5 Side-hustles You Can Do To Start Making Money

A salary job is great and all but unless you have a high income job (a lawyer, doctor,e.t.c), you can’t solve all your problems with a job.

Having a side hustle not only gives you the extra cash flow you need to live how you deserve, it also gives you financial security in-case you lose your job.

In this post you will get to see a lot of potential side hustles you can get into to start making a few bucks on your own.

If you don’t have a job this post will show you certain skills you can easily learn to help you start earning a living so keep reading…….

1. 3D CUSTOMIZATION

3D customization is simply a skill that involves you printing a text or picture (most times a combination of both) onto a material.

The material could be a t-shirt, pillowcase, bed-sheet or mug.

WHY IS 3D CUSTOMIZATION A GOOD SIDE HUSTLE?

We live in a world where everybody wants to make a statement and dressing is a big part of it.

When you tell someone that you can put whatever they want on their clothes be it images or text helping them make a louder statement when it comes to their style and personality while looking good in the process, it is usually hard for the person to resist

There are also a variety of things you can customize(mugs, phone cases and pillow cases e.t.c)

This skill can help you take charge of events by making souvenirs or help you make someone’s special day even more special

The best part about this skill is that it can take less 5k-7k to start

The downside on the other hand is that you will have to take some time to perfect your skills.

It is better to start taking 3D customization orders when you have practised a lot so you don’t make mistakes when you have a client.

2. BLOGGING

Blogging is on this list for obvious reasons

It’s super easy to start, you can start for free and it is something you can do as a hobby.

Blogging is something that when done right, it can give you a lot of money.

If you don’t know much about blogging, learn about blogging here.

There are a lot of ways to monetize your blog, from putting ads on your blog to affiliate marketing.

The disadvantage of choosing blogging as a side hustle is that it may take a lot of time before you start seeing results. You have to create content frequently, while having to find ways to drive visitors to your blog.

But if you’re up for the challenge, blogging is an excellent way to earn extra or even passive income.

3. AFFILIATE MARKETING

Affiliate marketing simply means selling another person’s product.

This is a beautiful side-hustle because most times you don’t even need to see the product.

You advertise with your special affiliate link or banner (in most cases) either on your website/blog or on your social media and if a person buys through them you earn a commission.

Another instance is selling the product for a friend/partner and getting an agreed commission if anyone buys.

4. CHEMICAL PRODUCTION

Well I think we all agree that every family needs to clean up something every once in a while. It could be their plates, clothes, toilet whatever it maybe

I’m also sure that everyone wants to have a sweet smelling  place and be free from germs as well(especially in this covid-19 period)

When you can produce the chemicals that can solve these needs you will make some extra cash.

There are a lot of chemical production classes online so try it out if you feel like this is the path for you.

5. ANKARA CRAFTS

 Have you ever seen a picture online where someone’s bag or shoe matches his or her outfit? I bet you wanted to have something like that in your wardrobe eh? 😀

That’s exactly what Ankara crafts is all about.

This skill is all about you learning how to beautify items by covering them with Ankara material

The best part about this skill is that it teaches you how to beautify products that you already have and it can also help you get the best value out of your already old looking stuff by ankaralizing(my word not English) them 😀

Once you make this known to people and they see a few of your products believe me you should have a lot of interested customers

CONCLUSION

A side-hustle is basically a skill you can offer or job you can do besides your usual job to earn some extra cash and if done right can be a great source of passive income.

 It can take away a lot of financial load from you if you find the right one and pursue it earnestly.

The list above is just a summary of the side-hustles you can start immediately and start making a little extra cash by the side 😉
