9 Profitable Offline Home Business Ideas For Women

We all know that there are literally dozens of ways to make money online and start an online business, but not everyone wants to run an online business.

You can still start a business and be 'home-based' with an offline business, however not that many people talk about starting an offline business.

So this is what this article is about.

I'm going to go over ten home business ideas which do not rely on the Internet.

As you'll soon see that most of these businesses are where you offer a service. So you'll be trading your time for money.

1. A House Cleaning Service

This is so quick and easy to set up and I believe that just about anyone can start a cleaning service with very minimal costs to start.

I have a free 5,000 word guide detailing the exact steps to start and profit with your own cleaning business. It’s in a blog post so you don’t even have to give me your email address to read it.

2. A Dog Walking Service

This is another very easy and very low cost service to start. In fact, you can probably start with zero money if you use word of mouth as your advertising. Otherwise you can get some leaflets printed and leave them in vets or other buildings where you know where dog lovers go.

A dog walking business let’s dog lovers not only exercise the dogs, but it will keep you fit too.

3. A Cake Decorating Service

If you love baking and do it for fun, then why not offer it as a service? And if you are creative, and have patience, then you could also offer a cake (themed) decorating service.

This is really popular for children’s parties where they want a Thomas the Tank cake or a Frozen themed cake.

4. A Mobile Hairdressing Service

If you’re a trained hairdresser then cut out the costs of a shop and do it freelance with your car. You could ask your clients to invite their friends along, and to bring a bottle of wine, so you could do a few peoples’ hair all in one afternoon.

5. A Mobile Beauty Service

This is very similar to hairdressing. Just make sure you’re qualified to do the treatments on clients.

6. A Bookkeeping Service

If this is your profession, why not offer freelance bookkeeping as a side-hustle to make some extra money. Eventually as you build up your client-base you could even replace your job with your freelance business.

7. Making & Selling Jewelry

If you love crafts and making things, then why not make jewelry and sell it at craft fairs or online. You can buy jewelry making kits so it’s not that difficult to create lovely appealing jewelry that people will want to buy.

You could even specialize in a specific theme for your jewelry such as gothic jewelry or contemporary.

8. Direct Marketing Party Plan

If you’re a sociable person and love to be around people then why not run your own direct marketing party plan business.

There are literally hundreds of different products to sell in this field, including jewelry, homewares and cosmetics.

9. Home Tutoring

If you have a qualification in any subject matter that can be taught then this is a very profitable home business.

Think of students at schools and colleges who need some extra one-on-one tuition. This can be done by you visiting their homes, they come to you or you can even do this online now.

So there you have it, nine home-based business ideas that you can start with very little or no investment needed.

I hope that these can get you thinking in other areas too.
