One of the best partners you can find is in your inner circle. Joining forces with your partner can give you good returns and fruits. Here are some strategies and business ideas to launch a business with the love of your life.
Starting a business as a couple can be both exciting and challenging. If before the altar we swear loyalty and eternal love, why not do it before a business venture?
If you have made the decision to start a business together, here are some ideas based on business accelerators like LoftWork.
1. Online fitness classes
After the pandemic, remote work and health care has become a very profitable niche. Leverage your fitness knowledge to create, for example, a YouTube channel or TikTok account to offer online fitness classes.
If you don’t have any skills or sport is not something you usually practice, we have more options.
2. Tour guide in your city
Borders have opened up and many people want to explore the world again. In addition, thanks to remote work, there has been a phenomenon known as “gentrification”, which consists of the displacement of the local population due to the arrival of people with more purchasing power, according to the UN.
In Mexico, for example, foreigners have arrived to settle in towns of great beauty. While for many it represents a time of crisis because rents and real estate values are rising, you can see it as an opportunity by offering your services as a local tour guide.
Most people don’t know how to get around or what to see when they first arrive to settle down. There is a niche market here that is little exploited, but very profitable.
3. Catering service
Do you both like to cook? A catering business may be the option, but you can take it to the next level. You can prepare home-cooked meals for social or corporate events at a competitive cost! Start by reaching out to people close to you who need this service for, say, a baby shower, a business meeting, etc.
4. Personal care
The demand for health and beauty services is high. If you both have experience in this field, for example, in giving massages or guided meditation, offering these services at home can be profitable.
Additionally, you can create a website to showcase your services and provide online consultations. Social media can also work in your favor.
5. Grow your own produce and sell it
If you have knowledge of how to plant and grow vegetables and fruits, start an all-natural produce business on a small scale. The organic sector has been in high demand lately and sells well.
