Listen, if you're like most people these days, you either have a side hustle or
you're looking for one cause. The truth is nowadays more than ever, we could all
use a few extra bucks. So we're going to be looking at 13 of the best side
hustles that can earn you $25 to $250 per hour and then ways to scale up a few
of them. So stay tuned.
Hey, what's up everybody, Jeff Lerner here. Before we get started, go ahead
and tap the like button and hit that subscribe button for me down below to
join us and always be informed of upcoming ways to create the life you
love by leveraging things that work for you, like the power of the internet and
no matter where you're from or what you do for a living, thanks to the internet,
making money is no longer a constant and never ending struggle. If you know how
to tap into the vast amount of opportunities found in the digital ether
of cyberspace, you can earn some extra money. Now, the first thing that you can
do is sell your stuff on eBay and Craigslist. Now everyone has some old
crap laying around that you don't use and one man's trash is another man's
treasure. Any used items like furniture, household appliances, collectibles,
anything else you're not using or is just collecting dust can be sold online
to make some money. So snap a photo, check out eBay to get a sense
of how much it's selling for. Then post it then listed on eBay, Craigslist or
Facebook marketplace. And if you're serious about this, you can even do it
professionally for others and collect a small commission for each sale. Just
take quality photos, make sure you write a good description and you'll be in
great shape. The second thing you can do is recycle your used smartphones on
gazelle. So rather than discarding an old phone, you can give it a new home
and help save the planet at the same time. And I'm sure you have an old
iPhone or Samsung laying around that could be sold or used for parts and
while you won't get top dollar for it. You will be able to get a little bit of
cash that might just help you out depending on your financial situation.
And number three, become a personal shopper. Don't you want to shop for
others? It could be a dream job if that's what you love and Hey, you're out
there shopping anyways, right? You could effectively become a personal shopper.
If you live in an urban metropolis with concentrated wealth. Then personal
shopping services are in high demand in your area. And the fourth thing you can
do for extra money is drive for Uber or Lyft. Have you got your license? You got
a car? Okay. One of the most widely available ways for making money is
driving for Uber or Lyft. The sharing economy has quite literally exploded and
both Uber and Lyft are at the forefront. And the best part is you can turn on and
off your availability through these networks with a simple click of a
button, which effectively allows you to make money no matter what time of day or
night it is. And number five, rent a room or space on Airbnb. Airbnb offers
an incredible resource for people that are willing to rent out a spare room or
even their entire home. I've heard of people even renting out a van on the
beach front, a tent in a backyard, even a garage. Imagine your town is having a
big event going on and all the hotels are full. There will always be someone
wanting a cheaper style accommodation. It's a win win. You get paid 24 hours
after a guest checks in, which is to avoid any problems or potential scams
that might arrive and some people earn their primary income just by renting out
rooms or homes on Airbnb. And if you want it to be more passive income, you
can even hire an Airbnb manager and also just create a safety deposit box for the
key. In fact, one of my good friends Brian Page, he does this for a living
and teaches other people how to do it. He doesn't even own the properties. It
is quite literally amazing what he does. And now he leverages other people's
properties and I actually interviewed Brian about his system and he broke it
all
down for me. So click the card or the link in the description below to check
out that interview. And the sixth thing that you can do for extra money is
sitting, sitting. Yeah. As in house sitting dog sitting, babysitting. It is
such a simple way to earn cash and there are a ton of people needing someone to
help out with their dog, their garden or their child. You just need to build up a
name for yourself so that you're trusted. And I would also say to get a
police check so that you can officially say you can work with children. Then you
can post your services on Craigslist, find a babysitter.com trusted house
sitters.com and many other websites. Once you've completed a few roles, you
build up a good list of clients that know you. And then more and more jobs
come in. Number seven, tutoring and knowledge sharing. And when I say
tutoring, I'm not talking about school. The great thing about being in the
modern world is that you can be a knowledge expert in just about anything
and get paid to do it. Are you good at cooking, coding, playing the saxophone,
deejaying, taking care of pets? What's something, anything that you could offer
out as a service with the internet, reaching a global audience at the simple
push of a button, you can easily find people that need your services. Good at
writing resumes, use sites like LinkedIn and other professional
sites to advertise your resume writing services. Start by doing a few for free
and then grab some rave reviews. Then watch your sales skyrocket. Or you can
post your tutoring services in the classifieds of Craigslist, tutor.com
tutor me.com some pay you up to 50 or even a hundred dollars per lesson. If
you like this idea, keep on watching cause I want to show you later how your
expertise can become passive income. I mean earning money while you're
sleeping, so stay tuned for that. Moving on to number eight, sell your services
on Fiverr. Fiverr has helped give birth to the gig economy and all those
services start out at $5 some five or sellers are earning six figure plus
revenues. You can sell just about anything on this platform, but to
succeed and become a super seller, you need to deliver massive amounts of value
even at those lower price points. People do literally everything on this site.
Personalized birthday songwriting, coding websites, anything you can
imagine, all you have to do is sign up and you can get started as a freelancer
today. Number nine is copywriting. What do I mean? Well, there's so many places.
Copywriting is used. I'm talking about email campaigns, social media, blog
posts, and I'm talking about persuasive writing, not academic writing. It's an
art. Just as much as it is a science and business owners are willing to pay
someone to write the copy for their business. There's a
huge demand. It's not taught in schools and you can't get a degree in it, so it
is super useful to learn. The best way to learn is to go on a successful
entrepreneurs pages or YouTube channel and see what's written on their sales
pages and sales funnels. Look at their email sequences, watch their webinar,
follow their funnel all the way through to where they present their products and
ideas. You can earn 25 to up to $500 per hour for copywriting and a great site to
get started on is freelancer.com I recommend starting a new email address.
Go sign up for every marketer's list that you can and start reading
everything that they send to you. They don't send you that stuff for nothing.
Marketers have tested and written the very best emails that they can and
they've usually been doing it for years and figured out how to sell their
products and data's the best place to learn. Number 10 is a big one. Create an
online course. Remember how I said you could turn your hobbies into online
passive income? Well, here's the solution. Whatever that thing that you
decided to tutor on the to tutor someone on, whether it was most environmentally
friendly pet care product or top tips for becoming a DJ, doesn't matter. You
can create an online course with a platform like Udemy, teachable or
Skillshare, and leverage your own skills to create a healthy passive income. So
you could
just do some one off recordings one time, write out some supportive
information, and then it's complete and you can really ramp up this side hustle
by actually learning some digital marketing skills and creating a bigger
audience for your course. Depending on how much time you invest in your course,
you can make substantial side revenue by creating courses that deliver tremendous
amounts of value. Frankly, I know someone again who's made millions of
dollars doing exactly what I just described. Number 11 you can write an
ebook. It gets even better at the same time you're creating that online course
content. You can also convert it into an ebook. You've got all the ideas right
there already and when it comes time to publish it, you use platforms like KDP
and CreateSpace which are both created by Amazon and you can easily create and
sell an ebook that costs you nothing to produce and even a paperback. And once
it's set up, assuming it's you create more passive income and number 12 it
goes right along with number 11 is producing an audio book. If you prefer
to share your content as an audio, you can use a platform like ACX to create
and sell your audio book on platforms like audible and iTunes. If you have a
great idea for a nonfiction audio book where you can teach a difficult skill
like stock trading, foreign currency, investing, accounting, online marketing,
or anything else, you can easily create a five
figure monthly income with just producing audio books. Last but not
least, number 13 is social media management and this final hustle is
really, really useful. Do you use social media? Of course you do, right? Well,
you could make anywhere from 25 to $250 per campaign just by sharing posts out
on Facebook, Instagram, Pinterest, or even right here on YouTube. There are so
many small to medium sized businesses out there that need your help and it's
really easy to earn. Just check out other similar posts, see what's working
for other similar types of businesses and what types of posts are getting
people's attention and unlike paid ads on Google, there is so much more
flexibility that you can do with social media such as, Hey, do you want to have
remarketing videos instead of remarketing banners? What kind of images
are you going to create so people can click through and go to your website?
It's such a fast growing industry and there is so much opportunity out there.
So we have covered everything from house-sitting creating an online course,
driving for Uber and Lyft selling items online and then some. I hope that you
