3. Start Trading Forex.
Just like the physical trading of goods and services, currency trading is a great way to make online.
In fact, it worked so well for so many people in 2023 and that’s why I’m including it here.
Currency trading involves the buying of one currency and simultaneously selling another.
When you buy a currency in Forex, you are predicting that the asset that you are trading will rise above your strike price. If it does, you make profits.
On the same note, when you sell currency pairs your prediction is, that the asset will fall below your market entry point. If it does, you make profits.

As I have reiterated in my previous posts, the cosmetics business is lucrative.
So profitable that you would easily become rich overnight selling common stuff like – Primer, lip balm and lipstick, concealer, face powder, mascara, highlights, and eye shadows… to name but a few.

An eCommerce business is a business that allows the buying and selling of goods and services over the Internet.
Funds are also shared electronically over the internet.
Primarily, an eCommerce transaction could happen between a business and a business or a business and a customer.
Examples of the most popular business to business (B2B) platforms in the world include: –
- eJuices – which helps sellers sell direct.
- Baby Tula for wholesalers.

If you have a few hundred dollars to start an eCommerce business, don’t spend it all on website design.
Because it doesn’t end with having the best website. After designing the website and posting your products, you will have to market the website to get traffic and to sell.
eCommerce businesses are as many business ideas from home as they are businesses that you can pay for office spaces for.
19. Join The Airbnb Business to rent out Rooms & Houses.
If you have a house that often spends the whole year empty and unattended, and you only get to use it in December when you go back to the village for holidays, rent it out.
You can list it for holiday renting on platforms such as Virbo, Airbnb, Vacasa… name it.
And the process is simple. Just sign up for an account, upload your house for renting then wait for these sites to do the magic.
In 2019 Airbnb reported over 500 million shillings paid to Kenyans who turned their houses into holiday rooms.
You could also earn with this business in 2024.
20. Start Your Blogging Business.
If you like sharing your views, airing other people’s grievances, or generally helping others grow, why not start your blogging business in 2024?
Much as it can take time to grow an audience and to become perfect doing it, you will eventually get there with consistency.
I only started blogging in 2018. And in my first year in the blogging business, I almost did $15,000 in revenue.
Interestingly, a blog is something you can build on your own. From scratch. But if you need help with the development process, you can also opt to pay me to help you.
Recommended web hosting platform – Bluehost.
Here’s what you get from the deal if I help you. Contact me.
And it will only cost you $100.
21. Become a Voiceover Artist.
As a voice-over artist, your job will be to narrate scripts for ads, movies, YouTube videos, or poetic music.
It’s much like being a speaking ghost.
You can start the voice artistry business on your own in 2024. Only you may have challenges getting clients to work with for starters.
Not to worry though, there are a number of freelancing sites working with voice-over artists on a rev-share basis.
They even take kids for kid roles.
Example: – backstage, kids casting, and mandy.com.
22. Start a Business for Teaching English Abroad and Online.
If you are fluent in English or have a degree in linguistics you can start an online teaching business for the English language.
This opportunity is also available for those who want to leave the country and go teach English in Foreign countries.
However, you’d then need to take certification for Teaching English as a Foreign Language (also known as TEFL).
Not to worry though, you will be paid to travel if you opt to relocate, you will get international work experience in your CV, and through experience, cultural awareness, and interacting with the global community; you can become proficient in other international languages too.
What you’ll need to teach English Abroad in 2024.
- A bachelor’s degree.
- TEFL certificate.
- A passport from an English-speaking country.
23. Start a Barbershop and Salon Business.
While these are two different businesses which you can start separately, if you have a fixed budget that would not allow you to rent different business premises; just have everything under one roof.
This might even turn out to be a competitive advantage if you get a family that wants to spend time together while taking care of their hair business.
Because then you can serve all of them at the same place.
24. Start an Interior Design Business.
Starting an interior design business doesn’t require you to have a degree in interior design, but having any certification in this field would be a competitive edge for the business.
With such certifications in place, you can get more jobs and earn well, over $50,000 early decorating the interiors of homes and businesses.
25. Become a Graphics Designer.
Small businesses in this era need graphic designers to help them convey information visually: – through logos, advertisements, websites, and posters.
And there are quite a number of them (new and existing businesses).
A simple logo designed in Kenya goes for as little as $65 and could cost $100 max.
If you have designing skills, start a business for graphic designing and earn up to Ksh. 5,000,000 in 2024.
26. Start a Copywriting Business in 2024.
Copywriting involves writing texts for advertising and other forms of marketing.
These texts are aimed at increasing brand awareness and persuading the target audience to take action on either: – buying products or subscribing to services…
To get your business up and running and to become an authority copywriter, you need to have a degree in marketing, English, advertising, or communication.
But guess what, if you have enough money to start the business and to employ qualified people, no one will care about your qualifications.
And you can make more than Ksh. 5,000,000 yearly running your own copywriting business in 2024.
27. Start a Courier Service Business in 2024.
If you live in Nairobi and you have a bike or at least a hundred thousand shillings to buy one, consider starting a local courier service in 2023.
Offer bike pick-ups and drop-offs for retail stores and if the business starts booming, get more bikes to scale your business.
28. Video Production Business Ideas for Beginners.
Not so long ago I started a YouTube channel for this blog. That’s because in 2024 we want to produce as many blogging, freelance, and Forex videos as text content.
But do you know what our problem is, we are not video producers; neither are we video editors. And guess where that puts us with our video projects, business process outsourcing.
If you start a video production business in 2024, you can work for us and for very many other businesses facing the same challenge.
Make sure you have video production equipment to charge better rates.
29. Make Furniture.
Unlike all the other small businesses in this list that require low income to start, the furniture business may require way more capital to start.
At least Ksh. 500,000 for the first display of furniture. You can make the rest to make your profits.
In Kenya, you just need to identify a good location by the side of a busy road. Build a temporary furniture showroom and boom. You are in business.
30. Electronic Repair Business Ideas for Beginners.
Average electronic repair personnel makes $57,890 plus yearly. Guess what this business stat portrays, businesses that employ these electronic repair personnel make way more.
In 2024 you can start your own electronic repair store to take a share of this lucrative market.
You don’t need to be an electronic repair person yourself, you can hire skilled people locally to work for you.
31. Become an App Designer.
App designing businesses were popular at the ended decade. And they are still needed in 2024.
If you have skills in software development why not make apps to make money in 2024?
Since there are apps for almost anything, just make sure that whatever idea you decide to perfect, you make it more interesting.
You can then earn passive income off your app monetization and possibly become a millionaire doing what you love.
32. Start a Tour Agency Business.
While this kind of business takes too long to break even – due to competition by major players and seasonality, a tour and guide agency is a good business to start in 2024.
Especially since the political, social, and economic conditions in most African countries are good.
Interestingly, you will only need money for connectivity, rent, and a laptop to start.
To start long in this kind of business though, you will need to market your business, devise ways to retain existing clients, and find a competitive advantage over the rest of the agents in the business.
33. Start a Consultancy Service for Anything.
If you are a professional in your field, why not start a consultancy service in 2024?
If you studied business in the university, become a business consultant – for those in accountancy, become accounting consultants…
34. Phone Accessories Business.
A phones and phone accessories business is another best business to start in Kenya in 2024.
Unknown to many people, selling phones and phone accessories are as much profitable as selling groceries in malls. And you can start this kind of business with as little as Ksh. 500,000 and grow it over time.
A tip for success in this kind of business is to sell genuine products and at affordable prices.
35. Computers Business.
If you are Koko about tech and you’d like to start a small business in 2023, why not sell computers?
New are refurbished computers are easy to come by in wholesales in Nairobi and the profit margins are quite good too.
On average, you can make up to Ksh. 5,000 from sales of a single machine.
36. Become a Virtual Assistant.
The virtual assistance business is one of the small business ideas that Kenyans started in 2019.
In this year, you can still become a virtual assistant and make money as a self-employed person providing professional administrative, technical, or creative (social) assistance to clients remotely from your home office.
Ideally, a virtual assistant is paid between a dollar and $100 per hour.
I doubt you don’t want to make $100 an hour on the side.
37. Social Media Management.
Social media management is one of those great businesses to start in Kenya.
It does not need any capital and you can work remotely — doing things as simple as updating Facebook on behalf of a client, replying to Facebook messages; engaging clients on Instagram, and oftentimes creating and spearheading campaigns.
The gig is a no-brainer and it pays between $15 and $50 per hour.
38. Become a Google Paid Ads Specialist.
There are lots of online and offline businesses that need the traffic to their businesses so badly but haven’t quite figured out how to achieve this.
The best thing, they are willing to pay for whatever it costs to get attention to their products, brands, offers, and sometimes the entire business.
If you know how to google paid ads, you can become a paid ads specialist and these businesses grow by advising clients or even running ads for them.
As a Google paid ads specialist, you can earn between $100 and $200 an hour or even more if the project is huge.
39. Start Your Property Management Agency.
Property management is one of the best business ideas in Kenya that isn’t 100% exploited.
Property agents earn a commission for property management and rent collection. Often 10% of rental value.
If you can convince landlords to trust you with their buildings and their cash then this is a great business to start in 2024.
40. Sell Gigs on Fiver.
If you are new to freelancing and you’d like to earn without so much experience online then Fiver might just be the platform to sign up for.
In Fiver, you will be able to complete simple tasks that range from logo design to creating animations, or websites and get paid well for your efforts.
41. Start an Online Dating Consultancy Service.
Did you know that Tinder, the number 1 dating site in the world has 57 million users from across the world?
Do you know what else is true?
4.1 million Tinder subscribers pay for a premium Tinder Plus and Tinder Gold.
This goes to show that very many people find it difficult to find dates and would go the extra mile – even paying for dating services to get help.
With all these in mind, why not start your online dating consultancy service to help these people and be paid in the process?
Plus, it would be fun.

Going this route allows you to test and backtest your idea.
It gives you enough time to understand if your business idea is viable.
If it ain’t viable, this is the time to bounce off. If it is viable be flexible enough to offer it more time and resources for growth.
c. Decide on good software for your business.
Has your business grown past a side hustle status?
It’s now time to make it more efficient for faster growth.
This is when you start sourcing software to help with important tasks such as – analytics, project management, accounting, bookkeeping, email marketing, and other basic day-to-day tasks.
Going for this software ensures your business is ready for growth.
d. Create a business plan
You don’t want to shift your business from being a side hustle to a fully operational business without a business plan.
Once you have proven your business idea and found out if it’s viable, it is now time to draw up your business plan.
If you are new to this, your business plan should include the following: –
- An executive summary
- Business model.
- Market condition.
- Products and services.
- Operations and management.
- Marketing and sales strategy.
- Financial plan.
- Appendix.
e. Register your business
In 2024 you don’t want to do business without making it legal.
Once you have decided to do business in whichever country you are in, go ahead and register it.
In Kenya, you can register any business structure you want on citizen.go.ke.
f. Create a bank account for your business.
Once you have registered your business on eCitizen, download your business certificate and use it to open a bank account.
The bank may also need a PIN certificate.
If you recently just registered your business, chances are that the registrar of companies also automatically registered your business for a PIN certificate.
Login to the KRA portal to download your company’s KRA pin.
Why is it important to create a business account?
- Keeping your personal and business finances separate makes bookkeeping and tax preparation easier.
- Having a business bank account also helps separate your personal from your business finances thus showing you your business’s cash flow and financial health.
g. Test if your business works well from home.
Find out if your business works well from home.
Is it an online-based business? Well, that could work.
Is it a hardware business? You will need to find a bigger place for the stock.
h. Go Physical
If you started as a home-based business and your business has scaled, it may now be time to go physical.
Find a nice location for your business.
i. Make money.
If you have done everything checking our list of how to start a small business in 2024, now it is time to make money.
Be your boss.
