How the business opportunity finder works
There are thousands of franchises, home-based businesses, affiliate programs, distributorships and direct sales companies listed on SmartBizOpps. Reading every one is not realistic, so the finder does the sorting for you.

Listings that fit your answers come first, and featured listings appear first when matches are equal.

Business opportunity finder questions
Is the finder free to use?
Yes. The finder is free and you do not need an account to use it. Requesting information from a company is optional and is done from that listing page.
How does it choose matches?
It compares your answers with the cost and category details in each listing. Listings that share limited detail are shown in a separate group so you can still review them.
Why do franchises only show for some budgets?
Franchises on SmartBizOpps start at $5,000 and many cost more, so they appear when your budget reaches that level.
Does SmartBizOpps endorse the matches?
No. SmartBizOpps lists business opportunities and does not endorse any of them. Matches are based on the information each listing provides, and results are not a promise of income.
What should I ask before I invest?
Ask for every cost in writing, including fees, minimums and renewals. Ask what training and support you receive, and talk to people who already run the business. The Federal Trade Commission explains your rights in its Business Opportunity Rule.
Own a business opportunity?
List it on SmartBizOpps and share your fit details, so the right buyers can find you.
