Sand, water and cement can
Sand, water and cement can be transformed into sculptures, statues, pillars, counter tops and costs pennies to produce. A low investment profitable business idea and as easy to start as taking a small rubber mold, filling it up with ingredients that cost you pennies, let it dry and selling them for $80- $100.00 over and over again.
When you think of a concrete business you probably think big cement trucks, slabs of concrete and millions of dollars to start up, it can become that big but it does not have to, you can actually get started right in your backyard or garage. And the beauty of this small business is that the margins are huge, and you really don't need specialized experience or training. You are taking these 4 raw materials, namely sand, gravel, Portland cement and water, all of them free or very inexpensive, mixing them together,then transforming them into a statue, column, birdbath, garden bench or whatever, and people will pay anywhere from 10 to 100 times what you paid for the raw materials. There are literally hundreds of ways to transform sand, water, gravel and Portland cement into money we'll show you a few of those today.
One of the first small businesses my wife and I started a long, long time ago was a landscaping company. Eventually we began including concrete statues in our service offerings as an upsell to customers. So birdbaths, statuary, Buddha heads, columns, you name it, and people love this kind of stuff in their yards. After getting tired of paying so much for these items, even at wholesale prices we looked into making them ourselves. It was surprisingly easy, and our margins now became huge because it costs almost nothing for the raw materials.
You have probably seen these types of concrete sculptures and statues all over, at local businesses, in peoples yards, a lot of people even have the smaller concrete sculptures like the lanterns in the interior of their homes. But you probably didnt know how these statues are made or where they came from.
So you buy molds, and there are molds available for almost anything you can think of, angels, fountains, pillars, statuary, pagodas, animals and more. Once you make a few of these you can sell your products on local classified sites like kijiji or craiglist using free ads, you can sell these wholesale to local garden centers, you can sell these at swap meets or flea markets, you can sell these to landscaping companies. We eventually had several local commercial clients who would buy 5-10 of these a month. If your prices are good people will buy these. Because these are so heavy, shipping is expensive so I wouldnt recommend this as an online business, but people do sell these online as well. Here are some small Pagodas listed on Wayfair, these are currently a very popular item you can see they are selling for hundreds of dollars, a more ornate one here for $700. And here is a listing on Alibaba for a similar pagoda concrete mold, you can buy 2 of these for $50 and crank out probably dozens of pagodas before your molds wear out. If you do go this route there are ways to lighten the final product by mixing things like styrofoam in your mix to make it lighter for shipping.
Depending on your market and budget you can start with smaller molds and smaller items, this is a small angel mold we used to have, then work your way up to some of the bigger more complex molds like the water fountains or big statues that sell for many hundreds or even thousands of dollars, but these are more difficult to work with and the molds are quite expesnive.
you can actually make your own molds. regular viewers to the channel might remember in older videos I had a Buddha head behind me. Well my wife took that Buddha head to make a concrete mold. You cover it with Brushable polyurethane rubber, let it dry, and you now have a mold for concrete that you can make hundreds of Buddha heads to sell that literally cot you pennies. This one we only use at home for our own personal use, here is one in our own garden, and the original piece could be trademarked so be careful and make sure of that before you make them.
