My class is doing a business plan. And i need to know a good business that can start when leaving highschool.

My sisters and I are looking to start a small business that targets girls. Any ideas of products we could produce and sell would be greatly appreciated =). Thanks!

Seeing that you have all the equipment and work space at home along with your skills to market to customers, how much more do you need to put into running a business from home?

My partner and I are brainstorming about ways to start a business. We thought about flipping houses. We will do our research first. What are some other things we can invest in that are really popular these days and can give us a chance to be successful? He has own a comic bookstore, but went out of business because of bad partnership. Now he’ll take his chance with me. What would be good to do these days to make good money?

I trying to locate person’s interested in being part of a small business community. We can exchange ideas about ways we can make business more profitable and better to generate wealth.

I want to start my own home business, but I don’t know what I could do with a background in Computer. I know I don’t want to programming. I’m good at most everything else though. I was thinking about blogging, but I don’t know it you can make good money from blogging. Any ideas?

We need to produce business directory listings for a business and community information resource site. What would be the fastest, most reliable method of collection for this information? We plan to expand into a wide variety of areas -cities, counties, regions, etc.- and require the ability to collect, update and manage the information quickly, on a regular basis. Our users, both novice and experienced internet users, would basically be using us as a “Business and Community Portal” for city and regional information. Thank You.
It’s aimed to be a local “city centric” portal not just for business directories, but for news, information, and community cooperation. We hope to incorporate a social networking aspect -by connecting to current relevant social networking sites- and provide local advertising, articles, tourism information, and community forums.
We plan to list local resources (museums, parks, government, etc.) and companies as a free service, in a basic directory. However, as a business model, to generate sales and revenue, the businesses and organizations can then purchase premium profile listings that will feature thier logo/trademark, expanded information (incl. website link), a brief description of thier services, as well as social media links, etc. We will aslo sell digital media advertising in the form of banner ads, featured ads, article links, and partner pages.
We are constantly looking into new ideas and exhisting methods and uses to intergrate into our sites. We welcome community and client feedback for features they would like to see available on such a portal. We realize there are similar sites (mostly managed by larger corp. conglomerates), but few that are attempting to make these sites specifically more localized with pertinant information for the location they represent.

I am starting a new parts business and I want to be able to accept credit cards (we already accept PayPal), but it seems so expensive for a business just starting out! How can I do this?

My parents are planning to start a new business (club/restaurant), and they want to know if the business name that they are thinking of is already being used by some other business in the same industry. How do you find out if a business name is already registered?
