Something that won't need a physical location and doesn't require a high skill level or extensive training. One business that fits the bill is a house cleaning business. It's easy to start a house cleaning business; you don't need a lot of capital or experience and, most importantly, it's easy to grow

Here are 7 steps to follow if you want to start a house cleaning business:
