Flyering Agency
Flyering and numerous other offline marketing strategies continue to be just as effective as digital alternatives despite the rise of online marketing (both in terms of cost and ROI). Particularly flyering is an excellent way for companies to swiftly reach huge numbers of potential clients, whether by having employees hand out flyers on the high street or by focusing on residential areas (this is quite common in the food delivery business).
You'll need a low-cost, high-quality printer, printing supplies (paper, card, ink, etc.), a basic to good degree of graphic design proficiency for designing flyers, as well as contractors to supply huge quantities of flyers, in order to launch a flyering firm (students are a good bet this kind of work as they generally need flexible hours). You can start this business from your home and market it by handing out flyers to nearby businesses (as a demonstration of how effective it can be).
You can also promote your business using whiteboard animation videos. For making videos you can use simple yet powerful whiteboard animation softwares like DoodleMaker or Doodly along with voiceover using various speech to text softwares or giving your own voice overs.
There is always a need for people to distribute flyers in public spaces or through letterbox drops. Many reputable flyering companies demand exorbitant rates for this straightforward marketing strategy; undercut them and you'll get a lot of business (it comes a lot down to price in the flyering game).
printing
When it comes to printing big quantities of printed goods (business cards, pamphlets, posters), using home or regular business printers is frequently expensive, of poor quality, and slow. Commercial printers enable people and companies to order printing in bulk at high quality, effective, and affordable prices because of this.
You'll need a printing area and experience with a commercial printer if you want to establish a printing business. You can operate this business from home if you send prints to clients directly, but if you want a location where you can meet clients, you'll need a storefront or office with a receptionist.
Local small businesses are the ideal audience for marketing this company because they frequently have recurring needs for commercial printing throughout the year. You're going to need a good eCommerce platform, order management system, and payment gateways set up if you wish to grow and target the bigger UK market.
Aside from the initial investment, running a printing firm is extremely inexpensive; the main expenses are the maintenance fees of the equipment, the cost of the ink you use, and other printing supplies.
A design firm
Finding talented designers is among the most difficult tasks in the business sector. At my last startup, we went through roughly five design teams before we found someone amazing. Get a Behance profile, start bragging about how wonderful you are, and start getting requests if you have a penchant for web or marketing design.
You'll need a strong portfolio in place before you can launch a design agency, and you should definitely incorporate as well. You'll also need a gorgeous website and a design focus (unless you want to run a full-service design firm that handles UX, UI, app design, web design, marketing materials, and branded stationary). Additionally, you'll need to develop a pitch, briefs, and standardised reporting as well as a sales pipeline management system.
There is a high need for design work as the majority of small to medium firms don't have in-house design teams. To advertise this business initially, you can personally contact local businesses via phone, post, or telephone and offer your services. Additionally, you should list your company on Google, Bing, and all the other major listing sites in addition to using local PPC.
Refinishing furniture
Even when it is worn, many individuals find it difficult to part with old furniture, especially if it is a pricey sofa or armchair. This issue is resolved by furniture refinishers who replace textiles, repair damaged legs, and overall give furniture a new lease on life.
You'll need knowledge of carpentry, fabrics, interior design, and access to a workshop with a wide variety of tools if you want to start a business repairing furniture. Since search engines and online directories are the main ways that people find furniture refinishers, it is worthwhile to invest in a website from the start.
To ensure that your ranking for relevant keywords, you should concentrate on local search advertising and content marketing while marketing this firm (i.e. furniture refinishing London).
Training Company
You can offer offline and online training to businesses whose personnel needs training or development if you have in-depth understanding of the subject. Businesses in the UK spend close to £3 billion annually on training. This is so that employees can become effective workers and stay that way.
You must choose a training specialisation (such as sales, marketing, or finance), create a brand and website, and establish standard training programmes (that can be customised to client needs) before you can start a training business. Additionally, you must develop learning materials to go along with your programmes. If you want to build a digital course, you must structure it and produce video versions of your programmes (Linda, an online training company, was acquired by Linked for over £1 billion).
Your level of competence and capacity to attract clients will determine the success of your training firm (this business idea effectively requires HR mixed in with business development). In order to market, you should first determine which businesses need your training services (for example, a telecom company needs sales training to boost revenue), then determine which decision-makers (HR and other Directors) in these organisations you should approach and promote your training initiatives to.
Long-term training businesses rely largely on repeat business and recurrent clients for success, so be sure the training value you provide goes above and beyond expectations. You may even create your own learning platform and charge for access to your training programmes in order to further diversify your revenue streams and expand.
