Profitable service industries. What business ideas for providing services to the public can be implemented at present? The most popular services in this area

The service industry is a broad business area. To correctly determine a profitable niche, it is necessary to analyze key market indicators. According to the State Statistical Service and other official sources, the most in-demand services are those that are in high demand and consumed in the largest volumes in percentage and value terms.

Analysis of the paid services market

According to Rosstat, in April 2016, paid services worth 679.6 billion rubles were provided to the population of the Russian Federation, in January-April 2016. - by 2668.4 billion rubles. The share of expenses for their payment in consumer expenditures of the population in April 2016. It amounted to 22.1%, which is 0.6% lower than in April 2015.

A comparison of data in percentage and in kind (monetary terms) allows us to identify the most popular and profitable services from the point of view of making a profit.

In monetary terms, the leaders are (in descending order): utilities, transport, communications, household, medical, educational, housing.

Current business model: Opening a company for renting handymen, income 1.7 million rubles. in year .

Positive growth dynamics (in descending order) for the period under review have: hotel, physical education and sports, culture, housing, transport, medical.

Thus, transport, housing and medical services are in greatest demand judging by the volume of provision during the reporting period, have positive growth dynamics and lead in monetary terms.

We do not consider communications and utilities as profitable areas for business because they are provided to the population by specialized organizations, companies and enterprises.

And household ones, as one of the most popular types, judging by the volume of funds received for their provision during the reporting period, we will consider in detail in order to identify those that are in greatest demand.

As a result of analyzing data from the Federal State Statistics Service on household services, we get the following picture. In value terms, the leaders are the maintenance and repair of vehicles, machinery and equipment (RUB 22,757.8 million); repair and construction of housing (RUB 18,532.0 million).

Thus, educational services remain; we will consider the demand for them in the context of preschool institutions.

Preschool education services: opening a private kindergarten

As can be seen in Table 2, the number of preschool education organizations at the end of 2015 decreased by 0.9 thousand.

And the number of pupils, according to Rosstat at the end of 2015, on the contrary, increased to 7160 thousand from 6813.6 thousand registered at the end of 2014. In addition, the number of new buildings significantly exceeds the number of kindergartens capable of serving them.

This is what the economy of the private kindergarten “Interesting Kindergarten” in Mitino looks like in numbers:

Thus, the initial investment in opening a private kindergarten, including renovation of the premises, rental deposit, purchase of equipment, expenses in the first year of operation before reaching self-sufficiency amounted to 15 million rubles. Monthly expenses in the course of operating activities amount to 2 million 950 thousand rubles, this includes: rent, wages, utilities, food, training materials, advertising and marketing. Revenue 3 million 650 thousand rubles, profit before taxes 700 thousand rubles, simplified tax system 15% “Income minus expenses” - 105 thousand rubles, net profit 595 thousand rubles. The actual payback period is 21 months, the planned payback period is 36 months.

Private medical center services

In 2015, the Russian healthcare system, due to the reforms carried out over the past few years, was faced with a completely natural result of the development of the industry. According to a study by the Higher School of Economics, 80% of Russians cannot count on free medical care that meets their needs from the state.

The result of the reforms was: a decrease in the quality and availability of free services, a global reduction in healthcare costs, a decrease in hospital beds by 9.3% on average across the country, a decrease in the number of doctors by 2.2%, and paramedical staff by 2.8%.

Thus, the paid medical services industry is also attractive for investment due to the fact that the state regulates the procedure for including private clinics in the compulsory health insurance (CHI) system. Opening a private medical center is a profitable and in-demand line of business.

In 2015, non-state medical clinics under compulsory medical insurance provided services worth more than 1.2 billion rubles.

According to the general director of the Association of Private Clinics of St. Petersburg, Alexander Solonin, the most popular areas of the industry are gynecology, therapy and dentistry.

Online advertising business

The Russian media industry has been changing its direction over the past few years. Thus, according to the Expert publishing house for 2015, the television advertising market fell by 24% compared to 2014 to 1.7 billion rubles, the radio advertising market decreased by 32% to $189 million.

Online advertising, on the contrary, has a positive trend: the average annual growth rate was 16.2%. According to the PwC forecast, already in 2016, online advertising will leave behind television advertising, reaching $2.12 billion and becoming the new leader in the Russian media market. The main pillar here is contextual advertising - this is exactly the type of advertising that business owners are willing to spend money on during a crisis.

Let's look at how the contextual advertising management business works using the example of the K50 platform, created by young entrepreneurs Stanislav Branovitsky, Ivan Krasnikov, Georgy Ternovsky. This is what the contextual advertising market looks like using the example of the K50 company in numbers:

• investments in K50 amounted to $0.8 million;
• K50 turnover in April 2015 - 210 million rubles;
• K50’s revenue in April 2015 was 2.1 million rubles;
• K50 service offers 4 products;
• 2500 registrations in K50 services;
• 450 active clients use K50 products.

Transport services

According to the Institute of Economics and Transport Development (IEDT), the role of motor transport in the cargo turnover of the Russian Federation has a pronounced growth dynamics. Expert calculations indicate that by 2030, in the total volume of freight turnover in the country, the role of railway transport will fall from 87% to 83%, and road transport will increase from 9% to 11%. The volumes of cargo transportation show the same trends: 20% and 15% for railways and 78% and 83% for road transport. Opening a transport company is a promising line of business.

Today, the unstable financial situation in the country is leading to job cuts. Some people find jobs in new companies after being fired, while others are looking for ways to organize their own profitable business. After reading the article, you will find out which business is profitable to open in Russia with small investments.

What business is in demand now?

Supply is formed by demand. This is one of the main economic laws, therefore, in order to open the most popular business, you need to determine what products and services the population of your city needs. It is believed that in any region, the greatest demand is for organizations engaged in repairs, replacement of plumbing fixtures, and sales of household chemicals and products. An analysis of the market for services and goods will help you find out more precisely which business is relevant now.

Service Demand

According to statistics, employment agencies are very popular: the crisis and constant layoffs increase the need for such organizations. Demand for the services of plumbers, hairdressers, electricians and funeral directors remains unchanged. In Moscow and other large cities, companies providing commercial transportation come first in terms of the number of requests. Organizations from the beauty and health sector are only 1% behind in the top. By finding out which services are in greatest demand among the population, you can organize a profitable business.

What is profitable to sell now

Aspiring entrepreneurs like to wonder what people are in demand right now. Current products remain the same. Example of high-margin products: flowers, drinks, jewelry, handmade products. Such goods are distinguished by stable demand, low production and storage costs. Popular alcoholic drinks are considered popular products.

What kind of business is in demand now in a small town?

Beginning entrepreneurs bypass small settlements. In their opinion, business there brings in very little income. This is partly true, because salaries there are lower than in big cities. The costs of renting and purchasing premises will also be less than in big cities, so you can organize your own business with minimal financial costs.

The most popular business in a small town is a general hairdressing salon. In addition to hairdressers, there should be manicure-pedicurists, cosmetologists and massage therapists. Shoe and furniture repair shops are popular regardless of the financial situation of the country, because... people tend to restore old things because they are afraid of spending a lot of money.

Demanded business

Commercial activities are always aimed at satisfying people's needs or stimulating demand. Any promising business is built on this. You can create demand for products artificially by advertising products on the street and on television. The relevance of the entrepreneurial field and whether business decisions are effective still play a significant role.

Profitable business

Commercial activities should generate maximum income with minimal cash investments and exploitation of various resources. These features characterize a highly profitable business. During a crisis, you should not open enterprises engaged in the production of any products. Their profitability will be low, the risks will be high, and you will see real profits only after a few years. The service sector is considered successful.

Super profitable business

All aspiring entrepreneurs dream of receiving fabulous money, but few manage to realize this in practice. Some franchises allow you to build a highly profitable business from scratch in just a couple of months. Another way not to save and get a lot of money is to create a completely new and in-demand business for the region. Options for directions: from restoration or car rental to your own consignment store.

Most profitable business

By opening your own bakery in a large city, you can quickly return all the invested funds - in less than 2 months. A similar situation is observed with healthy food restaurants. People are no longer attracted to fast foods. The fastest-paying business is able to return all invested funds within a month. Before starting your own business, study current business ideas, sorting them by profitability indicators for your region - this way you can weed out proposals that will lead to bankruptcy of the company in the future.

Profitable business on the Internet

A distinctive feature of activities on the World Wide Web is the lack of connection to your place of residence. You can look for clients both in your city and outside it, so organizing a profitable business on the Internet is easier than doing it in the real market. A budding entrepreneur does not even need start-up capital. There are several areas of such business:

• provision of online services (programming, design development, accounting, etc.);
• launch of an online store;
• participation in affiliate programs;
• creation and promotion of your information product.

You can create a current business providing services on the Internet if you are a specialist in any field. You need to create a portfolio or launch a business card website where your skills will be described in detail. You can launch an online store without money, acting as an intermediary between foreign sellers and buyers from Russia. Products will be sold with a slight markup.

Profitable business with minimal investment

Many people want to make a profit without spending their own money, but not everyone succeeds. In practice, a profitable business with minimal investment can be organized if you offer products of your own production, engage in intellectual work, or act as an intermediary, organizing purchase and sale transactions. Some open collection points for glass containers or scrap metal in the garage.

Network marketing also refers to earning money with small investments. You can develop your business at home by recruiting interested people from the population. If the idea of ​​creating a network of independent distributors does not appeal to you, then you can take up farming: the demand for basic food products that are not harmful from an environmental point of view is high among residents of megacities.

Rating of profitable businesses in Russia

Commercial activity must be profitable. The proceeds must cover the costs of further development of the organization, wages of employees and the entrepreneur’s own needs. If this is not observed, then the business is considered unprofitable. Some entrepreneurs initially choose unprofitable areas, which leads to loss of finance over time. By studying the rating of small businesses by profitability in Russia, you can avoid this. The TOP 5 best entrepreneurs include:

1. Private auditors. The economic state of the country and changes in legislation have virtually no effect on the popularity of auditing. This list also includes consulting services.
2. Clinics of narrow specialization. Various types of cosmetology and medical procedures are in demand among residents of all cities, so this field of activity is classified as highly profitable.
3. Accounting services. Needed by both small companies and large enterprises. The only disadvantage of this industry today is high competition.
4. Law firms. A highly profitable business with well-qualified specialists and many cases resolved in favor of clients.
5. Microcredit. This niche has gained popularity over the past 3 years. Money is issued on the security of products produced by enterprises or any property.

Business profitability by industry

Economic performance indicators determine whether a company will survive or not. They need to be taken into account when choosing the direction of the enterprise. Economic efficiency indicators determine the company's development strategy. Below is a table showing business profitability by industry:

Business branch	Percentage of profitable organizations
Transport/logistics

Video: the most profitable business with minimal investment

The most demanded business - factors that determine the demand for a business + 9 ideas.

Let's be honest - almost any person does not want to work “for his uncle” all his life, and then at one fine moment the understanding comes that it is time to start his own business.

But even during periods of economic prosperity, no one wants to discover an idea that will obviously fail.

What then can we say about times of crisis, when the slightest mistake can lead to losses.

Therefore, any entrepreneurial activity must begin with the search and selection of an idea.

And if you are reading this article, you probably want to know which most wanted business.

Let's try to answer your question.

How is business demand determined?

It’s impossible to say which business is in demand and which is not.

Remember the expression: “For every product there is a buyer”?

So this phrase clearly demonstrates the fact that all people are different, and what one needs will be absolutely useless for another.

In general, whether a business is in demand or not is influenced by the following factors:

• country and regions within it;
• purchasing power of the population;
• season and fashion.

What does this mean?

For example, in Ecuador no one needs fur coats or down jackets, and in winter in the north of Russia they will only buy a swimsuit on sale.

Therefore, the choice of business idea should be approached taking into account the above.

So that you can determine the demand for a business, study the following points:

• the presence and dynamics of demand for goods and services;
• availability of necessary raw materials and materials;
• presence of competitors and their pricing policy;
• short payback periods.

Thus, you just need to study the market and understand what the population of a particular country and locality needs.

For example, in a big city there will always be a demand for a business selling fresh vegetables and fruits, while in a village almost everyone has their own garden, and its residents buy only those products that they cannot grow in their garden beds.

What is required from an entrepreneur for his business to become in demand?

When starting a business, you should not rely only on luck.

Success depends not only on the influence of external factors; the entrepreneur himself must make every effort to be noticed.

• First, to determine whether a business is in demand or not, you need to select several ideas and analyze the demand for them.

Secondly, the entrepreneur must convey to the consumer the importance of his goods or services, and prove that his business will really be in demand.

This is especially true for some new products on the market.

To do this, you need to conduct a competent and active advertising campaign.

• Thirdly, you will need to hire qualified personnel who can find an approach to each client and convince him that he needs a product or service.

The most popular business in various fields

As has already become clear, there is no single “recipe” for business that can be called the most popular, if only because human needs are multifaceted.

Basically, three areas of business activity can be distinguished:

• trade;
• production;

Let us give examples of different types of business ideas that will be in demand among the population.

The most popular business in the trade sector

We will not give examples in the form of opening stores with food or clothing.

Regardless of the income of the population in a given period, these goods will still be in demand among the population, people will simply try to save.

Still, I would like to pay attention to more interesting ideas for in-demand business in modern times.

1. Thrift store.

“Business is the art of extracting money from someone else’s pocket without resorting to violence.”
Max Amsterdam

This popular business is especially relevant during times of crisis, both for entrepreneurs and for buyers.

At such a time, not every person can afford expensive new clothes, so they are looking for cheaper options to dress.

You can open regular, children's or elite.

And investments to implement such an idea will be minimal, since you will need to invest in paperwork and renting premises.

Although even the second costs can be eliminated if you create an online store in the form of a VK or Instagram page.

At first, you don’t even need to hire anyone, so the entrepreneur himself can take on the responsibilities of the seller.

The idea of ​​a consignment store is that people bring in their clothes and set their own price for them, and you are required to sell them and take your commission.

When you open an IM, you will simply post information about the goods you sell online and give buyers the seller’s contacts.

2. Selling organic and healthy food.

In the last few years, one can notice a trend of increasing popularity in the field of fitness and proper nutrition.

In addition, more and more people are beginning to take care of their health and are studying the composition of food products, which may even consist of half of various food additives and preservatives.

But to open an eco-store that is truly in demand among the population, you will have to invest quite large sums of money, advertise your business well, and also find suppliers who specialize in the production of healthy food.

So you can sell:

• organic fruits and vegetables;
• cereals and cereals;
• bakery;
• natural sugar substitutes;
• vegetable and butter;
• dairy products;
• fresh meat without stabilizers;
• natural sweets;
• tea and coffee;
• dried fruits and more.

You can also open your own online store and sell through it non-perishable products that can be sent by mail.

3. Opening a pharmacy.

Of course, it’s not as simple as a food kiosk, but if you want and have the funds, this is a great idea for a truly in-demand business.

The purchase of medicines and medicines is carried out every day, because people, unfortunately, do not stop getting sick.

To work in this area, an entrepreneur will need to collect a number of permits, obtain a license and hire workers with higher pharmaceutical education.

Investments in opening a pharmacy are really large, and we are not talking about expensive rent and paying decent salaries to employees, but about the purchase of goods - medicines of various types, medicinal cosmetics and other related products.

Popular business in manufacturing

The manufacturing industry is quite diverse and touches various areas of life, and anyone who wants to have their own business will be able to find an idea for a sought-after business.

1. Processing industries.

Our planet increasingly resembles a warehouse of used things, this problem is especially relevant in post-Soviet countries where the recycling industry is poorly developed.

This area includes the idea of ​​rubber tires, glass containers, plastic, paper.

The profitability of such a business lies in the low cost of raw materials and the presence of a small number of competitors, as well as the demand for processed products on the market.

To open such a truly relevant and in-demand business, you need to:

• decide on the direction of activity;
• study the production process;
• rent a production facility outside the city;
• purchase appropriate equipment;
• hire staff;
• find those who need processed products.

2. Production of building materials.

Even during a crisis, cities continue to be built, and people make repairs in their homes.

And for this you need various building materials - wood, dry building mixtures, bricks, metal profiles, tiles and much more.

Therefore, if you open even a small production of building materials, you can be sure that you will have a sought-after business.

If you have a small start-up capital, then choose one direction and work on its development at first.

At first, you can sell finished goods to small hardware stores.

But as your business expands, don’t be afraid to enter the regional and then state markets.

But for you to succeed, produce only high-quality building materials, and then you will always have buyers.

3. Charcoal production.

The scope of application of charcoal is quite wide.

It is used in the construction industry - for the production of varnishes, construction powders, in production - as fuel, in everyday life - for starting fires in fireplaces and barbecues.

Thus, this production can be classified as a sought-after business, since it has diverse consumers.

To implement this idea, you do not need to rent a large room and buy expensive equipment.

To begin with, you can limit yourself to 20 sq.m. and a stove costing 350-450 thousand rubles.

In-demand service business

The service industry is especially attractive to those who like to communicate with people.

This includes entertainment, catering, household, financial, legal, insurance, hotel, postal and other services.

So, you will know the “kitchen” of the business from the inside, which will make your life much easier.

1. Delivery service.

The demand for business in this service sector is associated with the constant increase in the number of online stores and the number of orders.

You can provide large goods, small parcels, prepared food, correspondence.

At the initial stage, you can engage in such business at the city level, that is, work with local online stores, catering establishments, offices and the general population.

To begin with, you will need an office space and a car - an easy one for the delivery of small parcels and correspondence and a cargo one for large parcels.

Also, franchising is highly developed in this business, so if you don’t want to start from scratch, you can buy a franchise.

2. Consulting: accounting, auditing and legal services.

This is truly the most popular business, as various individual entrepreneurs and companies are constantly opening.

But not everyone understands accounting and jurisprudence issues.

Firstly, many do not want to risk their money and are ready to entrust these matters to specialists; secondly, there is no need to hire individual workers, it is enough to conclude contracts with such companies.

The business of providing consulting services is carried out by those who have appropriate education and experience in this field.

Here you can act alone, or you can find the same specialists who will also be interested in their independence.

3. Website development.

Any self-respecting company or firm should have its own website.

But not everyone understands how to create it, so they resort to the services of webmasters.

Therefore, website development services are a truly in-demand business, especially in modern times.

But still, the market is experiencing a shortage of competent and creative specialists, since most of them often offer to work according to a standard scheme.

In addition, most companies that have been operating for a long time have their own websites, but they need to be improved and constantly developed.

This once again confirms the fact that having knowledge in this area, you can safely start your own business.

You can act alone, but it’s still better to team up with other webmasters and open a company.

Firstly, you will reduce costs significantly, and secondly, you will work in a team.

Current business ideas for 2017 are collected in the video:

The proposed ideas are just a part of what can be discovered most wanted business.

This also includes sewing/repairing clothes and shoes, construction and repair work, PR, maintenance of electronic equipment and much more that the population needs.

Think about what you would like to do, choose a field, analyze your idea, and start acting.

Types of services in demand in Russia

It is difficult to name the most popular legal services or any others. Today, the population is actively interested in all offers, so do not expect a drop in demand in 2017. Although we can identify several of the most popular areas, conditionally dividing them into separate groups:

• household;
• informational;
• advertising;
• transport;
• specialized.

The division is arbitrary, but it will tell entrepreneurs what is profitable to do in 2016. After which you can successfully invest money in a new project, expecting its quick payback and subsequent profit. It's time to consider each area in detail, noting the demand of the population.

Household

Household services have always been in demand. They are in deserved demand, since people need constant help in certain matters. Moreover, this direction is interesting for business because clients are ready to contact the same company again if they received service at the highest level. What is it about?

• Minor home repairs;
• Cosmetology services;
• Hairdressing services;
• Studio;
• Shoe repair;
• Dry cleaning.

Caring for the elderly and bedridden patients is another option that can be classified as household services. Now the whole world regularly uses such professional help. Rarely does the population have enough of its own skills to cope freely with such tasks. In such situations, it is much more profitable to contact a company than to try to cope with the task without outside help.

An interesting fact is the difference in the initial investment. Even the most profitable businesses may require little start-up capital. So the activity remains accessible to almost all people. It’s enough to think about what personal skills you can use to ensure your income in order to immediately start your own business.

Information

Information services are especially popular in Europe today. At first, consultation on various issues was provided free of charge, so no one talked about possible profits. Now the situation has changed completely, so that new sources of income have emerged for specialists. In which areas is it more profitable to work?

• Recruitment;
• Search for clients;
• Audit;
• Consulting on special issues;
• Collection of information;
• Educational courses and trainings.

The most popular information services in Russia in 2016 are well known to the population. Most often they are required by businessmen who need to obtain a lot of different data. So, when opening a new office, you should find employees, evaluate the location of the premises and prepare a business plan. No one in Moscow deals with such issues on their own, trying not to waste time on empty actions.

Auditing and collecting information about competitors is gradually gaining unexpected popularity. In Europe, specialists in these areas are considered indispensable, because after receiving useful data, they draw up reports that suggest the next steps of the manager. Now even an experienced lawyer will be needed by any company trying not to miss a single chance for development.

Promotional

Even the most popular legal services cannot match the profitability of advertising. It is unlikely that you will be able to find an unprofitable agency where professionals constantly strive for success. They independently achieve new heights using a non-standard approach. What opportunities are suitable for business?

• Placement of banners;
• Promoter services;
• Animation services;
• Internet advertising;
• Organization of events.

Television, radio and print media have partially lost their relevance. The demand for useful services to the population suggests that it makes sense to turn to this area even in the absence of professional skills. The reason for this is the breadth of understanding of the issue. Thus, individual agencies remain only intermediaries, but their owners also receive a decent income.

Internet advertising has created a lot of questions. When opening your own virtual company, you have to invest minimal funds. The main thing is to find out in advance which services are more attractive to users. At first, people were attracted to creating websites, but today copywriting and promotion have come to the fore. If you learn to work with complex principles or assemble a team of professionals, you can start making huge profits in a short time.

Transport

When the most popular household services in Russia are discussed, the work of transport workers is often forgotten. At the end of 2016, they turned out to be most useful and necessary for people. The reason for the misunderstanding is an incorrect assessment of the area, which is considered too narrowly. What is included in this type?

• Cargo transportation;
• Moving;
• Passenger Transportation;
• Taxi companies;
• Express delivery.

The list goes on if you want to know what potential clients in the market are usually interested in. The only problem for many beginning businessmen is the initial investment. It is not always possible to invest a decent amount, and assessing the return on investment sometimes forces you to abandon your own venture.

Professionals will say that you can spend a little money at first if you organize your activities correctly. Thus, the work of a large taxi fleet is often limited to just a few dispatchers at home and service automation. Investments remain minimal, but after a few months the owner begins to count profits.

Specialized

Specialized services have always been discussed endlessly. It is difficult to evaluate the most attractive offers, since in such an area only the cheapest offers are usually in demand. Potential clients do not understand that you have to pay for quality, but still successful companies also work in this direction. What services do they offer?

• Medical;
• Legal;
• Sexual;
• Technical;
• Construction.

I don't want to stop, but I have to. It is not possible to list a complete list of professions. In modern times, each specialist can independently provide assistance to clients for a fee, so that restrictions disappear immediately. For a long time, masters have preferred to refuse patronage so as not to give away part of their personal earnings.

Why is the list unlimited? Since each direction is divided into several others. Medical services are a great example. Families will immediately remember the numerous private clinics opened in all regions of the country. Only they will forget about private massage therapists, rehabilitation sanatoriums, private ambulances, and so on.

What to do if you want to open your own business? It is best to offer services to the public with a minimum of initial investment. After this, you will be able to calmly reveal your potential, showing what success you can achieve by doing what you love.
