I currently own and run an internet dog boutique, and really enjoy it, but it just doesn’t bring in the big bucks.. I only started 9 months ago, so it hasn’t been forever, but it only makes me a part-time wage, less than 1000 dollars profit a month (it varies, anywhere from 500 – 800 in general). That’s how much I would make working in my city part time, but I just really enjoy it, like I said. My dad already owns and runs his own kitchen cabinet shop, but business has been slow going there.. I’m 22, by the way. I don’t have a degree as of yet, although I am in college.. I don’t think I want to do anything dog-related, but maybe.. My parents also want to open up a specialized sandwich shop, so we’ve thought of that also. Any other ideas? No bakeries or restaurants, they’re just too hard.. Also thought of commercial cleaning services and courier services, as well as daycares, but nothing has really clicked. We really are in the very beginning stages of talk/ideas. Thanx 4ur ideas

I have to create a business plan for one of my classes in college. We have to run our own business and it can be almost anything. The exceptions are sit down restaurants, dorm cleaning and transportation. Many people have done easy things like balloon delivery on birthdays or a bagel shop. What are some other ideas? Thanks for the help!
Thanks for the ideas but im going to need something more realistic for 6 college students in 2 months.
