Inc.com just published an interesting slide on The Best Industries for Starting a Business Right Now – http://www.inc.com/ss/best-industries-starting-business-right-now

Perhaps chocolates serve some neuropsychological cravings our brains require to function in current economic crisis, Candy is the first suggestion of making it big as a business. According to the slide, the list of promising ventures are:

  1. Candy
  2. iPhone Apps
  3. Health-Care Technology
  4. Self Improvement
  5. Software as a Service
  6. Home Health Care
  7. Yoga Products and Services
  8. Technical and Trade Schools
  9. Fast-Casual Dining
  10. Green Construction
  11. Niche Consulting
  12. Education Technology
  13. Temporary Staffing Firms
  14. Government Services
  15. Accounting Services
  16. Repair Services
  17. Energy

I do not know how inc.com measures the top 17 industries. By job creation? demands and supply trends? or simply counting the number of small businesses that are successful.

But it’s comforting to see that technology seems to be good winning strategy for starting a business.

Now if candies are doing well in bad times, then I wonder how the gym business are doing these days?
