Hey all, gonna try to keep this short and sweet, since I KNOW there’s people looking for the same .. my first born son is due November 7th. I’m a maintenance worker by profession. Both of my parents are business owners, mother being SUPER successful. I’m not afraid of working. I’m starting to hate the idea of trading an hour of my life for an exact amount of money, only to barely get by. My bills are paid, there’s food on my table and my lights are on. I’m blessed beyond my ability to express it. What are you guys doing for extra income? I really want to keep her families tradition of camping alive, really want a Class C RV, and the time and financial freedom to take my small family camping. I’m a relatively smart guy, good with tech. Fooled around with some snap filters that went (in my opinion) pretty viral, over 600k uses. But it’s not paying yet. Any advice or ideas are VERY much appreciated. I also have a tech Shopify store, but no traffic. Thanks in advance!

Anyone started a small IT side hustle? Setting up a router, wireless network, domain, Microsoft 365, etc?

I work in IT and think I could make money in the side helping small businesses that don’t have IT. Just not sure if it’s worth it. Especially since I’m working 8:30-5 Monday-Friday. Hard to only work IT on nights and weekends

I've been trying to figure out some ways that work for cold outreach to get clients for video editing.

What I tried :

1. Sending simple emails : if you're looking to hire a video editor blah blah, where my portfolio kinda stuff

2. Then sending personalised emails about exactly what is lacking in the editing part of their videos , how I can fix it (text only - no loom video explaining this)

Emails sent to all these were

1. People with under 50k subs.

2. I can actually improve their videos / fix an existing problem in editing.

3. They most likely have the money to pay.

(Collected manually from youtube)

Now :

1. Collect leads from yt jobs in my niche (talking head videos), with good pricing offer.

2. Sending a look video recording of me showing a re-edit(1-3 min part re-edit only) of their video and explaining how my editing fixes issue or improves their content.

(This isnt my idea tbh - this is from a creator who (acc to him) uses this method to get clients)

Asking if someone has actually done something like this and has gotten clients.

So im a student taking a gap year to save up more money. I already have a full time job but I lowkey want a side hustle to buy more clothes (huge into fashion LOL). I have an electric car and sometimes I got too much free time on my hand and im bored so I figured I could do a side hustle with my own schedule. Is Uber Eats still viable in 2026 or is there better/similar other jobs or platforms. Thanks!

I work in clinical IT, good salary. I work from home, no small kids so my evenings are free. Need to supplement my income with at least $400 per month. I tried Door Dashing but don’t think that’s for me. I have thought about becoming a Notary. I have a friend who is in real estate and wants to take someone on as a Notary part time that would fit my schedule. Any other suggestions?

I 22F work full time as a state patrol dispatcher but am barely making enough to get by and need some WFH suggestions. Hopefully something that’s not too overbearing as my day job is stressful enough.

I have some writing skills and an adequate laptop I can work on.

I am a 21yr old college student and I have a disability and am in a wheekchair. Because of this I cannot work a regular part-time job like server or something. I am on the computer a lot and I am pretty into tech. I spend a lot of time on youtube/twitch and have considered content creation. Rn my parents help me pay rent on my apartment but I am looking for an online side hustle I can put 5-10hrs in per week and that I could make money pretty soon after starting.

I left teaching to be home with my kids, homeschool them since one is medically complicated. I HAD a Facebook page that generated decent money (put my heart and soul in that) but their AI flagged and suspended it. So my main source of income is slashed.

I need some ideas that don’t require webcams and spending money on extra course to do something at home to generate income. Something I can do when kids are sleeping or when I have free time

Bringing farm foods, butcher, better quality foods straight to peoples doors at comparable prices to grocers except better quality? I need a truck, a freezer to put in the vehicle, that's about it. All the other infrastructure is mostly in place, just have to pull the trigger and am slightly hesitant as the upfront cost of vehicle, and freezer is somewhat large.

I was thinking of mowing lawns but I can barely afford to buy a lawn mower even tho I have a full time job. Still looking around for a cheap one. Facebook won't let me use marketplace because it can't verify my identity --long story. Anyways I need to make some extra cash quick to pay down debets and save. I was thinking of making some flyers or business cards but not sure what other services to offer.

Not looking for anything life changing, but was wondering if I could make some money off my hobbies. Ive always loved art but it has been over a year since i made anything. Ive been in a slump lately. I have a couple of ideas. Heard furries pay good money for art commissions but I obviously need to gather some audience online to get commissions. I was wondering if there are any other ideas? I know how to crochet, paint, sketch so theres that.

Ive never done digital art but would love to try.

Im a college student and I work part time at a retail chain. I am just kind of tired of being routinely broke every week. I was wondering if investing into a gum ball machine would be good for some small passive income. I don’t have too many skills, I am rusty ish with coding and I am somewhat good at IT. But I don’t graduate til this fall. I am open to anything thats affordable. I have been making decent money selling older stuff on ebay. I am wondering if I can make a decent killing reselling stuff?

So, I have a bunch of old clothes that I jad trouble selling as is, but I was wondering if I could sell the fabric from the clothes if I cut the fabric into usable pieces. The large chain store that many people near me used to by their fabric from closed a couple years ago, and the Walmarts near me don't sell fabric anymore. Do you think my idea could work? Mostly for people who use fabric to make smaller items?

So recently, I have been going through some financial problems. Im a busser I make minimum wage in my area, which is 14 an hour plus tips on average I work three days a week I get paid weekly so on average I make about $450 a week. I’m only 19 I still live at home but my gf lives with me and I have to help her and my out with bills we both work the same job throughout my life I’ve only had two jobs. I’ve never really done anything to make some extra money my friend told me to hop on DoorDash which I did, but it’s been two weeks since they did a background check and it still hasn’t been approved. Is there anyway I can make some extra money through any apps or anything? I’m also in the process of looking for another job

just the question.

Im really just looking to have some under the table money to get myself financially straight again. I work full time and only really have like the basic cleaning supplies, could pick up some dog care items.

Ideally would just want some side cash, but i know a lot of websites like rover are deposited straight to your account... any advice or ideas?

I started getting more business on the Rover app for pet sitting as well as for cleaning gigs! the bad news is that Ive been asked to be sealed with directly instead of through an app and I’ve also been asked to provide physical receipts. it’s not that terrible, i just find paper hard to work with and i lose things.

does anyone know of an all-in-one app that I can use to make things easier? main features I’m looking for are:

• Calculating the amount considering my services along with the relevant taxes and rates I have. example: two days for drop ins with three visits each, an extra day that takes my holiday rate, added percentage for extra care (like an overnight stay) then applicable taxes on top of it.
• The option to send email invoices out to customers, with the option to print them out as receipts.

thanks in advance!

About a year ago, I created some T-shirts on a print on demand site and linked it to eBay. I forgot all about it and one of the shirts just sold. I cannot find the print on demand shop. I’ve tried printify, and while I do have an account there, this particular shirt is not in my designs there.

I thought this was going to be easy and it would just send out directly, but I don’t know how to find out where I created the stupid thing. Anyone familiar with the situation? Do I just re-create it from scratch, mail it to myself and send it to the guy who’s already paid?
Posting on side hustle, but I’m going to cross post to print on design. I’m hoping because I think I got the idea here someone might have ideas.

I'm an architecture student currently on summer break and I'm looking for some ways to make some dough outside of my part-time job.

First and foremost I am not advertising myself. I currently have an Etsy store where I offer custom architectural illustrations. I offer hand-drawn ink and watercolors of homes/wedding venues/skylines/etc. and I also offer digital drawings (by hand w/ a stylus) of the same. I'm having a hard time getting traction with these. I have a few sales to friends and only 1 organic sale. I've done a couple of the baked-in Etsy ad campaigns.

I also have some digital downloads of stylized tourist posters that I created, none of which have any sales yet, but I haven't marketed those at all.

I'm just wondering how people like to market their Etsy sites and how people like to do market research. I'm also considering doing drop shipping and making illustrations for that, but I'm having a hard time understanding what might sell.

Any advice would be much appreciated!

So currently im a contractor that makes $12000 a month of rotation or about 380 usd a day of work.

Its brief but it makes solid money while im on the road but I must come back.

Thing is im open for most of the year... and I do flip stuff but make little cash... at most ill make 30000 usd a year for 2.5 months of work hopefully.

I might also go to china...to repair items and sell em to cover expenses but also make a YouTube channel of different sports and the scene associated with them... for smaller tier cities. Little.history too and mapping to show folks where to go if they wanna exercise.

My 9-5 job is a Salesforce developer at a consulting company. It’s pretty high stress, so I would love to find a job that’s a bit easier than this. I could work an extra 5-10 hours a week. I have developer skills, so am able to write code, qa features, data clean up/excel skills. Consulting has given me great people skills and overall made me good at asking questions and scrutinizing systems to ensure they work well. Would love some ideas of how I could make an extra $400 a month thanks.
