For people who have some type of expertise but are not sure what website would allow them to sell that, how can they start that search? For example, if somebody was good at CAD design but didn't know about thumbtack.com, how else would they be able to find that? Well, I'm going to resource 40 of you, don't mind linking it up in the show notes and it's got like 200 something in these different platforms. So that might be one place to start is to go wild to compile that. Perfect. Yeah, definitely. Let's move on to talking more about building out on expertise that you already have.
#427: Okay, maybe the phrase “side hustle” is overused. But it’s also misunderstood.
“Side hustle” is a catch-all term that people use to describe everything from low-paid gig economy labor – Doordash, Uber Eats, Rover – to six-figure consulting for Fortune 500 companies.
On the remote-work side, it includes everything from freelance graphic design (services) to selling bundles of presentation deck templates (digital products).
On the physical goods side, it includes everything from wholesaling (real estate) to flipping antique grandfather clocks (personal goods).
On the e-commerce side, your side hustle might mean starting your own manufacturing, white-labeling and shipping services, in which you distribute toothpaste or trash can lids or desiccant packs.
How do we make sense of such an umbrella concept?
In this interview with Nick Loper, we learn how to wrap our minds around the huge world of hustles. We talk about how to understand the options available, choose a path, and start with minimal capital.
This interview originally aired as Episode 85.
