     Think about the skills you possess right now. Try to think of skills that you can do on your own without the help of equipment or maybe equipment you already own. Think about who would want that skill. What kind of service you could provide to a potential customer that would require that skill.

     If you already have a "day job" make sure you keep it before you launch your business full time. The majority of business owners started their business part-time while keeping their full-time jobs until the business was successful enough for them to quit. Basically its just a good idea. This will dramatically decrease your stress in the beginning and reduce any kind of financial worries that you may get while waiting for the next customer. Don't rush it. Take your time and let your business grow until its making enough money to sustain your cost of living expenses.

     Selling a service is the best when starting a business with no money. Trying to sell a product or opening a store is almost impossible with no start up money. So again consider the skills you already have and think about what kind of service you can offer to your potential customers.
