A 24-hour grocery delivery service online. Not possible without money. 😀👍 You need to spend time, and time = money.

[@kassi669]

I have a question, which you might be interesting to make a video about. How can an app/ service/ idea at a super early beta stage and close to zero marketing worth 100mill. I am talking about "Clubhouse" which is in beta with a few thousand beta users 1.500-5.000 and is valuated 100 mill. How? Why? How can I create such a interest on my product/ idea?

i started my photography business with just a camera and made thousands =) love your advice!

[@sunnymas2656]

A woman started her photography business just with a camera.
She entered boats with tourists, and make photos about the people there.
At a stopover, she left the boat, and printed the photos.
At the end of the tourist tour, she sold her photos to the tourists, when they left the boat.
Hm, I got 500 aluminium photo frames for free......

[@manarbook2053]

Great, can you share your experience because I'm also like photography and I try to sell my photos in Shutterstock but nothing happened😔

[@SiliconValleyGirl]

congrats!!

[@priyanshudhurandhar]

Sir can you also suggest me please !! I also love photography

[@ElvinaMargaryan]

James, that’s great to hear! I’m a junior photographer as well and would like to hear your story too)))

[@OlgaPogozheva]

We started our service-based business with zero, but now that we want to build a product, we need to think carefully where we would get the funds from. Still, I strongly believe that anything is possible. 😎

[@AskMeStartUp]

If your product is great it's easy to convince a manufacturer to cover the expenses upfront for a higher margin. They should be more than likely to accept the deal

[@AlfredoSequeida]

If it's a tech product the good thing is that you can always offer equity, which is not free, but it can be a great way to get the work done.

[@naturalbodymaker]

Hi

[@bryanveIoso]

Watched til the end! I learned that I really need money to start my own business.

[@zezehaute]

I started my soundtrack creation & licensing business with my laptop and a copy of GarageBand. I started making intro soundtracks for You-tubers and companies started contacting me to make music for their media & commercials. Your advice is solid, you have to make the effort to start from somewhere. That brilliant idea 💡 is only brilliant when worked on and shared with everyone.

I started graphic design business. The key value is Ready-to-Use design for home industry or small business, especially F&B. This is because I had a problem with my franchise brand that they charged me more for customise design (that actually I can make it myself). Fortunately, I got around Rp500K or $USD 35 from my first client. So, I will keep going on. Thank you for sharing, Marina :)

I’m planning to start a business of producing stylish eco-friendly bags. I’m 17 y.o. And I started to interest in this sphere recently. But I’m very exited and obsessed with this idea. As for money , honestly, I don’t know yet where I can take them. I think borrow from parents. Only time will tell:)

[@AlfredoSequeida]

Get a job when you can, earn money, produce a prototype, and see who will buy it.
You can even test to see if anyone will buy it at all by reaching put to people that you think might be interested in your product. Facebook groups are great for this.

2) How would you recommend to start these businesses without investing any money?

Hi Marina, I never miss your videos including English Channel. You always give me energy! Thank you so much!
I have started working at Japanese traditional crafts museum. For example, we have dolls made from clay, woven of silk and so on. Once you know the background how it is made, you will be amazed.
I would like to share and sell those crafts. Because it is difficult for craftsmen to keep their business in this modern life. Also it is dangerous to send dolls to foreign countries because they are fragile.
I hope I sell them to people from all over the world for the craftsman!
I am curious what are you interested in about Japan?

Because, only books selling online, has made not enough money, for his business.

Just with a computer and online, to order the books, that his customers wanted.

I wanna just ask that I m going to start a business just like fiverr but a better version of it.. I m going to solve the problem that I face it while hiring a person on that platform.. But worried that Whether this problem is just with me or somebody else??
The problem is that when I hire a freelancer I can't see his/her full work/portfolio on the landing page..is this a real problem??
What do you think Marina? Please Please Reply... ...

going against big platforms is hard because on the internet the winner takes it all.If you are worried about key knowhow then do not use a freelancer. Also, why should fiverr not adopt?

[@saranshkaushik8259]

Здравствуйте Марина
Although whatever you shared was inspiring but possible only in developed countries .Say for example, India where e-commerce is still on its initial stages how can you sell without having any investment.
My mother teaches Art(Asst. Professor) but she really can't sell her products without any investment and online theirs hardly any chance as nobody buys such things online here.
If she wants to target international audience who is willing to buy still there are going to be export expenses/taxes etc.
On the other hand ,If I want to start a business selling DIY products like gifts with personal touches how should I start?

[@SiliconValleyGirl]

You don't pay taxes unless you start making profit (at least in the US). Start with a product that you can sell in your country, adapt your idea. How do you know if international audience needs it? I would simplify as much as possible

[@AlfredoSequeida]

Well, if you can't start anything yet, then don't take the time t figure out how to test it and what you will need to make it work like marketing. But, my question would be why can't you start it now? Just because you are doing something else now does not mean you can't fit starting the business into your schedule. I'm a student and run a business on the side that has turned into an 80k/year revenue business.

Hey Marina I'm Tanish, 19 year old from India. First of all I really like your videos. My Question is, can we raise our first round of investment from Silicon Valley if our idea is not fit for the US market? Or how can we move to SF if our idea is only for South Asian countries.

[@SiliconValleyGirl]

US investors are always looking outside the US. You need to prove that you can grow this product to $100M annual revenue in 4-5 years. India is a huge market!
