So you want to start a business in Guyana, but your wallet whispering “try next month”?
We’ve been there.
We ARE there.
But guess what? That never stopped us.
At Squeaks & Squiggles, we didn’t wait for a big loan or a fancy degree. We built a brand from bold ideas, backyard brainstorms, and pure Guyanese determination.
1. Sell What You’d Use in Your Own Home
Look around. Your home is a goldmine for ideas.
If you’d use it in your kitchen, bathroom, or bedroom—someone else will too.
Here’s what we started with (and still sell today!):
You don’t need to create a new product. Just offer what people already want—with your flavor.
2. Turn Your Phone Into Your First Employee
Your phone is your factory, storefront, and marketing team—use it like a boss.
Take bright photos with natural light
Use the free Canva app to create flyers
Post daily to WhatsApp, Facebook, and IG
Click on the link above and send a message saying “NEW BIZ” for advise, assistance and support in web creation or launching your business
That’s literally how we launched SqueaksGy.com. From phone to profit.
3. Use “Bundle and Save” to Boost Sales
Guyana loves a deal.
Create simple, appealing bundles like:
People want value, not clutter.
4. Show Up with Confidence
Don’t hide. Be bold. Show your journey.
Post reels, do unboxings, share bloopers—it makes you real and relatable.
That’s how we connect with our audience every week.
Bonus: Run your own giveaway. Ask 10 friends to repost your offer and reward one with a free product. Instant visibility.
5. Build as You Go
Don’t wait for perfection. Launch messy. Grow loud. Sell proud.
Even SqueaksGy.com was built before we had it all figured out. The more you show up, the more you learn.
Final Words from the S&S Fam
If you’ve got:
A phone
Some drive
And that Guyanese fire…
You already have what it takes.
