There’s never been a better time to start making money online.  You’ll need a laptop or desktop, smartphone, internet connection and an email address. 

Are you ready to unleash your earning potential? You can use these methods either as a side hustle or as full-time income.  The earning potential is up to you!

Let's Get Started...........

Fiverr

Fiverr is a great marketplace where you can earn money doing specific jobs.  Two of the easiest ‘jobs’ you can do via Fiverr are ‘Singing Happy Birthday’ and becoming an ‘Empathetic Listener’.  To ‘Sing Happy Birthday’, you’ll need to record a video. I recommend using your smartphone to record the video and a free editing software like Clipchamp to put the finishing touches and add special features to the video.  To become an ‘Empathetic Listener’ you’ll need a quiet location and access to a conferencing software like zoom.  

Rent Your Own Car

Rent Your Own Car – if you’re working from home and your car is sitting in the driveway then it can start making money for you.  One website you can use to rent your car is Turo.

Rent Your Space

Do you have a shed or spare room or garage or attic you’re not using?  Start renting out this space on your property to earn extra cash.   Learn more: Go to Neighbor or StoreAtMyHouse.

Virtual Babysitting

Virtual babysitting isn’t for everyone, but if you’re a bit more creative or an inspiring entertainer, this option may be for you.   Parents may need to finish a work project or get some tidying done around the house so they will hire a virtual babysitter to keep an eye on the little ones. The best part is that you don’t have to worry about travelling! 

Rent a Friend

Introverts or people who have recently relocated are looking for people to help them boost their confidence or introduce them to local activities. You can either be a ‘friend’ virtually or in person. Two sites where you can sign up are Rent-A-Friend and Rent-A-Cyber-Friend.

Online Tutor

If you have a college degree in a certain subject, are a teacher, or a passion for a subject, then you can become a tutor.  You’ll need to be available in the evenings and weekends, be organized as you’ll need to create and track lessons with your various students, and have access to video conferencing tools. Online Tutor jobs are posted on most job websites including LinkedIn.

Sell Websites

You don’t have to be technical to create and sell websites but you will need to be contact businesses to make the sales. To create the websites, you can use an AI tool like Durable.   Look at websites of your local businesses and then use the AI tool to create an updated version and contact the business owner to make the sale.

Sell Digital Prints

This way to make money online may be a bit controversial but you don’t need to be an artist to sell digital prints. Create digital prints using AI tools like Leonardo AI or design tools like Canva and then list your designs on various platforms like Etsy. 

Arbitrage

Buy Low, Sell High!  Go to garage sales, swap meets or Facebook marketplace and buy items at a low price. In some cases you can get items for Free – the Facebook marketplace lists free items.  Then sell these items at a higher price using DoneDeal, Facebook, Craig’s List, Gumtree, Ebay or other online sites.  This way to make money will involve holding physical items, customer service, and a vehicle to collect and deliver items.  

Book Narrator

If you listen to books via Audible than you’ll understand the need for book narrators.  Listening (instead of reading) to books is a growing industry making narration a skill that is in demand. You will need a quality microphone and quiet space. To sign up to become a narrator:  ACX (the largest marketplace) or Findaway Voices.

Sell Courses

If you have a skill, you can create a course to teach others how this skill and then sell your course directly on platforms like Systeme.io or learning platforms like SkillShare.

Transcriber

My grandmother taught me how to touch type and I’ve been forever grateful. (I learned on an actual typewriter.)   As a touch typist, one way to earn money, is by becoming a transcriber.  Other equipment you’ll need is a set of headphones and a pedal.  Files are sent to you electronically and depending on the client you’ll have between 1  – 14 days to provide the transcription. Jobs are advertised on general job sites like LinkedIn or specialized websites like Transcribe Me or Got Transcript.

Dog Walker / Companion

If you love dogs, this is a way to become ‘man’s best friend’ and get some exercise. People are looking for people to walk and play with their dogs. If you’re more flexible you can get paid to dog-sit by allowing the dog to stay in their home when owners need to be away. To get matched to a furry friend: Pawshake

Tax Return Preparer

As Benjamin Franklin said, “There are only to guaranteed things in life: Death and Taxes.”  People need and want help filing their taxes correctly and on time!  The IRS doesn’t have any requirement to become a tax preparer other than getting an identification number.

Question: Do I need a PTIN?

Answer: Anyone who is paid to prepare or assist in preparing federal tax returns or claims for refund must have a PTIN. All enrolled agents must also have a PTIN. Attorneys and Certified Public Accountants do not need a PTIN unless they are compensated for preparing or assisting in preparing federal tax returns or claims for refund.

Train AI

AI (Artificial Intelligence) is the newest segment of the technology industry.  People are needed to train AI so that it can be as useful a tool as possible for the future. Jobs training AI are known as data annotation and one company offering flexible work in this field is Data Annotation Tech.  Instead of being worried about AI taking your job, start working with AI!

Mock Juror

Dr. Phil started as an expert in selecting juries. He met Oprah whilst she was on trial in Texas and was hired as her jury expert. The CBS television show ‘Bull’ was based on his experience with mock juries.  Mock juries are being used every day by attorneys to practice how they present their cases before going to court, and they need people to serve on these ‘juries’.  You will get paid depending on the length of time and complexity of the case. These jobs are posted on specialized sites like Ejury and JuryTest.

Research Studies

One of the most common ways to earn money online is by completing surveys.  However, these surveys pay maybe $1- 3.00 per survey.  You won’t become financially free with this low payout. On the other hand, research studies pay between $50 – 200 and you’ll be making a real difference.  Check out the opportunities on Dscout.

Sell Print-On-Demand Products

T-shirts, mugs, blankets, mousepads, hats, hoodies, if you can print a logo or image on it, then you can sell it as a print-on-demand (POD) item.  You or you prompting AI come up with an image and then use a platform like Printful or Printify to ship your items to the buyers. You can list your images on multiple platforms like Amazon, Etsy, Redbubble, Zazzle, Threadless. Watch my Print-on-Demand Series on YouTube to Learn More!

Give Expert Advice

If you can answer questions about a specific topic, then you’re an EXPERT. People will pay you to answer their questions, and some sites will also pay you to do in-depth research.  These websites claim to be paying people $2,000 – 7000.00 per month. Some websites looking for Experts: Just Answer and Clarity.
