I think this is possible, I've seen a lot of people with really awesome ideas either selling their product/service ideas to those who have the power to make it happen, or they ask funding from those who already made it in the business world, as well as mentorship. Shows like Shark Tank are a really good example of this happening.

But even then, sometimes depending on the product you're trying to sell you could just cut the middleman and start your venture even without money, Facebook, Microsoft, and the biggest tech giants in the past have been able to start their success stories in the blistering heat and discomfort of their garages and bunkbeds inside dorms, if you're trying to create a similar product, you might just be able to, but always remember that whatever you don't pay with money, you're paying with something else of equal importance to you. Time, Health, relationships with the people around you, these will be tested  as you try to make it out of the ladder. it will be up to you if those are more important than the success you're seeing for yourself.

In the end, there is still basic capital where you use a laptop and the internet which is capital so that nothing can be called a business without capital because in the end even if you become an affiliator in the end it is certain that there is initial capital that we must pay attention to such as the duration of time you need to work on, how we invite, the internet we use and the laptop or gadget that is used as a suggestion is also initial capital in the end so that in business matters this also needs to be considered which makes no business that cannot be done without capital.

Using the minimum possible capital is still possible but if there is no capital at all I doubt it will work because as i said earlier nothing can really be done if you don't have anything so when talking about business all forms must be considered and taken into account because it is your initial capital in the end.

In the traditional way of setting up a business, you really need to have money to release; you can't have any money to release. Then you also need to be hardworking, patient, determined, and strong. We need to rotate our capital correctly.

Now, if you do business online, it's a bit less of a hustle compared to the traditional way of business. Because there are many ways to get earnings without spending any money, you just need to be patient in your search. It can't be true.

It all starts that you still need money no matter what happens. Yes, you can start from nothing but you need to work for it and still earn some money.
Those jobs that don't require you to be that much formal and you're only going to take time until you have your first sale and commission and from there, you already have your beginnings.

I agree with your sentence, it is possible but difficult, starting a business without capital must have skills and expertise in the field of business that we want to run. Talking about capital is not only the money we have to spend. for example affiliate marketing we must have good skills and communication in addition to most affiliators now successful capitalize a beautiful and handsome face to lure buyers to buy the products he offers, it is also a capital that every affiliate marketing must have.

Starting a business without capital. Yeah you can do it nothing is impossible but starting business without capital would be hard and takes time because no matter what we need capital even tho is small take example build affiliate marketing or dropship you still need an internet and laptop so yeah

You can work first and earn some money and then buy laptop and internet and then you can start business

You have some points but let face reality. You shouldn't expect much from any business you start without a capital. Making a decent profit is only possible in theory especially for the beginners. I know there are a few successful businesses that started without capital or with just a little capital and they are now famous. However, the truth is that it's not easy to get to that point.

Affiliate marketing is a good option but it takes effort and dedication to start making little to nothing from it. As a starter, you can not solely rely on affiliate marketing for your survival because you won't be able to make enough money to fully support yourself. The fact is, even people who are successful today in affiliate marketing did not start making significant income from it until after several months or even years depending on how well people trust you and how you are able to convince them. I know a few people who attempted but gave up in the long run due to their inability to make a sell. If one is willing to make sacrifice and remain committed, they will probably reach certain stage of start making a profit from it. It's a very a gradual process that requires patience.

having creative idea in building product is good, but what usually causes people to fail their business is the execution a person can have the best idea there is and become the most creative person ever if they just can't really execute their idea it won't turn into profit, same thing with solving an actual problem and starting business out of it you can easily get success with building a business that actually has some use and solving a real problem.
if its just creating business just for the sake of creating business and thats it, i think thats where the fate of the entreprenurship is doomed to fail.
business overall is not an easy thing to do, every factor affect the way your business could works also determine whether your business gonna become a real business or just an empty shell.
overall, even mentorship thats truly helpful and connection affect a lot in business.
therefore never underestimate business difficulties.

In starting a business what is really needed is creativity, because this is very important in building a business, relying on money in my opinion will not help anything if we are not creative enough, and if we have creativity but don't have a lot of capital we can still run it or make use of it, because in building a business creativity is very important and really needed to build the business that we will run.

In an increasingly sophisticated era like now, even though we don't have capital, it is not a barrier for those of us who want to build, utilizing the expertise and skills we have will really help us, and continue to explore the business world and always hone our abilities, one of which is We can do it even though we don't have much capital, by relying on the crafts we make, if we are persistent it will become something, so keep on being creative because this really helps us in running our business.

For TikTok, most of the content people make requires no money, it's just some creators out of millions who might spend some money on their videos by buying props and stuff and making videos that might require some investment, but all other creators do is make some music or voiceover and make a video on that and that doesn't require any money. Even the most famous TikToker in the world, Khaby Lame, made his career out of nothing, he made funny videos using other videos as a reference and got so much fame from it.

You are right though that people who have some social media followers and fans can use that to promote their affiliate links and this might work for them. Those who don't have that might have to look into paid ads because you can't get customers or referrals by just posting the link here and there.

I Saw an acquaintance of mine who was able to establish an independent and profitable business without capital. His journey was such that he used to buy mechanical parts from various shops and deliver them to customers through mobile phone. When the customer received the goods and paid him the value, he kept his profit and gave that money to the shopkeeper. In this way he gradually continued to increase his business scope through promotion and gradually he was able to establish a large parts supplier company. In that case, a man must be strategic and discover profitable areas.

True, it is a difficult thing but that doesn't mean we can't do it, it depends on how well we can see the opportunities that exist and then start working on them. There are many things where we can take advantage of the opportunities that exist in this era, especially since this is an era where life is easy.
Working hard is the key, someone who spends a large amount of capital doesn't mean they don't have to work hard, they will still do it. We can see many examples, for example a company that started from 0. They will work hard to make their company known and trusted by many people.
But maybe if we start without capital, we have to be able to work harder than those who have capital, and we are guaranteed to do everything ourselves, unlike companies that can pay employees for example.

It’s difficult but possible to start a business without capital. Identify a profitable business idea that requires minimal investment such as offering freelance services or creating digital products. Use free marketing platforms & social media to promote your business. Look for partnerships or collaborations to access resources & reach a wider audience. Reinvest profits into the business to gradually expand. Provide excellent customer service to build a loyal customer base. Stay determined, resourceful & persistent to succeed.

Creating content is harder than just hitting "Go Live". The internet's the bare minimum, the table stakes. What separates the wannabes from the ones who make a living? Consistency. Most people underestimate the grind. It's ideas, editing, community, tech troubleshooting...a never-ending cycle. The real battleground's in your head. Top streamers, they make it look like fun, but they've turned themselves into a business. Every interaction, a piece of the bigger strategy. You figure that out, find your audience, and stay relentless? That's where potential turns into paychecks. Roadblocks are gonna happen, but it's whether you adapt or give up that determines where you end up

Yes, of course there are many things to consider apart from the main capital being money. Motivation and willingness to work are also other things that must be started so that activities and goals are focused. There are also cases where if someone has enough capital but is not based on knowledge then what they do often falls apart. So I still recommend that someone who wants to start a business must really be able to master many things about business management.

Because in the end nothing can be done without capital because don't think that capital is only based on money but in the end we also have to be able to take into account other situations such as time and maybe other things such as knowledge is also a capital so that even though we don't spend money but when we spend more time in learning a business it is capital in the end so that nothing can be said to be a business without capital because everything needs careful preparation to do it.

It's just that the stigma that occurs now is not only about doing business but for other things capital is always synonymous with money but in the end it's not wrong, it's just not very appropriate if in the end we only consider only money as capital because in the end there are several factors that can become capital that we don't realise.

 

You can't actually start a business without capital but you can start a business without your capital and I'm not talking about going to borrow money since when you receive the loan it becomes your money so you're technically still using your money because the loans has to be payed back. Starting a business without capital can come in form of using others money as the capital and thast where networking comes in. There are some set of people that re good at convincing others to invest into their Idea ls and they use this people money as starting capital for their businesses. A bet you have seen people becoming successful without investing a dime or not investing a big capital into their business.


You can use others money. There are many people out there with money but they don't know how to use them especially people that just got a large amount of money but they do not have any management abilities to handle the money. I'm talking about those that just won the lottery or a bet (large amount from gambling) and those that received their pension. People too that just inherited a large wealth and do not know how to manage it but have interest investing in Bitcoin. You can help manage their portfolio or teach them how to invest and get a fees that you can use to start your own investment.

People who say they can build a business from zero look like they are spreading lies, and they never think before they speak, they don't even know what they are saying. In all business cycles, everything starts with the support of those closest to you, connections and of course your own motivation to start it. I also agree with you, where I think the statement that you can build a business from zero is a mistake. Maybe some just don't want to admit the help they get from other people, that's why they say that everything started from zero.

It's true, everyone needs capital to build a business, even in the service sector we have to study first, where we have to pay a certain amount of money and spend some time to master a certain skill. Overall, building a business requires consistency and deep understanding, so that we can profit from the capital we have. Risks will always exist in any business, learning from other people experiences is the best way to minimize them.

I read references from several articles that affiliates are included in the business using a commission distribution system to affiliates who have promoted their products on social media or on their personal websites, but I do not agree that they are not really without capital but relatively they only use capital low for product promotion activities.

Affiliate activities are very much in demand for earning online income, for example on the TikTok application (perhaps some countries prohibit the TikTok application) which has released an affiliate feature which is widely used to promote products from online stores, they pay higher commissions than from other affiliate platforms.

I agree with this that starting a business requires capital, it doesn't need to be too big, the point is how the capital is used as well as possible, even if it is small at least it can be used either to build a website or buy something that can be used to support the business. Because I myself don't really agree with the idea that says that a business can be started without capital, that is a mistake, because true business starts with capital - because there is not a single company in this world that is successful without using capital, it all starts with capital, no matter how small.
