When I first started diving into the world if Side Hustles online I get very overwhelmed, very quickly.
There are so many options out there- believe me, at this point I think I've seen them all
-Amazon KDP
-Print on Demand
-Digital Assets on Etsy Stores
-Create Your Own Course and sell it on Youtube
-Low content books and journals on Amazon
-Affiliate Marketing
-Amazon Influencer Program
I can go on, and on, and on, like the damn energizer bunny...
So what can I tell you... is there a magic answer...
Well, yes and no.
What I have found is that ALL of these programs do work... but not all of them will be for you.
My suggestion is to embrace the chaos of this new exploration and see what you gravitate towards.
Then, are you ready for this, JUST PICK ONE.
Don't take 4 courses at once and wonder why you haven't made any money in 4 weeks.
Just pick one.
There are a lot of great courses out there (I recommend 2 very different courses at the bottom #affiliatelinks ) but not all courses are created equal. I've taken some really crappy ones too. Also, check out one of my favorite podcasts and resources on Affiliate Marketing ODi Productions
Now- maybe the hardest part of all... Give it time.
Do you plant a garden and get beautiful flowers over night? Hell no.
None of these are gonna get you rich quick. You need to water those seeds and take care of them... this new project is your new baby, and guess what hunny pie, babies take a lot of work. There are moments when you will be very proud of your baby and moments when it will make a giant mess. Just keep taking care of it and it WILL GROW UP!
Okay, that was a strange analogy. Thank God I'm not a preacher, can you even imagine what crazy stuff would come out of my mouth.
Consistency is key here. So follow your educational course exactly as it's laid out.
If it says to post to tik-tok 3 times a day- DO IT.
If it says to create a new Blog Post at least once a week- DO IT.
Remind yourself WHY you are doing this to begin with. Are you looking for financial stability, do you want to escape corporate America, are you a stay at home mom or dad, do you just want to be able to afford that luxurious lifestyle or pay for that singing class. Write down that reason and put it on your workstation so it acts as a constant reminder to KEEP GOING.
I believe in you!
