Here are Side Hustle Ideas You Can Start From Home Today:

1. Sell collectibles. If you love to hunt garage sales and thrift stores, you can turn your treasure-hunt finds into cash by reselling them online or at flea markets. Things like designer clothes, trading cards, and sports memorabilia can sell for quite a bit of money if you find rare items.

I once earned $200 from flipping a pair of Gucci shoes that I found at a thrift store on Poshmark.

2. Craft selling on Etsy. If you can crochet, sew, or have other crafting skills, you can sell your creations on Etsy with your own online store! Etsy is a popular place to shop for gifts, so there are always people looking for new and unique items.

When I lived in Chicago I would crochet ear warmers and sell them on Etsy.

3. Dog walking. If you love animals and don’t mind walking them, this is a good option. A lot of dog owners need someone to let their dogs out during the workday or while they’re traveling. Advertise your services on the Nextdoor app and you’ll probably have a good handful of clients in no time.

4. Social Media Management. There are so many social media platforms now, people just can’t keep up. Businesses and bloggers are always looking for someone to help them manage social media.

BTW, are you following me on socials? Let’s keep in touch! I’m on Pinterest, IG, Facebook, YouTube, and TikTok

5. Renting out your yard on Sniffspot. There are a lot of dog owners out there who may not have access to a private yard where they can let their dogs play. Dog parks don’t work for everyone, such as those with reactive or anxious dogs, so a private space is highly sought after. With Sniffspot, you can rent out your yard for private use by the hour or day and make some easy money while helping animals.

6. An online course. If you’re a great teacher and know how to package your material, creating an e-course might be just the right fit for you! You can create an online course about anything you’re highly knowledgeable about. Thinkific is a great platform to start on and makes it easy to get your course up and running.

7. Renting out your car. Similar to dog walking, this requires that the driver knows and follows safety standards. People will also feel much better renting from someone who has been driving for a while and has a clean record.

8. Organizing interior spaces.  If you have a knack for organization, a lot of people could use your help.  You could offer your services to people you know, or advertise in different neighborhoods.

9. Selling your expertise. This might be a tough one for someone who doesn’t have much experience. Think about what you’re good at and if there are enough people in the world that would buy that knowledge. If so, offer your services as a consultant.

10. Coaching people. If you have expertise in achieving a particular result, whether in business, fitness, or another area, you can create a program that helps others achieve the same.
