.
4. Online Tutoring
If you’re knowledgeable in a particular subject, you can start a one-person business offering online tutoring services. Whether it’s math, science, language, or music, there are plenty of students looking for extra help outside of school. You can create a profile on tutoring websites or reach out to local schools and parents to offer your services. All you need is a computer, internet connection, and a webcam to start tutoring online.
5. Handmade Crafts or Products
If you’re creative and have a skill for making handmade crafts or products, you can start a one-person business selling your items online. Whether it’s jewelry, art, candles, or clothing, there are plenty of online marketplaces such as Etsy or eBay where you can sell your creations. You can start by using materials you already have at home and create a budget-friendly inventory.
No matter which one-person business you choose to start, the key to success is dedication, hard work, and a passion for what you do. With the right mindset and a creative approach, you can turn your entrepreneurial dreams into reality, even with $0 to start. Good luck!

Most of one says Newsletters don’t work now. Reason is no one is really want to explain, how it works? Most of them they really don’t want us to know much more about newsletter. Your video is good but haven’t revealed the way you create it and publish it. Make some more video on how to create it and step by step procedure if you really want us to join your community. Thank you.

Does a lead magnet also work with a subscription based newsletter? If so, how do I set one up, since I not only want to have the customer's email but also their paid subscription.

Man, this video is pure gold! The hustle of starting a newsletter with zero bucks is real. For the content game, I found boost app social helps a ton with bio and captions. Sneaky good for engagement.

In theory a good idea but you make it look like so easy, with all sorts of AI software now the competition is fierce and this is going to be almost an impossible task, especially if you want to make money with it. Just do this only if you love writing and don't care whether you make money with it or not. All these youtubers creating content like this just boosts their youtube revenue, in actuality this business model is not really very realistic nowadays. Oh well..
