    One of my best and easiest side hustles was a pet sitter. I was living in a smallish city of 350 000 people. The one and only kennel closed, so people had few economical options to place their pets when went on vacation (and weren't able to bring their pets with them). My beloved kitty had died and I wasn't in a situation to get a new one. To make a long story short, placed an add on Kijiji offering my services as an at-home cat sitting service. I got to keep people's cats in my apartment (usually one at a time) and charged 10$ a day for this, plus they supplied their food/litter. It was great because I got to take care of people's cats in my home. It wasn't hugely lucrative (300$/month at best) but I got a "free" cat that kept me company for very little effort. The owners were also happy that their cat or cats were not alone. It paid for groceries at the time (this was 10 years ago and I lived in one of the cheapest cities in Canada).

    When I was downsizing I sold a ton on Facebook marketplace and yard sales. I have to say now that I absolutely hate selling. I was not made to be a seller. 😂 I’d rather give it all away than to negotiate and deal with a lot of people. I found it to be so stressful. Now I just donated anything I don’t want. But I admire people that can do this well and enjoy it. You are awesome 😎 I love your ideas. Keep up the good work. I appreciate you and your insights.

      @seltzermint5 6 дней назад

      These days I feel the same way. When I sold things on Craigslist around 2007-2012 it was very different to facebook marketplace (for example), no one had my actual name and details or even in most cases my phone number for texts and such. I just communicated with them via email and met up at a busy supermarket parking lot for transactions. I wasn't struggling financially in those days and I'm not "rich" now...but I definitely needed extra cash more than I do now. My priorities have changed and I'm much happier donating most things. For me now an item would need to be minimum $200-300 for me to consider selling online. I also stopped doing garage sales, which are popular in my area. I have a garage and some of my friends do not and have suggested we have a big sale at my house. I simply laugh. It's not gonna happen!

    • @Bawkr
      @Bawkr 6 дней назад

      It's tough when you know some one is low balling just have to be firm and keep the item if it means that much to you. Becomes much easier for stuff that you're thinking WOW you're giving me THAT for this!? So it goes both ways. I like to pay up when I'm buying a vehicle because I hate being low balled and talked down. But when it comes to stuff I can do without sometimes ill shoot a percentage off usually not a high percentage because if I don't have the money for it I'm not trying to buy it anyways. Thing I hate dealing with the most is sellers who won't say 'I have some one else on the hook for this, I'll let you know if they don't get it.' That's literally all I would hope they would say but most people are complete A holes and string you along then sell to some one else when you're on the way there or worse.

      Same. I tried selling like since I was 10 or so. But I never liked it. At times I give away an item off which I could easily make $50 but I find it onerous to take pictures, write description, answer questions. Etc. Plus if it doesn't sell in like a week I feel a little impatient.😂

    My father is retired and he help my sister with flipping items from marketplace. My sister would check out the marketplace and bring the item to my father to renew. One example is faded chandelier in need of polishing. Get a nice picture of it in a bright sunny room and my sister would relist it in the marketplace at higher price.
    My father also grow things in the backyard. Most of it is to eat and canning/pickling, but any extras are traded with my extended family members. We'll trade crops like bok choy, spinach and fuzzy melons. There's a lot of seed trading too. Seeds from a plant that grew in your local area for multiple years will result in healthy strong plants, resilient to your local habitat.

    I've had T1 diabetes for almost 4 decades. I've done tons of focus groups on T1. I live in a high altitude town, so companies that make blood test meters wanted to test them at altitude. They gave us supplies for these new meters, and supplies for whatever meter you already used. All you had to do was test the same drop of blood on both their meter and your meter, and record all the results. Not only did I make about $350 for about a month of doing daily blood tests that I already did anyway, but I got free supplies for my own meter which saved me money. Well worth it!

    I have an Etsy shop as a side hustle where I sell crochet patterns as digital downloads. There's definitely a lot of work dreaming up a project, trying to make it (version 1), adjusting the process to improve the end result (version 2), creating it yet again while writing out the pattern steps and taking photos (version 3). But once it's created and uploaded to my Etsy shop, I can sell that one pattern to countless people forever. Only thing is that you never quite know how well a particular crochet project will go over with people. Some of the ones I like best haven't performed like I would have liked. Others, that I don't think are my best, to the point I didn't think hardly anyone would want to learn how to do it, have done pretty well. You just never know. Another thing is that each pattern I sell isn't for a lot of money. So this side hustle is a trickle of income rather than a stream. But it's fun, if sometimes frustrating.

      How do you deal with thieves? I’ve had someone stole a large chunk of my work. At that point I just wanted to give up. (I’m feeling much better now.) The risk with selling digital products is people with no respect to copyright and intellectual property.

    • @OnlineMarketMom
      @OnlineMarketMom 5 дней назад

      @@molamolalaaa2968 the digital downloads I sell can only be downloaded and printed once to each customer. Sure, someone could then photocopy it, I suppose. But that's true of almost anything. For the most part, people wanting to crochet their own gloves or make a pair for a family member are not downloading my patterns in order to turn around and resell the pattern to someone else. They may make several pairs of gloves and sell them at a craft show, I suppose, but they would be limited in how many pairs they could whip up. The cost of the materials (yarn) and the time it takes to make a pair of gloves, wouldn't make it worth selling in large numbers. What they could charge for a finished pair of gloves would cover the cost of the materials (yarn), but not the time it takes to make them. So for small, handmade items, it makes sense to me -- better sense, actually -- to sell patterns, than to sell physical products. People who buy my patterns do so because they love to crochet and think it's cool (I guess) to be able to make something for themselves and their loved ones.

    My best side hustle ever was tutoring calculus and statistics. Lots of non-STEM people have to take stats, Public Health and Business for example. They dread it so they put it off until their final year, then they panic when they're bombing. You can charge VERY well.

    The credit card thing usually gives you a time limit which makes it hard to spend on just your needs like groceries gas etc
    Like $3,000 in 30 days… i think i spend way less on basic necessities than that
    I have a mango tree in my backyard that gives way more mangoes than i can eat and give away
    So i sold them by batches of 10 for $20 on facebook marketplace
    One day after a very windy night i had 30 and a lady came and bought them all!
    Had a few repeat customers but the tree gives for only about 2-3 weeks but i sold about 100 mangoes. Made $200
    And i did eat some and give some to friends and relatives

      You can line up credit card deals for when you know you'll be spending a large amount in a short time. For example, you could wait until you're paying for a vacation, a new car, or a new computer. Make sure your target purchases qualify under the deal you pick.

      @@abrahams.lincoln6749 You would be shocked by the amount of perfectly good food that gets tossed.
      1. Generally speaking, people confuse "sell by" and "best by" dates for expiration dates. They're not. USDA publishes good info on this, and FEMA actually has useful guidelines for recovering and sanitizing food during natural disasters that apply (e.g. soak cans in 10% bleach solution for 10 minutes, spray cellophane with isopropyl alcohol, etc.).
      2. At most grocery stores, if there's one apple or potato or whatever in a bag that goes bad or gets bruised, they toss the whole bag. Or, you know, the whole pallet of watermelons because one got busted and they're sticky.
      3. At chain stores especially, if products are damaged during shipping, they're covered by the trucking company's insurance. So if, say, there's a leaky bottle of laundry detergent, or a busted jar of olives in a case of say, 12, they toss all 12, even though the sell by date is in some cases years down the road.
      4. Many stores simply toss their returns, or online orders that aren't picked up. Many companies/contractors intentionally order more than they need for a project and toss the excess when it's done.

    Only ones I've done are side jobs as an electrician, any trade that has residential work can do this. Advertise your services online and handle the business end yourself and you can scale it to whatever level you want. People often don't want to pay full price for a company to come in and do it, and if you're working alone, you can often undercut them. I've known guys who are good and their services spread through word of mouth fast and they have more business than they can handle. You do have to work with the customer directly so it may not be for everyone but you sure can make a living if you want to.

Ive delivered papers/flyers. I reviewed product like tested it and then gave the manufacturer feedback about it, wrote a few articles for them, i helped a friend with her business and helped with sign/vinyl installation. Ive done pet sitting for weeks or a month at a time. My latest is in my shop is I'm designing and selling vinyl decal stickers that i print and cut. I do it in my spare time, when it's quiet, and it only brings a few bucks a week, like $10-20, from about 6 deisgns out, but meh, it's fun, and they seem to do ok. I only sell them for $2.50 ea. I tried to do the focus groups but got rejected. My other friend seems to get picked often enough. She also does pet sitting and runs and antiques booth on weekends, otherwise she is a par time tracher.
    Im considering the plants because each year my Yucca, hostas, and succulants go crazy and repop so its just money in the ground.

    There was a great version of credit card churning a friend of mine did years ago, when they’d offer 0% interest on anything INCLUDING CASH ADVANCES for the first +/- 12 months. Get the card, draw out as much cash as they’d allow, then put the money in high-yield savings. At the end of the introductory offer, just yank the money out of savings and pay off the card.
    Not gigantic money exactly but it’s a 4% yield spread or whatever you’re earning in savings, and it’s about five minutes of work per month! Unfortunately I don’t think there’s a lot of those true zero percent offers around anymore

I just can't stand dealing with the 90 % of responders who ask stupid questions that can be answered by reading the ad or questions that don't matter or they just ghost you. Oh yeah, not to mention the endless, pathetically obvious scams.

    They used to do focus groups in the mall. They didn't pay that well, but sometimes you got some free products for sitting down and answering a few questions. I think they stopped working out of malls shortly after I discovered them.

    I've been doing online arbitrage for almost 10 years now. It's been my most favorite side hustle I've done. I don't consider it work as I actually have fun doing this. Online arbitrage has allowed me to own nicer things for the home for either almost nothing or I made money from the items I own (ex: constantly buying the same item dirt cheap and reselling online for more.)

    I do a lot of online focus groups and market research. It pays pretty well for the time and effort that's involved and I really enjoy seeing other human faces because I am a self employed business of one and work from home. I've never seen any that pay what you got, but we are now post pandemic and I'm in the UK. Still worth it though. :)

    I'm trying furniture flipping myself. First two furniture's I flip i did no work on them. I just bought them from a garage sale cheap and sold them more than what I bought it for. I'm currently trying to sell my 3rd furniture. The 3rd one I found abandoned, decided to take it home fix it up and paint it. Not selling as fast as I hoped which is a bummer. I do have a RUclips channel which is similar to yours. It's basically a Finacial channel. Did like the video. Even though I didn't pay anything for the 3rd furniture it's probably still going to be a lost after buys the sander, paint, wooder fillers and the brushes. Of course, I can reuse it all if I decide to do another project. I live in a small apartment, so it was a hassle trying to find space to paint.

    Focus groups are weird. When I canceled cable I ended up in front of a one way mirror explaining why for $250, but that was nowhere near as lucrative as when I had "IT" in my job title and had companies throwing themselves at me to discuss why I didn't buy their products... though the free Diet Pepsi in the mail made focus groups more fun.

    I sell vintage housewares and kitchen stuff on Etsy. It’s more of a part time job. I have been doing some version of this since college when I started selling clothing on eBay. Back then you had to learn HTML to make a listing and invest in a digital camera because there were really no phones with cameras built in! It was also a lot easier to sell because less people did this due to the initial costs and having to learn more than you do now.

    I was asked to do a “side hustle” as the “Director of the Advance General Practice Residency” program at a major trauma hospital in Oakland, California (one time the city was named the murder capital of the USA). I weighed the pros and cons of teaching new doctors in a trauma center versus working in a large healthcare company making a lot of money (“money talks and bullshit walks”). I chose to work at the health insurance company because I don’t like to teach despite my post graduate degrees (BA, MD, MS, MPA). I couldn’t be happier because my gross income for 2023 was over $700,000.00!!! Laughing all the way to the bank!!! Life is good.

    I've been doing focus groups in my area for many years. The firm I use the most has gone from paying cash to a prepaid credit card to a prepaid digital credit card that is sent to you minutes after your focus group concludes. If you read the fine print, you can sometimes convert your digital CC to cash that will be deposited to your bank account for a small fee. That is my personal preference, your mileage may vary.

      I've also noticed a positive change in the way I'm paid by research companies. I think they have started to realize participants expect a quicker payout. A decade ago it was so common to wait 10 weeks to receive a check in the mail LOL now it's usually instant or at most 10 days later to receive an e-reward.

    Mock jury, all online, pd via PayPal. Similar to credit card bonus but with no credit score damage, open checking and savings accounts for bonus. Terms vary; maybe need direct deposit for set number of months or need certain account balance for set number of months. Clinical trials - especially in stage 3 - can last a few years -- GREAT money.

    I used to do focus groups many many years ago. They even had ones that served you lunch. I don’t think I ever made more than $40 or $50 but this was a good 20 years ago. I think the last one was BuzzFeed when it was starting up. Even if they still have them around here which I don’t know if they do they’re very demographic based and I’ve aged out of the demographic now. I used to do online surveys also.
