If you want to break off the restrictive environment of the home and the authority of a boss, then starting a business from home might just be the right path for you. However, working for yourself doesn’t mean having to come up with a brand-new idea every single time. Instead, you might want to consider these out-of-the-box, self-employment opportunities.

Buy and sell

It’s one of the simplest things to do on the internet and one of the most profitable if you’re able to do it right. Buy and sell businesses operate through eBay, Amazon and a ton of other ecommerce sites. They’re all about identifying items at a premium and finding the opportunity to sell them at a profit, even if it’s a little profit. Doing this is better helped by having an expertise in some areas of product, from knowing the retail price to knowing the value for the average consumer of that product. Profiting in buying and selling is all about volume. No single product is going to make you a grand. You need to have an organized system of finding, buying, selling, and delivering to work on a bulk scale. But once you do organize that, the money practically makes itself.

Use your words

If you have a passion of any sorts, then the internet is the best place to express that. Whether it’s an intense knowledge and insight on an area or industry or a lifetime of valuable tips, a blog can be the perfect way to spread the word. And yes, you can get paid to blog. Guest posting and affiliate marketing are two easy ways to monetize it early. But as the brand of a blog soars, so do the extra revenue options. Bloggers have made money from offline events and online webinar appearances, from influencer marketing, and even from selling their own books. It takes time to build that presence, but it can make you plenty of money when you have it.

Make use of that camera

If you have a passion for taking photos of your everyday, then there’s money to be made from that, too. Plenty of blogs, sites, and businesses want high-quality photos without having to pay for them. And there are other businesses and sites that are willing to provide them. You can help by selling them your stock photography. The higher quality your images, the higher the prestige of the site that will buy them and, of course, the more you can get for them.

Work in offices across the world

If you’re good at admin but you just can’t stand staying still in one work environment, then you don’t have to let your skills go to waste. There are businesses of all kinds and sizes that could use your organizational skills to help improve their productivity and streamline their business. If you become a virtual assistant, you can market your skills to business owners of all kinds, helping them tackle big projects or simply get on an even keel when their workload is too much for them to handle.

These business ideas might sound like a breeze to you, but as with any business, they take work. There are no get rich quick schemes. Instead, there are tried-and-tested ideas that can become tremendously profitable if you’re willing to put the work in with them. For a lot of people, that’s still a lot better than chafing in a work environment they can’t stand for a boss they don’t like.
