When I say ‘Introverts”: ‘shy’, ’loner’, ’socially awkward’ are some of the words that come first thing in our mind. Though this is true but it’s not the whole story!!
Introverts will say no to a party to finish a book they started reading, they will do anything to avoid saying a simple “hi” to a stranger, they will love a cup of coffee in a closed room than to have a tea party with a room full of people. We don’t blame them for that. Everyone is different and everyone is to be respected for who they are.
As they are prone to avoid human contacts or will say no to attend a crowded meetings, that’s why we came up with some great business plans for them. Following is the list of things that can do as a business:
1. Writing
Grab a cup of coffee, scan your mind and write it down on a piece of paper in a closed room. Now, that’s when an introvert will scream “Heaven do exists!!”. If you have a flair for writing, be a copy writer, a content writer or an author.
Go out and get some freelancing work, it doesn’t require any formal education but a constant motivation is needed. Your writing business needs a little investment and if done right, can give you loads of money in returns. The only key is: market yourself properly and establish networks then only your name will come out, which is necessary to have a thriving writing business.
2. Accounting and Bookkeeping Services
This work required extreme level of focus or concentration as, the matter of someone’s finance cannot be taken lightly, and that’s where your introvert personality will come to the rescue. Being an introvert, you love doing a job that needs to done all alone with focus and most importantly, no human contacts.
3. Tech Support
If you are well versed with trending technology, there are many people out there that are in need of your skills. Gear up and go out there, offer people the tech support they need and earn some money.
If you love creating or designing using technology, graphic designing or web designing for instance will be the right option for you. Don’t worry, if you don’t have any professional degree in these, self learn graphic or web designing.
It can simply be put in this way, know what you can do, hone your skills and offer top-notch services to the needy.
With little investment, get your business started with a bang.
4. Photography
Photography is another beautiful profession that needs lots of focus, concentration and do not forget the persistence and patience that it needs (sometimes you have to wait for hours before you take that perfect shot). If you are an introvert, chances are you already are the master of all those qualities.
So, go and grab a camera, start clicking the world around you, shoot for websites, publications or news channels, sell rights of your photos. You can start giving lectures or organize classes to teach, if you become really skilled.
5. Consulting services
Another greatest feature of being an introvert is the listening skills and deep understanding level. Why not use your characteristic traits for a better cause: for helping people in nee!
