Buy petty soul gems. Get a weapon with soul trap and the courage spell.
Cast courage on deer, they will run right for you. Now kill them, and make items. Yes it is crafting, but it is also the fastest way. Horkers are also good because they are normally in packs of 3 and all along the northern coast.
Weapon enchants normally earn more profit than armor enchants. Banish is the highest, but absorb health and turn undead also net good returns and you will find those at lower levels. If you have weapons, enchant them, if not make iron daggers and enchant those. I'm not saying this for raising smithing, I'm saying this because iron daggers are so cheap to make. Especially if you have been killing deer which will give you all the leather straps you will need. An iron dagger will cost <10 gold to make, the petty gems will cost 30 gold I think, and you will be selling enchanted daggers for 100+ gold a piece. Use the profit to buy more gems and better enchantments.
