Topic: Starting a business without capital. (Read 1094 times)

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.

Your right here! Having a good sum of money in your hand as a capital to start a business is good and it will give you access to things you cannot do when you do not have any money on you. Which you have mentioned earlier. But i think that OP is trying to say that there are people who may have that money but dont know how to start a mange a business and even if they try to implement these things you mentioned they may go about it the wrong way.

That means it is good one have a 0 zero amount at hand and a million dollars amount in the brain. So that when they have such amount or little to start their business they will be successful at the end. It takes a prepared mind to be successful on anything whether with money or not.

Becoming a content creator is not easy, of course there will be its own obstacles and I think this does require capital, even if it is calculated as small as with an internet connection, in my opinion that is already included in the capital. there is no way we can do it without an internet connection. It is true that in this era, technological developments make everything easier, but of course, even though everyone can become a content creator, not everyone can be consistent in doing it because some people may fail to do it because they are not able to cope with the obstacles they have to face.

Many streamers currently play games live and earn money from it, but I don't think it's easy. because as far as I know there are some things that are quite difficult to do, but I agree with what you said regarding the three things you mentioned. However, with the second and third, I think you are conveying essentially the same advice, namely "sure", only the sentence is reversed.

I agree with you, indeed a business that is built using capital takes time to develop to become better. Starting a business from scratch is certainly not easy even if our finances are sufficient. Of course there will be obstacles or unexpected things that can happen, such as risks that we don't think about or obvious problems that can occur with all the businesses we run, there is nothing that can rule out the possibility that problems can occur, even if we run our business as well as possible, we still can. problems or risks are likely to occur.
For business development, of course it obviously takes time, no one starts a business and immediately becomes successful or the business they run runs smoothly, no matter how clever someone is in running a business, of course they will definitely experience problems first, it's just that they are smart in overcoming the problems so that the business is successful. it runs fine.

It is not possible to run a business without making a large capital investment. Affiliate marketing is not a business it is just a way to earn some income by promoting other's business or selling other's products. therefore, it cannot be considered as a business. Business is when you have your own products and sell them. and for this you must invest a lot of money. It is not possible to do business without big capital. i think op don’t know the difference of business and Affiliate marketing

You cannot start a business without capital because I don’t know how you will fund such a business to grow. And I haven’t seen anyone who has done that before. There is no way you will enter a business without any capital. Just imagine entering a bitcoin investment without money. How can you be successful in that business that you are about to start? I don't think there’s a way you will be a successful businessman or investor. Without money, you can’t even promote your business in order to grow.


What’s the hard work then if you don’t have money to fund the business you want to start? However, in this life, if you are really ready to do business, then you need money to support your business, and capital cannot be raised. You must enter business with capital, not until you start the business before you get the capital.

I'm not saying it's dead or outdated, I'm just saying that its heyday is over and things are becoming saturated so making money from it isn't as easy as it used to be. Of course, those who pursue it from the beginning still earn a decent income from it, but beginners will encounter many difficulties and challenges. I still have some friends who are still working in the affiliate marketing industry, they still earn a pretty good income, but earning a huge income like the old days is just a memory.

As for getting rich, it depends on each person's mindset, not on the industry you are working in, any industry can produce billionaires if you know how to take advantage of it.

Someone who's eager to start a business, will definitely start it no matter what and anticipates the possible good and bad result.

They're willing to do it with a capital of course. Someone who doesn't have plans to get into business and does have a capital, they're comfortable and don't want to cause themselves any trouble.

In my opinion, starting a business without capital is not impossible in the current era. The stigma of starting a business with large capital is that people whose average expectations are very high end up feeling afraid or embarrassed to start it.

In fact, every time we start a business, we only need to understand three steps, first understand the knowledge, second be confident in the business we are running, and third run it with full confidence. Especially in the current digital era, many businesses do not require a lot of capital or even no capital at all. One of them is like the example you gave, now even with a smartphone you can make money like being a content creator on social media, of course the key is to only have one desire and don't give up easily.

I suggest starting with not zero, because I know that a lot of people will look for zero, but the reality is that if you have even a small amount, you should be able to actually start a business a lot better.

The difference between zero dollars and even something small like a thousand dollars is HUGE in the online world, for a thousand dollars you could probably get the social media posts handled, get like 200 posts with great mock-ups ready for the images and posts itself, and you could get a template website ready, nothing too fancy but at least something that explains what your business does, a logo, a great business offer on paper to everyone, and you could just go around and could collect a lot more money after that, all within budget. With zero? You can't do any of that.

This is true though profit making in any business will take time at last but any business we start most likely to bring in the cash flow from the day one which could be very low but still the cash flow will help to run it while you are doing all these. Anyway I said that isn't even a business, it's same as some sales executive who work commission basis unless we are talking about someone who is already a celebrity and brands are waiting in queue because they know it's gonna be a sure shot.

If you've got the bravado and the confidence to be able to talk to people and sell them something without making them feel irritated of you, you're probably going to make money with affiliate marketing, the only problem with this one is that not everyone can do this even those that want to become a businessman, they will have a hard time and affiliate marketing isn't for everybody anyway. Also, why would you want to start at something when it's much more easier to have the basic requirements, not everything in life is about taking the difficult path, if the easy path that will make your success more likely shows up, shouldn't you grab that opportunity? I think that there's been an epidemic of being allured that hard work equals success, that's not going to be the case in this economy and current state of the world.

Even most businesses you establish with a capital would still take time for you to build a good and strong customer and audience base since it's still relatively new. Time is one of the essential qualities of a good a thriving business, as you'll need time to nurture and expand the business so can actually know about it.

     It can happen that you can start a business without taking out any investment. For example, in the traditional business of consignments, you will drop products, then remit the goods when they are sold. You will only be given a day until you sell them.

     And when you are online, there are more opportunities for businesses that you can get profit from without capital, such as affiliate marketing number one on YouTube and Facebook accounts, which you can earn as long as you monetize your account or page. Here in crypto through airdrop's.

You make affiliate marketing sound so easy a d simple to go with because a newbie reading this op that's the perspective they will have about affiliate marketing not until they go into it and see the challenges there embedded. You fail to emphasize about the importance of growing a community which is what affiliate marketer success lies on, and this community takes time to build and you'll have to gain their attention and trust. In doing all of these you will need preferably a phone at least, burning of data,  and this requires financial capital to keep rolling even when the community has not been made.

And you don't just wake up one morning to become an affiliate marketer, you will have to undergo some training to have good communication skills about what you do in order to be able to attract audience within a competitive market. All of these demands capital to get enrolled into a training, right?

A business is not easy to start and anybody that is ready to start a busy must be prepared for the worse care eventually. I have seen so many businesses that was started with huge amount of money but finally ended in nothing. We we need to understand that before we ever think of doing a business, there are so many questions we needed to ask ourselves so that we don't become novice when everything has finally started. We can make money from the business that was created even though it was a month ago. Dedication is another question one need to ask so that we don't start what we can not finish.
