– Hey everyone. So today I have a huge video for you because I am gonna be revealing a hundred, yes, a hundred differentbusinesses and side hustles that you can get started withand make money work for free. That’s right, for free. No hidden fees, no hidden startup costs. All you will need tostart these is yourself and what you already have on hand, such as a computer or a phone. And yes, for many of thesebusinesses and hustles, they work worldwide, not just in the USA. And if you’ve watched side hustle and business idea videos before, I think that some of the ones on my list will surprise you becauseI’m gonna be showing you some that I’ve seen no otherYouTuber discuss before. But that’s not all, nope, becausein addition to showing you a hundred differentbusinesses and side hustles that can be started for free,I’m also gonna be showing you how you can get something else for free and that is my eternalgratitude by taking a moment out of your very busy dayto give my video a like to subscribe becauseseriously, every time you do it it genuinely supportsme, so thank you so much for those of you out therethat take a moment to do so.So, yes, once you’ve gone ahead and gotten my eternal gratitude, we can move on to the realreason why you are here, which is of course to find newmoney-making business ideas or side hustle ideas thatyou can start for free. So here is the deal, right? I know a lot of peopleare probably thinking, well gee, Sarah, why do you have a hundred different ideas on your list? Isn’t that a little bit excessive? Well, the reason why I’ve got so many is because I know thateveryone watching this is gonna be different. People are gonna havetheir own different skills, they’re gonna have theirown different hobbies, they’re gonna have theirown different goals, which is why I’ve madesuch a comprehensive list.So for example, I know thatfor some people watching this, their goal isn’t to getrich, it’s to earn extra cash on the side each month,by completing simple tasks on their phone and so for them, my first side hustlemight be perfect for them, which is this, being amystery shopper for hire. As a mystery shopper, you audit a store to ensure it is running smoothly. Different countries have their own mystery shopping gig apps,such as Field Agent in the USA, which pays between threeto 20 US dollars per gig. So for example, one gig on Field Agent might be to go into a supermarket and to check that specificvegetables are in stock and if they are, to takephotos of the shelves and the food prices. Your audit helps the supermarket check if they are ordering theright amount of vegetables and if they have enough staff in the store to keep their vegetable section stocked.As you can see, lotsof people have started their own mystery shopping hustle and now earn extra money each month, completing gigs like this, while they shop for their own items, which is pretty cool. Or maybe you might preferthis next simple hustle. There’s this free websitehere, Task Rabbit, which is available in multiple countries, where you can pick upclients for physical labor and practical skills projects. And one of the projects thatyou can hire yourself out for is this, being a line stander. Yes, it’s really that simple. You just stand in lineon behalf of clients. Line standers charge between15 to 35 US dollars an hour, and it can add up. For example, one linestander made 1,500 US dollars for standing in line for a few days to pick up an iPhone 5on launch for a client.But of course, on the flip side, I know that for many of you watching, you don’t want side money, youwant serious full-time money that will let you quit your job. And so if that is you,then I’ll have businesses and hustles on here to suit you as well, such as this, starting a YouTube channel. If you already have a phonewith a nice camera on it and you have a microphoneand you have a computer, then you can download freevideo editing software like this and get started. As you can see, in the past 28 days, I’ve made over 20,000US dollars from Ad Sense playing on top of my videos, so if you have a YouTube channel idea, nothing is stopping you fromstarting it today, for free.Of course, I also understand, that some people don’t want to do things like create videos andwould instead prefer to do practical tasks inexchange for full-time cash. And so if that is you, I will have full-timepractical skill businesses too, such as a dog walking business. There are free apps likethis one here, Rover, that let you pick up clientsthat need tasks completed for their pets, suchas walking their dogs. If you head on over to Reddit, you’ll see that using this free app, lots of people have quit the jobs to do their dog walkingbusinesses full time, which is super cool. But of course, I also knowfor some people watching this, that this is the oppositeof what they want. They don’t want to have tocomplete tasks for cash, they want to be ableto earn passive income from their new business or hustle.And so if this is you, I will have businesses on this list too, such as, starting a freemerch by Amazon store and earning commissionsfrom T-shirt pictures that you upload. And this is a business thatmy longtime subscribers will recognize, so do yousee this T-shirt here? Using the Jungle Scout estimator tool, we can estimate that in the past year, this T-shirt has sold over 6,900 T-shirts, with more, of course, duringpeak holiday sales periods like Christmas. Well, as you will see shortly, at its current price of $17 and 95 cents, the creator of this T-shirt is earning $3 and 69 centcommission per T-shirt sold, which means that they’ve earnedroughly 25,000 US dollars passively this year, justfrom this one T-shirt. So here’s how this hustle works quickly. First, you do need to registerfor Amazon’s merch program and luckily, there are lots of free videos on YouTube showing tipsand tricks for submitting a great application. But yes, once you do registerfor Amazon’s merch program and are accepted, like I have been, you then just come inhere and select which of their products youwould like to customize and then upload a picture ora slogan that you’ve created that you’d like to customize it with.And you can also set your product price and so, if I set my T-shirt to be priced at $17 and 95 cents, you of course can see that the commission rateper sale is $3 and 69 cents. And of course you can chooseyour favorite product colors, such as your favorite T-shirt colors to print your design onto and after that, you then come and fill outsome product page details for your T-shirt, so you give it a title, some descriptive bullet pointsand a product description and then you save it.Once reviewed and accepted onto Amazon, your T-shirt will now haveits own product listing on Amazon that customers can find when they’re searching for gifts for friends or family members. And the cool thing is thatwhen a customer does come and says buys a T-shirt from you, it’s Amazon’s print shopthat will print your picture onto a T-shirt, not you. They’ll then package itup and then they’ll ship it out to the customer. They’ll collect themoney the customer’s paid and remove their production fees and pay you the rest ofthe money as a commission. As you can see, it’s asuper passive business.And if you have access toa design app like Canva to create T-shirt pictureslike this already, starting this businesscan be completely free. In the E-commerce industry, we call this a print on demand business. And if you’d like to learnabout how I and others are earning passive incomeevery day from print on demand, you should be sure todownload my free ebook, “The 6 Steps That SixFigure Online Stores Follow to Make Over $10,000 a Month”, and you’ll find a linkto download my free ebook in the video description below. But anyway, back to the video. And as you can see, weare gonna be covering a huge range of businessesand side hustles. And so, even if some on thislist don’t interest you, I highly recommend me thatyou keep watching anyway, because chances are, atleast one on this list will inspire you.So then, let’s carry on. And take a look at some free businesses that you can start on Etsy, that can earn you passiveincome every month. So this here is Etsy, it’san online marketplace. On Etsy, you can list vintagecraft or handmade items that you make. And every month Etsygets hundreds of millions of visits from customers. And so most Etsy sellersdon’t have to advertise or market the items they list here, because they just get totake advantage of the traffic that’s already cominghere to buy products.And the cool thing for usis that Etsy lets you sell digital pictures that you create. It doesn’t need to be a physical object and so one free businessthat you can start on here that many people have successfully done, is creating and sellingdownloadable posters. So, you see this populardownloadable poster here? Well, when you buy this, youaren’t buying an actual poster. You’re buying a picture thatyou can then print yourself onto poster paper and yes,while text and quote posters like this are admittedly very popular, if you’re watching andyou are talented artist, then this is great for you because art posterssell fantastically too.So, take this gorgeous poster set, we can estimate how muchmoney that this has made. So as you can see, thestore has had 2,624 reviews. And out of those, this poster image set has had 273 reviews, so that’s roughly 10% of the stores total reviews, which likely means thenthat it also accounts for about 10% of the stores total sales. Well, as you can see, thisstore has had 68,727 sales and so 10% of that is 6,872 sales. And so if we times it by thesales price of $13 and 56 cents in total, we can roughly estimate that this gorgeousdownloadable poster image set has made over $90,000 US, insales, which is incredible. And this $90,000 would havebeen very, very passive too, because each time a customerpurchases a digital item, Etsy will automatically sendthe customer a download link, and then they will sendyou the money automatically that the customer paid,minus their processing fees.And so your Etsy businesseffectively runs itself on autopilot passively. And so if you have accessto an image editing app, such as my favorite one, Canva, then you can create quote posters and list them for sale on Etsy yourself. Now, normally Etsy charges20 cents per item listing, but if you check the link that I’ll have in the video description,you’ll be able to click it and get a special couponthat will give you 40 free item listings, ifyou open a new store on Etsy.Yay. And the cool thing, is that this is just one example of a digital product businessthat you can open on Etsy. Yep. There are lots of stores that focus on creating andselling different types of digital products,such as clip art stores, like this one here, for example, which specializes in one-offpicture clip art downloads and this store has been very successful. Other stores like tocreate inspiring cards that people can print off,such as affirmation cards. And some stores like tofocus on lunchbox notes. Parents print these onto cardboard and then they cut them out and drop these fun little lunchbox notes into their kids’ lunch boxes, as a fun way to brightenup their day at school. You could also open up adownloadable sticker business. People print these directlyonto sticker sheets and then make their own stickers at home. Or you could createdownloadable quiz sheet packs that people download andprint off for parties or downloadable game packs,such as scavenger hunt card kits that people print onto cardsand then hide around the house to have a fun game for their children or a downloadable greeting card picture.People love to buythese, to print them off onto their own homemade crafty cards. And of course you can also scale any of these different businesses, by not just selling one of these products, but by combining multipleproducts together into a store to earn even more money. If you want to see differentexamples of stores doing this and you also wanna see how anyone can create downloadable productslike these to sell on Etsy, even if you aren’t an artist, by using my favorite graphics at Canva, I highly recommend thatyou watch this video here. But yes, I understandthat an Etsy business isn’t for everyone, noteveryone enjoys being arty. Some people instead haveawesome practical skills. So then, why not earn $63 an hour by selling your skills to others? So, as an example of this,take laundry and ironing. If you are good at these,you can easily find clients to sell this service to, using apps like this one here, Sudshare. Lots of people on Redditare doing this on the side and are earning 15 to20 US dollars an hour. People love how flexible it is and how you can take clientwork when you choose.And if you’re good at fixing things, remember that site Task Rabbit? Here you can find clients who need help with practical skills aroundtheir home and in most cities, it is free to registerand pick up work on here. Task Rabbit removes its fees from the money the customer paid, so there’s no upfront costs. So if you’re good at fixingthings around the house, then you can sell yourservices as a handyman. You can also use apps likethese to open up a range of different businesses,such as a painting business or a furniture assembly business, or a sewing and clothing repair business, or a gardening and lawn mowing business, or a cleaning business. And of course, if you’regood at multiple of these, you can combine them togetherto scale your income.As you can see from userexperiences and reviews on Reddit, people have now quit their day jobs to run their businesses full-time that they built on TaskRabbit, which is super cool. But maybe you’re watchingthis and thinking, well, gee, Sarah, I don’tneed to quit my job, I just like a hustle that can make me some extra money on theside, in which case, why not get paid a thousanddollars plus a week, to shop? So, if you wanna paid to shop, there are a few hustles you can consider. One is that you can do barcode scanning with apps like Shopkick. Retail stores like supermarketshave deals with these apps, so while you’re shopping for groceries, you can scan barcode prices in store and when you do, you earn in-app points, which you can then exchangefor PayPal cash or gift cards. It’s an easy way to an extra money while you’re doing your usual shopping. And you can even scan barcodes while you’re doing groceryshopping for clients.Because thanks to apps like Instacart, you can now get paid to be a professional grocery shopper for hire. Lots of people on Reddit havequit their part-time jobs and some, even their full-timejobs to do this hustle. They love how flexible it is and how it can work around their schedule. Several Redditers areearning $1000 plus a week with this app. And if you are fit and goodat lifting heavy things, then you could instead chooseto be a general shopper using an app like Task Rabbit, in which you can offeryour shopping services for lots of things and not just groceries. So there is a very cool video on YouTube where somebody filmedthemselves with a GoPro as they went and did aTask Rabbit shopping gig if you are interestedto see what’s involved and see if this is right for you. But yes, I know for many people watching, these wouldn’t be theright hustles for them because they’re lookingfor ways to make money without having to leave their house.And so if that is you, thenperhaps you’d rather earn extra passive money at homeby renting out your stuff. Yep, there are lots of different ways to earn free money justby renting out the stuff that you already own. So, if you have a housewith driveway space, you can list it on freeparking apps, like JustPark and rent it out as a car park space. Or if you have a spare guest bedroom, you can rent it out onAirbnb, for some extra cash. Or if you have a pool, you can rent it out on this free app, Swimply. Or if you have a boat,you can earn extra cash by renting it out on thisfree app, Boatsetter. But yes, understandably,most people don’t own a boat and you know what? Neither do I, but what I do own, thatmany people also own, is this, a car, whichyou can also rent out on free apps like Tourerfor extra money each month.And something else I have,that lots of people also have is free space around your house. So maybe you have space in a wardrobe or in your garage or inyour backyard and if you do, you can list it as long-term storage space on free apps like Neighbor. Lots of people are using itto earn extra passive money every month, as this one Reddit user said, “It’s the easiest $1,000 amonth income I’ve ever made”. But as I said at the start of this video, I know many people watching this, they don’t just want to earn side money. They want to earn full-time money. And so if that is you and youalso love animals like I do, then maybe you should start a business that pays you to play with them.Yep. Remember Rover? This is the app thatlets you pick up clients for pet related jobs. Most countries have theirown versions of this app, so for example, here in New Zealand, ours is called, Pawshake,and I’ve used this a lot. But yes, if you want tostart an animal pet business, find your local version of this app and then create a free account and then choose which servicesyou would like to offer. For example, on Rover, if you have experience grooming animals, you can become a professional pet groomer. Or if you have a yard,you can turn it into an in-home doggy daycare for social dogs. People drop off their dogs to you and let them play in youryard while they’re at work, rather than sit at home by themselves. I’ve used this for my dog,Starbuck, and he loves them. Although actually, some dogs are like cats and quite like being athome by themselves napping, which is why you could insteadopen up a drop-in business where you pop into clients’homes throughout the day, to check in on their pets,fill up their water bowl, give them breakfast or dinner, and you can earn additional money by watching themovernight as a pet sitter.Or if you would ratherthat pets come to you, you can let cute doggo sleep on your bed while their owners go out of town and open up an in-home boarding service. And of course, you could also choose to offer multiple services,not just one, it’s up to you. On Reddit, lots of peoplehave quit their jobs to now run their newpet businesses. Woo hoo. But perhaps you preferdigital based businesses. And if so, fair enough. So why not start a freeE-commerce business? Yep, in the business startingan E-commerce business was the opposite of startinga business for free, you had to purchase a website and you had to purchase marketingand advertising for it. But now thanks toadvancements in technology, these costs are now optional and you can start anE-commerce business for free. Yup. And one way to do that is to start a Redbubble business. Now, while my longtime subscribers will know what Redbubble is, most of my viewers arenew and so I’ll have to quickly explain it to them.Thank you so much for yourpatience, I really appreciate it. So yes, Redbubble is abig online marketplace. Every month it gets tensof millions of visits from customers and it sellshundreds of millions of dollars worth of merchandise on behalfof people like my viewers and it pays them commissions for doing so. So, you see all these stickersthat Redbubble is selling and all these phone casesthat they have for sale and all these T-shirts? Well, Redbubble themselvesdesigned none of the pictures that they’re selling on them.Instead, what Redbubble lets you do is it lets anyone with aPayPal account worldwide register and then uploadtheir own pictures or their own slogans to the website. You then give yourpicture or slogan a title, some relevant keywordsand a short description, and then you select whichof Redbubbles products that they can make and sell for you that you think your pictureor slogan looks best on and select to sell those products. And then you save it. Redbubble will nowcreate a digital version of the products that you created and store them in their database and then automaticallycreate product listings for those items on its website that it’s 5 million plus customers can now find and purchase. And then, every timethat someone does come and says, buys a T-shirt,one of Redbubbles print shops will print your designonto a blank T-shirt, package the T-shirt up andship it out to the customer. They’ll remove theirproduction and shipping fees and then pay you acommission for the picture that you uploaded. It’s very similar to openingup a merch by Amazon store, they’re both passive printon demand businesses.Many of my viewers watch my videos and then opened theirown Redbubble stores. Congratulations everybody,on taking action. And don’t forget, ifyou’re watching this video and you’d like to learn even more about how I and othersare making passive income every day with print on demand, you should be sure todownload my free ebook, “The 6 Steps That SixFigure Online Stores Follow to Make Over $10,000 a Month”, you’ll find link download my free ebook in the video description below. But anyway, back to the video. And the really coolthing about this business is that you can scale yourincome by duplicating it. Yep, there are other similarprint on demand websites such as Zazzle and Teepublic. And so what you can dois, once you’ve opened up a Redbubble business, you can then do what my viewers have doneand scale your income by duplicating it ontothese other websites and create stores on themfor additional money.And you can also go and open up a free print on demand business on Etsy. Now this is definitelya bit more complicated, but I do have a free step-by-steptutorial on this channel that shows how to set up afree T-shirt store on Etsy with no startup costs or fess, if you’re interested intrying this for yourself. It’s been amazing seeing peoplefollow my video tutorials on Etsy and then open up their own successful Etsy print on demand stores.Congratulations everyone on taking action. Your results are inspiring. And you can also open up aE-commerce flipping business for free because on eBayyou get 250 free listings each month, so you can comehere and list some extra items you have around your house and then you can takethe money that you earn and then visit thriftstores and garage sales and find cheap items that you can flip for higher prices on eBay. There are lots of YouTubechannels dedicated to teaching this business. And you can also do this onthis free app here, Poshmark. This is specifically forthose of you out there that love thriftingand reselling clothing.If you’d like some tipson starting this business, there is a YouTube video onhere interviewing a seller who makes over a hundredthousand dollars a year selling secondhand clothing on Poshmark, which is pretty cool. But if you’re sitting athome and you’re thinking to yourself, well, gee, Sarah,I prefer cars to clothes, then maybe you should take alook at the next businesses and hustle ideas on this list. Yep. If you like to get paid to drive, there is of course the classic options like being an Uber driver orbeing an Uber Eats driver. And if you head on over to Reddit, you’ll see that people areearning serious full-time incomes being an Uber driverand an Uber Eats driver. But while these are the options that most people thinkabout, if you’re creative, you have lots of other options. For example, if you have a van or a wagon, you could start your own moving business and pick up clients usingthe free Dolly delivery app.Or if your day job hasyou driving around a lot, then you can be paid tohave your car wrapped in advertising and passively earn hundreds of dollars each month. Or if you don’t even have a car, but you still want to be paid to drive, you can by becoming a private driver that drives people aroundin their own cars instead. But yes, onto the next list of businesses. And unfortunately, as I, myself,am not a finance YouTuber turned self-proclaimed NFT expert myself, I sadly can’t make videotutorials on how you can become the next NFT internet millionaire. I wish I could though,because there’s probably a lot of Ad Sense money to be made. But what I can say, is thatif you decide to try to be the next NFT millionaire, it is free to sell NFTsthat you create on OpenSea. They only remove their fees from the sale. There are no upfront costs to sell them. But luckily, if you justwanna make money off of NFTs, but you don’t need to be thenext internet millionaire, there are lots of waysthat you can capitalize on this trend to starta successful business.For example, if you’re amarketer, programmer or artist, you can start a freelancebusiness around them on Fiverr. Freelancers on here arein high demand right now for NFT related projects. People are snapping upNFT advertisement gigs, or Discord server gigs thatcreate NFT discord servers for people to advertiseand sell their NFTs on, or gigs created by artiststhat draw or paint NFTs for people to resell andgigs also created by artists that will create animated gift NFTs that their clients can resell.So if you’re an artistwanting to break into Fiverr, this could be an amazingopportunity to do so. Or you could instead start oneof the next set of businesses on this list, to earnpassive money online instead. And it’s all thanks to thiswebsite here, Creative Market. On here, artists can sell digitalproducts that they create. It’s free to list them for sale. Any fees get removed from the sale, so there are no upfront costs. Some popular items that youcan create and sell on here are brushes for popularart apps like Procreate and Instagram templates thatpeople can edit themselves in Canva and custom fonts that you draw up and patterns that people withprint on demand businesses purchase from you toprint onto their products. And if you don’t mindwhether the money you make is passive or not,they’ve actually recently opened up applications sothat you can apply to be an artist for hire ontheir job board, Dribbly, where high paying, high quality art, freelance jobs get posted. But of course, drawing,painting and designing is just one creative pursuit.For some creative people,they use another way to express themselves, writing. And so if that is you, perhapsyou’ll be more interested in the next free businessesand hustles on my list. First up is this, article writing. You can register to be an article writer on this popular website, Textbroker, which is available inNorth America and Europe. When you register, you take a writing test and depending on the score, you’re paid a set amount per word. So if you score fivestars, you earn five cents a word, for example, whichmeans that you’re paid $50 to write a thousand words. And I don’t know aboutyou, but I’m a fast writer. I could easily do that in an hour, which means that you wouldbe earning $50 an hour, which is pretty cool. I also have friends thatearn hundreds of thousands of dollars a year by selling the novels that they write on Kindle,so it’s free to list anything on here for sale, so why not give it a go, if you’ve already writtena book or a novel.And of course, I can’t not mention another writing businessthat you can start for free, essay writing. Now, understandably, thisis quite controversial in the writing community. An article on it on HuffPostdiscussed how it’s an easy and lucrative business fordecent writers to break into due to high demand yet lowsupply of writers who do it, but as the article also said, while there are innocentreasons some people buy essays, there are some not so innocent reasons why people buy them too. So whether you feelcomfortable starting up your own essay writingbusiness, is up to you. But if you are indeed, quiteinterested in education, then you might instead be interested in the next free businessesand hustles on my list.The first is to become an online tutor. Cambly is one of theeasiest ways to do this. Students come here and postthat they need a tutor now and you can then select to tutor them and you’ll be immediately connected. So there’s no advertisingor marketing required, you pick clients whenit suits you on demand. Or you can answer homeworkquestions on School Solver.It’s the same deal,students post questions and you get paid whenyou submit your answer. And if you enjoy teaching English, then VIPKID is one of the top paying, most reliable websites for tutors to teach English to Chinese students. Taking a look at Reddit,you got lots of options. There’s a mixture of some people who are teaching English full-time and then others who are treating it as a part-time, flexible gig.But if you’re still in schooland getting your degree, then you might instead preferto be a contract note taker for the classes that you’realready taking instead. You could earn 470 US dollars per class that you take notes for. These notes are sold by thiscompany to other students. Or you yourself can insteadto choose list the notes that you take for sale on Nexus Notes and earn 50% commission per sale.So, let’s now move on to other businesses, which I know through personal experience are in huge demand by customers. And that, is by makingmoney through selling and creating and editingphotos and videos. Yup, you’ve probablynoticed that this video has a bunch of lovely stock videos. Corporations and YouTubers like me need these and buy them every day. So if you’re already a photographer and you have some suitable photos, why not list them forsale on stock image sites like Shutterstock.It’s free to list them on here, you earn a commissioneach time it’s downloaded. It’s a super passive way to make money. And if you’re a videographer, you can list and sell stock videos. And if you fly drones, then you can create a drone stock video business, which can be extremelylucrative, by the way, as drone footage easilysells for the highest prices. But if you are interested instead in the editing side of videos and photos, then why not open up afreelance business on Fiverr? I am constantly hiring people on Fiverr to do freelance tasks. I’m always hiring Photoshop editors and I’m always hiring video editors and I’m always hiring AdobePremier template creators and audio engineers andvisual effect engineers.It’s free to list yourservices for sale on Fiverr, they remove the fees from the money that the customer paid, sothere are no upfront cost to getting started. The key is presenting yourself well, so people will choose you. There is a really interesting video from a top Fiverr sellergiving her tips and tricks for optimizing your gigs for sales that I highly recommend you watch if you’d like to start one ofthese businesses for yourself. And something else thatI’m also constantly buying for my videos, is transcriptions. Yes, because I have afunny New Zealand accent and pronounce some words strangely, I always purchase videotranscriptions for my videos. And to buy them, I cometo the site, Rev.com. They are constantly looking for new people to join as freelance video transcribers, to transcribe videos like mine. And while this isn’t ahustle that will make you an overnight millionaire, for many people, it’s a hustle they appreciate.It’s free, it’s flexible andthey choose their own hours and they can do it anywhere in the world. It’s not for everyone,but for the right person, it’s exactly what theywant and what they need. And actually, Rev can bea great way to make money if you know a second language. Yep, some of you eagle-eyeviewers out there may have noticed that I’vestarted translating my videos into multiple languages. And the way that I do that, is with Rev. They pay much higher rates for translators who can transcribe fromone language into another, if you’re interested. Opening up a translation service on Fiverr is also a free way that you can start a translation business and these services are very popular on the website. You can also register for Text Master and translate software in apps or register for Gengo andtranslate website content into other languages. And don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten aboutmy hard of hearing community on this channel.ASL is a language too. In fact, it’s one of thethree national languages we have here in New Zealand. And if you know it, thenyou can turn your skill into a full-time business by registering as an interpreter for hire with booking agencies like Linguabee. But of course, as I saidat the start of this video, not everyone wants to quit their job to do a business full-time. They’re instead just lookingfor some extra side cash. And so if that is you,then you’ll probably want to check out the next hustles on my list. So first up, is participating in surveys for businesses that aredoing market research. You get matched with surveysbased on your demographic and you get paid cash for completing them on websites like Prolific. You can also get paid to participate in academic research surveys as well, on websites such as Respondent. I’ve checked it out on Reddit. And some people wereearning hundreds of dollars in extra money for completingRespondent surveys. Because surveys are matchedbased on your demographic, some months you’ll havemore surveys than others.The general advice was tojust check back each day, to see if the survey popsup, that you’re eligible for. And if you’re in the USA,you can also register to be an E-juror. As an E-juror, you willread over a lawsuit and see the evidence, bothfor and against the defendant. Afterwards, you’ll beasked to fill in a survey, answering questions,such as whether you think the defendant is guilty and what evidence swayedyour opinion either way. Now, lawyers hire E-jurorsto read pieces like these, so that they can see ifthey have a good chance at winning their court case,before they go to trial. But if you aren’t based inUSA, that’s totally fine because you still have plentyof options to get paid, to give your opinion withapps that are available for people living worldwide,such as earning cash gift cards for completing quick surveyquestions on Google Opinion and also for this website, Neevo. So, you know how Facebookhas, for example, face recognition technology? Well, companies like that, use Neevo to hire contractors like you or I to review the results and give our opinion on how well that AI did.Some Reddit uses like this one here made quite a bit ofextra money with Neevo. He was paid 180 US dollars to review how well an app translated German words, which he reviewed while hewas watching YouTube videos in the background. And another popular way to earn money for giving your opinions,is to be a user tester. Yep, companies like Microsoft,test their websites and apps with real users like youor I on websites like this to give our opinions on whether we think the websites and apps are easy to use. And if you head on over to Reddit, you’ll see that peoplehave been earning hundreds, to even thousands of dollarsin side income each year, just with this user testing hustle.But if instead of side income, you’re looking insteadfor more serious cash as in really, really serious cash, then you’ll definitely want to check out the next free business ideas on this list. And yes, people have really been making over $150,000 a month doing this. And it’s thanks to Airbnb. Now, usually people think of Airbnb as a place to list yourhouse or a guest room for people to rent outwhen they’re on vacation. But you can list more than that. You can list and sell experiences. Now, pre pandemic, people would list their offline experienceslike tours on here that you could book, but due to COVID-19, they opened up a section on the website for digital experiences andso people started hosting fun, webcam based experiences.And really, this seems tohave been the best kept secret for free business ideas ever. People have been hosting digital events and they’ve been absolutely crushing it with the top experience bringingin up to $150,000 a month during the height of the pandemic. And so obviously earning $150,000 a month is the exception and not the rule, but I still think it’s aninspiring case study to read because it’s a remarkable example of people taking advantageof a unique opportunity and then creating amazing things just by taking action and giving it a go, because these are nothigh tech, slick events that are being run by corporations, but people being creativewith what they have on hand. So to help you come upwith some ideas for events that you could create and run, I thought I’d showcasesome popular examples of digital experiences,that have done well.So first up is cooking classes. Virtual cooking classes from people who live in a country,teaching how to cook their local cuisine,has been very popular. Next up is craft classes. Similar to cooking,people love learning about how to create local crafts from people who live in the countrythat they originate from. And then next up is beer and wine tasting. So for example, beer ispretty popular in the UK. So one of the more populargroup experiences for this, is this fun UK themed beer tasting event. People taste beers whilethe host gives commentary on the beer, like explainingits history and how it’s made. Next up, is digital scavenger hunts, which make for fun group activities. People also love to sign up and register for virtual tours. In these, the hostliterally takes a webcam out and visits the local areaand guests watching live can join in and it can bean interactive experience. And so, I think my favorite of these, is this panda virtualtour where the host goes and films pandas in wildlife parks.And he lets the viewers ask questions, which the panda staff answer. And of course, now that travelis becoming a thing again, travel agents are popular on here, too. People can book calls or getadvice on what they should do in your local city or country. And now that people are outand about and traveling again, it also means that there aresome amazing opportunities to make money, with a travel business. Thanks to the classicAirbnb travel experiences that tourists can of course, book. I’ve booked experiencesthrough this before and it’s been fantastic. For example, I’ve booked multiplephotography tours on here.Like this one I did in Austin, Texas. The photographers I’ve askedwho were running these tours, usually told me thatthey had tons of bookings and they didn’t havetrouble getting customers, which is pretty cool. But even if you aren’t a photographer, you can still run asuccessful business here. For example, you could run and host a cultural tour business,or a shopping tour where you take gueststo the best shops around where you live, thriftingtours are especially popular, or a hiking and walkingtour in a local nature spot, or a food and drink tourwhere you take guests around to the best local spots to eat and drink, or for the more adventurous, a pub crawl. And of course, if you yourself are a chef and are amazing cookof your local cuisine, then offering yourservices as a personal chef is another great way to start a business on Airbnb Experiences.And if you aren’t a chef, buthave another awesome talent, don’t worry, you are in luck, because classes and lessonson popular local activities, such as yoga or surfing, ifyou live in a beach city, are also very popularand get tons of bookings. So if you’ve ever wantedto be paid to surf, well, now you know howpeople actually live out that dream every day. And of course, anothergreat way to make money from your hobbies andpassions, is to do what I do, which is to create a YouTube channel.As I’ve already shown, onestyle of YouTube business that you can start, is a YouTube channel where you focus on gettingas many views as you can, so that you can earn asmuch money as you can from ads played on top of your videos, but there are others too. So for example, you could starta tutorial YouTube channel, where you create tutorialvideos for your favorite apps that you use and earnmoney with affiliate links for the apps that you teach.Now, Wholesale Ted isn’t adedicated tutorial channel specifically, but I havecreated several tutorial videos. So for example, this is thetutorial video I uploaded over a year ago, showing how to use my favorite designing app,Canva, to make T-shirt designs. Well, in the video description, I have an affiliate link to Canva. This link has a littletracking code attached to it that tracks whether people purchase a paid Canva subscription or not. And if they do, Canvarewards me with a commission. As you can see, in the past 30 days, I’ve made over 1,700 US dollarsin affiliate commissions, from people who’ve beenusing my affiliate links on my YouTube video tutorials. And another different typeof YouTube channel business that you could create, isreviewing products you have, like this YouTuber has done. In their video description,they have an affiliate link that you can click to buythis product on Amazon. And if you do buy thisafter clicking the link, they will earn commissions through the Amazon Associates affiliate program. And another type of channel that you should considerstarting, is in my opinion, one of the most overlookedopportunities right now and that, is to create a channel focusing on YouTube Shorts videos, which is YouTube’s version of TikTok.They currently have a $100million incentive fund and are giving out up to10,000 US dollars a month to creators as a reward for making and posting Shortsvideos, if they go viral. And there are two reasonswhy, in my opinion, YouTube Shorts is sucha great opportunity. The first is that thesevideos are easy to make. It’s much easier to film, say, your dog on your phone for 60 seconds, versus filming and editinga fancy vlog video together. And the second reason,is that it’s way easier for your videos tosucceed on the platform.Consider this, ifsomeone’s watching YouTube and they’re watchingstandard YouTube videos for an hour, that are onaverage 10 minutes long, YouTube can only showthem 60 videos per hour. So they have to be very selective over which videos they show the person. Whereas, if someone’swatching YouTube Shorts videos for an hour, since they’rejust 60 seconds long, YouTube now needs to show them 60 videos, so that is why a lot more creators have room to succeed on YouTube Shorts compared to traditional YouTube channels.Basic videos without fancy editing are crushing it on YouTube Shorts and earning their share ofthe 100 million US dollars in cash that YouTube is paying out to Shorts creators rightnow, which is pretty cool.
