The most profitable directions. The most profitable types of small businesses

When developing a business, an entrepreneur thinks about optimizing his income. Over the past decades, more and more types of businesses have appeared in Russia. Every year, experts make the top profitable businesses.

The Russian Ministry of Economic Development reports that the share of small businesses in the state’s GDP should increase to 30% by 2020. Entrepreneurs are implementing a variety of ideas for small and medium-sized businesses in all Russian regions.

What you need to know before opening

Regardless of their current profession, many people dream of starting their own business.

Most likely, it will be profitable for those who have mastered the profession of financier, accountant or manager.

However, there are many exceptions to this rule.

Before starting your business, it is important to consider the following basic recommendations:

  • create a detailed diagram of expenses that are planned at the first stage,
  • take into account the possibility of competition,
  • choose the type of business that will be as clear as possible for the entrepreneur,

Before choosing a future field of activity, the key points that determine its profitability are highlighted:

  1. time period for return of invested funds,
  2. the chosen business area is characterized by great demand,
  3. optimal level of profitability. Profitability increases in parallel with the volume of services or goods,
  4. a small price threshold, where the purchase of materials helps to increase profitability,
  5. positive degree of capital productivity.

To realize the idea of ​​a small business, you need minimal funds and labor resources. For example, you can gather your friends and start cleaning office and residential premises. You can also successfully carry out repairs. Often people open catering establishments, for example, a fast food kiosk or a bar.

Network marketing has been in demand not so long ago. This business has the principle of selling the service or product produced to the consumer without intermediaries, which greatly increased profits and reduced costs. An example of successful network marketing in the world is the cosmetics company Oriflame.

Distribution company

The top profitable businesses include one type of entrepreneurship – food supply. To start such a business, you should sign a contract with the manufacturer or start looking for a supplier.

Then you need to sign an agreement with retail outlets and supply them with your goods. Next, you need to keep statistics and collect debts for goods.

There is a certain scheme for opening a distribution company:

  • searching for products for distribution,
  • taking over for sale or purchasing,
  • delivery to retail outlets,
  • provision of advertising,
  • control over accounts receivable.

Cleaning service

All you need at the first stage is reliable movers with free time and availability of orders. You can attract students and people who need part-time work to work.

To start the activity of a mobile team of loaders, you need:

  1. post an advertisement about services,
  2. create a database of employees who will quickly arrive on site,
  3. wait for orders.

Recently, the most profitable business has been associated with the medium and small corporate sector. Organizations do not need to hire employees on a permanent basis; it is more profitable to hire them from time to time. In this regard, a mobile team of loaders is a fairly profitable small business.

The team can provide:

  • construction sites,
  • apartment and office moving,
  • Events,
  • purchases of large goods.

Designer notebooks

The most profitable business in Russia is based on the corporate segment. The most popular product in offices is, of course, stationery. Activities that are among the top most profitable businesses are formed based on the needs of office workers.

Experts consider notepads to be a profitable idea, which is among the top ten businesses in terms of ease of implementation and level of demand. The surface of the notebook can be very original, for example, wooden or scorched.

If you are active and constantly look for corporate clients, this activity will generate consistently high income.

Top 20 most promising areas

As a rule, small and medium-sized businesses are the basis of the state's economy. The reason for this is high profits and low costs.

In many ways, the success of a businessman depends on the field of business and preparedness. Before opening a business project, it is advisable to study.

Top most profitable types of small businesses:

  • chiropractors: yield about 15.3%,
  • private audit company: yield 16.5%,
  • specialized clinic: profitability approximately 15%,
  • professional accountant services: yield 14.7%,
  • work with taxes: profitability up to 14.7%,

Next in the ranking of profitable business ideas is manufacturing, the possibilities for organizing which have increased in Russia with the beginning of the import substitution policy. To choose a specific direction, an entrepreneur should take into account geolocation, personal experience and skills, and also evaluate the start-up capital that can be available.

How to choose and organize your business?

In order to understand which business to choose, an entrepreneur needs to take into account the following criteria:

  1. Personal experience. It is advisable to do something in which you have practical skills and knowledge. Otherwise, a businessman may go bankrupt due to a trifle associated, for example, with ignorance of production technology.
  2. Geolocation. The location and population of the chosen location is important. In a metropolis, you can open a modern cafe with oxygen drinks, which will bring profit and find its customers. Such a project cannot exist in a small city or town.
  3. Start-up capital. The scale of the business depends on the size of the financial resources. You can organize your own business with virtually no investment by becoming an intermediary or earning money with your personal skills. To open a small or medium-sized enterprise you will need approximately 100 - 800,000 rubles.

To organize the chosen direction, it is necessary to prepare a business plan, which will display the financial indicators, risks and payback of the project.

The video provides step-by-step instructions on how to choose an idea for organizing your own business. Taken from the channel “Business Youth”.

Choosing a direction of activity

Aspects that need to be taken into account when choosing a direction for activity:

  1. It is desirable that the chosen business matches the gender of the entrepreneur. It is better for a man, and to provide body depilation services to a female cosmetologist. This will create more customer satisfaction, increase the number of customers and, accordingly, increase profits.
  2. The location of the business can be both offline and online. The latter option is rapidly gaining popularity even in small Russian cities.
  3. In addition, your business should bring not only income, but also joy, otherwise the entrepreneur faces moral burnout.

Market and competition analysis

Market analysis includes the following studies:

  • selected goods or services;
  • dynamics of supply and demand;
  • potential buyers;
  • market conditions;
  • the level of competition in the chosen niche with an assessment of one’s own competitiveness.

Market research

Start-up capital

Drawing up a business plan helps an entrepreneur estimate the amount of funds needed, which have the following income channels:

  1. Personal savings. The best option for starting is if you have all or most of the amount required to start the business.
  2. Help from the state. Those enterprises that are associated with agriculture and some other types of activities can receive a subsidy or win a grant. You can find out about which areas are funded and what is needed to receive assistance from the Regional Administration.
  3. Credit. To apply for a bank loan, you need to have a fairly significant collateral - an expensive apartment or other property.
  4. Investments. To find investors, you will need to prepare a business plan with mandatory calculations of the project’s profitability and an indication of the payback period.

Premises and equipment

When choosing a room, you need to consider the following points:

  1. Location relative to the center. Farming can be organized on 8 acres outside the city, away from the roadway. A beauty salon or auto repair shop may be located in a residential area. It is not advisable to locate an expensive clothing boutique far from the center.
  2. Convenient access. It is important to think about what kind of transport will arrive - a truck or a car. It is also necessary to take into account the condition of roads in the winter and spring, otherwise there will be losses associated with weather conditions. For example, it will not be possible to pick up flowers from a greenhouse located outside the city due to heavy snowfall.
  3. Parking. The lack of parking spaces in the immediate radius will cause potential customers to leave for a competitor.
  4. Square. This option should be selected according to the requirements of the business idea. For some areas of production, GOST provides general recommendations.
  5. Possibility of long-term rental. An important point that needs to be discussed in advance, since the entrepreneur may face expensive repairs.

Equipment can be purchased new or used. Before purchasing, it is advisable to study reviews and find out the opinions of several experts. Be sure to pay attention to the availability of warranty service.

Fish farming

The relevance of the business idea is based on the growing popularity of fishing among people of different genders and ages. In addition, fishermen prefer to pay for a guaranteed catch and a comfortable rest near the water.

To make money selling fish or organizing fishing you will need:

  • join a fishing community and/or rent a pond;
  • ensure protection of the area;
  • launch the desired species of fish and provide them with proper care;
  • think through distribution channels in advance.

The following can be offered as competitive advantages:

  • cleaning the catch on site;
  • rental of barbecue and other equipment for cooking.

Growing vegetables, fruits and herbs

You can organize a farm in your own apartment or rent land outside the city. To install 6 greenhouses, a plot of 10 acres is enough.

The relevance of the crop growing business is explained by the following:

  • year-round need of catering enterprises for greens and vegetables;
  • increasing demand for domestic crops;
  • an increase in the number of people adhering to proper nutrition.

The amount of initial investment can range from 5,000 to 100,000 rubles and depends on the following factors:

  • workload;
  • availability of hired labor;
  • material for greenhouses.

A business growing any crops begins to pay off no earlier than 2.5 months from the moment the seeds are sowed. This period is necessary for the full ripening of early types of lettuce and other greens.

Polycarbonate greenhouse - 20,000 rubles

Agency for copywriting, writing business plans and other works

It is possible to organize a center for providing online or offline services. At the initial stage, registration is not required; creating your own group on social networks is enough. You can work independently or distribute orders among other specialists.

There are no financial investments in an online writing business, and profit comes immediately after the work is completed.

The relevance of the direction is due to the partial transition of business to the Internet, the promotion of which requires well-written texts. With their help, the site will be in the top positions of search engines and will be able to attract more Internet users.

As a competitive advantage, you can offer regular customers a discount, or combine copywriting with website creation.

Website development and optimization

To work with websites, you will need to complete layout and copywriting courses. This will help increase your knowledge and competitiveness in your chosen niche.

For self-promotion, it is advisable to prepare a portfolio of your own work, which may consist of the following samples:

  • created websites;
  • information about changes in the dynamics of visits to the Internet resource after specific work done;
  • examples of informational and advertising articles.

Catering point

The relevance of the business idea is as follows:

  • people's need to eat tasty food;
  • lack of opportunity to eat at home.

To organize a food-related business, you will need to obtain permission from the SES.

You can open a concept restaurant (from 500,000 rubles) or set up a sandwich shop (from 100,000 rubles). The latter option is advantageous to install in crowded places and near educational institutions.

Popular ideas for a catering outlet in 2017-2018:

  • pancakes with different fillings;
  • shawarma;
  • Hot Dog;
  • variations of sandwiches.

In addition, to increase competitiveness, it is enough to organize the preparation of set meals at a certain time. Prepared food can be delivered to the customer for an additional fee.

Cosmetology

The relevance of the business area is based on:

  • increasing the number of people taking care of their appearance;
  • growth in the well-being of the population;
  • reduction in the cost of common procedures (peeling, facial massage).

To work in the field of cosmetology, you must complete special courses costing from 10,000 rubles per month. The advantage of a cosmetologist will be having a secondary medical education. To perform complex manipulations (Botox injections), you will need a category of dermatologist.

You can organize a business in the following ways:

  1. Rent space in a beauty salon. In this case, the costs of equipment and advertising are borne by the tenant.
  2. Rent a room or allocate space in your own apartment. You will have to purchase equipment and all necessary materials yourself. To do this, you will need to invest at least 100,000 rubles.

Special scales - 50,000 rubles

Furniture manufacture

The relevance of furniture manufacturing is based on the following:

  • the need for some basic necessities (a bed);
  • desire to receive a product of a certain size and color.

To create furniture, you will need to organize a room with a warehouse and purchase working tools. Initially, you can complete orders yourself, and promote examples of work through your own website or social network. Registration is optional, but in the future you can open a company and hire staff.

As a competitive advantage, you can use the creation of 3D models of the future product for visual demonstration to customers.

Private clinic

A highly profitable business that is gaining popularity every year due to the following aspects:

  • highly qualified specialists;
  • availability of necessary equipment for research and its own laboratory;
  • qualified junior staff;
  • wide range of services provided;
  • no queues.

A private clinic must be opened taking into account convenient access for transport and walking distance from the bus stop. Particular attention should be paid to the experience of doctors and their qualifications.

Investments in your own hospital start from 1 million rubles. The project will pay off within the first year. The main costs are associated with repairs and purchase of equipment.

Competitive advantages may include discounts on procedures and work hours. If funds allow, it would be a good idea to organize a hospital or a visit of specialists with diagnostic equipment to the patient’s home.

Transportation

You can make money on transportation in different ways:

  1. Taxi. An alternative is to register an individual entrepreneur and enter into an agreement with one of the operators serving the city. Earnings will depend on the number of hours. You will need knowledge of the area and a car.
  2. Freight transportation. If you have an appropriate vehicle, you can enter into an agreement with a company that needs drivers with their own cars. As a rule, official registration is not required for employment, but driving experience of more than 5 years is required.

The advantage of carriers may be the cost of services is lower than that of competitors.

Organization of quests for adults

At the initial stage, an adult animator can promote their services through social networks. In the future, you can create your own website and attract other specialists, expanding the range of services provided.

The relevance of the idea lies in the need of adults for intellectual entertainment and the desire to plunge into the holiday atmosphere.

To prepare and conduct quests you need:

  • have a rich imagination and organizational skills;
  • be able to write scripts and think through details;
  • be a charismatic person with a well-spoken speech.

The initial investment in organizing quests for adults consists of the cost of props and telephone communications.

The following can be used as competitive advantages:

  • discounts for legal entities;
  • symbolic gifts for quest participants.

  • quick satisfaction of needs.

To purchase a vending machine and rent space, you will need to invest from 30,000 rubles (excluding the cost of filling).

An entrepreneur will need to register and choose a form of taxation. In most cases, the scheme is simplified - 6%. If related to food, the rate will be 15% of income.

Coffee machine - 27,000 rubles

  • small cafe;
  • disco club;
  • grocery and hardware store;
  • salon;

The video presents interesting ideas for organizing a small business. Taken from the To-biz Business Ideas channel.

In this material:

When it comes to starting a business in Russia, many people are scared. Excuses alluding to corruption, bureaucracy and excessive government influence over entrepreneurs are very much in vogue. Entrepreneurs who have created successful businesses, on the contrary, call Russia, Moscow, St. Petersburg, the best place to create a business. If many have managed to create a business in Russia, it means that doing their own business is justified and profitable!

What business areas are relevant in Russia today?

Let's consider business ideas that will help both experienced and novice entrepreneurs realize their potential.

Service business

Business in the service sector captivates with its simplicity.

In Moscow alone there are more than a thousand different businesses that provide services rather than sell goods.

  • Salon . This is not a new, standard business that does not require any special sophistication. People always need to get their hair cut. To open your own hairdresser you will need premises, several hired employees and inexpensive equipment. A hairdressing salon is a very profitable business, as it does not require the purchase of expensive equipment and high salaries for staff.
  • Beauty saloon . If a person, and especially a woman, came to you with the goal of preening herself, then it is stupid to let her go without offering additional services. And you can earn much more with additional services. A haircut is ordered once every couple of months, but nails, eyebrows, and eyelashes have to be done every week or at least twice a month. You must have noticed that Soviet-style hair salons are gradually disappearing, replaced by numerous beauty salons. This is a logical development of the service with an expansion of the range of services provided.
  • Smartphone repair. Smartphones regularly break down - they fall, glass breaks, and operating system firmware is required. A smartphone repair service will be in great demand, especially if it is located at a crossroads or in a shopping center. All you need is a point, a master and inexpensive equipment.
  • Software development. According to statistical studies, Russians believe that being a programmer is better than being an entrepreneur. What is the demand from a programmer? No tax audits, no bureaucracy, he sits at a computer, writes code and receives a salary of more than one hundred thousand rubles. Everything is true, but such high salaries are formed due to the fact that development customers pay tens of times more. A small software development company spends several million rubles on salaries and earns several tens of millions a month.

Home business

The dream of many is a profitable small business at home.

A few ideas:

  • Production of some products is being established at home. This could be “handmade” products, weaving furniture from wicker, making slippers from flax, or preparing homemade baked goods. The main thing is to find a sales market. It’s worth doing advertising yourself; social networks are perfect for this; another option is to enter into an agreement with the nearest store or outlet.
  • It is not necessary to produce a product, the alternative is to provide a service. Just a few decades ago, it was difficult to imagine how to earn some money while sitting at home. This was the lot of composers and writers. Many Russians are engaged in copywriting, video editing, making videos for YouTube channels, and earn much more than they could earn in “real” life.
  • You can convert your apartment into an office and provide makeup, massage, or stylist services. For example, to work as a massage therapist, you will need to purchase a massage table and inexpensive oil for five thousand rubles. A half-hour massage session in Moscow brings in more than a thousand rubles. This business is good because every modern resident needs a massage. Clients are found both on social networks and among neighbors, just place an ad at the entrance to the entrance.

Internet business

Such is the peculiarity of the Russian person that he is not very attracted to home business, which involves the production of goods. I want to work on the Internet - look at the monitor, press keys on the keyboard, move the mouse and earn income.

Well, that's possible too. A few ideas for a person who does not have any skills and cannot boast of a higher education in the IT field:

  • Vkontakte community- great business. All you have to do is choose a specific niche, such as the psychology of interpersonal relationships, and publish updates regularly. You can earn up to one hundred thousand rubles a month and more. Complete anonymity is allowed: no one will know who owns the group and who makes money from it. The situation is similar with other social networks, but Facebook is not so popular in our country.
  • YouTube channel. It would seem that what is so difficult about filming your life on a video camera or smartphone and regularly posting these videos on the Internet? There is nothing complicated at all, and the numbers that students and even schoolchildren earn are simply amazing. A YouTube channel is obviously a profitable business. It does not require any investment and attracts your audience for free. If you create a channel in a commercial niche, you can monetize your audience by selling training to your subscribers or advertising to them products from an affiliate network, for which you will receive royalties.
  • Online store. Be that as it may, the biggest money is made online through sales. Entrepreneurs make money from the banal resale of Chinese goods purchased from wholesalers. The purchasing platforms are most often Aliexpress or Alibaba. It's easy to find anything on these sites. The markup on trinkets can be hundreds of percent.

The most popular business in Russia

Creating another online store or opening a grocery store are good ideas, but you won’t surprise anyone. It is good to create a business focusing on demand, because compliance with this principle guarantees demand, and where there is demand, there is money.

Russia traditionally lacks quality service. For example, travel agencies are a dime a dozen. They race to offer cheap tours to exotic countries, but the VIP tourism market is practically empty. In order to relax in the Maldives, clients have to book charter flights and use the services of foreign travel companies.

The situation is similar with car service. Not everyone wants to save money when replacing summer tires with winter ones. Speed ​​of service and quality are important to many.

The investment niche is practically empty. Russians don't know where to invest their money. While Americans are actively investing in the stock market, thereby supporting their economy, Russians are purchasing apartments, inflating the national residential real estate market.

The niche of investing in precious metals is practically empty. In India, China, Germany, the USA, South Africa and other rich and poor countries, people buy physical gold. In our country this is almost impossible to do. If there are still instruments for sale (Sberbank branches), then selling a metal bar or gold coin is almost impossible.

It is possible to fill this market, but, of course, active cooperation with government agencies will be required.

There are more than a thousand cities in our country. Most residents would like to move far away; the alternative is to look at their provincial status from a different perspective.

  • Farming can become a very profitable and profitable business, especially if you position yourself as a manufacturer of organic, harmless products. This trend is popular in Western countries and is becoming more and more established here every year, however, it is almost impossible to buy homemade eggs or farm dairy products. For many suburbanites who live in private homes and engage in farming, the supply is in great demand. They are even greeted from trains!
  • Pet breeding- a thoroughbred and highly profitable business that can be organized even in an ordinary city apartment. The offspring of some purebred dogs cost hundreds of thousands of rubles. Just imagine: the puppy has not yet been born, and you already have an order for its sale. There’s no need to even talk about profitability here, because the costs of organizing such a business are just animal feed.
  • Vending business. Have you noticed vending machines in retail chains where you can insert a bill into them and buy water, chips, a chocolate bar and other products? This is a vending machine. Such devices do not require expensive maintenance or security (as they are located inside protected facilities). There is also no need to spend money on advertising, because their very idea is to provide an additional service to those who have already come to a specific establishment with the goal of spending money.

Most cost effective

Before talking about profitability, it is necessary to understand the term. Profitability is usually understood as the efficiency of using resources or funds.

Options for profitable business in Russia:

  • Thrift store. Difficult economic conditions do not allow millions of Russians to throw away used household appliances or used items in the trash; they would not mind selling them. Social networks or message boards are used. But not everyone has the advertising skills to create an ad, and almost all message boards now require a fee for use. A consignment store is a great business that would connect sellers of used equipment and used items with buyers.
  • Selling healthy food to lovers of a healthy lifestyle. There is a trend in the world: more and more people are becoming vegetarians and vegans, and types of nutrition that no one had heard of a decade ago, for example, a raw food diet, are gaining momentum. You can open the production of yeast-free bread, buy from farmers or resell homemade dairy products, or organize a service for the delivery of drinking water. The demand for such services is still small, but businesses in this area are characterized by excessive customer attachment. If a buyer likes your flax seed bread, he will most likely become your regular customer, plus he will also bring friends.
  • Pharmacy . Statistics show that the number of sick people in our country is increasing every day. Pharmacy is not just a profitable, but also a highly profitable business. You can open your own outlet as a franchise and become a small unit of a large pharmaceutical family. A relevant business in times of depreciation of the national currency may be opening a pharmacy in a low price range.

Franchise business: pros and cons

Entrepreneurs, especially beginners, are often intimidated by a business plan and organizational issues. What can we say, the thought of the tax office makes you shiver! There is a way to avoid all these organizational issues - a franchise.

What is a franchise? Let's imagine you opened your own private kindergarten. You have an original program, the kids like it, the parents are delighted. Time to open the second one. No sooner said than done. Then the third, fourth, and then in other cities. And then the moment comes when you understand that money is made by sharing your successful experience.

For this purpose, a franchise is sold, that is, a ready-made business plan in which all operating costs are calculated, what kind of personnel is needed, what associated costs are, and so on.

Will such an offer be in demand if potential novice buyers are eager to create their own business, and a successful businessman appears before their eyes, not just selling another information product, but inviting them to become part of a large company?

The franchise is very popular in our country, but it has its pros and cons.

Franchise advantages:

  • Market research, sociological surveys, deciding whether a business idea will work is the concern of other people. Already thought up, painted and offered on a plate.
  • Lack of entrepreneurial experience is not a problem at all. If there is no official income, the bank will most likely refuse to provide a loan, but the franchisor (franchise seller) will come to the rescue and act as a guarantor.
  • You can immediately see what profits you can expect and what possible losses. Often when starting a business, although these values ​​are written down in the business plan, they have nothing to do with the numbers that you see in your accounting statement.

Disadvantages of the franchise:

  • Entry threshold. A franchise is not a gift. No one will give you money to start. The first question a franchise seller will ask is whether you have start-up capital. No? Go, earn money, collect.
  • Part of the profit will have to be given away. An integral part of any franchise is royalty. This is fair, but if two or three years have passed and you are doing everything yourself, it may be tempting to stop regular contributions by business strategy developers. It won’t work: the contract obliges!
  • I have to work. Many novice entrepreneurs mistakenly believe that a franchise is an opportunity to successfully invest money in an existing business project. This is far from the truth and does not overlap with classic investments that are used to generate passive income. A franchise involves hard entrepreneurial work associated with risks, disadvantages and peculiarities.

Relevance, profitability, payback of a business are not the main characteristics that you should pay attention to when creating a business. The main thing is still your competence and how much you like and how excited you are by this or that idea.

View information, analyze new offers, negotiate with the owner for a convenient viewing time and place advertisements with your services in the same newspapers that you read yourself.

Constantly study sites, adding information about the selected options. You need communication from several operators, a notepad and the Internet. Even if you don’t have a personal car, public transport will help you get to any area of ​​the city.

It is important to be constantly in touch and actively respond to calls from apartment seekers. Next, a standard form of contract is developed that will be convenient for both parties and the cost of services is calculated.

Business idea No. 12. Equipment repair

This direction requires only the acquisition of the necessary tools and experience. Modern equipment tends to break down regularly, which is why repair shops are constantly overloaded. When accepting your order, they set a repair time of 2 weeks, and in most cases even a month.

The main thing is to set deadlines correctly, without forcing people to constantly seek your attention.

The ability to “resurrect” liquid crystal TV screen or microwave oven, “give a second life” refrigerator, iron, teapot, is paid very decently, and there will be no limit to gratitude for quality work done.

Business idea No. 13. Organizing dates

Another direction that is gaining relevance at the present time. The ability to make every meeting memorable will give you the chance to develop by offering new ideas. It’s worth initially thinking about what you will offer your client.

Your task is not just to listen to wishes, but also to offer the best option, complementing it with your own ideas. Browse websites, take notes, study videos, try to add creativity.

Take photographs of the event you are creating and place these shots in your portfolio. Describe each of the invented directions for yourself, confirming it with phone numbers, current addresses and discount cards.

Calculate the cost of your services taking into account the proposed event. It is worth understanding that in this case the customer pays not only for your work, but also for the services of the main contractor.

Business idea No. 14. Food delivery

This type of business will be most suitable for those who know how to offer their services and cook delicious food. Here you need not only to find your future customers, but also to maintain constant contact with them.

The task is to create a small menu, make it more homey, and purchase a minimum set of products. Every day, delivering ready-made lunches, you collect applications for the next day, and then, by the deadline, you again begin delivering them to the specified addresses.

Business idea No. 15. Cargo transportation

This is a direction from the service sector. Having a truck at your disposal, you can place an ad and arrive at a convenient time for the customer to complete the agreed amount of work.

Try to find movers to help you who are ready to work on your terms. The payment system here is simple. Calculation is carried out either per floor or per number of hours worked.

Which business is the most profitable: 5 money areas + profitability calculations + tips for increasing income.

Determining the most profitable industry in the business field is not so easy.

Moreover, when small businesses have been in a rather precarious state for many years.

But not everything is as bad as it seems at first glance.

There are some areas of business activity that have an increased chance of being in demand in Russia.

What is the most profitable business for today?

Both a beginner who is just trying his hand at this path and an experienced businessman who wants to change his occupation want to know the answer to this question.

We will look at the most profitable options for small businesses, calculate the average income and find out what subtleties will help increase revenue several times.

1. Private kindergarten: a profitable business

Today this is one of the most profitable types of business.

The key to success is that even with the existing high competition, there is no need to fight for the client.

At the moment, the demand for private kindergarten services exceeds supply.

Pay attention to the statistics:

And if a business is in demand, it means it is profitable. What about the barrier to entry into business?

Business profitability calculations

According to statistics, the cost of a month's stay for a child in a private kindergarten on a five-day basis is 20,000 - 35,000 rubles.

The costs of opening consist of the following items (consider the option of a kindergarten for 15 pupils):


We must not forget that the entrepreneur will also have to shell out a monthly amount for rent, employee salaries and replenishment of supplies.

This will take about another 200,000 rubles.

Taking into account the average cost of such a service and the accepted size of the group (15 people), the monthly income will be about 300,000 rubles.

Thus, the entrepreneur’s net profit will be about 100,000 rubles per month, and the profitability level will be 70–125%.

How to make a private kindergarten business profitable?


Tip 1. Don’t be lazy to collect the necessary package of documents yourself. This will allow you to avoid spending money on the services of intermediaries.

Also, keeping your paperwork in order will help you avoid financial losses from fines from inspection authorities.

Tip 2. Hire qualified workers who have thoroughly passed a medical examination.

Tip 3. Do not skimp on equipment, as well as on fire alarms.

Remember! This is a business related to the health and life of children, therefore saving and using low-quality materials is strictly prohibited.

2. Driving school - a profitable training business

A car is no longer considered a luxury item. Accordingly, the target audience of driving schools is becoming wider.

Today, such training can be on a par with receiving an education at the most prestigious university in the country.

After all, the cost of driving lessons is, on average, an impressive 65,000 rubles per course!

The most interesting thing is that the operating expenses of the founders of the driving school do not exceed 2,000,000 rubles.

Having made a simple calculation, we can come to the conclusion that the company, with proper management, will receive 100% net annual profit.

This is an indicator of a successful and profitable business.

Advice 1. Give the maximum percentage of success in passing the traffic police exams.

This is achieved through careful selection of teachers and control over the quality of services provided by the business owner.

Tip 2. A good result will be if you do not force students to constantly travel to the classroom.

The teacher can conduct lessons online. Only through this method can you gain a sufficient number of clients.

Indeed, due to their busyness, not all people are able to allocate time for regular visits at the appointed time.

Tip 3. Practical classes must be completed only on serviceable and respectable cars.

This is a significant expense item for an entrepreneur. However, the increase in profits due to this step more than compensates for everything.

In addition, this is a big plus for the reputation of the driving school. A profitable business becomes so due to the number of clients.

If the classrooms are in disrepair and the training vehicle looks more like a pile of scrap metal than a means of transportation, this will clearly not attract people to become your clients.

3. Tennis court is a profitable sports business


If we figure out which business is the most profitable at the moment, we are also guaranteed to turn to the sports industry.

This area of ​​activity will always be in the group of profitable businesses. Why?

Regardless of whether there is a crisis in the country or not, people take care of their health and are willing to pay money for it.

The fashion for proper nutrition, going to the gym, and working out, which appeared 7-10 years ago, is still not losing ground. On the contrary, the industry is only gaining momentum in the Russian market.

Pay attention to the growth in the potential of sports services in recent years:


What if playing sports is a habit developed over the years?

Then increasing the cost of a monthly subscription by 200–300 rubles will not be able to force the client to change his tastes.

Why are we considering the option of renting a tennis court?

The fact is that this type of business in the Russian Federation has remained one of the most profitable for several decades.

The rental amount is influenced by several factors:

  • court location;
  • inventory;
  • coating;
  • service level.

The price of an hour-long lesson can range from 600 to 3,000 rubles.

If you set a “price tag” with an average value (1,500 rubles), and ensure that the sites are filled at the level of 70-80%, the annual business revenue will be 25 million rubles.

Tip 1: Don't design outdoor courts! Business should under no circumstances depend on weather conditions and time of year.

Tip 2. Do not build permanent buildings, as the paperwork process will be very long.

It is best to use tent structures. This is not only easier, but also more mobile (you can create a playground both on the ground and on the roofs of buildings).

Tip 3: Use only high quality materials for your business. Few people want to play with a bent or taped racket.

And also pay special attention to the court surface. Playing tennis is the prerogative of people with money. Such clients appreciate every little detail.

If you keep an eye on it, they will come back again and again.

Tip 4. To make your business more profitable and generate more income, use additional techniques:

  • personal trainer services;
  • groups for children;
  • tennis store;
  • cafe-bar;

Also, do not forget to organize tournaments among club members with symbolic prizes.

This will increase interest in this club, and will also increase attendance (after all, before the competition, everyone will come and train hard).

These tricks will help add another 3-5 million rubles to your annual revenue.

4. Profitable business in the field of tutoring

Almost every person has special skills and knowledge. But this is a ready basis for creating your own profitable business.

A nice bonus: this type of employment requires virtually no investment.

How profitable is a tutoring business?

On average, the amount a tutor receives for one lesson ranges from 900 to 1,900 rubles. This price fluctuation depends on the subject taught.

For example, a Russian language teacher charges about 800 – 1,200 rubles for tutoring, but an English teacher charges from 1,200 – 1,500 rubles.

If a tutor teaches 4 students 2 times a week, then at the end of the month his income can be from 30,000 rubles.

On the one hand, the amount is small. On the other hand, this is only part-time work. The income from it can be saved in order to eventually open full-fledged courses of your own by hiring additional employees.

This will allow you to receive passive income from your business, which is one of the key factors for a profitable business.

Registering a profitable tutoring business


Of course, at the stage when you are simply engaged in tutoring, the activity may not be registered.

But if you rent premises for classes, and even more so plan to create official courses, you can no longer do without registering your activities.

The costs of officially registering a business will be:


It would seem that the advantages of a tutoring business are obvious.

Why is it that only a few teachers from public schools decide to change their school teacher's desk for a profitable business?

  1. Lack of “length of service” and state benefits when working for yourself.
  2. The ability to receive the necessary information related to the taught subject in a timely manner while working at school.
  3. Difficulties associated with advertising activities and attracting clients.

How to make tutoring your profitable business?


Tip 1. You should search for clients for classes via the Internet. And not just search!

Use Skype as a means of communication between the student and you. In the modern world, this practice of tutoring is quite common.

A big advantage: the teacher and student do not have to be in the same city! This allows you to significantly increase your reach of the target audience.

Tip 2. When preparing for the Unified State Exam, focus on high school students. Compose advertisements indicating such a service.

Unless, of course, your subject is included in the list of those required for the exam.

5. Opening a coffee shop as one of the types of profitable business

Most people, buying a cup of coffee for 100–200 rubles, do not even think about its cost and how profitable this business is.

Are you ready to be surprised? Manufacturing a standard one cost the entrepreneur only 15 rubles!

This is exactly what it costs to add to a mug:

  • sugar;
  • coffee;
  • milk;
  • and even chocolate chips on top.

Why is this type of activity considered a profitable business?


An average coffee shop (with an area of ​​50 m2) with customer occupancy at the level of 45–50% sells approximately 60,000 cups per year.

If we convert this figure into monetary equivalent, we will get from 6,000,000 rubles. At the same time, production costs are about 900,000 rubles.

But also from this money it is necessary to deduct expenses for the following needs:

  • rental of premises;
  • remuneration of personnel;
  • communal payments.

All these expenses will total about 3 million rubles. Therefore, net income for the year will be about 2,000,000.

And if you consider that we calculated the cost of only regular coffee (and there are more expensive lattes, hot chocolate and others) + you can additionally sell bars and chocolates, then the profitability of the establishment can be 100%.

How can you double the profitability of your coffee shop business?

Tip 2: Select your staff carefully. Waiters should be friendly and have good diction.

Thanks to the excellent work of the staff, visitors will come back again.

So, which business is the most profitable? The answer is simple: one that will satisfy people's needs.

Do a thorough analysis of the relevance of your idea, draw up a business plan and do not rush to give up if something goes wrong.
