Any business, no matter how big or how small, starts out with an idea. The ideas were non-tangible things that entrepreneurs started up into real live businesses. Similarly, home based business entrepreneurs need ideas to start up. Perhaps you can take these ideas and turn them into money making businesses? Anyone with a computer, the internet, and a pulse can make them happen.

Idea #1: Start up a home based business by selling things on E-bay. Research what is selling on E-bay and get involved in that niche by buying wholesale and selling for profit. Learn the tips and tricks of how to effectively sell on E-bay and how to maximize your profits.

Idea #2: Find out about a topic that people want information on and would pay for that kind of information. Write an e-book or a report that contains the information that the people are looking for, and then sell it.

Idea #3: Buy or otherwise obtain private label rights products/articles/books/etc. You can do whatever you please with these. You can rewrite the books to your own taste and resell it for 100% profit. If you have a lot of PLR articles about a certain topic, you could compile those into a book for reselling.

Idea #4: Start up your own online store. More and more people are buying things online, so you could cash in on this. What exactly would you like to sell and to who would you sell it to?

Idea #5: Build websites for other people. Some people are too afraid to learn programming with HTML, no matter how many books they read or how many courses they take. You might have experience with websites or you can learn HTML from free resources. I know someone who got paid $75 for designing just one site, so there's money to be made in this field.

Idea #6: Another home based business for an entrepreneur to start up is a service-based business. Perhaps you know how to get a complete idiot's site to the top 10 search engine rankings for a certain keyword. There are people will pay money for that, you just have to put your business in front of them. Perhaps you can give consulting services in a certain area, or can do other services that people outsource. What other services can you think of that you can provide for money?

Idea #7: This is a popular one: join an affiliate program, and and get into the business of affiliate marketing. You promote products from these affiliate programs, and get paid commissions when you refer sales and sign-ups. If you can't create your own product or service you should look into this.

These are seven great ideas for entrepreneur start up. But these are just a tiny sample as to what kinds of ideas are available to be turned into home based businesses. Use one of these ideas, or come up with your own, and start your own business.
