An excellent low investment small business anyone can start is buying and selling handicrafts. Generally, handicrafts are made in rural areas. However, glitzy showrooms charge exorbitant rates for the stuff, which they usually procure fairly cheap. You too can enter this huge market by buying handicrafts from different regions near you and selling them at reasonable rates. Once again, the market for handicrafts is always high because they are also given away as gifts or used for home and office décor.
