How to build a DIY business with $0?

Question

What would you create as a profitable business if you had a maximum of $50, no contacts, and had to do everything yourself, only with the help of free funds?

I would appreciate any tips and ideas as well as your stories of how you did it.

(Btw this is my current challenge :D)

I would start by offering services on Twitter for instance. Depends on your following of course, you need to have at least a few followers.

It can be something simple like providing feedback on website/app usability, landing page roasting etc. You can offer to do it for free a few times to get traction and then start charging money for it.

Start offering a service lol. This only works if you have a service you can offer of course, but there are so many options there. Doesn't even have to be anything really skilled. You don't necessarily need contacts since *someone* is always looking for help, and there's usually little to no overhead. The thing is that you have to approach it with a business mindset, ie, the service is product. We did an eBook/Notion system about that if you want to check it out!! https://www.producthunt.com/prod... But the big question to answer your question correctly is actually, what kind of business do you want to build? Where there's a will, there's a way
