Answer 3

Cleaning up dog poop.  You need a plastic scooper and a trash bag.

Answer 4

Grass cutting service. Far less downside than most. In the winter, maybe snowblowing depending on where you live. Both involve getting out & finding customers.

Answer 5

I doubt you'd want a cheap and easy business to start. They're typically unprofitable ventures. You may not lose heaps of savings, but you will expend an inordinate amount of time trying to make a success out of it.

However since you asked for cheap easy businesses to start: Any of the multi-level marketing businesses fit that category, but are sadly a true waste of time.

You could begin a lawn-mowing business or franchise, but the competition is fierce and it still requires machinery to get started.

A window cleaning business can be very lucrative. You need to do a fantastic job, know what you're doing and be quick about it.

An amazing benefit is that the start up costs are tiny.

A big downside is that it's so incredibly repetitive.

Data entry may be good if you're a fast and accurate typist. The work is boring, but you can do it from home and simply transfer the "secure" data file to and from your customer.

Answer 6

Raising mushrooms. 

Basalt rocks sold as massage stones (you only find those around the great lakes region thanks to the glaciers, or in Arizona).

Pet portraits.
