Best Home Businesses to Start for the Holidays
Starting your own business can be an exciting new venture, and the holidays offer many opportunities for creative money-making pursuits that you can do remotely.
If you’re finding that you have more free time, or need to bring in some extra cash, the holiday season could be a particularly good time to explore some creative ideas.
There can be many advantages to selling goods and services in a remote holiday business. Some of these include:
A holiday business can be a good option for those who lost work. Economic uncertainty opens up many novel needs, including challenges related to celebrating the holidays safely. A small business can be an effective way to introduce creative solutions to issues consumers are currently facing.
In 2020, there was a tremendous growth in e-commerce activity, which continued into the holidays.1 In fact, in its annual holiday shopping survey, the National Retail Federation (NRF) found that 44% more consumers shopped online-only during Thanksgiving weekend in 2020 compared with 2019.
