Business Opportunities Check out our list of more than 100 ways to be your own boss.

Business opportunities offer tools or training to help you start your own business, but usually at a lower cost and with fewer restrictions than a franchise. You'll find business opportunities in a variety of industries listed here, divided into three main categories: Dealerships and Licensing Opportunities, Network Marketing/Direct Sales, and Vending Machines.

For more information, be sure to check out our guide, as well as the FTC's page on how to research a business opportunity.
