It depends on the colony. Some, like Georgia, were started for freedom (in Georgia's case, financial freedom). Others, like Virginia, were established for economic venture. A few were started so that the mother country could gain land and power. Of course, there were other reasons (and sub reasons for states mentioned) the southern colonies were started.
