We Hustling Cash.

We Hustling Cash.

Yeah, Hustling Cash, and it's a part two and I've always always enjoy a good sequel. In our last episode, we were talking about making money online, as you referenced, and we talked about a bunch of online jobs that can actually be pretty hard to make money out of. Right, We're talking about kind of the number of people in the engagement, the relationship that you need to build with people if you want to be an influencer, and kind of how many downloads you need to make money from podcasts and things like this. We're going to turn that around. We're going to come up with a whole bunch of ideas, a whole stack of online opportunities to make money. Think of this as a list of digital side hustles, right, can we make a living online? Maybe we need to combine a few of these things into this list. Shall we get started? Why not? I'm not even going to set us a target. I'm not even going to say we'll do ten.

I'm not even going to set us a target. I'm not even going to say we'll do ten.

I like the name, I like the number ten. I'm a bit of OCD, so ten's good for me.

I like the name, I like the number ten. I'm a bit of OCD, so ten's good for me.

Okay, maybe we will set a target. Then I was just going to say, we'll just keep going until we run out of ideas. But let's set Let's set ten and there might be a couple of bonuses along the way. Etsy is huge, are you are you? Do you make anything on Etsy? So it's like a marketplace, right yes?

Okay, maybe we will set a target. Then I was just going to say, we'll just keep going until we run out of ideas. But let's set Let's set ten and there might be a couple of bonuses along the way. Etsy is huge, are you are you? Do you make anything on Etsy? So it's like a marketplace, right yes?

So Etsy is traditionally like handmade items like jewelry, candles, like harm decoorps. So I have purchased many time off Ittsy. In fact, the pillows on my children's come from Etsy, from a store from Poland.

So Etsy is traditionally like handmade items like jewelry, candles, like harm decoorps. So I have purchased many time off Ittsy. In fact, the pillows on my children's come from Etsy, from a store from Poland.

Really. Yeah, it's it's a global marketplace. Like if you were to have a an Etsy shop and you were making something, whether it is kind of pillowcases or candles or something, you might be selling to somewhere anywhere in the world. We're in the world. Okay. So it's essentially like the equivalent of like your Saturday morning market at your like your kid's school or something like that, where everyone kind of brings and sets up their stalls, except for the fact that this is a global.

Marketplace and now it's not just you know, homemade items if there's digital downloads as well, so you know, planners and organizers and templates and artwork and stock photos. And there's also like vintage goods on itsy so you know, thrifted fashion collectibles, you know, rare books.

Hmen.

Hmen.

Really, yeah, it's amazing. I mean it'sy is sort of getting that way with Amazon, but more unique, quirki things that you're you know you're going to find once offs.

Really, yeah, it's amazing. I mean it'sy is sort of getting that way with Amazon, but more unique, quirki things that you're you know you're going to find once offs.

Okay. So it feels like it's it's perhaps got a closer to eBay in some ways.

Okay. So it feels like it's it's perhaps got a closer to eBay in some ways.

That but it's got more of a store feel, okay, whereas Eba you're kind of with an individual that might have a store, but you can you know, it's very intuitive of the way they used. You click on one item that will show you a whole range of other items that that person makes, or a whole range of other items made that are similar made by other stores. Okay, all right, it's a different experience.

But you need some skills right for this, don't you? You need to actually be able to make something.

But you need some skills right for this, don't you? You need to actually be able to make something.

You can't just like moves your whole pile of like wax and put a string in it and call it a candle.

You can't just like moves your whole pile of like wax and put a string in it and call it a candle.

No, you may be able to, Okay, So that's number one. Number two we mentioned eBay, like online marketplaces like eBay, like gum Tree, like Facebook marketplace, all of these ones.

No, you may be able to, Okay, So that's number one. Number two we mentioned eBay, like online marketplaces like eBay, like gum Tree, like Facebook marketplace, all of these ones.

Deep Hoop as well Country Yeah, d one Deepop.

Deep Hoop as well Country Yeah, d one Deepop.

What's that?

What's that?

Clearly you're not buying preloved clothing, so deep deep Hop is where you can buy Sha. I bought a dress the other day of Deepop. I wanted this dress. It's sold out of my size. Really annoyed, upset, called all the stores they call other stores for me anyway, couldn't get it. Jumped onto deep Op. I found it within like thirty seconds in my size, and the person had worn it twice and in fact, when it came it had the tag still attached. And I paid about thirty percent of the original retail price.

And I paid about thirty percent of the original retail price.

Really yeah, but this person had worn it with the tags still on.

Really yeah, but this person had worn it with the tags still on.

I know, she said, I'd want it twice. So she's worn it with the tags on?

I know, she said, I'd want it twice. So she's worn it with the tags on?

And did she have like you know how they put on a B ANDWT brand new with tags.

And did she have like you know how they put on a B ANDWT brand new with tags.

No, she said she'd worn it, so she couldn't say it. She could have actually lied and said she had never worn it and sold it to me. Then I thought it was brand new because it had the tags on.

No, she said she'd worn it, so she couldn't say it. She could have actually lied and said she had never worn it and sold it to me. Then I thought it was brand new because it had the tags on.

Yeah, I'm very skeptical about.

Yeah, I'm very skeptical about.

It, misleading, very I was to go if that person was to lie, but so put on them for being honest. But they could have actually technically probably gotten away with it because it literally arrived feeling brand new.

It, misleading, very I was to go if that person was to lie, but so put on them for being honest. But they could have actually technically probably gotten away with it because it literally arrived feeling brand new.

I would have asked to see the receipt to make sure that that said. It all sounds mighty suspend anyway, that's not like you to be skeptical, I am. I'm very very skeptical, and I'm very cynical. Okay, So Deep Pop Deepop, Superba, Facebook, Marcroplace, gum Tree selling stuff, selling.

I would have asked to see the receipt to make sure that that said. It all sounds mighty suspend anyway, that's not like you to be skeptical, I am. I'm very very skeptical, and I'm very cynical. Okay, So Deep Pop Deepop, Superba, Facebook, Marcroplace, gum Tree selling stuff, selling.

Stuff, you know, And I interviewed someone for sher Mum's fireplay out of My Thin Air series where she found items on the side of the road and would sell them on gum Tree. She made when she started counting because she said this is actually making quite a bit of money. She made over twenty two thousand dollars.

Wow.

Wow.

So you particularly you've got something you've bought and it's now become quite rare. You can often sell things quickly but also at a profit. It's a great way obviously decluttering. So you know, they're on my marketplaces like as I said, eBay, gum Tree, Deepop, and you can use you know, drop shipping as well, where you don't actually hold the infantry, so you're selling something that you've designed and created, but it's manufactured and goes from the manufacturers straight to the buyer.

Okay, which actually takes out a lot of logistics figures. Yeah, yeah, okay, I like that one. Okay. So that's number two. Number three online courses. What explain this one?

Okay, which actually takes out a lot of logistics figures. Yeah, yeah, okay, I like that one. Okay. So that's number two. Number three online courses. What explain this one?

This is huge and a lot of influencers make a lot of money, particularly in America. So this is where you're teaching a skill you know, photography, fashion, coding, social media, personal development, even finance through an online program and you sell the course and it kind of like there's a lot of work upfront to create the actual course, the program, the filming of the content or the writing of the content, and putting it all together and you know, getting it ready, so it's a proper finished product. But once it's live and you've got a good marketing plan in place, it can be quite a passive income stream. But there is obviously a lot of effort required upfront, and you do need to have some sort of marketing plan in place. But you know, there's a Kajabi teachable think think ific Demi. I think it's called.

I think it's called.

Those ones. I've only ever seen it written, I've never actually said it out loud, and now that you, let's call it you Demi. Okay, I'm sure someone will let us know if we got it wrong.

Those ones. I've only ever seen it written, I've never actually said it out loud, and now that you, let's call it you Demi. Okay, I'm sure someone will let us know if we got it wrong.

I do not around sounding like an idiot pronouncing it incorrect.

I do not around sounding like an idiot pronouncing it incorrect.

You know there's going to be a video about this now and appearing on your social media because I'm sure that you just said it. Yeah, that's great to you? To me? You to me? Is that what I said originally? I don't know anymore. Memory you have successfully confused me. That is quite something.

You know there's going to be a video about this now and appearing on your social media because I'm sure that you just said it. Yeah, that's great to you? To me? You to me? Is that what I said originally? I don't know anymore. Memory you have successfully confused me. That is quite something.

Getting a great free shouto.

Getting a great free shouto.

Golly okay, so creating and selling courses on these platforms, but again you need to have it. You need to have an area of expertise, but a lot of people have an area of expertise on something right, and the beauty of this is it can be niche right and probably actually the more niche it is the better because it means you won't be competing with so many other people setting up courses exactly. Okay, so that was number number three. Number four is why are you laughing at me or read? Is it because I get uncomfortable? Is it because I go read? When we talk about.

Normally the more inappropriate one've got your wind in the gut. But I think this is an important one to be spoken about it. I think, well, it has great sentence and awareness, and it is a booming.

You know, industry industry. So we're talking niche content here, quite niche content, say, for instance, only fans, which has really become a lot more popular in recent years.

You know, industry industry. So we're talking niche content here, quite niche content, say, for instance, only fans, which has really become a lot more popular in recent years.

Yes, so there's only fans. There's Patron, and there's substack. So Patron and substack are not for obviously adult entertainment. So basically the way Patron and substack work is there for writers and artists and educators. So again it allows you to create special, unique content that is separate from your free, normal social media content on Instagram or YouTube or TikTok where people pay a feed like a monthly fee, or they pay a fee to access a certain level or amount of content that you create, and it's another way of monetizing your content that you'd normally be just giving away. And you know, it has been incredibly popular with a lot of YouTubers where they have additional value they can add to people, but they actually want some sort of financial compensation for the value that they're giving.

Okay, And I feel like this is actually one point where we need to say that a lot of these platforms, right you're actually seeing people be really successful and making quite a lot of money, and they're actually been really quite savvy from a business perspective because you see a lot of there are a lot of news websites that love stories about people succeeding, particularly and say the adult content and talking about these phenomenal sums of money that they're making. But these people are also then talking and I'm putting away X amount for tax and kind of doing all this and they're like, it's actually really smart.

And that's the thing. You know, we touched on this on the previous episode. Whilst this is you know, it could be a site hustle. It's still taxable. Yeah, and you still have you know, things that you can claim is a deduction. You might have to do superinnuation. You need to have the right legal setup as well, so.

And that's the thing. You know, we touched on this on the previous episode. Whilst this is you know, it could be a site hustle. It's still taxable.

You're still treating it as income.

Yeah, it's not a bit of extra spending money cash on the.

Side, secret money. Okay, that was number four, Number five Virtual assistant. I think this is really interesting.

Side, secret money. Okay, that was number four, Number five Virtual assistant. I think this is really interesting.

I know quite a few virtual assistants and it's particularly I see the common trend is moms with young children, you know, kids still at school because it's very flexible hours and they can sort of pick and choose what clients they want to work with and what jobs you know, they're willing to take on. What do they do quite incredible, So anything from you know just basic everyday admin and the life admin, you know, buying, organizing Christmas presents or birthday presents or wedding anniversaries, booking trips, organizing your calendar, doing social media, even some editing work as well, proof reading, copywriting, customer service like it really is quite incredible, and you know, working for particularly like entrepreneurs who are quite time poor, who just don't necessarily need a full time assistant, but they need someone who they can just get them to clear their box or to make sure all the bills are set up, or to make sure they haven't forgot any important family events, or to help proof read things before they're sent off. So it's actually, you know, you can charge by the hour, or you can have like a set fee for a certain amount of work, you know.

Per month.

Per month.

But it allows a lot of flexibility. And you know a lot of people do this remotely from all over the.

But it allows a lot of flexibility. And you know a lot of people do this remotely from all over the.

World, so they're doing it from home, doing it alongside and it is all online.

World, so they're doing it from home, doing it alongside and it is all online.

Yeah, it's a low barrier to entry. Yes, you have to be someone who's you know, really great with their organizational skills because ultimately you're helping someone else with their lack of organizational skills and obviously knowing how to network, how to build a business, you know, how many clients you can have. The only downside i'd see and correct me if I'm wrong, is it's not that scalable. At the end of the day, you can only handle a certain amount of work. There are any certain amount of hours in the day. So with like a you know, a patron account, you know, more members you've got, there's no more extra work involved where it substack.

Yeah, same thing kind of. The more you grow, the more kind of and you're still putting in the same amount of work. You're just amplifying your income. But this could well suit someone. This could well suit someone who has a few hours and has some skills, or just has some time and is able to actually provide that support to somebody else.

In fact, I know a VA who does sets up people's online courses. She's an expert in kajabi and webinar and all those sort of back end programs that all need to be synced up together, and she specializes in that.

So two, I used a virtual assistant. Recently. I was setting up a newsletter through my to talk about books and writing and things. And as part of that, I needed some branding done within my social media and it was to match kind of my writing and my website and all of these things. And so there is there was a wonderful person who was a writer herself, and on the side she does virtual assistant and sets up all of these things, and she set up my newsletter. She provided me all these templates for social media, which is Michael Thompson, author on Instagram, did the desperation come out just then? Please?

You shouldn't be despert, should be proud. I really enjoy when a story flashes up on my Instagram.

You shouldn't be despert, should be proud. I really enjoy when a story flashes up on my Instagram.

Very discerning in what I share. But it was really really good, Like it was just like identifying something that I can't do. I just don't have those visual skills. And she did and she did it and did it all remotely, did it all from home, provided me with everything done, and it was quick and it was affordable, and it was just it was great.

Tom muses Avia as well. Really yep, she's lovely and she when he hears a lot of his stuff, he'll do his reports just into a voice memo and just emails it to her so he doesn't even need to write it down. And he was swearing because Tom's not has got a bit of a gut of mouth. She didn't realize and she put the swearing in the report for clients.

It was perfectly fine.

It was perfectly fine.

We all have it. Really we had a really good laugh. All right. So that's the first five. We're going for ten here. Let's take a quick break and come back with the next five ways to make a living online. Can we are talking about making money online basically a whole bunch of digital side hustles. Number six graphic design. We kind of alluded to this one previously. You can do all of this online remotely.

Number six graphic design. We kind of alluded to this one previously. You can do all of this online remotely.

Yeah, so there's ninety nine designs. There's a five Canva templates, so you know, you can design logos and social media graphics like you know your colleague did for you, website banners, and you can also sell pre made templates on Etsy and the creative marketplace, so you know, it can be a really creative process that you can do, you know, after hours, like which is a perfect site hustle from home. And you can also make it into a passive income if you're able to sort of sell a package or a course on how to do this for yourself, so you're not just giving people the material as you're teaching them how to do it themselves.

I like that again, it plays to your strengths and helps people who don't have those strengths, because graphic design is just something that even though Canva makes things so easy now, I still have the unique ability to make even a Canva template look terrible.

I don't know, how why am I not surprised to hear that?

I don't know, how why am I not surprised to hear that?

Oh there we go a little bit, a little bit of snark sneaking back into what was overwhelmingly a positive podcast s up until that point. Okay, so graphic design is number six. Number seven is one that really does require a bit of knowledge, right, Web development.

Yeah, seo. So obviously building websites to search engine optimization, managing blogs, managing forums. So obviously this can be in a really high demand because if you've got to have an online presence these days, So yes, you are going to need some technical skills coding and website design, and obviously a bit of a creative mind as well, and understand what a website needs to be an intuite, easy to use one. But this can actually feel good at it can be highly profitable, and I know for myself, I've spent tens of thousands of dollars on my own website. You know, if you find someone who's good, they're worth their weight in gold and you'll pay for it.
