My Idea of an Optimal Business Model (Devised in 2020)

Rents/sells products/services customers will always want/need

Provides little opportunity for competition (effectively eliminating it, preferably) or significantly separates itself from existing competitors with unique and unparalleled benefits

Demands a relatively low initial financial contribution

Generates revenue through a steady stream of passive income (positive cash flow)

Requires just a few (if any) full-time employees and pays affordable wages/salary

Offers a goods or services that cannot be otherwise acquired by patrons without highly specialized knowledge/training

Creates loyalty programs/incentives to prioritize customer satisfaction/retention

Takes advantage of digital/online marketing and sales

Uses crowdfunding platforms to minimize sacrifice of equity/profits to venture capital investment groups

Represents a cash-intensive industry

Permits quick liquidation of major assets (if/when necessary)

Involves a low-maintenance operation that can be easily inherited/managed by future offspring/relatives

Potential suggestions include: sports bar, night club, car wash/detailing/repair, barber shop, fitness center/gym, coffee/tea cafe, pressure washing, landscaping, pet grooming, personal training, tattoo parlor, dry cleaning/laundromat, apartment complex
