There are really two main options to owning a casino business. One is to purchase a casino business for sale such as an online casino. More and more people are gambling online. A start up of this business can run from less than $200 to over $5,000. It is all dependent on who you want to run it.

There are many franchises with a casino business plan already laid out for you. There are also pre-built poker and casino rooms that can start your online casino business. Either way you will be set up with a web site and given all tools you will need to succeed. However, you will be responsible for all marketing of your web site. Some franchise's offer you proven guidelines to help you market, and others don’t. To market on internet costs money, and more money you put out more hits on your web site.

This is truly a home business. You will make money 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Many online casino business opportunities make 75% to 85% of monthly deposits of your customers. Your good marketing can make this a very lucrative business.

There is also another option, and that is to start a casino business opportunity that caters to employers, corporations, non-profit and civic clubs. It is a growing business that more people are using for fun and profit. You go to a location and create atmosphere of a real casino. Many are willing to pay to have this outlet for their employees or as fund-raisers.

1. Network With Non Competing Businesses This can present a fantastic opportunity for many businesses. Try networking your business with other business owners. Of course, you would not approach someone with business that is in direct competition with yours! There may be several non-competing businesses that appeal to a similar market as your business. For example weight loss, lingerie and child care businesses all appeal to women and do not compete with one another. You may be able to trade leads and mailing lists.

Make a list of all possible business alliances in your area, work out a win-win arrangement where both businesses benefit, and systematically work through your list. This will cut down on your marketing and advertising costs.

2. Wholesale/Bulk You'll save money buying your business supplies in bulk quantities. You could get a membership at a wholesale warehouse or buy them through a mail order or internet wholesaler. Buy supplies you are always running out of.

3. Free Stuff You should try visiting thousands of freebie sites on internet before buying your business supplies. You can find free software, graphics, backgrounds, online business services and business cards to mention a few items. There are many online sites providing freebies, and to get you started visit www.freeonline.com.au and www.ifree.com.au

4. Borrow/Rent Have you ever purchased business equipment you only needed for a small period of time? You could have just borrowed equipment from someone else or rented equipment from a business equipment supplier.
