Getting Started: The Basics

Before we jump into specific businesses, there are a few important things you should know. First, you’ll need to have some money to invest. The good news is that you don’t need millions right away, but having a decent starting amount will certainly make things easier. Think of it as seed money. Also, you will have to have a criminal mind.

• Grind some jobs: If you’re running low on funds, start with contact missions, races, or heists. They’re not as profitable as running your own business, but they can provide essential startup capital.
• Property is key: Most businesses require you to own some kind of property, like an office or clubhouse. We’ll discuss these in more detail below.
• Patience and persistence: Building a successful business in GTA Online takes time and effort. Don’t get discouraged if you don’t become a millionaire overnight. Keep working at it, and you’ll see the rewards.

Executive Offices: The Corner Office

Ready to feel important? The Executive Office is where many business dreams begin. Owning one lets you buy and manage various other types of businesses, making it a great starting point for any aspiring entrepreneur. But it’s not just a place to look at the view; it’s your base of operations. You can manage your warehouses, start VIP work, and even have your own personal assistant (who can do things like call in a helicopter for you!).

How to Get an Office
