• 5 BUSINESSES YOU CAN START FOR UNDER $5,000

• In today's tough economy, where jobs and cash are scarce, what are the options? Or is the question, where are the opportunities?

• According to 55 Surefire Businesses You Can Start for Under $5,000 (Entrepreneur Press, www.Entrepreneurpress.com, April 2009, $17.95) they're right outside your door, and if you can come up with $5,000, they're also within your budget.

• Here are five business ideas, each under $5,000, to help you leverage your layoff and land back on your feet:

• Moving Service
  

• A service helping people move is a business worth investigating. According to the website "Our Town, Inc.," 20 percent of the American population moves every year. Americans move an average of 11 times in their lifetimes. And the typical mover has 56 items on their moving "to-do" list.

• Natural Baby Food
  

• Everyone is concerned about what is in the food they feed their children. With talk of pesticides, growth hormones, and genetically engineered and altered plants and seeds, homemade natural baby food is an appealing idea with huge growth potential.

• Online Coupon Site
  

• One area that is growing online is online couponing--after all, more and more people are trying to find good deals, and when that concept is matched with the convenience that the internet brings, it equals a win-win for consumers.

• Online Scholarship Directory
  

• With the costs of higher education outpacing the rate of inflation, students are in constant need of sources of academic funds. As a result, there is a need for websites that feature information about scholarships and grant awards.

• Healthy Fast Food Kiosk
  

• Fast food is here to stay, but even huge fast food franchises have recognized that Americans have become concerned with unhealthy eating habits. Why make consumers shuffle through a fat-laden menu to look for the healthy selections? A small kiosk in the middle of a parking lot on a busy road could become a great destination for those who seek a healthy lunch alternative.
