Today I will highlight the biggest issue for people today EXTRA CASH per month.
Extra cash even an extra thousand a month would be a life saver for a lot of people.
And for some extra cash would be life changing. So I will delve into what I consider the best and fastest way to make extra cash per month with the least amount of up front money possible.
I will start with the least expensive to the most. Please comment below if you have any questions or you want me to write about anything specific.
CASH FLOW 1. TEASPRING.COMThis is an awesome way to make extra cash with zero investment. When I say that, I mean literally just some time and some designingmaking up funny or catchy sayings and putting them on t-shirts for people to buy.
All you have to do is scout Facebook for some funny or catchy trending sayings and put them on a shirt and let Teaspring do the rest.
Now obviously if you do some leg work on Facebook & Pinterest afterwards posting your shirt design both easy free ways to get your shirt out there. It will dramatically help but it will work over time by itself but i would suggest sharing to social media and also bouncing designs off of friends and family to see if they like it.
In general, this is just a super easy and free way to make money online that doesn't cost you anything all.
You can do is make profit just know that you will have to do some work and most likely have to put out a few designs before you have one that starts selling. The more you put out the more chance you will have to make money.
CASH FLOW 2. EBAY.COM I know this an oldie but is still a goody. I would say even better today with the Amazon craze and the under use of this site. Nowadays you can buy things off your local craigslist used and post it on eBay to a larger market and make money easily.
Basic household items & Apple products often can be negotiated in person knowing what they are worth already on eBay and then just getting it for less in person. and then flipping it best of all this is completely free to do and all fees will be take out of your profits from the eBay sale. You don't have any money out of pocket at all except for the purchase of the item.
Unless you are selling it from your own stock and remember on that end that there is a lot of things you may consider worthless that you have laying around your house, but they sell on eBay everyday. So get to selling and make some side cash today.
CASH FLOW 3. SHOPIFY Now this one is not free but fairly cheap, you can start the store for about $50 dollars. Including your own domain name and store monthly fee which at its cheapest is $29 a month.
For that small investment you can have a professional up and running full eCommerce store in less than an hour. This is an amazing leap forward due to the ease of setup and quick deployment you can sell anything on this store from drop shipped products from china to your own household items and custom crafts.
This site is the basis for all the adds you see on Facebook selling knickknacks and items from china (I will have a full blog on starting a shopify store soon. That make 6 figures a month some stores selling in the millions but for us who are just making extra cash this store can possibly replace your normal monthly income pretty quickly if promoted correctly there are many YouTube videos on selling on shopify but i will go into the subject more in depth in a future Blog stay tuned.
CASH FLOW 4. FACEBOOK FAN PAGE I would have put this in the almost free or free section above but i wanted to be honest about it. You can do this strategy for free but to be fair will be very hard unless you spend some money promoting the page but can be done for free if you are willing to wait and willing to build slowly but you can use free traffic from Pinterest to drive traffic to your Facebook page.
It is much faster if you promote the page through Facebook, and also run some add campaigns driving traffic to your page. One you create your fan page make sure you create it in a niche you have some knowledge in or passion for because you will have to create content for the page and i would suggest doing this no less than weekly but for best results and engagement i would do it daily. That's why i would say doing it in a niche you actually enjoy because you will have to post quite often to get traction with followers.
Once you have a following you can promote products and services through many affiliate marketing programs so you can be paid from those programs just for suggesting them to your following also you can promote products through amazon and even your own items that you create or to sites that pay you to promote there services as a partner and you can then pick up brand deals just like youtuber's or Instagram influencer's and easily make another couple thousand a month with advertising and product promotions.
CASH FLOW 5. DROP SERVICING Now this one is to me the easiest one of all to start out with as a side hustle because there are so many cheap done for you services out there like FIVERR or upwork that you can pretty much get anything done for cheap and resell it for a lot more even if your just doing word of mouth advertising to start.
For instance say your at a party or gathering and your talking to someone who needs a website done you can say with confidence and without lying that you offer that service you say to that person that service cost $250 dollars you strike up an agreement and off to FIVERR you go were routinely you can find web design for hire for as little as $20 dollars for a basic wix website and less than $100 for a full web build on GODADDY.
So this is great option to make some fast money you can pretty much find anything done-for-you on fiver or upwork.
All you have to do is find a need from someone around you and fill it on FIVERR with a mark up on your end and you keep the middle.
This is one of my favorite things to do to make quick money and help people around you at the same time.
CASH FLOW 6. INSTAGRAM SHOUTOUTS This one will require you to build an Instagram page and get some followers but this is a relatively easy process especially with the new software that is available that will build your page while you sleep like SOCIALCAPTAINwhich for a small weekly/monthly fee you can build your following fast and sell SHOUTOUTSon your page to people looking to promote products of there own.
It is not uncommon even for a small page to get $15-$50 dollars per SHOUTOUT which can add up quickly, and when you get allot bigger there are pages that demand no less than $8000 per SHOUTOUT.
Not that its likely for a normal person but the likes of Kim K get 20 to 50 thousand per SHOUTOUTand it was reported that she made in the 4 to 8 million range for her InstagramSHOUTOUTS this year so there is big money to be made if you get up there in the big boyrange. But for us non gods of the Instagramworld we can easily make some supplemental income with some very easy setup of software and some time after work monitoring it. You never know if you do it right it just may replace you JOB and you will be able to call in to work WELL. "well boss I'm not coming back" and i think that's what we are all working towards.
CASH FLOW 7. AMAZON FBA I would be doing you a disservice if i didn't include amazon drop shipping but i will say it is no longer a walk in the park to do this it will require some knowledge acquisition to be successful with this venture it is no longer a simple process of finding a cheap Chinese product, ship it to amazon, and you win lol this no longer works.
You will have to do some creative stuff to get ahead in this space i will link some courses that seam to have the best up-to-date info on amazon strategies that seams to work the best today. But i will blog about this in detail soon. I will probably not build my own step by step course to walk you through it follow the link if you would like a more step by step hand held walk through course.
CASH FLOW 8. YOUTUBE This is one that does take work and you have to have a clear message/niche to promote but can be a very powerful tool to make money.
You can do just about anything on this platform the key to this it to pick a niche and just start make your first video period.
You will learn as you go don't worry about knowing anything just pick up your phone and start recording there are you-tubers who make 30,000 a month just in add revenue and still record on their Iphone.
Don'tworry about equipment don't worry about knowledge just start.
The most important thing is having a clear niche so you can build your following. You want to be very specific in your niche, but i cant stress enough you just have to start.
If you look at some of the biggest youtube stars in the world their first videos sucked big time but it doesn't matter you just start and get better with time.
Its how everyone starts with the first video, and they are for the most part horrible, so just start i know i keep saying it but every youtuber that makes it big always says they just wished they would have started sooner.
Because they were trying to be perfect out of the gate they waited along time and blew months and in some cases years waiting instead of just starting...
That was their biggest regret!Because they could have been way past where they are now if they would have just taken the leap.
So take the leap, and this will take time but you can use Youtube to build and promote anything on the planet from products, services, affiliate products, or even your own brick and mortar business.
making money off of affiliate links from you tube is a huge business and will make you money once you have a following who trusts and LIKES your content.
CASH FLOW 9. AMAZON MERCH This is basically the same as TEASPRING but its with amazon and has its own unique perks and down falls.
The perks are that its amazon and there is 2 billion amazon users with credit cards on file ready to spend money but like amazon FBA you will have stiff competition in the space but if you have a winning design and you are able to promote it properly and most likely spend some money on some adds you will start making money.
This is the reason i didn't put this in the free category because it will be a good idea to spend some money on FIVERR to have a designer make you some shirt designs that are niche specific like patriot shirts or activist shirt or yoga shirts/pants.
Things that demand clicks and emotional connection that people would want to buy and wear you can also go funny which are good but this will take some research and trial and error.
There are plenty of people making money on amazon with just text based t-shirts with funny sayings that make a lot of money and take no design skills.
Like anything else it is better to start making merch and get better over time remember it doesn't cost you anything to throw mudd at the wall in this space to see what works but paying for designing off FIVERR will most likely get you there faster... but to each his own.
Its going to depend on your budget and risk tolerance for spending money on PPC campains.
CASH FLOW 10. SOCIAL MEDIA MARKETING This is a very profitable niche that you can use similar to drop services but more niche specific this is something that you want to pick a specific business that you want to serve and crush it.
Like helping local realtors to get more real estate clients or electricians get more local clients or drive traffic directly to affiliate links but the most lucrative way to make money in this market is to super refine your marketing to serve high ticket niches that very few people are marketing to.
Become an expert in marketing to that niche and charging high ticket businesses to push traffic to them like plastic surgery or veneers for dentistry where a single sale could mean 20k for the business so paying you 2k a month is nothing for the potential sales you drive.
Even if you only get them 3 clients that year it more then pays for your services and its a win win.
You can pocket 2k per client just think how many dentists are in your area that offer veneers and if you could just pick up 2 of them a clients you will have an additional 4k a month. I think you would agree that an extra 4k a month would be very helpful and possibly change your life.
I WILL HAVE BLOGS ON EACH OF THESE CASH FLOWS, AND WILL GO INTO DETAIL AS WELL AS HAVING LINKS WHERE YOU CAN LEARN DETAILED STEP BY STEP INFO ON MONETIZING THESE FULLY SO STAY TUNED.
I cant wait to follow your progress please comment below with questions and where you are in your journey, and I look forward to talking to you again.. Thank you and have a great day!!
Always remember no one will create your destiny for you. So go create the destiny you always wanted.
