Five ways of Making Money Offline

There are hundreds of ways of making quick money in the 'real' world that anyone can do. The reason that not everyone makes money in this way is that they either can't be bothered to try or have other priorities.

Here are just five examples of ways of making money offline.

1) Wash cars - Washing cars is one the of the most simple, cash in hand, businesses out there. Anyone can do it as long as they have a sponge and a bucket. If you charge between £5 and £10 per car (depending on how you rate your cleaning ability) then say you wash 20 cars that's £100-£200 turnover. Minus the maximum cost of £5 for a bucket and sponge and your profit is between £95 and £195... Easy Money.

2) Clean Windows - Very similar idea to cleaning cars obviously. The start up costs for this are slightly more however if you wish to use real window cleaning equipment. This does however mean you can charge more anywhere between £10-20 for the downstairs windows of a house, add another £20 for upstairs windows and you've doubled your money. Lets say you manage to do 10 houses in the few hours you have spare means you could be earning up to £400 (10 houses, upstairs and downstairs at £20 each).

3) Mow lawns - Once again a very simple idea, if you have a lawn mower charge £5 per lawn, 10 lawns in the few hours you have spare, £50 in your pocket.

4) Offer a Courier service to local business' - Most professional courier service's charge a high premium on same day delivery of goods, offer to do the same task for less... undercut the competition. This business model will work particularly well if you live in a large city and go to small businesses that are less likely to have contracts already with other firms.

5) Offer your services as a personal trainer - If you are fit, active and have a basic knowledge of how to get fit this method of money making can be very cheap and profitable. Design yourself some business cards and have them printed from somewhere like Vista Print, go round and post them through a few doors suggesting that you charge £20-30 per hour training. Ask your client what they want to achieve and make a basic exercise plan for them. When you meet be confident and help them to complete the exercise plan. Easy.
