There’s a lot of money in tutoring students, and it’s always a good idea to have a side hustle that can supplement your income. You don’t need any experience, and if you’re young enough, there’s plenty of demand.
You can get started by Googling “tutors in (your city)” or “tutors near me,” then sending an email with your information and availability to all the people who respond to your search. Be sure to mention that you’re available for after-school hours and weekends too!
Once you’ve found some students, try meeting them at their house for lessons it’ll save time and make them feel more comfortable if they don’t have to travel far away from home. And when they hire you as their tutor, they’ll want extra attention because they paid so much money just getting into the door!
You’ve probably heard of eBay, but do you know how to sell things on it? If not, let me tell you a few things. First of all, you can sell just about anything on eBay.
Just head over to their site and create an account (it takes less than 30 seconds). Then visit the Sell page and fill out some basic information about your item: what it is, where it came from, and how much it costs. Once that’s done, upload photos of your product(s) and set a price for them! That’s all there is to it!
Now if this sounds too easy…well guess what? It actually gets even easier than that! There are tons of ways for anyone with just one or two hours per week time available to earn money using eBay as well as other online marketplaces like Amazon Marketplace or Craigslist/Kijiji.
In fact, my favorite method involves doing nothing more than taking pictures of items I find at thrift stores which can then be sold online for big profits at little cost — no listing fees required!
This one is so fun and easy that it’s almost like cheating. All you have to do is pick up a pencil or pen, open up your drawing app of choice on your phone or laptop and start doodling away!
If you don’t know what kind of art people want, just ask them! Or better yet, think about what YOU would like to buy if someone else made it for you. Chances are good that other people will want the same thing too.
Once you have an idea of what kind of art you want to make, find some inspiration on Pinterest or Google images. Then just start drawing! When you’re done, take a few photos of your finished product and post them online with links back to your Etsy or eBay store (or whatever marketplace you choose).
I’m selling digital art on Etsy since 2018 and I’m making a decent living from it. I’ve sold over $100,000 worth of art in just over a year, and that number is growing every day!
This is the perfect side hustle because it can be done anywhere, and all you need is a laptop or smartphone with internet access. The only other thing you need to start selling art online is an Etsy store or eBay account. If you don’t want to use those platforms, there are plenty of other options out there like ArtFire or Society6.
Selling your photos online is a great way to earn money on the side. You can sell them to stock photo sites like Shutterstock and iStockPhoto, or you can sell them on your own website.
I’ve been selling my photos for years now and have earned over $5,000 doing so — sometimes making more than $500 per photo! The best part is that it’s totally passive income: once you have all of the pictures uploaded, they will keep selling week after week without any extra work from you.
Freelance writing is one of the most popular side hustles out there. You can write for anything from blogs to books, and you’ll find plenty of opportunities to do so. Earning money through freelance writing is fairly straightforward: you write an article, pitch it to a publication or website owner (or even your own blog), and then get paid!
The most common types of freelance work involve writing articles for websites or blogs. More ambitious writers might want to try their hand at book-length manuscripts, short stories, or even poetry.
Freelance writing gave me the opportunity to work from home and start my own business. It’s a great side hustle because people are always looking for good writers. I make between $50 and $100 per article, which was enough for me to make some extra cash.
As a freelance writer, you’ll need to have some basic skills and knowledge. First, it helps if you have some writing experience. You don’t have to be an expert — it’s usually better if you’re not! But knowing the basics of grammar and syntax will help ensure that your articles are easy to understand.
Proofreading is a great side hustle because it can be done from home, and you don’t need any special skills to start making money doing it.
Proofreading is also a skill that many people want to learn but never do. If you have good editing skills and are interested in becoming a proofreader, this article will provide you with all of the information that you need to get started today!
There are two ways that you can make money as a freelancer proofreader:
If you’re like me, you love listening to podcasts and watching YouTube videos. The problem is that the content creators don’t always have time to go back and transcribe everything they’ve said.
This means these great pieces of content often go unshared with others who don’t have time to listen on repeat or watch multiple times in hopes of picking up what was said along with any mistakes that were made when speaking/reading aloud.
If this sounds like something you would enjoy doing, then transcription services might be a good fit for you.
You will need some equipment (a laptop or desktop computer, headphones) but it’s not too difficult to get started earning money from this side hustle!
If there’s one thing I’ve learned about trying new things is: DO IT NOW! Don’t wait another day because someone else might beat you to it!
Editing services are a great way to make some extra cash.
What is editing? Editing involves making grammatical changes to your work and making sure that it’s free of spelling and punctuation errors, as well as other issues like the overuse of certain words or phrases.
How do I start an editing business?
The first thing you need to do is create a website for your editing business, so people will know all about what you offer.
Next, look into getting some certifications from educational institutions or online courses; this will help build up confidence in potential customers who are looking for someone reliable and proficient at what they do.
Finally, begin building up your client base by starting local word-of-mouth advertising campaigns (places where people might find themselves needing an editor include churches and schools) or by attending events where editors gather (such as writer’s conferences).
You can start a business as a consultant. If you have an area of expertise and know how to solve problems, this is a great way to earn money on the side.
You can use your own skills or knowledge to offer services for others who need help with their work. The key here is that you focus on identifying problems that are common in your field and then finding clients who need those solutions.
For example, if you’re an accountant or financial advisor and want to start consulting on the side, think about how often people ask you questions related to taxes or investments — and what kind of questions they ask most often. Then identify gaps in the market where there’s no one offering those services yet (or where someone might not be able to afford them).
Think about what it would take for you personally before deciding whether it’s worth pursuing as a side hustle idea and make sure there’s enough demand out there before deciding how much time and energy — and capital! — you’ll put into starting such an endeavor!
Affiliate marketing is a great way to earn more money online. There are a lot of ways you can get started with affiliate marketing, but the most important thing is to pick a niche that you like and focus on promoting products in that niche.
Once you’ve picked your niche, it’s time to start finding affiliate products related to your chosen area of expertise or interest. You can find these by searching Google for “affiliate programs” or “affiliates” followed by the product category (e.g., “affiliates for health & wellness”). Find several affiliate networks with good offers (like commission percentages) and then sign up for their programs.
For each platform that accepts your application, make sure any links back to their site have tracking codes so they know which sales came from you promoting their product through those links. Also, make sure all tracking IDs are included when submitting articles about them — this will help ensure accurate payouts as well!
