5 Businesses You Can Start With No Skills

Updated: Mar 21



1. English as a Second Language Teacher

There are platforms like VIPKid in which people with no certificates or degree can automatically become English as a second language teachers.


Here is a good article listing the type of companies accepting ESL teachers https://www.teachaway.com/blog/8-amazing-companies-let-you-teach-english-online-from-home


2. Content provider on Upworks & Fiver

This is a field I use constantly and as a post production on these platforms you need absolutely no experience to start, You can do anything from voice over, edit written work, writer, graphic artist, and so much more. All you have to do is give some sample of what you provide for people to see/ hear and your good to go.


3. Writer

There are many companies out there that will pay up to .25+ per word for good content. Writing or ghost writing books. There are also blogging where you can monetize your blogs with adds to provide revenue as well as us blogging as a platform to gain public notoriety as a professional which can help in selling a product or service. Here’s a link on more opportunities with writing



4. Product Review

There are platforms like Billo where you get paid to provide product reviews. Also many don’t realize that they can use your social media platform leverage income reviewing products. As we have toured America selling natural holistic products that combat balding and heals the skin we have had customers ask to do a product reviews. After looking at there profile there are some who we have compensated monetary for their review (and some via free product or giveaway). Though we look at numbers It’s not the numbers you think. Some people may have 100k followers but they have built a superficial fan base that if they promote our product would get us views but not translate to sales. While Some one with 1,500 followers who has genuine post and a following of authentic relationships and dialogs would be a great candidate for us because if they recommend something their friends would be willing to give it a try (especially if the review looks good). In essence don’t cut you self short because you don’t have a huge following just give that business owner a DM and see where it may lead. You may be surprised on business you may received by reaching out and letting business know that you like their product and would like to give them a review for a small fee. Remember you are your greatest asset. Turn Facebook into revenue.

5. Sell your own product or service

I can’t end this list without encourage in those who have a gift and talent that their sitting on hindering themselves from converting their talent to a income stream that can possibly change their family tree. I have the privilege of creating websites for the business of different sizes. Noting brings me more joy than to create for small business. If God has place within you the confidence to share your gift with the world (1Corinthians 10:13 he weights what he gives you) don’t suffocate that with fear of any kind. It’s time to push forward with the vision. I leave you with the bible 15 And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey. 16 Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents. 17 And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two. 18 But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money. 19 After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them. 20 And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more. 21 His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. 22 He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them. 23 His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. 24 Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed: 25 And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine. 26 His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed: 27 Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury. 28 Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents.


Don’t have you gift taken away but use it and live the purpose God has for you. Step out in fear and be courageous.
