Need profitable offline business ideas - GoFuckYourself.com

fakenickname · 05-06-2006, 03:50 AM

Looking to do something profitable with a closed down restaurant. Do not want to spend over $10,000 in startup costs. Must be a 9-5 type business. I was thinking a massage parlour, anyone know a thing or two about those? Are they dangerous businesses to get into? Not the best area for anything fancy. Hope to hear some ideas

fakenickname · 05-06-2006, 03:55 AM

Restaurant is also an option but I am not sure how profitable those are, can't be a franchise or anything either.

Do I need to be connected to open a massage/whore house?

aico · 05-06-2006, 03:26 PM

tear it down and build a drive thru espresso hut. Hire some cute girls, and you'll make a fucking killing.

madawgz · 05-06-2006, 03:28 PM

whore house is a good idea!

I guess you did not see the 10k limit.

After Shock Media · 05-06-2006, 03:35 PM

I would maybe go with a hair or nail salon and just rent out the damn booths and get a small cut.

Luc Lonely · 05-06-2006, 03:37 PM

pot smoker palace. Open a coffe shop and sell weed to custumers

Good idea but haircuts sell for $4 in this area

RogerV10 · 05-06-2006, 03:43 PM

You need to tell us more about the area.

What kind of people inhabit it. What is already open around it. ETC

minusonebit · 05-06-2006, 03:43 PM

Open a smoke shop / news stand.
Book store.
Internet Cafe.
Porn shop.
Computer Parts/Service.
Gun store.

Resturants are very profitable if your cook dosent suck. Make a killing on breakfast. Everything has a HUGE markup.

Two eggs over easy: Cost: $0.30 - Retail: $2.95
Bagels: Cost: $0.20 - Retail: $2.10
List goes on.

Where in the fuck do you live?
You talking a barbor shop or a salon for women?

fakenickname · 05-06-2006, 03:50 PM

Male haircuts, it is a pretty cheap area. May $4 was under exaggerating, it's more like $5.

Most sell videos too I think. Lots of $$$ to invest in inventory.

hentchiu · 05-06-2006, 05:56 PM

SUBWAY!!!!!!!! $100K to start....

Dont need to change anything at the govt end

An internet cafe would be sweet if done right. But if it has to close at 6pm then you're fucked there.

If it's in a shitty area, then you might consider a porn shop. lol

Otherwise, maybe a Check & Go! haha

Yeah but most laundromats are in higher crime areas (soccer moms don't use laundromats, crack whores do), which adds a whole new dimension to things. Not the easiest operation in the world.

CC · 05-06-2006, 07:43 PM

I would like to know how exactly to start a restaurant for under 10K. Unless you guys live in Jamaica and are planning on using a shack for your store front, that is. Anyway, I'd like to see the business plan for that one, lol. My husband and I have plans to start a themed restaurant in the future and the cost is more like 100K.

Cash · 05-06-2006, 11:05 PM

Only $10k to start a new biz?!?

exactly what I was thinking....

I am not sure about the 10k part though. I would imagine the cost would be a lot more to open a nice one

fakenickname · 05-07-2006, 02:33 AM

Hookah bar was actually my first idea but this is in Chinatown so there might not be a market. As far as the 10k goes, the place already has a restaurant type setup w/ equipment so the only investment would only be inventory.

restaurants are kinda like bars. they're either hit or miss. its not neccesarily the safest investment, and restaurant work is hard and gross(assuming you plan to actually be at the place yourself)

personally, i prefer investing where i dont have to do an awful lot of physical work to make it profitable. thats my ultimate goal, anyway.

GigoloMason · 05-07-2006, 06:19 AM

Step 1: Collect underwear
Step 2: ???
Step 3: Profit

PS: On 10k alone there's basically no company that you could viablly start, especially if you need to do any sort of renovating which I'd imagine you would. Rent the space.

shack · 05-07-2006, 06:31 AM

With 10k start up?

hrmm

Boot leg porn at the local sunday markets ?

fakenickname · 05-07-2006, 02:51 PM

There are no startup costs, the only costs for me would be inventory, everything else is covered. Rather it not be retail, focusing on some type of service.

RayBonga · 05-07-2006, 03:17 PM

Illegal gambling joint.

If you're in Chinatown it's a sure thing it will work
