Good food + right location (heavy foot traffic) = big profits. 6. Weddings The millennial generation is growing up and getting married.

You can even specialize: The senior market is promising, with elderly clients desiring to make homes (theirs or their kids) safer and more accessible. Or, you can target new homeowners. In 2009, nearly 25 percent of first-time homebuyers were single women. 8. Kids beauty products and services Unbelievably, by 2012, tweens and teens are expected to spend more than $8.5 billion on grooming and beauty products. Already, just among 6- to 9-year-old girls (per Experian market research): - 43 percent use lip gloss/lipstick - 38 percent use hairstyling products - 12 percent use other cosmetics Other ways to fill the demands of this market include starting kids hair salons, teen spas and gyms. 9.

In 2009, 26 percent of high-achieving seniors hired a private college counselor. 10. Cupcakes Dont believe the naysayers who say cupcakes are dead; theyre still mega hot and profitable. Cupcakes costing about 60 cents to produce can easily sell for $3 to $5. You can open a cupcakery, sell them in (or to) restaurants and bakeries, or even start a cart or mobile cupcake-mobile.

BEBERAPA PENYEBAB UMUM KEGAGALAN USAHA YANG PERLU ANDA KETAHUI: 1. Kegagalan melakukan riset pasar. Banyak perusahaan, baik berbasis rumah atau perusahaan besar, gagal karena tidak ada pasar yang memadai untuk produk atau jasa mereka. Sebuah analisis yang komprehensif dari bisnis ini terutama penting bagi bisnis rumah, karena beberapa bisnis cocok untuk sebuah bisnis rumahan, sementara beberapa tidak. Jika bisnis Anda mengharuskan Anda untuk bertemu klien, Anda harus terlebih dahulu memeriksa bagaimana keluarga Anda (dan tetangga) akan bereaksi terhadap hilir mudiknya orang-orang di rumah Anda. Sebelum memulai bisnis apapun, perlu bahwa Anda melakukan pemeriksaan menyeluruh pasar dan analisis pasar. 2. Pasif. Jika anda pasif, Anda hanya cocok bekerja untuk orang lain. Kecuali anda dapat langsung mampu mempekerjakan karyawan. Sebagai tim tunggal, Anda berharap bisa melakukan semuanya sendirian dari menulis rencana bisnis, manufaktur produk, pemasaran dan penjualan produk dan jasa, melakukan tugas pembukuan, dan sejuta tugas lainnya! Ingat, Anda hanya mengandalkan diri sendiri! Tidak ada pelanggan berarti tidak ada bisnis! 3. Miskin manajemen waktu. Salah satu keuntungan bekerja di rumah adalah bahwa Anda bisa mengatur waktu Anda sendiri. Ini, bagaimanapun, menjadi sebuah dilema yang menarik: sulit untuk mengatur waktu Anda sendiri! manajemen waktu yang buruk, karena Anda sendirian dan tidak ada yang mengawasi Anda. Anda harus mampu mengatur dan memprioritaskan. Ada satu juta alasan untuk mengalihkan perhatian Anda dari menjadi produktif dan Anda perlu belajar untuk mengelola waktu Anda secara efektif! 4. Kurang serius mengelola bisnis. Anda mungkin tidak memiliki kantor mewah di pusat kota atau Anda mungkin tidak perlu memakai pakaian kerja, tetapi bisnis berbasis rumah perlu disamakan profesionalismenya seperti pekerjaan di kantor. Penghasilan Anda akan langsung berhubungan dengan jumlah waktu, tenaga, pikiran dan uang yang Anda masukkan ke dalam bisnis jauh berbeda dari hari-hari menjadi pekerja ketika Anda dibayar bahkan ketika Anda sedang di kantor tetapi tidak mengerjakan pekerjaan kantor. 5. Tidak mengikuti filosofi 80/20. 80 persen berasal dari bisnis Anda dan 20 persen berasal dari pelanggan Anda. Ingat, harganya dua kali lipat untuk mendapatkan pelanggan baru daripada mempertahankan yang sudah ada. Mempertahankan supaya pelanggan Anda senang dan nyaman, jauh lebih murah dan lebih mudah daripada mencari pelanggan baru. Mendapatkan penjualan berulang dari pelanggan lama biaya pemasarannya lebih rendah dan keuntungan yang didapat lebih tinggi. 6. Tidak sering mempromosikan bisnis. Bisnis Anda sebagai ukuran pasar yang ingin Anda raih. Anda perlu agresif mempromosikan produk atau jasa Anda. Jangan anggap promosi sebagai beban yang tidak perlu daripada investasi. Promosi itu benar-benar penting.

7. Menghabiskan terlalu banyak modal. Selama tahap awal pengembangan bisnis, Anda mungkin akan dipenuhi dengan modal. Hindari kesalahan biaya mahal yang tidak perlu. Kecuali model bisnis Anda kuat dan Anda telah membangun aliran pendapatan, Anda tidak boleh menganggap bahwa Anda akan memiliki uang tunai dan modal kerja selamanya. Anda tidak perlu membeli peralatan kantor jika memang tidak diperlukan. Tanyakan kepada diri sendiri: Apakah Anda benar-benar membutuhkan kursi pijat yang mahal untuk Anda? Perencanaan keuangan yang buruk, kesalahan manajemen dana atau pengeluaran anggaran adalah penyebab umum kegagalan bisnis. 8. Tidak Membelanjakan uang dengan bijaksana. Pertama, Anda perlu memahami aturan utamanya usaha: uang melahirkan uang. Adakalanya Anda menghabiskan uang untuk menghasilkan uang. Misalnya, untuk mendapatkan nasihat hukum, Anda harus membayar pengacara. Mengirimkan press release sendiri memerlukan biaya komunikasi (fax, perangko, amplop, dll). Banyak pemilik bisnis rumah kehilangan peluang besar karena mereka menolak untuk melakukan investasi di mana yang diperlukan. Belanjakanlah uang Anda dengan bijaksana. 9. Tidak meminta bantuan bila Anda membutuhkannya. Anda harus tetap berada di jalan yang benar dan kembali ke jalan yang benar ketika bisnis Anda dirasa sudah tidak mampu dipertahankan. Anda membutuhkan saran dan nasihat dari ahlinya atau teman dan rekan bisnis yang berpengalaman.Ikuti diskusi di mailing list, menghadiri seminar, bertemu dengan sesama pengusaha lainnya. Hal ini akan membantu Anda memperbaiki bisnis Anda yang sudah mulai kehilangan arah. 10. Tidak memiliki rencana darurat untuk menghadapi masalah ekonomi yang sulit. Kesulitan dapat menekan bisnis pada waktu yang berbeda. Pengusaha rumah terkenal untuk terjun ke semua bisnis. Mereka tidak memiliki rencana darurat-kembali skenario awal saat jatuh. Mereka berpikir bahwa semuanya akan berjalan lancar, hanya jalan penuh dengan kesulitan dan tantangan saja. Bagian terpenting dari masalah ini adalah mengenali masalah dengan segera. Belajar untuk berhati-hati setiap saat, dan mempertajam orang-orang berpikir kreatif. Menjadi kreatif dalam pemikiran bisnis Anda bisa mengarahkan Anda pada arah yang lebih positif.
