After getting laid-off, I decided to take control of my future and test out a few side hustle ideas. Here are 10 profitable side hustle …
- 0:00 | you can make a lot of money from doing
- 0:03 | this you guys it is insane I mean I am
- 0:06 | talking Millions like millions of
- 0:09 | dollars you can make all right you guys
- 0:10 | today is a fun one we are talking about
- 0:12 | something that I don’t usually talk
- 0:13 | about on my channel but it is also very
- 0:15 | very relevant to me and my life and what
- 0:17 | I’m going through right now so I wanted
- 0:18 | to make a video about it and that topic
- 0:20 | is making money through side hustles let
- 0:22 | me explain at the beginning of the year
- 0:24 | after I got laid off from my job I
- 0:26 | honestly realized that I am always going
- 0:28 | to be disposable to a company it doesn’t
- 0:30 | matter how good you are at your job or
- 0:32 | how high up at the company you are you
- 0:34 | are truly just a number to them when I
- 0:36 | got laid off I honestly felt a little
- 0:38 | bit screwed because I didn’t have any
- 0:40 | other sources of income any other income
- 0:42 | streams or money coming in and because
- 0:45 | of this I decided that no matter what
- 0:46 | happens in my job search even if I get a
- 0:49 | new job I want to make sure that I have
- 0:51 | other sources of income flowing in just
- 0:54 | in case something like this ever
- 0:55 | happened again and honestly even if you
- 0:58 | know you never got laid off again or
- 0:59 | anything like that you might want to
- 1:00 | take a break from work you might want to
- 1:02 | take a leave of absence to travel or to
- 1:05 | raise your kids and by having side
- 1:07 | hustles that you can build up over time
- 1:08 | you could not only create extra income
- 1:10 | but also potentially even one day
- 1:12 | completely replace your entire income
- 1:14 | with your side hustles so today I wanted
- 1:17 | to share 10 side hustle ideas that could
- 1:19 | make you at least sixty two hundred
- 1:21 | dollars a month which honestly is not a
- 1:24 | modest amount of money that’s a pretty
- 1:26 | solid monthly income and I’m gonna break
- 1:28 | it down into the side hustles that I
- 1:30 | have already tried since getting laid
- 1:31 | off as well as a few that I either want
- 1:34 | to try or have heard other people having
- 1:36 | success with and for each one I’m going
- 1:38 | to share what skills you might need in
- 1:40 | order to execute them as well as give
- 1:42 | them each like a star rating with how
- 1:44 | easy they are and also a star rating for
- 1:46 | what the potential upside is for how
- 1:48 | much money you could make so first I’m
- 1:50 | going to start with the five side
- 1:52 | hustles that I have started and have
- 1:54 | tried and then I’m gonna share some
- 1:56 | other ones that I want to try so the
- 1:57 | first one is Etsy and I actually started
- 1:59 | my Etsy store almost like a year and a
- 2:01 | half ago now my sister was pregnant she
- 2:03 | was having her baby shower and I decided
- 2:05 | to make her some like paper games and
- 2:07 | invitations and stuff like that and like
- 2:09 | signs for her baby shower I just figured
- 2:11 | if I’m making these already why don’t I
- 2:13 | just upload them to Etsy and start
- 2:14 | selling them and see if I can make a
- 2:16 | little bit of extra income from that the
- 2:18 | cool thing about Etsy is that you can
- 2:19 | sell pretty much any product anything
- 2:21 | from mugs t-shirts hats phone cases yoga
- 2:25 | mats water bottles honestly the limit
- 2:27 | does not exist on what type of product
- 2:29 | you could be selling on Etsy but you do
- 2:31 | have to have at least one small skill in
- 2:34 | order to sell products on Etsy whether
- 2:35 | that be graphic design woodworking
- 2:38 | skills and sell those or be a painter
- 2:40 | and sell your paintings and so you do
- 2:42 | have to have some skills in order to get
- 2:43 | started selling products on Etsy I will
- 2:45 | also say that getting an Etsy store set
- 2:47 | up is pretty easy you literally just go
- 2:50 | to etsy.com and you can scroll all the
- 2:52 | way to the bottom and click sell on Etsy
- 2:55 | and it will take you through how to get
- 2:57 | started selling on Etsy and honestly it
- 2:59 | was super super easy you just need to
- 3:01 | create an account and it’s very very
- 3:02 | intuitive now as far as how easy it is
- 3:05 | to actually get started I’m giving this
- 3:06 | one four stars because you do have to
- 3:09 | have some sort of skill or something
- 3:11 | that you can make and start listing that
- 3:13 | product or thing on Etsy so however once
- 3:15 | you do have that it is so easy to get
- 3:17 | your Etsy listings in your Etsy
- 3:19 | storefront set up so that’s why it’s
- 3:21 | pretty high on the easy scale rating and
- 3:24 | for potential upside I’m giving this
- 3:26 | five stars because Etsy is basically
- 3:28 | kind of a passive income Source kind of
- 3:30 | depending on what your product is but
- 3:32 | especially if you’re doing something
- 3:33 | like print on demand or digital
- 3:35 | downloads once you have the product made
- 3:37 | and live on site you pretty much don’t
- 3:39 | have to do anything else and you can
- 3:40 | just let it go and if you’re selling a
- 3:42 | physical product that you’re making you
- 3:44 | can basically sell as many as you can
- 3:46 | make so it’s really just a great way to
- 3:48 | get your products out to the world and
- 3:50 | start generating income I think making
- 3:52 | around 500 a month from Etsy is pretty
- 3:55 | reasonable for a hypothetical breakdown
- 3:57 | let’s say you have a t-shirt t-shirt
- 4:00 | you’re selling for twenty dollars your
- 4:01 | profit margin on that t-shirt is ten
- 4:03 | dollars so you would only have to sell
- 4:04 | about 50 t-shirts per month in order to
- 4:06 | make 500 a month on Etsy all right side
- 4:09 | hustle idea number two is dog sitting or
- 4:12 | dog walking and this is again one that
- 4:14 | we started doing actually back in
- 4:15 | December so right before I got laid off
- 4:18 | I honestly started doing Rover because I
- 4:20 | was like I want to make a little bit of
- 4:21 | extra cash on the side for some spending
- 4:24 | money and then it was actually a good
- 4:26 | thing that I started doing Rover because
- 4:27 | then I got laid off like a month later
- 4:29 | but if you don’t want to do dog sitting
- 4:31 | and have dogs in your house all the time
- 4:32 | you could also do dog walking we use
- 4:34 | Rover for dog sitting but you can also
- 4:36 | use the app called wag for dog walking
- 4:39 | instead so as far as skills required in
- 4:42 | order to be a dog walker dog sitter you
- 4:44 | kind of just have to like animals and be
- 4:46 | good with pets and same thing for kind
- 4:48 | of dog walking you maybe don’t need to
- 4:49 | have a ton of experience with dogs but
- 4:51 | you do need to be able to physically
- 4:53 | handle maybe a big dog or dogs that are
- 4:56 | pulling a lot on walks and things like
- 4:58 | that overall I would say if you you are
- 5:00 | not a dog person this one is probably
- 5:02 | not for you but it is a pretty easy way
- 5:04 | to start making money for ease to get
- 5:07 | started five stars this was super easy
- 5:09 | you guys to get started you can
- 5:11 | literally just go to rover.com which is
- 5:13 | what Chris and I did and sign up to
- 5:16 | become a sitter it’s honestly so easy
- 5:19 | like it’s so easy and I’m pretty sure
- 5:21 | it’s almost exactly the same for wag
- 5:24 | this one is kind of just a low hanging
- 5:26 | fruit if you have a yard you have the
- 5:28 | space you have the time in your home a
- 5:30 | lot dog walking and dog sitting is a
- 5:32 | really really easy one now as far as
- 5:34 | potential upside I’m only giving this
- 5:36 | one two stars the reason I say this is
- 5:38 | it really just depends on how many dogs
- 5:40 | you’re willing to sit how many dogs are
- 5:41 | willing to walk throughout the week
- 5:42 | personally Chris and I we only like to
- 5:44 | have one maybe two dogs per day because
- 5:47 | it just gets a little bit chaotic we
- 5:48 | already have doodle and honestly I don’t
- 5:50 | want anything in my house ruined I’m
- 5:52 | really just doing it for a little extra
- 5:53 | cash not as like a main source of income
- 5:56 | but you definitely could if you really
- 5:58 | wanted this to be like your main thing
- 5:59 | and you could make a good amount of
- 6:01 | money on Rover we currently charge about
- 6:03 | 50 bucks a day so if I were to have one
- 6:06 | dog every single day for an entire month
- 6:08 | I would make fifteen hundred dollars a
- 6:10 | month if you are willing to take two
- 6:12 | dogs at 50 bucks a day then that doubles
- 6:14 | it to like three grand so the upside is
- 6:16 | really just dependent on how many dogs
- 6:17 | you’re willing to take how many walks
- 6:19 | you’re willing to go on and what you’re
- 6:21 | charging that’s still decent money but
- 6:23 | again I think the upside here is a
- 6:24 | little bit lower because it does
- 6:26 | physically take your time and energy to
- 6:28 | watch a dog or take it for a walk all
- 6:30 | right side hustle number three and this
- 6:32 | one is affiliate marketing if you don’t
- 6:34 | know what affiliate marketing is
- 6:35 | basically all it is is a referral link
- 6:38 | or something like that is created for
- 6:41 | you that’s unique to you and when you
- 6:43 | give it to your friends family YouTube
- 6:45 | subscribers Instagram followers whatever
- 6:47 | when people click on that link and
- 6:49 | actually completely check out and buy
- 6:51 | the products you get a small percentage
- 6:53 | of commission essentially from their
- 6:55 | purchase I basically started doing this
- 6:57 | in two different ways one is through
- 6:59 | like 10 know it Shameless plug if you’re
- 7:01 | not following me I’d like to know it go
- 7:02 | follow me there the other one is through
- 7:04 | the Amazon Associates program and I do
- 7:06 | happen to know that there’s lots of
- 7:07 | other ways to get into affiliate
- 7:09 | marketing but that’s a whole different
- 7:10 | video so with like to know it it’s
- 7:12 | really much more focused on kind of like
- 7:14 | clothing Home Products things like that
- 7:16 | so people post you know a picture of
- 7:18 | themselves and they tag the products and
- 7:19 | then if somebody goes and buys that
- 7:21 | product you would get you know different
- 7:23 | commission rates from each company or
- 7:25 | brand that is tagged within the photo so
- 7:27 | it’s pretty straightforward similarly
- 7:29 | with Amazon associate program you
- 7:31 | basically just have links to products on
- 7:32 | Amazon and if somebody buys that product
- 7:34 | you get a very very small on Amazon
- 7:36 | commission from somebody buying it I
- 7:38 | would say skills required for this one
- 7:40 | are pretty minimal you basically just
- 7:41 | need to be able to convince your friends
- 7:43 | families followers Etc to buy things so
- 7:45 | if you’re a convincing person this might
- 7:47 | be a good one for you as far as ease to
- 7:49 | get started I’m giving this one five
- 7:51 | stars I honestly think it was so easy to
- 7:53 | set up my like to know it account as
- 7:54 | well as my Amazon Associates account so
- 7:57 | if I’d like to know it I think you
- 7:58 | literally just could go ltk a Creator
- 8:00 | and that will take you to the apply to
- 8:03 | become an ltk Creator you can apply now
- 8:06 | and honestly the application is pretty
- 8:08 | simple you just fill out some
- 8:09 | information about yourself you will need
- 8:11 | to have public social media presence so
- 8:13 | make your Instagram not private for your
- 8:16 | YouTube channel or whatever so it’s
- 8:17 | super easy to sign up and apply and
- 8:19 | similar to the Amazon Associates program
- 8:21 | you can literally just Google Amazon
- 8:23 | Associates program and apply basically
- 8:26 | on here as well and when I click in here
- 8:29 | you can see that I have made a lofty
- 8:31 | dollar and 75 cents from my Amazon
- 8:34 | affiliate program but you know I’m still
- 8:36 | a really small YouTuber I don’t really
- 8:37 | push my Amazon affiliate links very much
- 8:39 | so on that topic I will give the
- 8:42 | potential upside here three stars I will
- 8:44 | say that very influential if you have a
- 8:46 | large following on social media then it
- 8:48 | could definitely be a five stars but if
- 8:50 | you’re just kind of like a random person
- 8:52 | an average Joe like me you have a small
- 8:54 | following on social media you’re not
- 8:56 | going to make a ton of money I don’t
- 8:58 | think from something like this I do
- 9:00 | think it is something though that you
- 9:01 | could definitely scale over time on my
- 9:04 | like to know and I’ve made a little bit
- 9:05 | more so I’ve only made about forty
- 9:07 | dollars all together from my affiliate
- 9:09 | links but again if you did have a larger
- 9:11 | audience or if you were really actively
- 9:13 | working on this to grow it over time I
- 9:15 | think you could make around 100 a month
- 9:17 | doing this again this is a much smaller
- 9:19 | one so I’m only giving it three stars
- 9:21 | I’ve watched some other YouTubers videos
- 9:23 | on like how much money they make from
- 9:24 | affiliate marketing and you can honestly
- 9:26 | make like thousands and thousands of
- 9:27 | dollars if that is like your main
- 9:29 | strategy so affiliate marketing is a
- 9:31 | really solid one all right next side
- 9:33 | hustle idea is freelance work so I did
- 9:36 | kick this off this year and didn’t
- 9:38 | really pursue it Beyond like creating
- 9:41 | some listings essentially I created my
- 9:44 | listings in copywriting because I do
- 9:46 | have some kind of marketing and
- 9:47 | copywriting skills and kind of the way
- 9:49 | that this works is if a company doesn’t
- 9:51 | have an internal employee or something
- 9:53 | like that they might be looking for
- 9:54 | somebody to just put together you know
- 9:56 | their website an individual might hire a
- 9:58 | person to like proofread their resume
- 10:00 | and things like that so there’s all
- 10:02 | sorts of little kind of like freelance
- 10:04 | odd jobs type of thing that you can do
- 10:06 | some skills required for this I would
- 10:07 | say you do need to have a few skills in
- 10:10 | writing or reading or proofreading or
- 10:12 | video editing or whatever so as far as
- 10:14 | how easy it is to get started I’m giving
- 10:16 | this one three stars you can use tools
- 10:18 | like let’s say Fiverr as well as upwork
- 10:21 | to create different freelance gigs that
- 10:24 | you are offering but if we go into
- 10:25 | Fiverr again you can kind of see like
- 10:28 | all of the different types of services
- 10:30 | that you could offer so if within
- 10:32 | writing you could do you know sales copy
- 10:35 | and you can see all the different things
- 10:37 | that people are offering within sales
- 10:39 | copy so there’s tons of different skills
- 10:41 | that you can essentially sell as a
- 10:43 | freelancer and make decent money doing
- 10:45 | this but I only give it three stars
- 10:47 | because look at how many services are
- 10:50 | available within video editing I mean
- 10:53 | the competition here is really high and
- 10:55 | in order to get to a point where this is
- 10:57 | like making you anything I think you
- 11:00 | would really need to either be doing
- 11:02 | something really unique or somehow be
- 11:04 | standing out on these websites like
- 11:05 | Fiverr and upwork similarly for
- 11:08 | potential upside here I’m also giving
- 11:09 | this three stars the reason I say that
- 11:11 | is because even though it’s kind of like
- 11:13 | you can take as many gigs as you want
- 11:15 | and you can charge as much as you want
- 11:18 | you would kind of have to do a lot in
- 11:20 | order to make good money doing this so
- 11:22 | for example if I went into the sales
- 11:24 | copy tab I mean we’re talking about
- 11:27 | anywhere from this one’s a hundred
- 11:29 | dollars to like five dollars and how are
- 11:32 | you gonna stand out if there’s people
- 11:34 | offering the same service as you for
- 11:36 | five dollars if I go back to the video
- 11:39 | editing tab a lot of these are charging
- 11:41 | ten dollars a minute ten dollars a
- 11:42 | minute twenty dollars per minute twenty
- 11:44 | five dollars a minute and then there’s
- 11:45 | some down here that are even like five
- 11:47 | dollars a minute so let’s just assume
- 11:49 | you’re at the low end in order to stay
- 11:50 | competitive if you were to edit a 10
- 11:53 | minute video at five dollars a minute
- 11:55 | that’s fifty dollars per video and let’s
- 11:57 | say you can do 10 of those videos per
- 11:59 | month now you can make 500 bucks a month
- 12:01 | just editing videos for other people so
- 12:03 | this one can really vary a lot and there
- 12:05 | is definitely some upside here but I do
- 12:07 | think it takes a little bit of effort to
- 12:09 | kind of get yourself established but it
- 12:11 | is a really solid option if you have
- 12:12 | skills like video editing copywriting
- 12:14 | and things like that all right side
- 12:16 | hustle number five is this one right
- 12:19 | here the thing that you guys are
- 12:20 | watching which is YouTube YouTube is
- 12:22 | obviously for me right now kind of my
- 12:24 | main Hustle but it is definitely
- 12:26 | something that anybody could start doing
- 12:28 | as more of a side Hustle but you could
- 12:30 | put out maybe like one video a week or
- 12:32 | one video every other weekend start
- 12:34 | building an audience over time and
- 12:36 | ultimately get your channel to a point
- 12:39 | where it gets monetized which basically
- 12:41 | means that YouTube is paying you in
- 12:43 | order to put ads on your videos and It
- 12:46 | ultimately kind of becomes a source of
- 12:48 | passive income because once you have
- 12:50 | your video out there and live and you’re
- 12:52 | monetized it can just continue to
- 12:54 | generate money over time so this is one
- 12:56 | that I like think everyone should be
- 12:58 | doing I wish that I had started a
- 13:00 | YouTube channel sooner honestly and you
- 13:02 | can start a YouTube channel about
- 13:04 | anything obviously I post kind of like
- 13:06 | lifestyle content but you could post
- 13:08 | anything from recipes and cooking to
- 13:10 | specifically about like working out to
- 13:13 | day in your life Vlogs kind of like what
- 13:15 | I like to do or travel there’s just so
- 13:17 | many different things that you can make
- 13:19 | YouTube videos about and honestly I feel
- 13:21 | like everyone should be doing it as far
- 13:22 | as skills required you can definitely
- 13:24 | get better at making YouTube videos and
- 13:27 | editing over time you can also hire
- 13:29 | people to edit your videos like we were
- 13:31 | just talking about on that freelancing
- 13:33 | website so for how easy it is to get
- 13:35 | started I am giving this two stars
- 13:37 | because it does take some time energy
- 13:39 | and effort to get started and you do
- 13:41 | need to have you know some skills as far
- 13:43 | as like being confident from the camera
- 13:45 | or if you’re showing you know cooking
- 13:47 | recipes and things like that you’re
- 13:48 | gonna obviously need to know how to cook
- 13:49 | and have cooking recipes you know so it
- 13:52 | does take a little bit of effort to get
- 13:54 | started but I also will say you can
- 13:56 | start recording with your iPhone you can
- 13:57 | start just editing on freestyle offer an
- 13:59 | iMovie and I actually made like a whole
- 14:01 | video which I will link up there
- 14:02 | somewhere about how I got started and
- 14:05 | all the tools I used to get started and
- 14:07 | you can kind of see it doesn’t have to
- 14:08 | be super complicated but it is going to
- 14:10 | take some time for your channel to scale
- 14:12 | but I will give the potential upside
- 14:14 | here five stars because honestly the
- 14:16 | amount of views you can get on YouTube
- 14:19 | is endless you could go viral for like
- 14:21 | any type of video who knows and once
- 14:23 | your videos are monetized you can make a
- 14:26 | lot of money from doing this you guys it
- 14:28 | is insane I mean I am talking Millions
- 14:31 | like millions of dollars you can make I
- 14:34 | have watched other creators videos on
- 14:35 | how much money they make on YouTube and
- 14:37 | just seeing that some creators literally
- 14:39 | make like a hundred thousand dollars a
- 14:41 | month or two hundred thousand dollars a
- 14:43 | month like that is just like insane to
- 14:45 | me and that’s just from ads you can also
- 14:47 | make money as a YouTuber through brand
- 14:49 | deals but I would say somebody with kind
- 14:50 | of like a moderate following let’s say
- 14:52 | maybe like 20 to 25 000 followers might
- 14:55 | make around fifteen hundred to two
- 14:57 | thousand dollars a month just from their
- 14:58 | YouTube YouTube ads honestly that’s like
- 15:00 | where I’m trying to where I’m trying to
- 15:02 | be I’m obviously not there yet but again
- 15:04 | as your channel grows the potential
- 15:07 | upside here really is endless so quick
- 15:09 | pause those are the five side hustle
- 15:11 | ideas that I have tried so far since
- 15:13 | being laid off this year but now I’m
- 15:14 | gonna share five more ideas for you guys
- 15:16 | these ones I have not tried a few of
- 15:19 | them I really want to try and I will let
- 15:21 | you know which ones those are but
- 15:22 | hopefully these are some different ideas
- 15:24 | they might be easier lighter lift for
- 15:26 | some people all right so side hustle
- 15:28 | number six is getting into doing things
- 15:30 | like a delivery service for example like
- 15:32 | GrubHub or just being like an Uber
- 15:34 | driver I’m just kind of blanketing those
- 15:36 | kind of Driver Services into one
- 15:38 | category this is an obvious one this is
- 15:40 | something that we all use on a daily
- 15:42 | basis it’s a great way to you know spend
- 15:45 | a few extra hours in your evening if you
- 15:46 | have free time to go you know deliver
- 15:48 | food orders and pick people up on Uber
- 15:51 | as far as skills needed obviously you
- 15:53 | just need to be a good driver and have a
- 15:55 | car I will give this five stars on how
- 15:58 | easy I think it is how however I will
- 15:59 | say that the potential upside on this
- 16:01 | one is very low I will give this one one
- 16:03 | star I was doing some research before
- 16:05 | this video and honestly Uber drivers and
- 16:08 | all that they really don’t make that
- 16:09 | much money I was seeing a range and the
- 16:11 | average kind of being around 15 an hour
- 16:14 | it may vary based on where you live
- 16:16 | let’s say you were to do this for one
- 16:17 | hour per day just during the work week
- 16:19 | that would mean five hours per week or
- 16:22 | 20 hours per month and that would bring
- 16:24 | your total potential income from being a
- 16:26 | driver to about 300 bucks a month all
- 16:28 | right side hustle number seven is to
- 16:29 | become either like a personal assistant
- 16:31 | or a virtual assistant I think the cool
- 16:33 | thing about potentially becoming a
- 16:35 | virtual assistant for somebody is the
- 16:37 | fact that you can do that from anywhere
- 16:39 | and that’s one thing that I really value
- 16:41 | is being a remote worker being able to
- 16:43 | go travel and work on the go if I need
- 16:46 | to Virtual assistants or personal
- 16:48 | assistants can do anything from admin
- 16:50 | work project management bookkeeping
- 16:52 | answering emails customer service
- 16:54 | content creation it can really be like a
- 16:56 | wide variety as far as skills I think
- 16:58 | that you would need for this just being
- 17:00 | organized and being able to kind of like
- 17:02 | stay on top of your tasks as far as how
- 17:05 | easy it is to get started this is
- 17:07 | another thing that you can actually
- 17:08 | search for on Fiverr so just to pull up
- 17:12 | really quick you can search for a
- 17:14 | virtual assistant and yeah there’s tons
- 17:17 | of people offering this service as a
- 17:19 | virtual assistant a lot of them ten
- 17:21 | dollars ten dollars twenty dollars is
- 17:22 | kind of again a wide range here but you
- 17:25 | know this is one where you are going to
- 17:27 | have to put in your time help somebody
- 17:28 | else be you know organized help somebody
- 17:30 | else with their business but it is
- 17:32 | generally you know work from home and
- 17:34 | part-time I was seeing anywhere from
- 17:36 | like 15 to 25 dollars per hour so let’s
- 17:38 | say you’re kind of like smacked in the
- 17:40 | middle of that and making about 18 bucks
- 17:42 | an hour and you’re doing 10 hours per
- 17:44 | week as a virtual assistant that means
- 17:46 | in a month you could be making about 700
- 17:47 | bucks a month which is pretty solid if
- 17:50 | you ask me and because of that I’m
- 17:52 | giving this one three stars it’s kind of
- 17:54 | right in the middle it’s not bad money
- 17:56 | but it does take your time and energy
- 17:57 | and the pay payout is kind of I would
- 18:00 | say mid to low end but it’s something
- 18:03 | that you could do if you’ve had an extra
- 18:04 | 10 hours per week to do something and
- 18:06 | you wanted to do it from the comfort of
- 18:08 | your own home all right so my next idea
- 18:10 | is to create online courses this is one
- 18:12 | that I actually really want to kind of
- 18:15 | experiment with and try and learn there
- 18:17 | are tons of resources out there that you
- 18:19 | can start using in order to create
- 18:20 | online courses I’m just going to Google
- 18:22 | how to create an online course and you
- 18:24 | can see all these different resources
- 18:26 | and platforms that offer this type of
- 18:28 | thing I just think that this is a really
- 18:30 | cool way especially if you already have
- 18:32 | a skill like cooking you could create a
- 18:35 | whole course about how to make certain
- 18:37 | different meals my husband is Italian
- 18:39 | and so he could make authentic Italian
- 18:41 | meals that’s a really cool idea I think
- 18:43 | I would say the skills that you need for
- 18:45 | this obviously you’re going to need to
- 18:46 | have a certain skill that you know in
- 18:49 | order to create an online course so as
- 18:51 | far as how easy it is to get started I
- 18:53 | would give this one honestly probably
- 18:55 | like four stars because other than just
- 18:57 | knowing a skill in our already having a
- 18:59 | skill getting it set up here on
- 19:01 | teachable and kajabi and all these other
- 19:03 | platforms that already just exist for
- 19:05 | you to like create your online course I
- 19:08 | think it would be pretty easy to get
- 19:09 | this one started which is why I want to
- 19:10 | give this one a shot as far as potential
- 19:12 | upside I’m giving this one five stars
- 19:15 | because as I click into some of these I
- 19:17 | just clicked a random one I don’t know
- 19:18 | hand lettering this person is charging
- 19:21 | 397 dollars for this course 249 like
- 19:25 | that’s expensive let’s go into maybe
- 19:27 | academics these look like little bundles
- 19:30 | but anywhere from this one is thirty
- 19:33 | dollars up towards 300 so honestly these
- 19:36 | online courses can seriously go for
- 19:38 | anywhere from like 50 bucks 30 bucks all
- 19:40 | the way upwards to like 300 350 like
- 19:43 | whatever you’re charging and so I think
- 19:44 | that the upside here is really big and
- 19:47 | also once you have your online course
- 19:48 | made it’s kind of like put a bow on it
- 19:50 | you’re done it kind of becomes passive
- 19:52 | income so that’s a really really cool
- 19:54 | thing for me as well I’m gonna go on the
- 19:56 | low end here of the online courses let’s
- 19:57 | say you’re selling your online course
- 19:59 | for like fifty dollars you would only
- 20:01 | need to sell like 10 of those per month
- 20:03 | to make 500 and again if you have a
- 20:06 | course for like 300 you would only need
- 20:08 | to sell one of them to make 300 a month
- 20:10 | or if you sold three of them you would
- 20:11 | almost be making a thousand dollars a
- 20:13 | month just from your online courses so
- 20:14 | the potential upside here is really
- 20:16 | really big all right side hustle number
- 20:18 | nine side hustle number nine almost
- 20:20 | there you guys this one is to kind of
- 20:22 | create either an online store or just
- 20:24 | like having products online this is
- 20:27 | really similar to like what I used to do
- 20:28 | with my side business Valerie bikini
- 20:30 | there’s lots of different ways that you
- 20:32 | can do this I personally used to use
- 20:33 | Shopify Shopify is very easy to get set
- 20:36 | up but you will need to either like have
- 20:38 | products that you’re selling one way
- 20:40 | that I’ve seen a lot of like YouTube
- 20:41 | creators or people like me making money
- 20:44 | through online products is like selling
- 20:46 | merch but yeah you could really just
- 20:47 | like start an entire you know business
- 20:49 | or side hustle selling products and
- 20:51 | creating an online boutique or like I
- 20:53 | was doing swimwear so honestly the
- 20:55 | options here are endless but I will say
- 20:58 | it is pretty easy to get started but it
- 21:00 | is really hard to scale skills that you
- 21:03 | would need for this one are creating a
- 21:04 | product again that could be pretty easy
- 21:06 | if you’re doing like a boutique or just
- 21:08 | like merch and some web design skills to
- 21:10 | get your website set up as far as how
- 21:12 | easy it is to get started I’m giving
- 21:13 | this three stars because I do think that
- 21:16 | it is pretty easy to get set up but in
- 21:18 | order to kind of like start making
- 21:20 | really good monthly consistent income is
- 21:23 | a lot harder and you’re really gonna
- 21:25 | have to scale in order to get it there
- 21:28 | but I will say that the potential upside
- 21:29 | on this is pretty high I will give this
- 21:31 | a four stars because I was selling
- 21:33 | bikinis at like 50 bucks a pop and
- 21:36 | selling 10 bikinis especially during
- 21:37 | summer was pretty easy to do but of
- 21:39 | course depending on what your product is
- 21:41 | the upside could be way higher you could
- 21:43 | be making you know ten thousand dollars
- 21:45 | a month just selling products on your
- 21:46 | online website all right the last one
- 21:48 | you guys so side hustle number 10 is
- 21:50 | starting a podcast and this is another
- 21:53 | one that I actually really want to do
- 21:54 | what I really want to do is start it
- 21:56 | with Chris and have us make like a
- 21:58 | couple’s pie podcast it wouldn’t
- 22:00 | necessarily have to be about like our
- 22:01 | relationship or anything like that but I
- 22:03 | just thought it would be kind of fun for
- 22:04 | him and I to work on something like that
- 22:06 | together anyways I think podcasts sound
- 22:09 | super fun to make the skills I would say
- 22:11 | you need to be able to be a little bit
- 22:13 | chatty kind of be able to be bubbly I
- 22:15 | would say also be able to kind of you
- 22:17 | know edit audio but that’s pretty much
- 22:19 | it not a ton of skills as far as how
- 22:21 | easy it is to get started I’m pretty
- 22:22 | sure starting a podcast is super easy
- 22:25 | all you need is some like recording
- 22:27 | software which pretty much everybody’s
- 22:28 | computer and or phone has these days but
- 22:31 | you can literally again Google how to
- 22:34 | start a podcast and the first one is
- 22:37 | Spotify and you can literally just like
- 22:39 | start making a podcast on Spotify so it
- 22:42 | seems pretty easy to get started I’m
- 22:44 | giving this one like a four out of five
- 22:46 | I think pretty much anybody could start
- 22:48 | a podcast it seems really really easy to
- 22:50 | do and as far as potential upside here I
- 22:52 | will say this one is a little bit lower
- 22:54 | I’m only giving this two stars reason
- 22:56 | for that is because as far as I’m aware
- 22:58 | the main way that you make money from a
- 23:00 | podcast is essentially getting like
- 23:01 | brand sponsorships and brand deals where
- 23:04 | a company is willing to pay you let’s
- 23:06 | say 100 bucks during your podcast to say
- 23:08 | something about their company and what
- 23:11 | they’re doing and why your listeners
- 23:13 | should use that company and I think in
- 23:16 | order to get to that point you really do
- 23:18 | need to be able to scale your podcast
- 23:19 | and get it to a point where you know a
- 23:21 | company or Advertiser would be willing
- 23:23 | to pay anything in order to have you
- 23:26 | mention their company or products in
- 23:28 | your podcast so this one is a little bit
- 23:29 | harder to make money and scale so I am
- 23:32 | only giving it two stars all right you
- 23:34 | guys so that was the 10 side hustle
- 23:36 | ideas that I had today and all of those
- 23:39 | together if you were to just do all of
- 23:41 | those could all make you at least sixty
- 23:44 | two hundred dollars and I say at least
- 23:46 | because remember I talked about like
- 23:47 | Rover if you took two dogs you could be
- 23:49 | making double if you grew your YouTube
- 23:51 | channel even bigger you could definitely
- 23:53 | be making more than fifteen hundred
- 23:54 | dollars a month if your online courses
- 23:56 | did really well you could be making
- 23:58 | thousands of dollars from your online
- 24:00 | courses so this is kind of like the
- 24:02 | minimum that you could definitely be
- 24:04 | making by implementing these side
- 24:06 | hustles but you guys those were the 10
- 24:08 | side hustle ideas that I had for you
