EARN MORE
Being frugal doesn't mean we don't have to strive to make more money or make money doing the things we love. It doesn't mean we are lazy and wait for things to come to us. On the contrary, it means that we hustle and we make opportunities happen where there weren't any. It means we say NO to a lot of things in order to say YES to things that we value. It means we don't obsess over other people's businesses, bank accounts, brands, social media followings, cars, houses or accomplishments. We are creators of our own opportunities and accomplishments. With that said, what are you doing right now to bring you closer to your dreams? What are YOU doing???
There are so many ways to make more money. Thanks to the age of the internet, there are so many ways we can make extra money EVEN from home. In fact, making money online from the comfort of your home, regardless of location, is far easier than most people think. Sure there are a lot of people doing this now, but in my opinion there is room for everyone! Don’t let that stop you! Focus on YOU!
Making some extra side hustle cash doesn't actually have to be complicated. As someone who has been immersed in online work for over the last few years, I can tell you that it takes some work but it WORKS. Hey, no one said earning more doesn’t equal more work…but the great thing is you can even make money doing what you love and/or what you are passionate about.
It all comes down to what your goals are and just how much you are looking to add to or even automate your income. Could you make an extra $100 per month? Absolutely. How about an extra $1000 per month? How would that additional income change your life? To most of use, it would make a HUGE difference. But, what if we were looking at thousands more per month or even tens of thousands more? How would that change the course of your life? The question isn’t “can you make money on the internet?” rather it is “how much of your time is worth it?”.
We all have some extra time—even if it doesn’t feel like it. If we are really honest with ourselves, we could easily sacrifice some pleasurable activities for money making opportunities—not what you wanted to hear huh? That’s understandable. It doesn’t, however, take too much effort to make some extra money on the side, but the effort will show for how much you can generate and how quickly.
Depending on your skills, you could easily make a few hundred dollars or even a few extra thousand per month. Don’t have the skills, learn new ones. You may not make the fast cash by learning the new skills, but making that initial investment in yourself (similar to schooling) will pay off in the end. Here are my top ways to make more money now and even maybe start a side-hustle or your own business.
20 WAYS TO MAKE MONEY NOW!

For example a medical office might need someone to do medical transcription to record information about a patient’s appointment, or a law enforcement agency might need transcription services for court cases, legal paperwork or suspect interviews. Data entry work, which is a bit easier than transcription work, is also available from companies who hire people to work from home.

If you enjoy creating graphic images, you can start on a budget with online programs like Canva and PicMonkey. Many online entrepreneurs are looking for quick and easy graphics for their videos and posts and will pay for it. There are many people that go to school for this, but many skills we can learn on our own. I have learned so much by doing my own. I have helped others make thumbnails and instagram images. You can do this for others and charge per project.

6. Start a Blog or YouTube Channel:
Creating a blog or a Youtube channel is a great way to earn passive income. While starting a blog might be relatively easy, and making passive income is possible, it does require a lot of time investment order to reap the benefits. However, once that blog is set up, you can generate an income by using advertisements, getting sponsorships, using affiliate marketing, selling your own products or creating courses for sale as well. Once you set up the blog you will need to work on building an audience that keeps coming back for your content. It is the same with a Youtube channel. Create videos on topics you love, tutorials, advice, share your life—the sky is the limit. Think of what you are passionate about and try to solve a problem that other people are having. Then, simply produce more content and line up more offers. As your blog and channel grow in popularity, you'll be able to get more sponsors, ad views and sales.
7. Affiliate Marketing:
Affiliate marketing is a quick and easy way to earn money online. While it is necessary to have an audience to “sell” these products or services, it is a great way to make passive income from home while doing it. Depending on the product, some products or services have very high earring potential per click. With this, a very large profit can be made by driving traffic to specific offers for the right audience. The most effective affiliate marketing models are when the right offer is presented to the right people. One major affiliate marketing partner is Amazon.com but you can also find affiliate marketing offers on sites like Clickbank.com, CJ.com and Rakuten.com.
8. Rent:
Another way you can make money at home is to actually rent out your home or a portion of your home. AirBnB.com has created a sizable industry out of an online selection of real life vacation rentals. While the market did exist prior to AirBnB’s existence, it has definitely grown tremendously since the inception of AirBnB.com. AirBnB is growing rapidly and is a safe and trusted way to rent out stagnant square footage that you may have not been utilizing otherwise. The market is booming and the time to rent (short term) is NOW no matter how big or small your home or condo might be. Check local regulations in your area to be safe.

Is there a specialty that you have? Create a course teaching others and sell it! We are always looking to level up and learn new skills and taking a course is sometimes the easiest way to do that. One of the most amazing ways to make extra money from home is to create online courses. It does take a lot of work and and upfront time investment, but once you do the work you can get passive income over and over again. Some popular sites to create and launch online coures are Udemy.com, Ankur.com, Teachable.com and Kajabi.com. There are courses from everything on how to knit to how to use excel. Having an relevant audience makes marketing the course a lot easier, but you could also use ClickFunnels.com to create an entire membership course with everything all in one place.
11. Sell STUFF Online:
Many people are earning a full-time income by selling items on Craigslist and Ebay. You can do this by selling your own items, you can help sell items for other people and take a small commission or you can “flip” items by searching for deals in your area and selling to a global audience. Each platform requires a little bit of learning and takes a little learning of some online marketing skills to be effective, but it works and a solid side-hustle income can be earned in a short amount of time.
12. Launch an E-commence Site:
Ecommerce is another way to make money. Selling products on Amazon is one of the top ways to make some impressive cash—even build a business. There are websites like Alibaba.com where you can buy products at wholesale and sell them online through sites like Amazon to sellers looking for that particular product. Most successful Amazon sellers have a brand and strategic product sales funnel strategies in place, but this platform is an amazing way to make money. You can also create your own products and sell your creations on Etsy.com. Whether you make clothing, crafts, baby toys, jewelry, or electronic products, you can open up your own store on Etsy. This is another great side hustle that takes work, but the payoff can be huge—plus you will be creating and selling something you love making.
13. Social Media Management:
Social media management is a wonderful way to generate an income from home. Many of us use social media as a hobby and we don’t even realize the skill set that we learn just by doing it. With the expansion of social media, businesses are wanting to find their way in front of potential customers. The funny thing is that most of these very businesses do not have a clue about how they can increase their exposure. That is where your skill set comes in. Building an actual social media management business might take some time and effort, but it can be done. To begin, you can work with one or two companies or “clients” and build from there. Eventually, you could charge a sizable monthly fee for each business to help manage their social media, allowing you to earn a full-time income doing it!
14. Photography:
Thanks to the creation of digital photography, taking beautiful pictures is easier now more than ever. You can take pictures for local clients—family, wedding, pregnancy and birth photography are especially popular. This type of photography can also earn royalties by selling your photos to sites like Snapwire.com, istockphoto.com, Shutterstock.com and Fotolia.com. In person photography can earn upwards of $100-$500 per hour depending on experience.

Making money by writing and self-publishing an e-book is easier than ever. Amazon will allow you to publish your book for free, while you can create and sell your own digital products on sites like Etsy.com, Gumroad.com, E-junkie.com, and BigCartel.com just to name a few. You can write about your life or topics you are passionate about. It is truly amazing! There are many different options available for how you can price your book and earn income from the sale of your book. If you are a good writer, consider searching online sites such as freelancer.com for writing jobs. Many companies need freelance writers for many different reasons such as their blog, website, instruction manuals, brochures, etc. You can sell your own self-published books on your own or through Amazon. Writing books and selling them online has never been easier. If you have a great story and information to share, you can put it together in a book and sell it to generate passive income.

If you are responsible person and like animals, you walk dogs for extra money. If you live in a dog-filled neighborhood, create a few flyers on your computer and slip them into mailboxes. You can advertise your “dog-walking” or "dog-sitting" services for free on Facebook or Craigslist and a website called Rover.com and and pitch your price. Rover.com is like an Air-Bnb for taking care of dogs. You can go over other's houses or even take the dog with you. Once you build up a steady stream of clients and your dog-walking service you can dive into pet-boarding as a viable side-hustle option. Many people hire others to come to their house to keep their pet company and cared for. I know a few people who have made this their full-time business. You can also try pet grooming as a side-hustle. You can offer to make home visits, or if you have some money to invest, you can purchase and outfit a mobile van so that you can groom pets on the go.
