What is the most profitable small business you can open. Decoration and design

In this material:

When it comes to setting up a business in Russia, this is intimidating for many. Excuses with a hint of corruption, bureaucracy and excessive state influence on entrepreneurs are very much in vogue. Entrepreneurs who have created successful businesses, on the contrary, call Russia, Moscow, St. Petersburg, the best place to create a business. If many people managed to create a business in Russia, it means that doing their own business is justified and profitable!

What business areas are relevant in Russia today?

Consider business ideas that will help both experienced and novice entrepreneurs realize their potential.

Service business

Business in the service sector captivates with its simplicity.

In Moscow alone, there are more than a thousand different businesses that provide services rather than sell goods.

  • Salon . This is not a new, standard business that does not require any special sophistication. People always need to cut their hair. To open your own barbershop, you will need a room, several employees and inexpensive equipment. A hairdressing salon is a very profitable business, as it does not require the purchase of expensive equipment and high salaries for staff.
  • Beauty saloon . If a person, and especially a woman, came to you in order to preen, then it is foolish to let her go without offering additional services. And on additional services you can earn much more. A haircut is ordered every couple of months, but nails, eyebrows, eyelashes have to be done every week or at least twice a month. You should have noticed that Soviet-style barbershops are gradually disappearing, and numerous beauty salons are appearing in their place. This is a logical development of the service with the expansion of the range of services provided.
  • Smartphone repair. Smartphones regularly break down - fall, glass breaks, operating system firmware is required. A smartphone repair service will be in high demand, especially if located at a crossroads or in a shopping mall. All you need is a point, a master and inexpensive equipment.
  • Software Development. According to statistical studies, Russians believe that being a programmer is better than being an entrepreneur. What is the demand from the programmer? None tax audits, no bureaucracy, sits at a computer, writes code and receives a salary of more than one hundred thousand rubles. That's right, but such high salaries are formed due to the fact that development customers pay ten times more. A small software development firm spends several million rubles on salaries and earns several tens of millions per month.

Home business

The dream of many is a profitable small home business.

A few ideas:

  • At home, the production of some products is being established. These can be handmade products, weaving furniture from wicker, making slippers from linen, or making homemade cakes. The main thing is to find a market. It is worth doing advertising yourself, social networks are perfect for this, another option is to conclude an agreement with the nearest store or outlet.
  • It is not necessary to produce a product, the alternative is to provide a service. A few decades ago it was difficult to imagine how to earn some money while sitting at home. It was only the lot of composers and writers. Many Russians are into copywriting, video editing, making videos for YouTube channels, and earn much more than they could earn in “real” life.
  • Your apartment can be converted into an office and provide makeup, massage or stylist services. For example, to work as a massage therapist, you will need to purchase for five thousand rubles a massage table and cheap oil. A half-hour massage session in Moscow brings more than a thousand rubles. This business is good because every modern resident needs a massage. Clients are in in social networks, and among neighbors, just place an ad at the entrance to the entrance.

Internet business

Such is the peculiarity of a Russian person that he is not very attracted to a business at home, which involves the production of goods. I want to work on the Internet - look at the monitor, press the keys on the keyboard, move the mouse and earn income.

Well, that's also possible. A few ideas for a person who does not have any skills and cannot boast of higher education in the IT field:

  • Vkontakte community- excellent business. It is enough to choose a specific niche, for example, psychology interpersonal relationships, and publish updates regularly. It turns out to earn up to one hundred thousand rubles a month, and more. Complete anonymity is allowed: no one will know who the group belongs to and who earns on it. The situation is similar with other social networks, but Facebook is not so popular in our country.
  • YouTube channel. It would seem that it is so difficult to film your life on a video camera or smartphone and regularly upload these videos to the Internet? There is nothing complicated, and the numbers that students and even schoolchildren earn are simply amazing. The YouTube channel is obviously a profitable business. It does not require any investment, and attracts an audience to you for free. If you create a channel in a commercial niche, you can monetize the audience by selling trainings to your subscribers or advertising products from the affiliate network for which you will receive royalties.
  • Online store. Be that as it may, the biggest money is earned on the Internet through sales. Entrepreneurs make money on the banal resale of Chinese goods purchased from wholesalers. Purchasing platforms are most often Aliexpress or Alibaba. It is easy to find anything on these sites. The margin on trinkets can be hundreds of percent.

The most demanded business in Russia

Starting your next online store or opening a grocery store is a good idea, but it won't surprise anyone. It is good to create a business, focusing on demand, because compliance with this principle guarantees demand, and where there is demand, there is money.

Russia traditionally lacks quality service. For example, travel agencies are a dime a dozen. They race to offer cheap tours to exotic countries, but the VIP tourism market is almost empty. In order to relax in the Maldives, customers have to book charter flights and use the services of foreign travel companies.

The situation is similar with car service. Not everyone wants to save money when replacing summer tires with winter ones. Many people care about the speed of service and quality.

Almost empty is the investment niche. The Russians do not know where to invest their money. While Americans are actively investing in stock market, thus supporting their economy, Russians acquire apartments, inflating the national residential real estate market.

The niche of investing in precious metals is practically empty. In India, China, Germany, USA, South Africa and other rich and poor countries, the population buys physical gold. It is almost impossible to do this in our country. If there are still instruments for sale (Sberbank branches), then sell a metal ingot or gold coin almost impossible.

You can fill this market, but, of course, you need active cooperation with government agencies.

There are more than a thousand cities in our country. Most residents would like to go somewhere else, the alternative is to look at their provincial status from the other side.

  • Farming can become a very profitable and profitable business, especially if you position yourself as a manufacturer of organic harmless products. This trend is popular in Western countries and every year it becomes more and more approved with us, however, it is almost impossible to buy homemade eggs or farm dairy products. Many suburbanites who live in private homes and are engaged in agriculture are really like hot cakes. They are met even from trains!
  • Breeding pets- a thoroughbred and highly profitable business that can be organized even in an ordinary city apartment. The offspring of some thoroughbred dogs costs hundreds of thousands of rubles. Just imagine: the puppy has not yet been born, and you already have an order for its sale. There is no need to even talk about profitability here, because the costs of organizing such a business are just animal feed.
  • vending business. Have you noticed vending machines in retail chains, dropping a bill into which you can buy water, chips, a chocolate bar and other products? This is a vending machine. Such devices do not require expensive maintenance or protection (since they are located inside protected facilities). You also don’t have to spend money on advertising, because their very idea is to provide additional services to those who have already come to a particular institution in order to spend money.

Most cost effective

Before talking about profitability, it is necessary to understand the term. Profitability is commonly understood as the efficiency of using resources or money.

Options profitable business in Russia:

  • Thrift store. Difficult economic conditions do not allow millions of Russians to throw out used household appliances or used items in the trash, they would not mind selling them. Social networks or message boards are used. But not everyone has the skills of an advertiser in order to write an ad, and almost all message boards now require a fee for use. A thrift store is a great business that connects sellers of used equipment and used items and buyers.
  • Selling healthy food to lovers healthy lifestyle life. There is a trend in the world: more and more people are becoming vegetarians, vegans, such types of nutrition are gaining momentum that no one had heard of a decade ago, for example, a raw food diet. You can open the production of yeast-free bread, buy from farmers or resell homemade dairy products, organize a delivery service drinking water. Demand for such services is still small, but businesses in this area are characterized by excessive customer attachment. If the buyer liked your flax seed bread, he will most likely become your regular customer, plus he will also bring friends.
  • Pharmacy . Statistics show that the number of sick people in our country is increasing every day. A pharmacy is not only a profitable, but also a highly profitable business. You can open your outlet on a franchise basis and become a small unit of a large pharmaceutical family. Actual business in times of depreciation of the national currency, it may be the opening of a pharmacy of a low price range.

Franchise business: pros and cons

Entrepreneurs, especially beginners, are often frightened by a business plan and organizational issues. What can we say, the thought of the tax is shuddering! There is a way to avoid all these organizational issues - a franchise.

What is a franchise? Imagine you have opened your private kindergarten. You have an author's program, children like it, parents are delighted. Time to open the second one. No sooner said than done. Then the third, fourth, and then in other cities. And then comes the moment when you realize that money is made by sharing your successful experience.

For this purpose, a franchise is being sold, that is, a ready-made business plan that calculates all operating costs, describes what kind of staff is needed, what are the associated costs, and so on.

Will such an offer be in demand if potential novice buyers are burning with the idea of ​​​​creating their own business, and a successful businessman appears in front of their eyes, not just selling another information product, but inviting them to become part of a large company?

The franchise is very popular in our country, but it has its pros and cons.

Franchise benefits:

  • Market research, sociological surveys, deciding whether a business idea will work is the concern of other people. Already thought up, painted and offered on a plate.
  • Lack of entrepreneurial experience is not a problem at all. If there is no official income, the bank will most likely refuse to provide a loan, but the franchisor (franchise seller) will come to the rescue and act as a guarantor.
  • You can immediately see what profit you can count on, and what possible losses. Often, when starting a business, these values, although they are written in the business plan, have nothing to do with the numbers that you have to observe in your accounting statement.

Cons of a franchise:

  • Entry threshold. A franchise is not a gift. No one will give you money to start. The first question a franchise seller will ask is whether you have start-up capital. No? Go, earn, collect.
  • Part of the profits will have to be paid. Royalty is an integral part of any franchise. This is fair, but if two or three years have passed, doing everything yourself, it may be tempting to stop regular contributions to business strategy developers. It will not work: the contract obliges!
  • You have to work. Many start-up entrepreneurs mistakenly believe that a franchise is an opportunity to successfully invest in an existing business project. This is far from the truth and does not intersect with classic investments that are used to generate passive income. Franchise involves hard entrepreneurial work, associated with risks, disadvantages and peculiarities.

Relevance, profitability, payback of a business are not the main characteristics that you should pay attention to when creating a business. The main thing is still your competence and how much you like and how much this or that idea lights you up.

Many people who decide to start their own business cannot immediately count on a large sum to create investments. Do not despair - a business with minimal costs will come to the rescue. Using inexpensive, but profitable business ideas at minimal cost, you can build a truly profitable business of your own.

Profitable ideas for business at the most minimal costs - up to 50,000 rubles.

Start a tea business

Tea products are in great demand and guaranteed sales. Profitability will be up to 600% (due to the lack of competition for real tea). You will need to open an individual entrepreneur, rent a room in a well-known supermarket and purchase popular varieties of Chinese tea at cost.

Let's calculate the expected profit:

  • 20 Pu-erh tablets at cost price 1 tablet - 40 rubles. = 4200 per day.
  • Tea te guan yin at a cost of 200 rubles. for 100 gr. - approximately 3150 per day.
  • Da hong pao at a cost of 300 rubles. for 100 gr. When selling 700 grams per day at a price of 550 rubles. = 1750.
  • Oolong and others can bring about 1500 per day.

So, the total daily income will be 7,600 rubles, and the monthly income - 228,000 (excluding taxes and rent - about 200,000 rubles).

Renting apartments for rent in sublease

Choose a 1-room apartment with a convenient location for those who rent housing for a short period of time (business travelers, tourists), i.e. near the railway station, exhibition center or airport. Next, resolve the issue with its owner and separately with each of the potential tenants by drawing up an appropriate contract.

Even in the worst case, the profit will be 10,000 (i.e., a 100% return per month). 10% will be spent on advertising (posting ads, printing in popular publications).

Cleaning the premises after a change of clients also requires costs (we discard 20% for detergents, various updates and utility bills).

Total - 70% of income monthly (maximum - 120%).

city ​​quest

The project consists in organizing a team game-walker, setting the participants a certain goal, to which they move, receiving hints and completing tasks step by step. The winner is the team that completes the task first.

The average cost of city games is about 1500 per team or 300 rubles. from a person. Teams generally consist of five people.

Even with a pessimistic forecast (for a single game per day with the participation of 2 teams), you can get - 1500 x 2 x 7 = 21,000 per week, which means 84,000 per month.

After deducting 6% income tax 6% (5040 rubles) and staff salaries (20,000 + 5% of profit - 24,200), we get 54,760 rubles. net income for the month.

Making stamps

Every day new firms or their branches are formed, and everyone needs their own seal. The task of the business is to attract customers with offers for the production of high-quality seals. To avoid problems with the law, the client must bring permits along with the print layout.

In order to open this profitable business, you need the following equipment:

  • computer - 30,000;
  • printer - 5,000;
  • program for creating layouts of seals - 2000;
  • exposure chamber - 15,000;
  • car wash - 4,000.

Thus, to start you need 56,000 rubles. With the cost of a copy of the print about 10 rubles, and the market value of about 250 rubles, the net profit will be 240 from one print.

Profit will depend on the number of customers (from 15,000 rubles to 2-3 thousand rubles monthly)

Installation and sale of GSM alarms

You can open another fast and profitable business at minimal cost. Advantages of the idea:

  • not everyone has the opportunity to put their property on guard in non-departmental services.
  • Cellular networks are highly developed and are becoming available even in remote suburbs.
  • GSM alarms have a budget cost and are inexpensive to operate, which makes them attractive to consumers.
  • the possibility of purchasing wireless alarms on Chinese sites at a very low price (from $60).

Their implementation on Russian sites is carried out at a cost of no less than $200 (only for the kit itself).

Ideas with an investment of 50 to 100 thousand

Bath restoration

Installing a new bathtub is a costly process (dismantling, removal, repair with subsequent installation). It is much more profitable to restore the old one. It can be done different ways on which costs will depend.

So, materials for installing an acrylic liner will cost 4500 rubles, and the profit from one such liner is from 1000 to 1200 rubles. When installing 30 acrylic liners per month, the revenue will be 30,000 - 36,000 rubles.

The cost of liquid acrylic will cost about 2600 rubles, and the profit from one bathtub repaired by this method is approximately 800 - 1300. When repairing 20 bathtubs using liquid acrylic, the revenue will be 16,000 - 26,000 rubles, i.e. with the restoration of 50 baths per month, the profit received is from 46,000 to 62,000.

Development of applications for the social network "Vkontakte"

The Flash API platform is supported for programming Vkontakte applications. In this format, you can build your own profitable business at minimal cost directly on the platform of this social network.

It can be various useful programs or games. Earnings are related to the number of votes (1 vote - 7 rubles). It is difficult to create a mega-popular application, but getting several thousand visitors in the first week is real.

Not everyone is able to create an application, but anyone can submit original ideas to professional programmers. So, having spent about 50,000 rubles, you can receive tens of thousands of revenue every month.

Windshield repair

The principle of operation is to fill the cracks with a special polymer, followed by ultraviolet treatment. As a result, the cracks on the glass of the car stick together and become almost invisible. Correctly carried out repairs improve the appearance of damaged glass, as a rule, is 85%.

Repairing a crack often takes no more than 40 minutes, and the owner of the car pays 1/4 of the cost of new glass. Unique glasses can bring the surest profit: glasses of large trucks and rare cars, as well as panoramic windows of buses.

Sale of oxygen cocktails.

Benefits of this idea:

  • free market of services - the niche is practically not occupied and there is an opportunity to open your own profitable business and move quickly;
  • perspective - starting small, you can come to a large-scale project;
  • popularity - oxygen cocktails are a sought-after product, since their benefits are obvious (all systems in the body function much better after taking them).

Oxygen is not only drunk as a cocktail, but also inhaled, so it is better to offer these services in combination (headset and liquid cocktails).

The preferred form of sale is to open a minibar (a small bar counter with high chairs). The starting amount for the launch is from 70 to 100 thousand rubles.

The cost of a serving is about 8 rubles. at a selling price of 50-60 rubles. per serving. The minimum sales volume for the project to generate income is 20-25 cocktails per day.

Production of keys

The field of activity seems insignificant, but the demand is stable and has an expected income.

To open your own business, you will need to rent a small room and certain equipment (2 machines for making keys and programming them for intercoms). The cost of machines is about 60,000 rubles. and higher.

Key templates will cost 3-18 rubles. Production of one key - 100-200. With a good choice of location, 10 customers can be served per day (half of them need 2 keys). With an average price of 150 p. you can earn up to 2250 rubles.

Options with costs from 100 to 200,000

Coffee machines

The purchase of equipment is the main expense item in this vending business. The difference in the cost of new equipment and used equipment is almost two times. At the same time, the reliability characteristics are almost the same. Due to this great idea, you can not only open your own business, but also double your business efficiency, which will make it possible to recoup each of the machines in six months.

For comparison, a new device will pay for itself only a year later, and a used device will not only pay for itself in a year, but also bring 120,000 profits.

honey packing business

To start, you need 120,000 rubles. - approximately this amount will cost a machine for packaging honey. Room rental - about 20,000 per month. One such honey packing site requires 4 people to work (salary - 70,000)

During the season, even with 50% load, it will be possible to package about 45 tons of honey. When purchasing for 100 rubles. and a market price of 130 rubles, the yield will reach 1.350 million rubles.

The cost of plastic packaging for the entire volume will be 720,000 rubles. Even with 50% equipment load, this type of business is able to reach full payback in the first working season, and bring the owner 270,000 (more than 2 times more than the start-up capital).

Repair shops for cell phones, smartphones and communicators

The start will cost up to 200,000 rubles, monthly expenses - up to 100,000, taking into account wages and the purchase of components and spare parts.

Workshop earnings consist of a markup on spare parts (usually above 100%). Money for the work, as a rule, goes to the master's salary. A good volume of orders (10 applications daily) will provide revenue up to 300,000 rubles. per month.

In addition to the premises, like any organization in the service sector, the workshop should indicate its working hours, draw up a price list, create a “consumer corner”.

After registering an individual entrepreneur, do not forget to take care of the fire safety instructions and job description.

Production of plastic cards

It is acceptable to open a profitable business with minimal costs. Plastic cards are: credit, discount cards of shops, certificates, cards of different clubs, etc. That is, your potential customers are shops, clubs, credit and banking institutions.

  • computer - approximately 30,000;
  • printer - 5000;
  • press oven for lamination and sintering - from 60,000;
  • card cutter - from 5,000 (manual) to 60,000 (automatic).

The cost of the card is about 5 rubles. The selling price is about 30 rubles. Usually, the average order consists of 1000 cards. So, from one order, your earnings will be 30,000 - 5,000 = 25,000 rubles. net profit

You can engage in breeding cattle and small cattle, poultry, rabbits, pigs. In addition, the cultivation of agricultural crops (cereals, vegetables, fruits, berries) is also popular. Beekeeping and reproduction, followed by the sale of flowers, can bring big profits. First of all, you need to decide on the direction.

Many people constantly need a product that tends to end. No, the buyers themselves, of course, dream of extending the life of their purchase as long as possible.

But the perpetual motion machine has not yet been created, so you have to replace the finished medicine / shampoo / product and so on to purchase a new one. And this aspiring entrepreneur should take advantage of. So let's look at a few the best options that best meet the requirements mentioned above.

People in Russia, no matter how bitter the truth may sound, have been ill, are ill and will continue to be ill. There is no one more pill for all ailments, which is why there is such a rich assortment on the shelves of pharmacies. You can’t build happiness on someone else’s grief, but a pharmacy is a very profitable business with investments, and you should take a closer look at such a business.

It is only necessary to take into account the location and the basic needs of the population in the district.

For example, demand will be huge in places where the nearest drug store is several kilometers away. And we ourselves know that sometimes a pill of the same painkiller is needed immediately.

Accordingly, if the area is predominantly populated by families with children, the proposal should be in solidarity with their requests. This includes infant formula, various bottles, and pacifiers with diapers. Keep in mind that the activities of pharmacies are subject to licensing, and the license is issued for a specific premises. And this is a business that is not afraid of the crisis.

Pharmacies have a big plus - scalability. Having opened 1 small one today, in the future it will not be difficult to open 1,2,3 more in your city or a couple in a neighboring one.

You can open a pharmacy both on your own and, with the second option, the income will be less, but its implementation is much easier, since the franchisor provides everything you need and teaches you the intricacies and nuances of the business.

2. Medical center

In order not to go far from the topic of drugs, the second option is to consider opening a medical center. Difficult? Yes, this is not the easiest business idea to implement.

But remember government agencies: most of the visitors equate them to one of the branches of hell. Why not show those in need of medical care a new format of service? No queues, all doctors are extremely correct and professional.

Naturally, the key to success will be the choice of a suitable location. Third in a row on one street honey. the center will obviously be superfluous. But even on the outskirts of the city it is not worth opening it. You will have to think in advance of a convenient place.

In particular, attention should be paid to transport and walking distance.

3. Funeral services

Even the best medical center does not guarantee immortality. And in the near future, until scientists find the secret of eternal youth, ritual services will be in demand.

The niche is quite well developed and filled, but high quality and low prices will make your small business project stand out from the competition. This is a promising business, as there are more and more people, and accordingly more people die. Death is usually not expected by anyone, so the funeral process itself can hit the budget.

Offer your customers an installment plan, a discount, and then the profit will become constant and stable.

4. Car service

Moving away from the sad topic, let's remember the car owners. Many of them simply do not have a soul in their transport, choosing the best for their four-wheeled friend. It is worth taking advantage of this and opening a car service. Customers should be attracted not only by reasonable prices, but also by good quality and speed of work. A simple business that is worth opening for a beginner. To start, you need to rent 2 boxes and hire 2 car mechanics.

Important point: it is better to pay them a percentage of the proceeds, usually it is 50-50, but you can also agree on 60% for yourself, 40 for the master.

5. Car wash

This point could be related to the previous one. good business, which can be opened both in a small and in a big city, but we will consider it separately. Not everyone who wants to fix a car wants to wash it. And vice versa. At the same time, it should be noted that a car wash requires much less investment.


Therefore, if your start-up capital will not allow you to immediately create something large-scale, but you definitely want to work with cars, take a closer look at the option.

It is consistently profitable small business with minimal investment. You can start it with only 200,000 - 300,000 rubles ($ 4,000), subject to renting a garage or box for this business.

6. Clothing store

All stores have one meaning: to sell goods. But in our case, we will consider several points of sale of different directions. So what are the hottest clothes these days? One that is of good quality and low price. By the way, you can open a clothing store at minimal cost.

For example, it can be a shop, a stall, a pavilion with only men's underwear.

It is desirable that the range is presented in both small and large sizes. Also, do not forget about the creation of several departments at once: for women, men, children. this one good own business, where the markup on the wholesale price is usually about 300%. It is easy to organize this business and you do not need special knowledge.

7. Cosmetics and perfume shop

Cosmetics and perfumery for the fair sex is always a "sweet spot". For success, it is worth taking care not only of quality, but also of a different price orientation.

8. Grocery store

Yes, yes, we once again consider the store as a business option. And the product point most fully corresponds to what was said at the very beginning: disposable goods are becoming more popular.

choose good, the right place (this is important), open a store, fill the shelves with affordable and excellent quality goods, and you can expect a quick payback.

9. Meat and fish shop

As in the case of a car wash / car service, we are opening a meat and fish store separately from the grocery store. Why? Because this way we can offer our customers the richest choice. The entire sales area is designed specifically for our meat and fish products. This will allow both buyers to attract, and the quality to keep at the proper level. This is one that can be opened from scratch.

10. Homemade Food Store (Natural Products)

About 5 years ago there was not one in my city. Now there are already 6 of them. I live in a small town with a population of only 18,000 people. And none of them closed. 1 such store was opened by my friends 3 years ago. Things are going well for them and they do not plan to close. Of the products they sell homemade sour cream, milk, meat, cottage cheese, dumplings, cheese, etc. It makes no sense to list the entire range, but I will say that it is impressive and the prices are rather big. And even with such a picture, there are always customers.

For example. Sour cream for half a kilo costs them 250 rubles, in the store the usual one is 4 times cheaper. But people buy and are happy.

In another similar store, a large assortment of homemade cakes: eclairs, various cakes, including Napoleon, a huge number of different dishes and salads, ready-made. There is a demand, people buy because many people are too lazy to cook after work.

The most profitable business of the above is difficult to single out. After all, a lot depends, including on the scale. For example, no doubt a meat and fish store of 30 square meters will bring more profit than pharmacy kiosk in 8 sq. m. But still we will try. Based on our experience, the most profitable business today, of the listed ones, is a pharmacy, honey. center, food and clothing store.

The most important choose the right place, 90% of success for this type of business depends on it.

Before starting your business activities, be sure to draw up a detailed business plan in which you describe everything to the smallest detail (consider all questions thoroughly). We hope we answered the question - what kind of business is profitable to do. Good luck dear reader and novice businessman!
