I started a residential garbage service a couple years ago. I’ve been pretty successful with it but one thing I’ve learned is that nobody is going to do the job as well as I do. One piece of advice I disagree with is finding help to do the labor for you. When I’ve hired help, I end up redoing most of the work they do and when I hire someone to drive my second truck I get phone calls. Keep your hustle within the bounds of what you’re able to either do yourself or at least, what you can put oversight on. Don’t hire someone to run the operation for you because if/when they start slacking, it’s not their name that suffers, it’s yours.
Reselling is a good side hustle. I sell on eBay. I am not killing it, but I am bring in $1000 extra a month. I started with selling thing I already owned and didn't have any use for. Then I started buying things from Flea Markets, Thrift Stores, Estate Sales, and Estate Auction. I sell things in the "Man Cave" niche. Easy things to find. Cheap to buy second hand, And decent resell profit to be made. Down side is space. You need to have enough room to stores some of these items until they sell. I have close to 500 items in my eBay store at this moment. Every Saturday I go out hunting items (Keep logs of milage for tax write offs, and do your person shopping at the same time). Sunday I clean them, take photos and post them on eBay. The rest of the week I work a full time job. I get up in the morning. Pack what sold, and drop them off at the post office while I am on lunch at work. Best part is, that start up to do this was Free. But people thing "Well What about Shipping materials" Places are always getting rid of cardboard boxes. Where I work. We get shipments in all the time. So I get boxes, and packing supplies for free. I told my boss it's like recycling and they don't have to do any to recycle. So if you got a cell phone with a camera, and internet. Just find some stuff that you can sell, and get to it. You can scale it to you needs and abilities as you go.
Yes I think that scrap metal recycling might be # 6 side-hustle in & of itself. Garry Tibbo the "TRUTH WARRIOR" & wild weeds expert did scrap metal recycling on the side & made $800. a month & says it's possible to make $100,000 a year if you get serious.
@@AnthonyTromblee I do OK. Best part is I'm my own man, I set my own hours, I can live very cheaply, and there is no end to the stuff. Down side is fluctuating scrap price.
A relative of mine had an urban side hustle for serval years. He started with a car, a rod across the back seat that could hang suits, and several garment bags. He went to a bunch of offices and offered a pickup and delivery service of suits to be dry cleaned. (He ended up owning three dry cleaners before he retired.)
House cleaning is a very low entry cost side hustle. I would also recommend that you do NOT purchase equipment like vacuum cleaners for the business. Use the client's vacuum. You could be cleaning a house with a pest infestation and unknowingly spread it to another client.
You can clean anything with a steamer, you can put alcohol in one and kill/clean bed bugs, fleas and most infestations. A steam extractor is even better but way more expensive a good industrial steamer that'll steam a small house of a tank is only like $150
Guitar teacher here, let me tell you, there is ZERO market for online lessons, all my students come to me saying those do not work, which I agree with. Also, easy availability of FREE ONLINE GUITAR lessons makes the balloon go pssssstttt.
There are a lot of good side hustles if you think outside the box. Service jobs are always good, like pooper scooper, personal shopper, errand runner for the elderly or disabled...or lazy, And one that I do. I germinate seeds for planting in gardens. Some people think that these are better than store bought plants so you can charge a bit more per plant. The most expensive thing are grow lights, and even that isn't bad. I'm retired and decided to make some cash out if a hobby! It's fun for me, AND lucrative!
This is awesome to hear! How/where do you sell your plants? Thanks again for sharing your experience, it can be inspiration to someone with similar interests. Really glad you're doing something you love to do!
I started with junk removal in September 2020, I decided I'm going to buy a trailer, because I'd wanted one for years already. It opened my eyes to do many different businesses. I've done demo, landscaping, handyman work, etc I also ended up buying a bobcat mt100 in 2021 and it's led to even more work
I think Worm Farming could make this list! Worms sell for a pretty penny per pound, and they also create the best fertilizer on the planet... Worm Castings, aka Black Gold! I raise millions of worms for fertilizer for my garden and to teach others how to care for them :)
My Dad always said. To make a living, you need to know two things. A skill trade and know how to hustle for a buck. I actually learned 6 skill trades and been hustling for a buck since I was 13 years old. Started out as selling candy door to door. Box of Chocolate Carmel Turtles. Been a great sales man since. I also did house cleaning for 4 years straight. But I also did lawn work, minor house repairs, grocery shopping and even did banking. Today I buy and sell anything; mainly Flea Market stuff and yes garage sales. I also build computer's, design websites and even do repairs on PC's and Laptop's. Love to hustle and will be doing that until I die. My first skill trade was an Masonry(brick, block and stone work). Did that for 10 years and then got into building homes. Foundation, sub-flooring, the house itself, doors, windows, internal wood work and even roofing. Work at a body shop, warehouse clerk, fork truck driver, pick and pack, assembly line, been a supervisor for a factory, and other smaller jobs. Master at many trades and Master at hustling. Love my jobs.
That’s what I’m talkin about… you will always have a way to make money with all of those skills!! I’ll do anything to make a buck, as long as it’s ethical. Like you I have done MANY things over the years, I’ve settled into a handful of passive incomes lately while I run my grocery store as my day job now. Thanks for watching and commenting!
@@upMETHOD It's work and many ask me about how I make money on the side. I tell them and they don't like the sound of it because it causing sweating from the brow is in the equation. I love the work and actually enjoy it. Selling has always been my strong point. To understand how money works. I always bring up the 37 cents challenge. You start out with 37 cents in your pocket and you'll have 7 days to turn that 37 cent into 37 dollars and only can use the 37 cents as your starting point. No access to outside funds. If you can do that, than you'll never will have money problems.
@@upMETHOD 37 cents challenge is similar to the one red paperclip challenge. I believe you can google the one red paperclip challenge. 37 cents challenge was my idea to show how easy to earn money. If you can make a margin from 37 cents and turn that into 37 dollars in 7 days. You'll can have a larger idea to make larger amounts later.
@@upMETHOD I am amazed you have not pointed out the fact that as we grow; "We are suppose to multiply": IF we are doing anything for money, "that money does not count after we have made it". IT IS like standing on a scale, as we are given more weight, the scale reset to zero and how much we make is computed from the new position. IF WE are not better to offer to others anything more than what we have in the beginning, then we are wasting our time.
A friend of mine got into sketching his local area in London. He got the idea of sketching the pubs, cafes and small businesses and then offering it to the owner. He now has a range of prints that he sells online and at markets of points of local interest and some more famous landmarks as well. Sketch once, resell as much as possible.
My brother started a detail business and worked his way up to basic wipe downs of used cars at a large dealership for $120k/year. He recently picked up an employee. Keep hustling!
@@JTLM_48442 it's used cars (trade-ins) at a major dealership. Maybe cars near you are plentiful but we can't keep them in stock here in Cincinnati. Believe it or not, doesn't bother me, I'm not losing sleep over your thoughts.
@@CincyO1974 I’m from colerain my man. I live in northern ky now. I still don’t see anyone being paid 120k/yr for “basic wipe downs” of used cars is all I’m saying
I've had a seasonal side hustle of fall leaf removal for many years now. I have a small, high sided trailer, large tarps and 3 backpack leaf blowers. My mother-in-law lets me dump the leaves in the low spot on her back 40. It pays so well, I've called into work, so I can go remove leaves.😁 I try to bid my 3 man crew at $100-$125 an hour. A side bonus is one of my customers has several apple and pear trees and she lets me take whatever I want. We usually end up canning a metric sh*t ton of apple sauce, pear syrup and pear halves every year.
I live in a small town in Tasmania. We have roughly 100 residents living here, half of which are under 18. We have a general store, tea lounge, cafe, bar, motel, hostel, post office, fire station, golf club, art gallery, thrift store, gas station, mechanic shop, tennis court, library, school, restaurant, arts center and more. Most of us volunteer some of our time to keeping these places open as they're not profitable enough to pay employees, but we don't mind because we have beautiful mountain views and a loving community.
Wow! You have a lot of businesses in your small town! I live in a town of about 1500 and we don’t have a gas station or any stores… we have a post office but they don’t deliver, a volunteer fire department ( with not enough members) and a park….
I live in the Columbia River Gorge of Washington State USA. Sounds like home except all of those places are paying employers… with the ultimate mountain/forest/waterfall views and tight nit community…. But …with cost of living… yeah, I guess AT THE END OF THE DAY we’re more or less volunteering in exchange for food and shelter in this beautiful place.!
you must have these things in mind 1. Have a long term mindset. 2. Be willing to take *risk*. 3. Be careful, if you're not spending to earn back, then stop spending. 4. Never claim to know - Ask questions and it's best you work with an assistant.
I have the side hustle of a metal workshop on wheels: mobile welding and plasma cutting I have the backup generator so I don't use customers electricity and a Milwaukee air compressor and a bunch of new batteries so no need to plug anything in the ryobi inverter makes it convenient and I even offer DIY to the custo if they agree that if they break it they buy it. Also, I help ppl move, haul scrap, have the Milwaukee and makita woodshop on wheels the plasma cutter is the most fun though and making custom exhausts
Dang Terry!! Sounds like you've got a lot going on... If by some miracle you're in North Louisiana I could probably use your welding and plasma cutting services from time to time. Metal working is something I've always wanted to learn but have never had the opportunity. Thanks for watching!
Cost to buff my boat was $150/ft. You can easily make $100k doing boats and RV’s. Cost is about $500 in tools and a small learning curve. My wifes side hustle is a pottery studio. They brought in $150k profit last year in kids classes. That was $50k extra on top of her regular job.
I"m an older woman and I"m retired and trying to live on S.S. but it's impossible! I clean houses but I am an artist. I also play drums.

Any suggestions? Thank you.
@@openyoureyes4799 You could start a youtube about your job. Cleaning is interesting. Make it creative and start filming. Just an idea. You’re on here already, may as well.
Hey “openyoureyes”, Skip is absolutely right…a RUclips channel on house cleaning is a great idea, especially if you’re an artist. There is a learning curve with story telling and video editing, and it takes time to gain traction with viewers but if you put in the effort it could pay VERY well. People love to see something go from disarray to organized. There are a number of very successful channels in a similar niche that you could watch for inspiration to get started. Look at channels for cleaning, car detailing or even restoration of old or broken items. The common theme is taking something that is run down or broken and making it new again. People also like sound… look at channels that feature ASMR for inspiration also. You could do house cleaning but also throw in ASMR tactics with scrubbing or water running and dripping. Those types of videos are addictive for some viewers. Thanks for the idea Skip! And thanks to both of you for watching. -Brian
I used to do yard maintenance with my dad when I was younger we actually made alot of money it was one of our better father/son hustles I remember people seeing me mow their lawns then giving me 20 dollar tips just because they see a young man trying to be successful 🙏 I appreciate everything god has done for me but unfortunately i need to keep making it happen 😅
All of these things are very doable. But each requires a level of knowledge. You mentioned that in the house cleaning. Lawn care is similar, just because you mow, trim and prune at your home does not mean you know how otheres want it done. And power washing is definitely one to educated before you start. A pressure washer can destroy a fence, siding and yes even concrete when use the wrong way. Power washing is my side hustle and I carry large insurance just to keep my self and customers safe and happy. Keep hustling! Good video!
😂 Had to laugh when you said 19k is a small town! We live in a town of about 14k in the Midwest and it’s not really a small town in our state! But all the things you mentioned are really doable in even small towns of a couple thousand!
Tried cleaning houses but found that some people were just beyond picky if you try this type of work it's good money but for me wasn't worth the drama from the homeowners if you try this work B cautious because some people no matter how much you clean it's never good enough some people are just born angry and entitled LOL
I've cleaned on the side for years. My clients have always been happy w my work. Cleaning requires the ability to see everything that needs to be cleaned without being told what to clean.
Just thought I would leave a comment. I honestly don’t know how your not a bigger channel yet, the editing is crisp, the video idea is interesting and the presentation is engaging (good use of b-roll). Keep it up dude, I’m subscribed now.
I'm from a town in Cali of 14,377, one side hustle I found was rather interesting and extremely overlooked; California has a thing called The Cottage Law that allows certain food items to be made in a personal/home kitchen instead of renting a commercial kitchen. You don't need a business license but you do need a retailers lic which can be obtained for free. The catch is that you cannot exceed a certain reported income at which point you will need to get a business lic. I have been making and selling my own hot sauce, seasoned salts and flavored vinegar for several years now. Best of luck Yall!!
We have the same type rules here in Louisiana. We have a good number of local folks that take advantage of it and sell at our farmers market. Thanks for the comment and for watching Tod! -Brian
He is correct. I actually started a cleaning business after watching something on RUclips. Now I have about five or six clients but the problem is getting good employees
Here's the problem at least in Miami. Pricing, no one wants to pay so you have to price within their budget. Now if you have employees and it's a big place profit margins ⬇️ but if you have alot if accounts than ⬆️
This!!! I started a cleaning business the end of last year but that is my only problem! Im the only employee and my mom helps on Sundays but it is so hard to find good people. The money is rolling in though
My wife did a cleaning business for a year in 2018 or 19. Here in WA, there are licensing, business fees, LLC, advertising, etc. Once all that was taken out, she only cleared about $15 an hour that year. If she had done it the second year, since some of those fees weren't recurring, she may have cleared $20. I forget exactly what she was charging but I think it was like $35 an hour w/ 2 hour minimum. Couldn't charge more due to competitors. She wasn't interested in scaling because if one bad employee steals something from a property, or even if they don't, but you have someone old and suspicious (like my dad who misplaces things then claims they got stolen) & they post something to social media, the business is ruined. Also, it's a physically demanding job & she could only do about 5 or 6 hours each day. She was 44 and slender but still had knee and back pain from it. And the hand pain was so bad that's ultimately why she stopped. The other problem w/ not scaling is, obviously only being able to be in one place at time. It's compounded w/ residential cleaning because so many customers want it done on Thurs or Friday so they can enjoy a clean house all weekend.
Get into new construction Cleaning. Im in year 5 and never walk away from a job making less than 100 dollars per labor hour any more. I keep it small with me and a couple people I 1099. Overhead is minimal. Add windows and you can really start making money. I do 6 digit revenue in my 5th year and never clean homes people live in anymore. Model homes are furnished so im in and out every other week for about 100 dollars each. I do about 10 model homes every other week. Basically its 4 days of work per month for 2k dollars. Not bad money.
I'm so glad I found this flipside of YT money making. I was getting so sick of all the same dudes yelling at me about how I can make five-gazillion dollars overnight for doing this or that. Hype doesn't hype me up, it sketches me out. You're much calmer and more relatable.
GREAT suggestions for side hustles/full time gigs...Being a general contractor, I utilize those "junk removal" people a lot...They're making it harder on them now, many of the dump sites require licensing to dump now...But, You can make a couple grand a day with the right guys and equipment... And the lawn/yard maintenance is a GOLD MINE...I know a guy that started with a lawnmower, His brothers and friends would break his stones...Now, they work for him...He hires Labor Ready guys during the season ( 50 sometimes)... BIG MONEY...But, finding good workers is BRUTAL now...At least in my area...
Lots of great ideas. Enjoyed the video. I noticed you mentioned a lot of the positive side, but I think to be transparent usually a business owner invests more time not less (Book keeping, Ads, Estimates, General labour, After hour fixes, etc) , takes on more financial risk (Customers who don't pay, and also paying employees) , and more headaches if you have unhappy customers (Run backs, touch ups, etc). People need to know customer care, building trust, and quality of work are probably the most important things if you want to get more business. :)
These tips are all what I expected you to say and they are all great ideas! Service-based businesses for evergreen needs like cleaning and maintenance are almost always in demand and it's easy to differentiate when you do good work.
Great video! I own a handyman business and have rentals, and despite being busy, I still have been tempted to venture into some of these other side hustles. Like others have said, finding reliable employees is the most important thing to make it work.
I know a guy who has PLENTY of money but he's just one of those guys. He can't have enough fingers in enough pies to ever be satisfied so he works from sun-up to sun-down seemingly 7 days a week, on all sorts of wacky projects that he got himself in to lol.
Side hustles is what I been doing for a long time. Selling wood is mine main hustle for the winter. And power washing vehicles and semis and many others I do year round
There is a big difference between a "side hustle", and starting a company with employees. There are lots of expenses that come with employees. Worker's compensation insurance, state mandated and county mandated benefits such as sick time and insurance, not to mention employee tax withholding and bookkeeping. Make it sound like the "business" end isn't a full time job in itself. Lol
@upMETHOD depending on the state you operate within, 1099 may not apply. If a person gets more than 60% of their income from one source... they are an employee. If a person does not get to choose there own start and stop times for work, then they are an employee. If a person makes an error and they are not liable for it, they are the employee of the liable party. If a person attempts to claim that person is a 1099 subcontractor, but then that person is placed under the restrictions of an employee, then labor fraud has occurred. Careful what you suggest to folks. Anyone that starts a business should do their homework.
@@toddgardner2826 The video is a short overview of types of side hustle ideas, it was never intended to cover every detail of your legal and tax obligations. I'm certainly not a legal or tax professional so I would never make that type of video... I have an attorney and CPA to help me when needed and I would always suggest that others have the same. You make a valid point, I suppose I should add a disclaimer to future videos advising viewer to consult legal and tax professionals when needed (I would hope that is a given, but to protect myself I should probably add it). Thanks! -Brian
I know a guy who lives in a small town and has a great little side hustle. He sells those little healing crystals that are all the rage. It must work because people keep coming back for them at all hours day or night. Although I think he’s having a hard time finding a supplier because he has to sell them in these little baggies in small amounts
Yeah he keeps texting me to bring more cold medicine and batteries. Guys so busy he can’t even make it to the store. Always looks like he’s been up for days working so hard.
I have at least one friend (Craig) who tried these magic crystals. He ended up deading himself after his girlfriend moved in with the crystal purveyor (who lived downstairs). Bets on what everyone is up to now? Hint: Well we know what Craig isn't doing... Breathing. He was 43.
Young people like myself find interacting with customers a hassle as little to 0 experience at all its definitely a delayed start to starting something, alls I can say is start small even with friends and family as you may already know them and that makes it a hole lot easier Don't give up no matter the struggle shoutout 2 anyone trying, see yalls out there.
Our average population is 1,000 people. Yes you read that right lol 😆 it always cracks me up when people say they live in small towns. We live in an avid farming town. My husband and I are both 4th generation farmers. I work at a ranch part time that uses horses for therapy. My husband mechanics on the side. We help people build fence. Work cattle. I’m considering waitressing part time again. Plus we take care of our three kids without daycare.
Just subscribed, I actually done all those side hustle before and found that one tended to lead to another job. Yard work then the customer asked if could clean the driveway and outside house by water blasting it, that led to painting the house, which led to clearing and removing things from inside the house and then detailing the vehicle. I usually do get calls for things that I don't even do but am willing. For example 3 days ago did lawn maintenance for this older lady who now just asked if I would be interested in helping move large heavy things around like furniture. Basically be the muscle . Might not sound that great but low cost just need muscle to move heavy things around.
First time I have seen this channel, seems interesting. I wonder if they have something for disabled people trying to start out. These tips are helpful, if you are physically fit.
I strongly agree with you mate. Investment is the key to sustaining our financial longevity, and not just any investment but an investment with guaranteed return.
To earn more you are required to have a multiple diversified stream of income, which is why investment is an avenue of making more money once it's profitable.
I started shoe cleaning and restoring recently, and my own RUclips channel with videos showing how to do it. I'm quite busy. Upgrading shoes, trading and selling used shoes after making them look good again.
Our small town that is most local is 12,000 or so. We have a custom back yard storage building business. We also do horse barns. 2 years ago we put in 100 self storage units and that is the ticket. My goal is 400 @ 55 per unit. You do the math. We also run a small excavation and landscaping company. My side hustle is growing. If you don't take a chance in life you will always be holding yourself back. Hustle on.
I’m retired and live in a small town, less than 2000 people for sure. I got bored and needed something to do so I started mowing lawns and can attest that this can absolutely be a very lucrative hustle. I want to say one thing though…..I live in a rural area. In areas like this people will usually have larger yards. I decided to post my ad for lawns in the city, it’s about a half hour drive but worth it because the lawns are so much smaller. I can mow 2 or 3 lawns per hour at $50 each in comparison to at least an hour for one lawn where I live. I do this part time, usually no more than 5 hours a day which includes my travel time between houses, and makes between $1000-$1200 per week. I only use a push mower but if I had better equipment and was more motivated that figure would easily double. As it stands my way of getting me out of the house and keeping busy earns me at least $1000 per week. Someone with a lawn mower and a vehicle to transport it can do very well for them self.
Zero chance you are doing a lawn every 20 minutes. Youre certainly not edging and removing grass you're just leaving shit all over the place. Nice try though.
@@bigdaddy4555 I pick and choose. I don’t do large lawns, I don’t do lawns with big hills, I don’t rake. I have customers on a schedule so the grass never gets very long. When I mow the clippings are part of the lawn, you can’t even notice them. A quick pass with the mower and a bit of trimming and I’m gone. I’m retired and was just looking for a way to keep busy. I’m not looking to work hard…..no big lawns, no lawns that haven’t been cut in a while, no big hills, etc. $50 per mow, the lawn looks good and customers are very happy. Almost all have been with me since I started 5 years ago. Yes I have lawns I’m there and gone in about 20 minutes.
My mower guy finishes my entire front yard in eight (8) minutes! I have timed him. It would easily take me an hour to do it with my walk behind, powered Honda. It’s well worth the $50 he charges, believe me. He has a mower that he does not sit on, but stands. Expensive equipment, yes. But, think about how many jobs he can mow in a day and how he saves his time. I dislike hearing mowers, so his speedy work is welcome. I focus on the weeding and gardening, something I enjoy. My mower guy also shovels my sidewalk and plows my driveway in the winter. He is always busy.
@@wassomebody2386 With a proper mower, even a proper push mower, you can zip through lawns. I’m amazed at how much money there is to be made with just a basic lawn mow.
I did one where I pulled weeds. If I were to do it again, I wouldn't pull weeds, because I ruined my shoulder. I'm too old for that. BUT, I could still be the Yard Lady if I marketed to people who have already fixed a house, and have put it up for sale. I could go pick up litter, do the mowing, maybe prune the bushes and trees, and maybe kept a plant pot for them. "Keep your yard looking great when you vacate."
My side hustle is changing light bulbs, cleaning ceiling fans, changing air filters and cleaning air returns. $50 an hour, 1 hour minimum for the time out, $35-40 if you sign a monthly contract. I turn down work in my small town. My start up cost a ladder and a shop vac which I already had.
Interesting.!!!! I' considered getting into something similar.once appn a time. If you don't mind my asking- How do you clean the returns without more specialized equipment?
Over 30 years later, I remember a fellow who stopped at the store where I had the late shift and who offered to detail my truck. This guy was ready to work and had all the equipment ready. He even used a toothbrush on the rain gutter. He did such a good job that I would have paid double if I'd had the cash on me. Over three decades later, I remember the quality of the work and the hustle of the man (who should have had a business card because I would have hunted him down for repeat work). So auto detailing for a hard worker can be a great side hustle.
Just a tip. If you want to try a side hustle, you might search for used equipment you made need. I bought a good pressure washer for about 1/3 the cost of a new one. Used mowers are easily available, and the same is true for vacuums along with carpet cleaners. Learn how to repair the equipment to keep yourself in business. Heck, I've repaired various equipment for other people as a side hustle.
Cricket business (banners, personalizing goods, t-shirts), backyard nursery, 3-D printing (and selling files you created online), plasma cutting signs, home staging business + estate clean out, carpet cleaning... look for the need in your community and try to meet it.
lol… na, that’s my “main hustle”. I own a natural foods grocery and supplement store and that just happens to be the most convenient place for me to shoot my videos.
All my kids did these and variations on these.......while in high school. One started at 12. Always had pocket money and more, and bought their own cars. Successful adults also.
Neighbor across from street does detailing. Winter doesn't slow him down at all. He said there is more demand because people want the salt off their vehicles.This morning he was detailing a truck when it was 17F out. He did install a heater in his garage but the door stays open, and he's outside as much as he's in.
@@hughbrackett343 That's incredible, if you live in an area where there are a lot of luxury cars that would be a really good niche to get into. I imagine a lot of people are scared to work on really expensive cars, so if you built a reputation for being "the guy" (or gal) that does them and does them well I bet you could make a fortune. Thanks for the comment!
I do more jobs in the winter.. a nice warms day someone will grab the hose and wash there car .. winter they will not . I’m mobile and also work at my shop on my property . I love the business.
Idk, i lived in michigan for 32 years, and car detailing never stopped by the season. Some people do it more in the winter because of the salt and snow
Bro, great video. Thanks for the reminders of all the great ways to make money!!! I’ve been self employed for a little over 5 years and it never ceases to amaze me the things I overlook. Diversifying your income streams is the single best way to grow wealth.
It's very interesting to see this video from a German perspective. It appears in the USA people are more willing to spend money for services. In Germany profit on all of these activities are extremly low. Especially in small towns people don't hire other people to do stuff for them.
In the US it is rare to learn life skills and common trades through the "intended" schooling system. If you don't learn it from your family or a close friend, you have to pay for those services later. That's probably 80% of the population that either doesn't know anything, or are too busy that they have to purchase from someone else even if they have the skills.
This is one of the reasons why America is so great. It's the land of opportunity for all. And most of us have compassion for our fellow people who want and need to earn.
If you don't find a means of multiplying your money, you will wake up one day to realise that the money you thought you had, has exhausted. Investment is a ladder to climb the financial wall.
I agree with you mate. Investment is also a bridge to creating financial longevity. And not just any investment but an investment with lots of return because there are investment that has less or no returns.
Most failures and loss on Investment usually happens when you invest without proper guide, assistance and clear analysis of the profit and risk percentage of the Investment.
it's best to have an investment *manager* who has well acquainted knowledge about Investment, to help you earn from your Investment on your behalf while you oversee the Investment growth, having hundred percent access to your portfolio.
Speaking of investment *manager* , any recommendation? . I will also want to know if while he/she handles my Investment, is my investment still accessible by me to monitor and authorize any action on the Investment portfolio?
My husband is almost 73 and has been retired for 10 years. He is busier now than when he was working. He does home and landscape upkeep. Everything but mowing! He does weeding, raking, gutter clean out, mulch, etc. Then he also builds gravel driveways with his small tractor. Then he digs all the new home foundations for a local builder. He uses the builders big backhoe. He seems to never catch up with the calls for his services but he lives and loves to work! Guess it's keeping him in great health. Plus he's got money in his pocket at all times.
Mosey, I'm sorry I don't understand your comment. I guess I must have misunderstood the point of the video. I guess I thought it was to give people ideas of how to supplement their income and I thought that's what I was doing. I apologize if I didn't understand the assignment.
This video is great for kids and people with no experience. These ideas can get people thiniiing in the right direction. However, as someone who owns a business I can tell you it is not as easy as this video makes it seem. Plus finding anyone to pressure wash or detail cars for you is way over simplified, a lot of people would rather just start their own side business and cut out the middle man.
Shark scrapper does the junk removal and appears to make good money doing it. I like these side hustles. People are willing to pay for just about anything that adds value and saves them time. Thanks for sharing.
Personal chef for the week I use to make seven meal each week and deliver them to a clients fridg up north later when he worked from home I did lunches and dinners
Started my Landscaping company as soon as the Pandemic hit. Even tho I only do it on the side, it is very good money. If you're not afraid of hard work and the sun lol, give it a shot. You'll be impressed at the money you can make
I really appreciate it! Learning how to edit over the last year has been VERY time consuming but also very fun, thank you for recognizing my efforts. Definitely trying to “make it” one day... I’ve got lofty goals for myself. Glad to have you on this ride with me, thanks for jumping on early.
Address decals / NUMBERS on the sidewalk check local older neighborhoods numbers get worn off / talk up the safety issue for police fire find your home location if the numbers are worn off Some people like maybe decals flags etc added don’t think cost to much in supplies we owned a florist back in the day and found this is needed we thought of adding this service to our deliveries 🚚. Good luck $
3 others I can think of... 1) Handyman - No license needed. If you can do home repairs, hang up blinds in windows, whatever, some old lady will pay you for it. 2) Car Mechanic - If you can fix cars, you'll always have some money in your pocket. 3) Hair dresser, barber, hair braiding - Especially when school starts. Parents need this service for their children. Especially, if they don't have a lot of money to go to a salon.
Worked about -4 days in the bookstore at the local mall, as my first job. Had enough of that, then started doing car detailing & window washing. This was back in the eary 80's in high school, and could bring in 500-600 a week in my spare time.
This was full of completely original ideas - or maybe I just watch too many channels w/ women who typical don’t suggest auto detailing as a side hustle - not to use gender norms - just explaining that’s probably why these are all fresh to me & I think they are excellent!! New sub!
Poker poker poker. By far the best gig I’ve ever had in my life. I started out playing on weekends at my local casino, now it’s turned into a full time job. Definitely flexible since I work whenever I want. I currently make 15,000 to 25, 000 a month playing 2-5 at my local casino. Get a lot of tourists and recreational players who don’t know what they’re doing especially on Friday and Saturday nights. They’re practically giving away money especially when they’re drunk and rich and are just trying to have a good time. Can easily pick up 2000-5000 on a Friday or Saturday night. Haven’t lost money on a weekend in about 8 months where I am. Haven’t had a real job in years, the freedom is amazing, plus I don’t answer to anyone. Love what I do, and you have dealers, servers, and massage therapists around that serve you, for tips of course. I feel like a boss without any of the stress lol.
Can you make a video on who to talk to? Like how do you approach a business and propose your small business (ex go to a bank and offer your window cleaning service or cleaning services)
Okay …did you mention power washing store fronts and window cleaning? My brother in law does this for a living and he can’t keep up with the sheer amount of work…they live in tampa where there an ocean breeze and salt air sticking to everything.
Housecleaning pays crazy well have dedicated customers as well as commercial accounts, but is hard work and pricing is complicated. Hauling is good money, you can drop off cards with yard sales that have large items for them to give people to haul those large items home on weekends (just make sure to get mileage and figure pricing according to refill cost verses what you paid for filling up prior to), as well as getting in touch with storage units that need units cleaned out when their customers abandon their storage items (many times they will give you items you can then flip for extra cash) or listing with a local group or website. Power Washing is also a great one (think car wash also offer detailing and vinyl siding, concrete washing, etc), I also do outside windows (have a 30 foot extendable pole for that as part of cleaning services (think up-sell to existing customers and business when building maintenance just cannot get to in a timely fashion). I also raise plants from my own via cuttings and seeds, and help people establish small garden with advise regarding food storage and plant needs. Meal planning and weekly cooking is one you didn't mention, babysitting and pet-sitting, and house-sitting (when people go away on Vacation) Security checks for empty housing (pick up mail, check doors and windows, turning off or on lights) are also great. And my personal favorite is photography, don't just think wedding pictures. You can do car photography, family images, commercial shooting, stock shots, and selling your best shots at local craft fairs. I started out with one side hustle and took a percentage of every payment to work towards extending my work via equipment and once you get a business license all future investments in equipment can be used as a tax break. Now I make more doing side hustles than I ever did working for someone else, control my hours and availability and can take off to travel when I choose (the busier you are the more in demand you are). My clients may start out as one area and extend into others and I am constantly signing on new clients and subcontracting out for passive income (choose your employees carefully and vet them well). And finally caregiving, cost you 50 dollars a year for first aid and CPR certification via American Heart and membership to a listing site but you can pick and choose your clients and pays better than most unskilled labor jobs (Is what led me down this rabbit hole of potential earning jobs). And finally Airbnb, invest in land and rent out your units, can be as simple as a primitive campsite or as complicated as a home you choose which you are willing to maintain.
I really appreciate the dedication in each video you post, I learn a lot watching your videos and it has been helpful to me. Thanks to Mrs Cora James for improving my portfolio. Keep up with good video.

A few years ago my wife got sick and can no longer work. I have a great job but we lost a full income. I have done Lyft, door dash, donated plasma, sold clothes and extra stuff(garage sale). Looking for a consistent $1000 dollars a month. Great ideas. Thank you.
This is a great video, I learn a lot watching my professional videos, and it has been helpful to me. Building a steady income is quite difficult for newbie’s. Just like Professional Halle Saldana!
Small town I'm from has about 250 people... when I was a kid it was about 850 population. So ya gas stations closing, only grocery store barely hanging on. Bowling alley/Cafe closed, that was a real bummer. Lol but I still like my tiny town. Have to drive 40 miles each way to work everyday but housing is cheap so, fair trade. Lol
Thanks! Hundreds and hundreds and hundreds or hours of playing around. In fairness though, I owned a marketing and graphic design agency for almost a decade and we did a ton of video work. I didn't personally do any of the editing or design but I was a part of the process with our creatives from concept to completion of nearly every project we did. I closed the agency in 2013, so it's been a while but I did have a very good base of general video knowledge to pull from. Thanks for watching...again!
@@upMETHOD That’s amazing. Lol I wish I had hundreds of hours to buckle down and learn to edit properly. Did you watch RUclips videos or buy any courses? Is it best to just start recording anything and start playing around in editing software? I want to start my Channel this year. Preferably within the next month or two.
@@babybedtimelullabies5913 Time is hard to come by, I chose learning to edit over sleep. I would usually start practicing around 10pm (once the kids and wife were in bed) and I would edit until 2 or 3am... I did that for probably 6 months before I ever loaded a video to RUclips. I would record random everyday things from start to finish (my first video was cooking a hamburger) and then pull the footage into the software and see how much I could cut out with it still making sense and then play around with sound effects, music and timing. I watched how to videos on RUclips when I had specific questions but for the most part I learned just by trial and error. The best advice I can give you is... just get started, your videos will get a little better with every upload. The great thing about RUclips is that you are not punished for bad videos so just start pumping them out. You got this!
The problem with the lawncare thing is the over saturation of the market. If this is your choice beware of the bidding because someone is going to beat you on prices. So when you set a price remember that it is hard to ask for more
The best side hustle I’ve ever seen was many years ago. A young guy used to go to strip malls in Virginia Beach and wash the store windows (outside). His prices were insanely cheap. I think he charged back then $2 a window. Came every week. Got $10 for about 10 minutes work. In short order he got into a routine, doing one large strip mall each morning. working 4 mornings a week and I’d estimate he cleared $200 each morning. And spend the rest of his week hanging out at the beach. His invest was a pail, a long handled squeegee and some soap.
We have a young man that washes all the windows in the shopping center of my grocery store. He does a number other centers in town too…you’re right, it’s great business, he does very well. Thanks for watching!
Best seasonal side hustle is putting up peoples Christmas Lights! Easy to learn how to to a great job and each year the jobs move faster (since you’ve done it already) with likely a higher rate of pay.
Excellent idea Noah! My wife and I actually just had a conversation about hiring someone to put lights on our new house this year. Is this a side hustle that you've tried?

I am sorry for asking, but English is only my second language, but is the term "hustle" not a very, very bad term? Like you are ripping someone off?!
@@petermages9482 It's not a bad term in the US. It's used as a compliment for those who are tenacious and keep at something until they succeed.
I started a residential garbage service a couple years ago. I’ve been pretty successful with it but one thing I’ve learned is that nobody is going to do the job as well as I do. One piece of advice I disagree with is finding help to do the labor for you. When I’ve hired help, I end up redoing most of the work they do and when I hire someone to drive my second truck I get phone calls. Keep your hustle within the bounds of what you’re able to either do yourself or at least, what you can put oversight on. Don’t hire someone to run the operation for you because if/when they start slacking, it’s not their name that suffers, it’s yours.
What exactly is the service you provide?
Yeah what is this “garbage service” you provide?
Reselling is a good side hustle. I sell on eBay. I am not killing it, but I am bring in $1000 extra a month. I started with selling thing I already owned and didn't have any use for. Then I started buying things from Flea Markets, Thrift Stores, Estate Sales, and Estate Auction. I sell things in the "Man Cave" niche. Easy things to find. Cheap to buy second hand, And decent resell profit to be made. Down side is space. You need to have enough room to stores some of these items until they sell. I have close to 500 items in my eBay store at this moment. Every Saturday I go out hunting items (Keep logs of milage for tax write offs, and do your person shopping at the same time). Sunday I clean them, take photos and post them on eBay. The rest of the week I work a full time job. I get up in the morning. Pack what sold, and drop them off at the post office while I am on lunch at work. Best part is, that start up to do this was Free. But people thing "Well What about Shipping materials" Places are always getting rid of cardboard boxes. Where I work. We get shipments in all the time. So I get boxes, and packing supplies for free. I told my boss it's like recycling and they don't have to do any to recycle. So if you got a cell phone with a camera, and internet. Just find some stuff that you can sell, and get to it. You can scale it to you needs and abilities as you go.

I started dumpster diving on the way to and from work and it has morphed into a full time career as a scrap metal recycler.
Yes I think that scrap metal recycling might be # 6 side-hustle in & of itself. Garry Tibbo the "TRUTH WARRIOR" & wild weeds expert did scrap metal recycling on the side & made $800. a month & says it's possible to make $100,000 a year if you get serious.
@@AnthonyTromblee I do OK. Best part is I'm my own man, I set my own hours, I can live very cheaply, and there is no end to the stuff. Down side is fluctuating scrap price.
A relative of mine had an urban side hustle for serval years.
He started with a car, a rod across the back seat that could hang suits, and several garment bags.
He went to a bunch of offices and offered a pickup and delivery service of suits to be dry cleaned.
(He ended up owning three dry cleaners before he retired.)
How much money did he launder
Not enough
Good for him! BRAVO! Thanks for sharing...something to think about!
"find trustworthy people" - the key to making all of these profitable. It's the small-business biggest challenge.
Yep!!
House cleaning is a very low entry cost side hustle. I would also recommend that you do NOT purchase equipment like vacuum cleaners for the business. Use the client's vacuum. You could be cleaning a house with a pest infestation and unknowingly spread it to another client.
That is an EXCELLENT bit of advice...thanks Stephen!
If you are cleaning houses with pest infestation, offer them your pest infestation services and make more $$.
Its a good idea, but all carpet cleaners have their own, usually dual motor, vacs.
You can clean anything with a steamer, you can put alcohol in one and kill/clean bed bugs, fleas and most infestations. A steam extractor is even better but way more expensive a good industrial steamer that'll steam a small house of a tank is only like $150
Always carry bonding and insurance, one wrong move can cost you everything

There are a lot of good side hustles if you think outside the box.
Service jobs are always good, like pooper scooper, personal shopper, errand runner for the elderly or disabled...or lazy,
And one that I do. I germinate seeds for planting in gardens. Some people think that these are better than store bought plants so you can charge a bit more per plant. The most expensive thing are grow lights, and even that isn't bad. I'm retired and decided to make some cash out if a hobby! It's fun for me, AND lucrative!

My Dad always said. To make a living, you need to know two things. A skill trade and know how to hustle for a buck. I actually learned 6 skill trades and been hustling for a buck since I was 13 years old. Started out as selling candy door to door. Box of Chocolate Carmel Turtles. Been a great sales man since. I also did house cleaning for 4 years straight. But I also did lawn work, minor house repairs, grocery shopping and even did banking. Today I buy and sell anything; mainly Flea Market stuff and yes garage sales. I also build computer's, design websites and even do repairs on PC's and Laptop's. Love to hustle and will be doing that until I die. My first skill trade was an Masonry(brick, block and stone work). Did that for 10 years and then got into building homes. Foundation, sub-flooring, the house itself, doors, windows, internal wood work and even roofing. Work at a body shop, warehouse clerk, fork truck driver, pick and pack, assembly line, been a supervisor for a factory, and other smaller jobs. Master at many trades and Master at hustling. Love my jobs.
That’s what I’m talkin about… you will always have a way to make money with all of those skills!! I’ll do anything to make a buck, as long as it’s ethical. Like you I have done MANY things over the years, I’ve settled into a handful of passive incomes lately while I run my grocery store as my day job now. Thanks for watching and commenting!
@@upMETHOD It's work and many ask me about how I make money on the side. I tell them and they don't like the sound of it because it causing sweating from the brow is in the equation. I love the work and actually enjoy it. Selling has always been my strong point. To understand how money works. I always bring up the 37 cents challenge. You start out with 37 cents in your pocket and you'll have 7 days to turn that 37 cent into 37 dollars and only can use the 37 cents as your starting point. No access to outside funds. If you can do that, than you'll never will have money problems.
Hard work is the answer for sure. I’ve never heard of the 37 cent challenge. Hmm…maybe a video series! Sounds like fun!
@@upMETHOD 37 cents challenge is similar to the one red paperclip challenge. I believe you can google the one red paperclip challenge. 37 cents challenge was my idea to show how easy to earn money. If you can make a margin from 37 cents and turn that into 37 dollars in 7 days. You'll can have a larger idea to make larger amounts later.
@@upMETHOD I am amazed you have not pointed out the fact that as we grow;
"We are suppose to multiply": IF we are doing anything for money, "that money does not
count after we have made it".
IT IS like standing on a scale, as we are given more weight, the scale reset to zero and
how much we make is computed from the new position. IF WE are not better to offer to
others anything more than what we have in the beginning, then we are wasting our time.
A friend of mine got into sketching his local area in London. He got the idea of sketching the pubs, cafes and small businesses and then offering it to the owner.

Should I give up on Trade?
What should I do?
How may I do better?
What I'm I doing incorrectly?
Google " katefxfloretta " take classes to learn more about trade.
having a mentor is also very important when it comes to Trade, with out that, it can be very frustrating.
you must have these things in mind
1. Have a long term mindset.
2. Be willing to take *risk*.
3. Be careful, if you're not spending to earn back, then stop spending.
4. Never claim to know - Ask questions and it's best you work with an assistant.

@@openyoureyes4799 You could start a youtube about your job. Cleaning is interesting. Make it creative and start filming. Just an idea. You’re on here already, may as well.
Hey “openyoureyes”, Skip is absolutely right…a RUclips channel on house cleaning is a great idea, especially if you’re an artist. There is a learning curve with story telling and video editing, and it takes time to gain traction with viewers but if you put in the effort it could pay VERY well.
People love to see something go from disarray to organized. There are a number of very successful channels in a similar niche that you could watch for inspiration to get started. Look at channels for cleaning, car detailing or even restoration of old or broken items. The common theme is taking something that is run down or broken and making it new again.
People also like sound… look at channels that feature ASMR for inspiration also. You could do house cleaning but also throw in ASMR tactics with scrubbing or water running and dripping. Those types of videos are addictive for some viewers.
Thanks for the idea Skip! And thanks to both of you for watching.

I used to do yard maintenance with my dad when I was younger we actually made alot of money it was one of our better father/son hustles I remember people seeing me mow their lawns then giving me 20 dollar tips just because they see a young man trying to be successful 🙏 I appreciate everything god has done for me but unfortunately i need to keep making it happen 😅
All of these things are very doable. But each requires a level of knowledge. You mentioned that in the house cleaning. Lawn care is similar, just because you mow, trim and prune at your home does not mean you know how otheres want it done. And power washing is definitely one to educated before you start. A pressure washer can destroy a fence, siding and yes even concrete when use the wrong way. Power washing is my side hustle and I carry large insurance just to keep my self and customers safe and happy. Keep hustling! Good video!
Important stuff to consider before starting!
😂 Had to laugh when you said 19k is a small town! We live in a town of about 14k in the Midwest and it’s not really a small town in our state! But all the things you mentioned are really doable in even small towns of a couple thousand!
Tried cleaning houses but found that some people were just beyond picky if you try this type of work it's good money but for me wasn't worth the drama from the homeowners if you try this work B cautious because some people no matter how much you clean it's never good enough some people are just born angry and entitled LOL
Interested in doing a side hustle like this but getting into sounds daunting, what did you do to get your first couple of jobs?
Yes I used to dread the perfect homes… how do you improve on perfect? 😬
Or their like who are you what are you doing why are you in my house 🏠 stranger danger
Fire the customer, easy!
I've cleaned on the side for years. My clients have always been happy w my work. Cleaning requires the ability to see everything that needs to be cleaned without being told what to clean.
Just thought I would leave a comment. I honestly don’t know how your not a bigger channel yet, the editing is crisp, the video idea is interesting and the presentation is engaging (good use of b-roll). Keep it up dude, I’m subscribed now.
Was wondering the same too
I'm from a town in Cali of 14,377, one side hustle I found was rather interesting and extremely overlooked; California has a thing called The Cottage Law that allows certain food items to be made in a personal/home kitchen instead of renting a commercial kitchen. You don't need a business license but you do need a retailers lic which can be obtained for free. The catch is that you cannot exceed a certain reported income at which point you will need to get a business lic. I have been making and selling my own hot sauce, seasoned salts and flavored vinegar for several years now. Best of luck Yall!!
We have the same type rules here in Louisiana. We have a good number of local folks that take advantage of it and sell at our farmers market. Thanks for the comment and for watching Tod! -Brian
@@upMETHOD you're in louisiana too? Nice!
Nice work!
He is correct. I actually started a cleaning business after watching something on RUclips. Now I have about five or six clients but the problem is getting good employees
Here's the problem at least in Miami. Pricing, no one wants to pay so you have to price within their budget. Now if you have employees and it's a big place profit margins ⬇️ but if you have alot if accounts than ⬆️
Why do they have to work when sleepy Joe is letting them have welfa shecks and food stamp caads....
This!!! I started a cleaning business the end of last year but that is my only problem! Im the only employee and my mom helps on Sundays but it is so hard to find good people. The money is rolling in though
My wife did a cleaning business for a year in 2018 or 19. Here in WA, there are licensing, business fees, LLC, advertising, etc. Once all that was taken out, she only cleared about $15 an hour that year. If she had done it the second year, since some of those fees weren't recurring, she may have cleared $20. I forget exactly what she was charging but I think it was like $35 an hour w/ 2 hour minimum. Couldn't charge more due to competitors. She wasn't interested in scaling because if one bad employee steals something from a property, or even if they don't, but you have someone old and suspicious (like my dad who misplaces things then claims they got stolen) & they post something to social media, the business is ruined. Also, it's a physically demanding job & she could only do about 5 or 6 hours each day. She was 44 and slender but still had knee and back pain from it. And the hand pain was so bad that's ultimately why she stopped. The other problem w/ not scaling is, obviously only being able to be in one place at time. It's compounded w/ residential cleaning because so many customers want it done on Thurs or Friday so they can enjoy a clean house all weekend.
Get into new construction Cleaning. Im in year 5 and never walk away from a job making less than 100 dollars per labor hour any more. I keep it small with me and a couple people I 1099. Overhead is minimal. Add windows and you can really start making money.
I do 6 digit revenue in my 5th year and never clean homes people live in anymore. Model homes are furnished so im in and out every other week for about 100 dollars each. I do about 10 model homes every other week. Basically its 4 days of work per month for 2k dollars. Not bad money.
I'm so glad I found this flipside of YT money making. I was getting so sick of all the same dudes yelling at me about how I can make five-gazillion dollars overnight for doing this or that. Hype doesn't hype me up, it sketches me out. You're much calmer and more relatable.
GREAT suggestions for side hustles/full time gigs...Being a general contractor, I utilize those "junk removal" people a lot...They're making it harder on them now, many of the dump sites require licensing to dump now...But, You can make a couple grand a day with the right guys and equipment... And the lawn/yard maintenance is a GOLD MINE...I know a guy that started with a lawnmower, His brothers and friends would break his stones...Now, they work for him...He hires Labor Ready guys during the season ( 50 sometimes)... BIG MONEY...But, finding good workers is BRUTAL now...At least in my area...
Lots of great ideas. Enjoyed the video.
I noticed you mentioned a lot of the positive side, but I think to be transparent usually a business owner invests more time not less (Book keeping, Ads, Estimates, General labour, After hour fixes, etc) , takes on more financial risk (Customers who don't pay, and also paying employees) , and more headaches if you have unhappy customers (Run backs, touch ups, etc). People need to know customer care, building trust, and quality of work are probably the most important things if you want to get more business. :)
These tips are all what I expected you to say and they are all great ideas! Service-based businesses for evergreen needs like cleaning and maintenance are almost always in demand and it's easy to differentiate when you do good work.
Great video! I own a handyman business and have rentals, and despite being busy, I still have been tempted to venture into some of these other side hustles. Like others have said, finding reliable employees is the most important thing to make it work.
I know a guy who has PLENTY of money but he's just one of those guys. He can't have enough fingers in enough pies to ever be satisfied so he works from sun-up to sun-down seemingly 7 days a week, on all sorts of wacky projects that he got himself in to lol.
Side hustles is what I been doing for a long time. Selling wood is mine main hustle for the winter. And power washing vehicles and semis and many others I do year round
Yeah, I laughed, too. My small town is 2,800 ppl. The city near me is 50k. There is still money to be made, just not this scale.
There is a big difference between a "side hustle", and starting a company with employees. There are lots of expenses that come with employees. Worker's compensation insurance, state mandated and county mandated benefits such as sick time and insurance, not to mention employee tax withholding and bookkeeping. Make it sound like the "business" end isn't a full time job in itself. Lol
That is true if you hire employees... that's why in the video I suggest initially paying "employees" as 1099 contract laborers.
@upMETHOD depending on the state you operate within, 1099 may not apply. If a person gets more than 60% of their income from one source... they are an employee. If a person does not get to choose there own start and stop times for work, then they are an employee. If a person makes an error and they are not liable for it, they are the employee of the liable party. If a person attempts to claim that person is a 1099 subcontractor, but then that person is placed under the restrictions of an employee, then labor fraud has occurred. Careful what you suggest to folks. Anyone that starts a business should do their homework.
@@toddgardner2826 The video is a short overview of types of side hustle ideas, it was never intended to cover every detail of your legal and tax obligations. I'm certainly not a legal or tax professional so I would never make that type of video... I have an attorney and CPA to help me when needed and I would always suggest that others have the same. You make a valid point, I suppose I should add a disclaimer to future videos advising viewer to consult legal and tax professionals when needed (I would hope that is a given, but to protect myself I should probably add it). Thanks! -Brian
I know a guy who lives in a small town and has a great little side hustle. He sells those little healing crystals that are all the rage. It must work because people keep coming back for them at all hours day or night. Although I think he’s having a hard time finding a supplier because he has to sell them in these little baggies in small amounts
Yeah he keeps texting me to bring more cold medicine and batteries. Guys so busy he can’t even make it to the store. Always looks like he’s been up for days working so hard.
😂
I have at least one friend (Craig) who tried these magic crystals. He ended up deading himself after his girlfriend moved in with the crystal purveyor (who lived downstairs). Bets on what everyone is up to now? Hint: Well we know what Craig isn't doing... Breathing. He was 43.
@@imnitguy he must not have read the directions right
@@matthaft2048or lost one screw and improvised with rubber band…
Young people like myself find interacting with customers a hassle as little to 0 experience at all its definitely a delayed start to starting something, alls I can say is start small even with friends and family as you may already know them and that makes it a hole lot easier
Don't give up no matter the struggle shoutout 2 anyone trying, see yalls out there.
Our average population is 1,000 people. Yes you read that right lol 😆 it always cracks me up when people say they live in small towns. We live in an avid farming town. My husband and I are both 4th generation farmers. I work at a ranch part time that uses horses for therapy. My husband mechanics on the side. We help people build fence. Work cattle. I’m considering waitressing part time again. Plus we take care of our three kids without daycare.
329 people in my town. Haven't figured out a side hustle yet though
I grew up in a town of 3,000 - so clearly "the big smoke" by your metric. 19,000 is the 'huge smoke' to me.
Just subscribed, I actually done all those side hustle before and found that one tended to lead to another job. Yard work then the customer asked if could clean the driveway and outside house by water blasting it, that led to painting the house, which led to clearing and removing things from inside the house and then detailing the vehicle. I usually do get calls for things that I don't even do but am willing. For example 3 days ago did lawn maintenance for this older lady who now just asked if I would be interested in helping move large heavy things around like furniture. Basically be the muscle . Might not sound that great but low cost just need muscle to move heavy things around.
Water blasting? You sound dumb......don't you mean pressure washing?
First time I have seen this channel, seems interesting. I wonder if they have something for disabled people trying to start out. These tips are helpful, if you are physically fit.
Yessssss finally, a video that makes sense!!!! Thank you Brian! I’m Rae, 27 years old from a small town of St. Louis, MO😫🙌🏽
I saw you talking. I want to see you working. Do a separate video of you working in each job. And post what you made for that job and its cost.
I strongly agree with you mate.
Investment is the key to sustaining our financial longevity, and not just any investment but an investment
with guaranteed return.
To earn more you are required to have a multiple diversified stream of income, which is why investment is an avenue of making more money once it's profitable.
Crypto currency is one strong means people are raising their financialstatus now, so when you think investment I recommend you make it an option
l also can be a profitable in trading all it will take is determation and mentoring even though you lose money you keep on trying
At first I doubted Mrs Stacy griffin kartner, but after proving me wrong with a mind blowing profit I felt sorry for myself
More firms are already using bitcoin as a wealth reserved asset.
Finally a good side hustle video that is hands on rather than all online, thank you for this.
I started shoe cleaning and restoring recently, and my own RUclips channel with videos showing how to do it. I'm quite busy. Upgrading shoes, trading and selling used shoes after making them look good again.
That’s really cool! Money is everywhere, you just have to find you niche.
Our small town that is most local is 12,000 or so. We have a custom back yard storage building business. We also do horse barns. 2 years ago we put in 100 self storage units and that is the ticket. My goal is 400 @ 55 per unit. You do the math. We also run a small excavation and landscaping company. My side hustle is growing. If you don't take a chance in life you will always be holding yourself back. Hustle on.
One has to hit the like button for this guy choosing a frozen food aisle as a backdrop.
lol... just trying to keep it interesting. Thanks!
Lol
I was wondering why he did that. Lol.
I’m retired and live in a small town, less than 2000 people for sure. I got bored and needed something to do so I started mowing lawns and can attest that this can absolutely be a very lucrative hustle. I want to say one thing though…..I live in a rural area. In areas like this people will usually have larger yards. I decided to post my ad for lawns in the city, it’s about a half hour drive but worth it because the lawns are so much smaller. I can mow 2 or 3 lawns per hour at $50 each in comparison to at least an hour for one lawn where I live.
I do this part time, usually no more than 5 hours a day which includes my travel time between houses, and makes between $1000-$1200 per week. I only use a push mower but if I had better equipment and was more motivated that figure would easily double. As it stands my way of getting me out of the house and keeping busy earns me at least $1000 per week.
Someone with a lawn mower and a vehicle to transport it can do very well for them self.
Zero chance you are doing a lawn every 20 minutes. Youre certainly not edging and removing grass you're just leaving shit all over the place. Nice try though.
@@bigdaddy4555 I pick and choose. I don’t do large lawns, I don’t do lawns with big hills, I don’t rake. I have customers on a schedule so the grass never gets very long. When I mow the clippings are part of the lawn, you can’t even notice them. A quick pass with the mower and a bit of trimming and I’m gone.
I’m retired and was just looking for a way to keep busy. I’m not looking to work hard…..no big lawns, no lawns that haven’t been cut in a while, no big hills, etc.
$50 per mow, the lawn looks good and customers are very happy. Almost all have been with me since I started 5 years ago. Yes I have lawns I’m there and gone in about 20 minutes.
My mower guy finishes my entire front yard in eight (8) minutes! I have timed him. It would easily take me an hour to do it with my walk behind, powered Honda. It’s well worth the $50 he charges, believe me. He has a mower that he does not sit on, but stands. Expensive equipment, yes. But, think about how many jobs he can mow in a day and how he saves his time. I dislike hearing mowers, so his speedy work is welcome. I focus on the weeding and gardening, something I enjoy. My mower guy also shovels my sidewalk and plows my driveway in the winter. He is always busy.
@@wassomebody2386 With a proper mower, even a proper push mower, you can zip through lawns. I’m amazed at how much money there is to be made with just a basic lawn mow.
For pressure washing- realistically around 1K to start you need hoses gas a good gas pressure washer that will last and surface cleaner.
I did one where I pulled weeds. If I were to do it again, I wouldn't pull weeds, because I ruined my shoulder. I'm too old for that. BUT, I could still be the Yard Lady if I marketed to people who have already fixed a house, and have put it up for sale. I could go pick up litter, do the mowing, maybe prune the bushes and trees, and maybe kept a plant pot for them. "Keep your yard looking great when you vacate."
My side hustle is changing light bulbs, cleaning ceiling fans, changing air filters and cleaning air returns. $50 an hour, 1 hour minimum for the time out, $35-40 if you sign a monthly contract. I turn down work in my small town. My start up cost a ladder and a shop vac which I already had.
Interesting.!!!!
I' considered getting into something similar.once appn a time.
If you don't mind my asking-
How do you clean the returns without more specialized equipment?
@@jupitercyclops6521 I hust do the vent covers bot the ducts. Vaccuum them and then wipe down with soap and water.
Over 30 years later, I remember a fellow who stopped at the store where I had the late shift and who offered to detail my truck. This guy was ready to work and had all the equipment ready. He even used a toothbrush on the rain gutter. He did such a good job that I would have paid double if I'd had the cash on me. Over three decades later, I remember the quality of the work and the hustle of the man (who should have had a business card because I would have hunted him down for repeat work). So auto detailing for a hard worker can be a great side hustle.
It’s a good business for sure
Summary: Wash Cars, Pick up trash, Pressure Wash, Cut Grass, Clean Houses, Work Hard, Sell Lemonade.
Just a tip. If you want to try a side hustle, you might search for used equipment you made need. I bought a good pressure washer for about 1/3 the cost of a new one. Used mowers are easily available, and the same is true for vacuums along with carpet cleaners. Learn how to repair the equipment to keep yourself in business. Heck, I've repaired various equipment for other people as a side hustle.
Awesome insight Gary... Thanks! -Brian
Cricket business (banners, personalizing goods, t-shirts), backyard nursery, 3-D printing (and selling files you created online), plasma cutting signs, home staging business + estate clean out, carpet cleaning... look for the need in your community and try to meet it.
Love the way you got all them products in every shot! A side hustle?
lol… na, that’s my “main hustle”. I own a natural foods grocery and supplement store and that just happens to be the most convenient place for me to shoot my videos.
All my kids did these and variations on these.......while in high school. One started at 12. Always had pocket money and more, and bought their own cars.
Successful adults also.
Neighbor across from street does detailing. Winter doesn't slow him down at all. He said there is more demand because people want the salt off their vehicles.This morning he was detailing a truck when it was 17F out. He did install a heater in his garage but the door stays open, and he's outside as much as he's in.
I love it…that’s dedication!
@@upMETHOD he does mostly the premium work on luxury cars. He probably pulls in >$1k some days.
@@hughbrackett343 That's incredible, if you live in an area where there are a lot of luxury cars that would be a really good niche to get into. I imagine a lot of people are scared to work on really expensive cars, so if you built a reputation for being "the guy" (or gal) that does them and does them well I bet you could make a fortune. Thanks for the comment!
I do more jobs in the winter.. a nice warms day someone will grab the hose and wash there car .. winter they will not . I’m mobile and also work at my shop on my property . I love the business.
Idk, i lived in michigan for 32 years, and car detailing never stopped by the season. Some people do it more in the winter because of the salt and snow
Bro, great video. Thanks for the reminders of all the great ways to make money!!! I’ve been self employed for a little over 5 years and it never ceases to amaze me the things I overlook. Diversifying your income streams is the single best way to grow wealth.
Great video and info, thanks Brian. So really, if you are out of work/income, it comes down to circumstances or just plain bone idle.
It's very interesting to see this video from a German perspective. It appears in the USA people are more willing to spend money for services. In Germany profit on all of these activities are extremly low. Especially in small towns people don't hire other people to do stuff for them.
In the US it is rare to learn life skills and common trades through the "intended" schooling system. If you don't learn it from your family or a close friend, you have to pay for those services later. That's probably 80% of the population that either doesn't know anything, or are too busy that they have to purchase from someone else even if they have the skills.
it is the same as in Indonesia. People will do almost anything by themselves just to save money
This is one of the reasons why America is so great. It's the land of opportunity for all. And most of us have compassion for our fellow people who want and need to earn.
Interesting…
If you don't find a means of multiplying your money, you will wake up one day to realise that the money you thought you had, has exhausted. Investment is a ladder to climb the financial wall.
I agree with you mate. Investment is also a bridge to creating financial longevity. And not just any investment but an investment with lots of return because there are investment that has less or no returns.
Most failures and loss on Investment usually happens when you invest without proper guide, assistance and clear analysis of the profit and risk percentage of the Investment.
So how do you get your proper guide and the analysis you mentioned? Because I have incurred huge losses while investing by myself
it's best to have an investment *manager* who has well acquainted knowledge about Investment, to help you earn from your Investment on your behalf while you oversee the Investment growth, having hundred percent access to your portfolio.
Speaking of investment *manager* , any recommendation? . I will also want to know if while he/she handles my Investment, is my investment still accessible by me to monitor and authorize any action on the Investment portfolio?
Wow you ACTUALLY gave advice lol that's so crazy in this day and age. Usually people clickbait me with titles like that, thank you for not doing that!
I gottchu djjazzyjeff! Thanks for watching!
My husband is almost 73 and has been retired for 10 years. He is busier now than when he was working. He does home and landscape upkeep. Everything but mowing! He does weeding, raking, gutter clean out, mulch, etc. Then he also builds gravel driveways with his small tractor. Then he digs all the new home foundations for a local builder. He uses the builders big backhoe. He seems to never catch up with the calls for his services but he lives and loves to work! Guess it's keeping him in great health. Plus he's got money in his pocket at all times.
I also work occasionally for a local florist so I have extra cash also.
@@katrinawylie8336 nobody thought you were broke
Mosey, I'm sorry I don't understand your comment. I guess I must have misunderstood the point of the video. I guess I thought it was to give people ideas of how to supplement their income and I thought that's what I was doing. I apologize if I didn't understand the assignment.
@@katrinawylie8336 it was a joke ma'am. Just a joke. My bad
It just seems anytime I venture to comment on anything, someone tries to slap my hand or make fun of me.
This video is great for kids and people with no experience. These ideas can get people thiniiing in the right direction. However, as someone who owns a business I can tell you it is not as easy as this video makes it seem. Plus finding anyone to pressure wash or detail cars for you is way over simplified, a lot of people would rather just start their own side business and cut out the middle man.
Shark scrapper does the junk removal and appears to make good money doing it. I like these side hustles. People are willing to pay for just about anything that adds value and saves them time. Thanks for sharing.
So right, thanks for watching!
I did yard maintenance and junk haul! it led to pretty good money I plan to move back into the business soon 👍🏼
Personal chef for the week I use to make seven meal each week and deliver them to a clients fridg up north later when he worked from home I did lunches and dinners
Started my Landscaping company as soon as the Pandemic hit. Even tho I only do it on the side, it is very good money. If you're not afraid of hard work and the sun lol, give it a shot. You'll be impressed at the money you can make
Really good video, subscribed your editing is really good I can see you making it in life one day! Glad to be one of the first few people
I really appreciate it! Learning how to edit over the last year has been VERY time consuming but also very fun, thank you for recognizing my efforts. Definitely trying to “make it” one day... I’ve got lofty goals for myself.
Glad to have you on this ride with me, thanks for jumping on early.
Address decals / NUMBERS on the sidewalk check local older neighborhoods numbers get worn off / talk up the safety issue for police fire find your home location if the numbers are worn off Some people like maybe decals flags etc added don’t think cost to much in supplies we owned a florist back in the day and found this is needed we thought of adding this service to our deliveries 🚚. Good luck $
3 others I can think of... 1) Handyman - No license needed. If you can do home repairs, hang up blinds in windows, whatever, some old lady will pay you for it. 2) Car Mechanic - If you can fix cars, you'll always have some money in your pocket. 3) Hair dresser, barber, hair braiding - Especially when school starts. Parents need this service for their children. Especially, if they don't have a lot of money to go to a salon.
Refinishing furniture or growing flowers to make in to bouquets maybe possible for good side hustles
Worked about -4 days in the bookstore at the local mall, as my first job. Had enough of that, then started doing car detailing & window washing. This was back in the eary 80's in high school, and could bring in 500-600 a week in my spare time.
This was full of completely original ideas - or maybe I just watch too many channels w/ women who typical don’t suggest auto detailing as a side hustle - not to use gender norms - just explaining that’s probably why these are all fresh to me & I think they are excellent!! New sub!
Poker poker poker. By far the best gig I’ve ever had in my life. I started out playing on weekends at my local casino, now it’s turned into a full time job. Definitely flexible since I work whenever I want. I currently make 15,000 to 25, 000 a month playing 2-5 at my local casino. Get a lot of tourists and recreational players who don’t know what they’re doing especially on Friday and Saturday nights. They’re practically giving away money especially when they’re drunk and rich and are just trying to have a good time. Can easily pick up 2000-5000 on a Friday or Saturday night. Haven’t lost money on a weekend in about 8 months where I am. Haven’t had a real job in years, the freedom is amazing, plus I don’t answer to anyone. Love what I do, and you have dealers, servers, and massage therapists around that serve you, for tips of course. I feel like a boss without any of the stress lol.

Can you make a video on who to talk to? Like how do you approach a business and propose your small business (ex go to a bank and offer your window cleaning service or cleaning services)
Since everyone in every town is complaining about something, you can always make protest signs and sell them as a side hustle.
You should have a lot more subscribers!
Thanks! Hopefully RUclips agrees one day and sends more people over. Until then I'll just keep throwing out videos for whoever shows up to watch.
I live in town of 1200 and I do lawn care and general home repairs we stay decently busy
These are great videos and the editing is awesome. Subscribed!
Incredibly kind words, thank you so much! See you in the comments.
Okay …did you mention power washing store fronts and window cleaning? My brother in law does this for a living and he can’t keep up with the sheer amount of work…they live in tampa where there an ocean breeze and salt air sticking to everything.
Housecleaning pays crazy well have dedicated customers as well as commercial accounts, but is hard work and pricing is complicated. Hauling is good money, you can drop off cards with yard sales that have large items for them to give people to haul those large items home on weekends (just make sure to get mileage and figure pricing according to refill cost verses what you paid for filling up prior to), as well as getting in touch with storage units that need units cleaned out when their customers abandon their storage items (many times they will give you items you can then flip for extra cash) or listing with a local group or website. Power Washing is also a great one (think car wash also offer detailing and vinyl siding, concrete washing, etc), I also do outside windows (have a 30 foot extendable pole for that as part of cleaning services (think up-sell to existing customers and business when building maintenance just cannot get to in a timely fashion). I also raise plants from my own via cuttings and seeds, and help people establish small garden with advise regarding food storage and plant needs. Meal planning and weekly cooking is one you didn't mention, babysitting and pet-sitting, and house-sitting (when people go away on Vacation) Security checks for empty housing (pick up mail, check doors and windows, turning off or on lights) are also great. And my personal favorite is photography, don't just think wedding pictures. You can do car photography, family images, commercial shooting, stock shots, and selling your best shots at local craft fairs. I started out with one side hustle and took a percentage of every payment to work towards extending my work via equipment and once you get a business license all future investments in equipment can be used as a tax break. Now I make more doing side hustles than I ever did working for someone else, control my hours and availability and can take off to travel when I choose (the busier you are the more in demand you are). My clients may start out as one area and extend into others and I am constantly signing on new clients and subcontracting out for passive income (choose your employees carefully and vet them well). And finally caregiving, cost you 50 dollars a year for first aid and CPR certification via American Heart and membership to a listing site but you can pick and choose your clients and pays better than most unskilled labor jobs (Is what led me down this rabbit hole of potential earning jobs). And finally Airbnb, invest in land and rent out your units, can be as simple as a primitive campsite or as complicated as a home you choose which you are willing to maintain.
You could make paper bead jewelry you could get supplies for under 20.00 dollars.

This is a great video, I learn a lot watching my professional videos, and it has been helpful to me. Building a steady income is quite difficult for newbie’s. Just like Professional Halle Saldana!

Unlike a lot of fluffy trash on RUclips, this was a really good video. Well presented and good content. The man knows what he's talking about.
Small town I'm from has about 250 people... when I was a kid it was about 850 population. So ya gas stations closing, only grocery store barely hanging on. Bowling alley/Cafe closed, that was a real bummer. Lol but I still like my tiny town. Have to drive 40 miles each way to work everyday but housing is cheap so, fair trade. Lol
Hey again great video. Question of the Day: How long did it take you to learn how to edit? Your editing skills are really good for a new RUclipsr.
Thanks! Hundreds and hundreds and hundreds or hours of playing around. In fairness though, I owned a marketing and graphic design agency for almost a decade and we did a ton of video work. I didn't personally do any of the editing or design but I was a part of the process with our creatives from concept to completion of nearly every project we did. I closed the agency in 2013, so it's been a while but I did have a very good base of general video knowledge to pull from. Thanks for watching...again!
@@upMETHOD That’s amazing. Lol I wish I had hundreds of hours to buckle down and learn to edit properly. Did you watch RUclips videos or buy any courses? Is it best to just start recording anything and start playing around in editing software? I want to start my Channel this year. Preferably within the next month or two.
@@babybedtimelullabies5913 Time is hard to come by, I chose learning to edit over sleep. I would usually start practicing around 10pm (once the kids and wife were in bed) and I would edit until 2 or 3am... I did that for probably 6 months before I ever loaded a video to RUclips. I would record random everyday things from start to finish (my first video was cooking a hamburger) and then pull the footage into the software and see how much I could cut out with it still making sense and then play around with sound effects, music and timing.
I watched how to videos on RUclips when I had specific questions but for the most part I learned just by trial and error. The best advice I can give you is... just get started, your videos will get a little better with every upload. The great thing about RUclips is that you are not punished for bad videos so just start pumping them out. You got this!
@@upMETHOD Thanks so much for this info. One day I'll come back to this channel saying your advice is what got me started!
I hope so, maybe we’ll both have over a million subs by then!
Great video my man!! Thank you for ideas that will definitely get me going in the right direction. Weather is not an issue in Las Vegas...
The problem with the lawncare thing is the over saturation of the market. If this is your choice beware of the bidding because someone is going to beat you on prices. So when you set a price remember that it is hard to ask for more
In the old days 12 year old kids went around mowing grass and picking weeds… now grown ass men are doing it and over charging.
Best side hustle.... very detailed and on point... u know exactly what a side hustle is....
The best side hustle I’ve ever seen was many years ago. A young guy used to go to strip malls in Virginia Beach and wash the store windows (outside). His prices were insanely cheap. I think he charged back then $2 a window. Came every week. Got $10 for about 10 minutes work. In short order he got into a routine, doing one large strip mall each morning. working 4 mornings a week and I’d estimate he cleared $200 each morning. And spend the rest of his week hanging out at the beach. His invest was a pail, a long handled squeegee and some soap.
We have a young man that washes all the windows in the shopping center of my grocery store. He does a number other centers in town too…you’re right, it’s great business, he does very well. Thanks for watching!
He said small town and I was thinking 5000 or less people, but 19000. The town I grew up in must be considered a village with 450 people
Best seasonal side hustle is putting up peoples Christmas Lights! Easy to learn how to to a great job and each year the jobs move faster (since you’ve done it already) with likely a higher rate of pay.
Excellent idea Noah! My wife and I actually just had a conversation about hiring someone to put lights on our new house this year. Is this a side hustle that you've tried?
for bonus points get contracts with local HOAs to do the neighborhood lights. Big money if you work with upscale neighborhoods.
