The COVID-19 pandemic has had a devastating impact on our world. It’s left millions of people without jobs. In the UK alone there were an estimated 0.9 million new unemployment cases by the end of 2021. Not every firm transitioned to remote or hybrid working, which resulted in many workers getting laid off. With our entire lives reduced to just surviving, necessity became indeed the mother of invention. As a result, more business opportunities, especially for women, were realized. Let’s find out some new post-covid businesses for female entrepreneurs.
1. Psychic Reading
As a novel pandemic, Covid-19 caused a lot of uncertainty and no one knew what the following day could present. As a result, most people turned to psychics to at least get clues of what their futures hold. If psychic reading is new to you, here’s all you should know about it.
Psychic reading involves the use of clairvoyance or heightened perception of information not accessible to our basic senses in an attempt to discern the future. The most common types of psychic reading include palm reading, astrology, aura reading, and distant readings to mention just a few. Each type of reading depends on the psychic reading tools the medium uses to foretell one’s future.
There are numerous types of psychic reading tools such as tarot cards, pendulums, astrology, I-Ching, Oracle cards, crystals, and numerology among others. Some psychics also use no tools and only rely on their intuition to respond to your questions.
Unlike most of the other professions, psychic reading is one of the historically female dominated niches where any woman with psychic abilities can venture and thrive, especially now that more people are seeking these services to discern what their love lives, finances, health, and families’ futures look like.
2. Homemade skin care products
Once Covid-19 hit, most public places, including beauty parlors and salons closed. People have had to take care of their skin, nails, and hair from home in the attempt to control the spread of the virus, especially during the first year of the pandemic when scientists were still trying to figure out ways of controlling and treating the novel virus.
Most beauty products require professional help to apply, which necessitated women to create some homemade skin care products which anyone could apply from home. Any woman with an amazing skin care routine using home made products can easily transform their passion into a profit-making business by simply working with makeup companies or opening an online store to sell their products while leveraging social media to popularize the business.
3. Online tutoring
Schools closed as well due to Covid-19 which meant that parents had to find new ways of keeping their children busy throughout the long break. At such a time, keeping one’s kids engaged meant saving them from the anxiety caused by the uncertainty created by Covid.
Mompreneurs the world over seized the opportunity and created online classes for skills like knitting, cooking simple recipes, making simple healthy snacks, playing musical instruments and many more skills.
Some of the parents who wouldn’t have dared rely on online learning, used these services as their only option and now depend on it. Now women experienced in homeschooling or with skills they can share with the world can turn their passions into businesses by creating tutorials and selling them online.
4. Selling masks online
Masks became a fundamental part of our lives and 3 years after the first Covid cases we are still wearing masks. Numerous women first tried making masks for their families when there were shortages around the world.
Women who can make quality recyclable masks from more eco-friendly materials could make businesses out of these skills.
In conclusion, women have had to compete with men in the past but new opportunities more favorable to them have emerged post-covid. Now whether you are into homeschooling, sewing, beauty, or coding, you can make a profitable business out of your skills while taking care of your family. The universe has made it clear that as a woman you no longer need to choose between family and business.
