There are many ways to skin a cat

There are many potential startup business ideas that will help you make good money fast.

• The key is to find startup business ideas that will work for you.
  

For example, I have a friend who started buying store closeouts in bulk from a liquidator and sell them to friends and on ebay.

• He's netting over a thousand dollars a week currently.
  

Another friend of mine developed a strong set of skills in transportation / logistics based on his years working over the road as a long-haul driver as well as working in different traffic centers.

• He's now an independent contractor and doing very well.
  

A third friend of mine started a local blog in his hometown that developed into a central clearinghouse for city information, political commentary and gossip.

• He's since been elected to the village board and is supplementing his income with ad revenue from his (still thriving) website.
  

Before starting your business, you need a skill, an idea, or an opportunity.

Different business ideas require different needs; you may need money, technical support, organizational assistance, etc.

• And, as you can see from the three examples above, finding the best startup business ideas requires that you keep an eye on on matching your background and experience with a money-making idea.
  
  
• Thus, before making a commitment, do an honest analysis as to whether you have the time and resources needed to make the effort successful.
