Best Side Hustles

1. Blogging

Starting a blog is a very rewarding experience. You just need to remember it’s a long term asset, not a get rich quick scheme.

2. E-commerce

This is now significantly easier to get started with. You can find suppliers with existing products and ask them to place your branding. Selling via Woocommerce, Shopify or any of the other moder cart options is a no-brainer. The real challenge is marketing and getting traffic to your site, which I’ll be writing on.

3. Print on demand 

This is a great option to start selling basic items like clothing, jewelry, mugs and more. A print on demand company can product and ship your items to customers!

4. Youtube

Similar to blogging, Youtube has become saturated, and so it’s a long game, however due to the evergreen nature of long form videos, still very rewarding if you are willing to stick at it!

5. Freelancing

The great thing about freelancing, is you can set your own schedule and only take jobs within a certain scope.

6. Flipping

Buy low, sell high. Couches, antiques, cars, art, clothing, shoes, pokemon cards – you name it, you can flip it!

7. Stock trading

Day and swing trading can be very rewarding, however the numbers don’t lie – most people lose money when they attempt it. I have a method I use which works very well for me, which I’ll be sharing on the blog.

8. Consulting

Similar to freelancing, the great thing about consulting is your ability to set a narrow scope in which your expertise lies, and set your availability and schedule around your lifestyle!

9. Digital downloads

Photography presets, printables, e-books, art – you name it. Developing and selling digital items is a great and low cost side hustle to start. You can sell on gumroad, etsy, and many more options.

10. Make goods. Sell goods.

Don’t forget the oldest side hustle of all. Make something. Sell something. Get crafty! Etsy is a great place for inspiration!
