Hey everyone, welcome back to another video.
In today's video, I've got 20 work from home side hustles
that anyone can literally start today
and earn as much as $1,000 per day with very little skill.
Now if you're like most people,
your initial reaction is probably this must be a scam.
There's no way this can be true.
So to give you a little bit of peace of mind,
this is not just a list that I got from Google.
I've personally been making a full-time income online
working for myself for the last seven years.
So whether you're just looking to make some extra cash
or you're looking for something that is a full-time income
that you can start for yourself,
there's something for everyone in this video.
So starting with side hustle number one,
this is online tutoring.
Now if you're knowledgeable in any particular subject
or you have a particular skill,
you can share your expertise online with online tutoring.
The only things you're going to need for this
are knowledge on a specific topic
and a computer with a webcam along with internet connection.
Keep in mind on this one
that you do not need to be an expert on the topic,
because you may be able to tutor kids at a basic level
and you're not necessarily
going to be tutoring college level students.
Platforms like tutor.com and VIPKid
connect tutors with students,
so it makes it easy to get started.
Check out those two websites
if you think this is something that is a good one for you.
Next up is side hustle number two
which is freelance writing.
If you have a way with words,
then freelance writing
could be the perfect side hustle for you.
There are a ton of opportunities to write articles,
blog posts, even create social media content
for businesses and individual entrepreneurs.
The place that you can get started on this one
is websites like upwork.com and fiverr.com.
Essentially, both of these sites make it easy
for you to create a profile
and show off which services you offer.
Then they get a ton of organic traffic of people
looking to hire freelance writers
that'll just come automatically.
Now personally, I've hired writers many times
for my niche affiliate marketing websites
so I know that there's a big market
and a big demand for this one.
Side hustle number three is social media management.
Are you a social media wiz?
Well, most of us are nowadays.
So if so, consider offering social media management
as a service as a side hustle
for other people or businesses.
There are many small businesses and entrepreneurs
that need help managing their social media presence.
This is where you can step in
and you can create engaging content.
You can schedule posts and interact with their audience.
You'll find that this one has a big market as well
because there are simply so many businesses
and entrepreneurs who need to start a social media presence,
but they don't have the time to do it themselves.
And that brings us right into side hustle number four,
and this is graphic design.
If you have a knack for design,
why not turn that into a side hustle?
From creating logos and branding materials
to designing full-fledged websites or social media content,
there's always going to be a high demand
for graphic designers.
Again, you can use websites like Upwork and Fiverr
to create a profile and show what services you offer
and organically get in front of clients
who wanna hire people like you.
A little insider tip on this one
is you can use templates from graphic design tools
for this side hustle.
This way, you don't have to create every design from scratch
which can be a little bit difficult to brainstorm ideas.
Just make sure that the graphic design tool
that you're using has commercially usable templates.
That's going to be the big thing
you need to do here
is make sure that you can sell those templates to clients.
Now I've been doing graphic design
for my side hustles for years now.
My recommendation for you would be placeit.net.
That's the one I personally use
because their big thing is that
100% of the things on their website are commercially usable.
They're also copyright free.
Now I've been using placeit.net forever
so I have a coupon code I can share with you.
If you're interested in that,
I'll link it up down in the description.
It'll give you 15% off any of their plans.
Next up is side hustle number five
and this is a virtual assistant.
Typically, you'll see this referred to as a VA.
So by being a VA, you'll be helping busy professionals,
small business owners,
individual entrepreneurs with basic tasks.
Typically, this is going to be along the lines
of email management or setting
or scheduling appointments for them
and data entry type things.
Nothing really skilled, nothing really crazy,
just helping them as somewhat of an assistant.
If you're an organized person
and you have strong communication skills,
this could be a perfect side hustle for you
'cause you can do this from anywhere.
There are two websites I would recommend
if you want to find clients in this.
The first one, BELAY,
the second one is Time Etc.
Both of them are great for connecting people
who want to be VAs with clients looking for VAs.
Now this is another thing that I have personally hired VAs
in the past and it can be extremely helpful.
The number one issue that I ran into when hiring VAs
is finding high quality and honest workers.
So if you are going to start this side hustle,
show your clients that you do have these traits
and you'll see that you quickly build up your client list.
Side hustle number six, this is drop shipping.
With this business model, you can sell products online
without having to stock inventory.
Essentially, you'll partner with a supplier
who will ship the products directly to your customers
and there are specific websites you can use for this.
A couple of them are Shopify.
That's probably the biggest for setting up your store.
And Oberlo, which is going to be really helpful
for connecting you with the drop shipping providers.
Now getting set up with this one is a bit of work.
But once you get it set up,
it's actually pretty easy to get sales.
I've done this one in the past
and actually turned a profit pretty quickly,
but the number one thing that people won't tell you
about this one is that you are responsible
for the customer service.
This can actually become pretty time-consuming.
You're answering questions about shipping
or different products.
You're basically, you are a customer service rep
with this one.
But hey, that's where a virtual assistant comes in
so you can hire one to take over this part of the business.
That brings us into side hustle number seven
which is affiliate marketing.
Essentially, this is promoting other people's products
on a commission basis.
You can partner with companies totally for free
and they will give you a unique link
that you can share with people.
Once people click that link
and they end up making a purchase,
the company can see that you sent them the buyer
and then they send you a commission.
Now you can promote products on a blog, on social media,
you can even do it through YouTube videos
if you have a YouTube channel.
And just for some clarification,
nearly all big companies have an affiliate program
that you can join totally for free.
Some of these companies are Amazon, Best Buy, Trek Bikes.
Essentially, all you have to do is Google the name
of the company that you're thinking about partnering with
and then write affiliate program at the end
and see if a page comes up
explaining their affiliate program.
Next up is side hustle number eight,
which is print on demand.
This is one of my personal favorites
because it makes strictly passive income.
Essentially, you create designs for products
like t-shirts, mugs, and phone cases,
and you sell them through platforms
like Amazon, TeePublic, and Bread Bubble.
You basically create these designs
and you upload them to these websites.
They create a virtual listing
of what that would look like on different products.
And then when people come along and they buy these products,
the website actually handles all of the printing,
the shipping, the customer service, everything for you.
So all you have to do
is focus on making more designs, uploading them,
and creating more of these virtual listings on the websites.
This is a really good side hustle that I highly recommend.
So if you're interested in this one,
I will link up a full length step-by-step tutorial
down in the description.
Take advantage of this tutorial
because it's essentially a full-length course,
but it's totally free here on YouTube.
Moving on to side hustle number nine,
which is online courses.
So speaking of full-length online courses,
if you have expertise in a particular subject,
consider creating and selling an online course.
Believe it or not, you can record the entire course
on your computer simply using screen recording.
Then the actual selling of the course
is the easiest part, believe it or not.
There's websites that offer kind of a marketplace
for course sellers
they are websites like Udemy and Skillshare,
and they make it extremely easy to sell your courses.
You essentially create the course,
you upload it to these websites,
they do everything else for you.
Moving right along, we're on side hustle number 10
and this is stock photography.
If you are a talented photographer
or you have a passion for taking photos for things,
you should consider selling those photos online
on stock photo websites.
A couple of these websites are Shutterstock and Adobe Stock,
and essentially you'll earn royalties
for each time that someone downloads your photos
and it's basically just a great source of passive income.
Next on the list is side hustle number 11,
which is blogging.
If you enjoy writing and sharing your thoughts,
consider starting a blog.
Specifically, I recommend starting
a niche affiliate marketing website.
This is what I personally do
because you can make a lot of money with this side hustle.
Now once your blog is live
and you've started to post articles on it,
you can monetize it with a few different ways.
First would be affiliate marketing,
which we just explained before,
next would be sponsored posts,
and then lastly would be display ads,
basically running ads down the sidebar
or within your articles
just for people to see and you get paid by the advertiser.
Now a couple platforms I would recommend
for creating your blog website would be WordPress and Wix.
Next up is side hustle number 12
which is a YouTube channel.
You've probably heard this before,
but for any of you that have a passion for making videos,
I highly recommend you to consider
starting a YouTube channel.
Now creating the actual YouTube channel is very easy to do
and then all you have to do is make the videos on it.
You can make these videos on your smartphone
or you can make 'em on camera equipment
that you already own,
but basically just fill your YouTube channel
with content that you are passionate about
or something that you have expertise on.
Try to fill your videos with as much value as possible
and give people a reason to watch your videos.
Now once you start your YouTube channel,
you can monetize it with a few different ways.
First, you can earn money just through the advertisements
that play on your videos.
Second, you can have sponsored videos.
And lastly, you can do affiliate marketing
on YouTube as well.
The next side hustle on the list is number 13,
which is podcasting.
So if you're someone who enjoys talking to other people
or if you've been told that you have a good voice
that people enjoy listening to,
then I highly recommend creating a podcast
because you'll get to talk to people
about interesting topics.
And along the way,
you're likely going to meet some really cool people.
Now once you start your podcast,
you can monetize it a few different ways.
First, starting with podcast sponsorships.
You can also get donations
or you can sell your own products or services.
Next up on the list is side hustle number 14,
which is opening an Etsy shop.
So if you're someone who's a crafty person
or you enjoy making things by hand,
this could be a great fit for you.
On Etsy, people are typically selling handmade goods
but that's not really all you can sell.
When you open up an Etsy shop,
you can sell digital products.,
you can sell vintage products,
you can even potentially sell print on demand.
Etsy is just a massive marketplace that you can use
to kind of grow your side hustle off of.
Now Etsy makes it really easy to set up your shop
and their website gets a ton of organic traffic
so you're not going to have to do marketing
to bring people into finding your products.
Now again, I have experience with this.
So something that people typically aren't going to tell you
is that you are responsible
for customer service once again.
So the bigger your Etsy shop gets,
the more sales you start to get,
the more you're going to be glued to your phone
answering questions for people
trying to keep your ratings high on your Etsy store.
With that said, side hustle number 15 is up next
and that is pet sitting and dog walking.
If you're someone who loves animals
and none of these have been a good fit so far,
consider offering pet sitting or dog walking services.
Now there's websites like Rover and Wag
and they can basically be a marketplace
to help you get started and find your initial clients,
or you can simply distribute flyers.
I actually did this business
when I was younger for several years.
And after getting the first client,
word spread pretty quickly around the neighborhood
and I had a whole list of clients in no time.
Since people are going to be letting you into their house,
people really wanna know
that you are an honest person and they can trust you.
So make sure that once you meet with people,
you show them that you have those traits
and I think you'll have no problem
building up a list of clients.
Next up is side hustle number 16,
which is personal training and coaching.
So if you're someone who's passionate about fitness
or working out, this could be a great fit for you.
You can work with clients in-person
or you can even offer online coaching
through a couple different platforms.
The biggest one that I would recommend for this
is called TrueCoach.
Now my roommate actually started this side hustle
and grew it pretty quickly.
He simply offered group bootcamp style classes
in a local park
and he promoted it just on Facebook for free.
And that brings us to side hustle number 17,
which is renting out your space.
Basically, everyone has extra space in your home
or an extra vehicle.
If you rent these things out
on websites like Airbnb or Turo,
you can make some serious money with this.
Now although this one is not going to be
an online side hustle,
it's still a way that you can make extra cash
with things that you already own.
Moving on to side hustle number 18,
this is selling digital products.
If you are someone who has these skills
to create digital products like eBooks or templates
or principles, consider selling them online.
Platforms like Gumroad and Etsy
make it really easy to sell digital products
and download them to your customers pretty passively.
Now Etsy is definitely the popular platform for this one,
but I recommend looking into Gumroad
because it's an up and coming site
that some sellers are making
an absolute killing on right now.
Next is side hustle number 19, which is flipping items.
So this is actually a cool one.
If you're someone who likes to go out in person
and try to find hidden treasures,
whether that's at thrift stores or at garage sales,
this could be a great fit for you.
If you know what you are looking for
and you can buy these items at a low price,
and then if they need it,
you can spruce up the items a little bit
and then list them online on websites like eBay
or even Facebook Marketplace and sell them for a profit.
And that brings us to side hustle number 20,
which is freelance consulting.
Now in most cases, this is going to be related
to some kind of business,
but it can be anything from finance
to business strategy to marketing.
LinkedIn is going to be a great place to find clients,
but also in-person networking events
is a great way to build rapport with people pretty quickly
and give you the chance to really show them
that you're knowledgeable on that topic
to give them a reason to hire you.
And just like that, there you have it,
20 side hustles that anyone can literally start today.
Any of these side hustles will work.
All you have to do is pick one that excites you,
something you're passionate about,
and get started building it today.
