Thinking about finally stepping into the world of entrepreneurship? Making the decision to start your own business is exciting, yet it can be full of overwhelm. For those who have multiple ideas for a business, picking just one can be a difficult task. And if you do not yet have a business idea — but know that you want to start your own company — you may be having a challenging time coming up with the right concept.

If you’re looking for a business idea that is both simple to start and run, The Underdog Print Shop shares four fantastic ideas that you can use.

Graphic design services

Have an eye for aesthetics? Do you have education or experience in creating logos, marketing materials, book interiors, web sites, and the like? If so, opening your own graphic design business could be an excellent choice.

Offering graphic design services takes little preparation and planning. It is also a cost-effective business to start if you don’t have much saved for start-up costs. Begin by investing in a new desktop or laptop computer that works well with design software. Next, research today’s industry leading design programs to find the right one for you. After taking these two easy steps, you have almost everything you need to begin.

Online boutique

Have you ever dreamed about running your own boutique? Whether you want to offer custom apparel with your favorite sayings, or unique gifts, it is easier than ever before to launch an online boutique. Get ready to open your store by coming up with your official product list.

Life coaching

Individuals who enjoy helping others can consider starting their own life coaching business. There are a variety of reputable online certification programs that teach you everything you need to know to work in this role. Upon completing your chosen program, you can begin offering in-person and/or online sessions. You can get creative and offer group programs, webinars, or even write a book.

Pet sitting and/or dog walking

Love spending time with dogs, cats, and other pets? People who have a passion for caring for animals can launch a pet sitting and/or dog walking business. Those who live in larger neighborhoods can often find a client base minutes from home. Rather than offering your services through an online platform, maximize your profits by going into business for yourself. Fitting this type of work into your daily life is especially easy, as you can control how many clients you take on at one time.

How to get started

All new business owners will have to complete similar tasks to get their businesses up and running. From applying for business licenses to getting required inspections, it is important that you research what needs to be done before your official launch date. Keep in mind that you can find attorneys who specialize in securing the permits and licenses your occupation and location requires, which saves you some headache and ensures your business is compliant.

Before getting started, you’ll need an Employer Identification Number (EIN) which is assigned by the IRS to identify your business. You’ll need an EIN to open a business bank account, hire employees, and form a business entity. To simplify the process, you can hire a service to handle your EIN application

Additionally, it is helpful to purchase tools that can quickly help your new business grow. For example, when looking to organize your bookkeeping and accounting, having the right software is essential so you can effortlessly manage day-to-day operations by running payroll, managing inventory, and more.

Becoming an entrepreneur is an exciting endeavor. Utilizing the above tips can make your journey far easier, and can set you weeks ahead in terms of your progress.
