if you're looking for a realistic video about some side hustle ideas without the purpose of selling you courses on how to get rich you're in the right place you see because most of the videos you see online talk about various side hustle options and then they come to conclusion that side hustle X is the best option and it's going to make you rich therefore you should buy my course otherwise you're going to miss out on your last opportunity to get rich I'm not going to try to sell your course instead I'm just going to share
my honest opinions because I don't want to make money telling other people how to make any online so the first one is video editing especially short form video editing is one of the best side hustles you can look into the demand is super high and there are very few good editors if you want to make a living out of editing you should be really good that's a fact but if your goal is to make some extra side money then you don't have to be the best editor in the world obviously some levels of skills are
I mean require but so is every side hustle so the most important thing is your communication skills and whether are you know how to pit yourself to creators as a creator with 1.3 million Subs I get every single day dozens of emails and DMS for people offering me editing services but I rarely reply them the reason is not because I'm an but because many creators including myself don't have much time to go through each message we get so what you will need to do is proving that your message is worth someone's time opening reading and
replying one of the biggest mistakes I've seen again and again is to talk without any proof it basically goes like this Dy you're leaving money on table you're missing out short form content is super important and I'm really a good editor therefore you should hire me here are some of my passw Works let's h on a call if you're interested okay pause the video and guess the mistakes these people are doing I'm waiting please do it okay ready first of all you might be actually a good editor okay I'm not doubting that but talk is
cheap so we need to show with our actions your past work might not be the best way to measure your skill since everyone has a different style and preference what I would do is I would re-edit a couple of my long form videos into short form content with various Styles and showcase my skill set and ability to do different styles and creativity so you shouldn't be sending the same email copy and paste everyone we need to show some effort and instead of suggesting let's h a call which might just like lead to a back and
forth Email exchange to find a good time which is quite timec consuming especially when we are dealing with like different time zones why not send a calendly link that way I could easily book a time that fits both of our schedules and it saves time for both of us and it's much more productive also don't leave questions on the table you know tell me your delivery time rate how you work and whether you're are open for a negotiation on the same email so that it's easier for other person to book a call if you have
good communication skills and some decent editing skills you're good to go and also don't worry there's so many like free and good resources to learn how to edit so you got this even though I'm a big advocate of starting your own platform sometimes you actually don't have a time to start a social media account because it takes a lot of time investment and effort especially in the beginning to figure out your voice and Style and what you want to share so if you don't have the time freedom to start your own account one of the
best ways to learn the backside is to be a social media manager there are tons of benefits to this first of all the demand is super high second of all you can do it remotely and third of all it gives you the chance to see the backstage of what it looks like to run a social media account so so you can make money while learning how things works and maybe in the future if you will be interested in it you can start your own account and let me tell you there will be such a big
difference being a total beginner and having some experience in social media world so what do social media managers usually do well there isn't like necessarily a specific definition since every Creator might request something different but some of the common things can be answering emails reaching out to Brands to like sign Partnerships manage content calendars help with Creator schedule and basically help the Creator out same as a video editor it's super important to know how to pitch if I would start over and had no experience and knowledge about social media and you know how to make
money online I would definitely reach out to my favorite 50 to 100 creators on Instagram YouTube Twitter maybe Tik Tok to help them out so that I can learn while I make money and build relationship with Brands and also other creators whether you're interested in editing short form content or managing social media as a side hustle having a professional website to Showcase who you are is essential when pitching two potential clients to show how legit you are though building a website can be quite dting in my opinion you know coding technical skills or even hiring
someone to do it for you and spending thousands of dollars it's quite difficult so to solve this issue I recommend hostinger and its AI website builder who is kindly sponsoring a proportion of this video with hostinger's AI power tools in the website builder you can create a unique website for you in just few minutes and let me show you how easy it is first what you need to do is you will go to hostinger.com SL duty1 and boom if you see down you see the plans that hostinger offers so the premium website builder and we

are quite complicated and takes time to create like from scratch for example my Kaizen system I worked with a software engineer who coded some parts of my notion template so if you would go on Fiverr there are a bunch of people building notion templates as a service and you don't necessarily need to know how to code actually so I've been working on creating a new notion template and I know nothing about coding so I've been using chaty B I literally ask it each step and what to code and how to do it and when an
error occurs like I just ask it to fix it so far so good and it's actually working I'm just doing it as a fun right now but to be honest for my future project I will definitely Outsource it because it takes quite a long time you know if I would decide to pick notion templates like building notion templates as a side hustle first thing I would do is build some coal templates make a video explaining how to create on various social media platforms and give it away for free exchange to people's email once I got
people's email I would send them some follow-up emails about my services and about my paid notion templates and how I can help them I would also pick a couple of my favorite creators create some simple version draft templates that they can potentially sell and send them a loom video walking through and ask them to say yes if they want the template for free once they like my notion template I would offer services to build them more advanced version I've sent the good thing about picking notion templates as a niche to talk on social media is
because it's a very specified topic you don't necessarily need to get tons of views to make decent money for example like Thomas Frank U abandoned his main Channel which he had millions of subscribers for a smaller notion Channel because it makes more money and also there are a bunch of people making over six figures under 100K subscribers so you definitely don't need to have a bunch of subscribers if you would be patient and put the work in you can make $1,000 a month to be honest it's a a really good side hustle okay so this
one is not necessarily you can do it uh from your home but I just wanted to include this because in my opinion this is a genius idea business in making money is essentially solving other people's problems right we talked about it what's the biggest issue do people have in lectures in college actually listening to the professor and taking notes boo problem identified so now it's time to solve it I've seen people online recording the whole lecture with voice recorder transcribe it with tools online then turn it into Nice Notes and slides using AI power tools
even though I think it will depend on your like love of your state you're living in and also the uni you go to if it's allowed and if it's completely legal I think it's a good way to make money in uni you know it will motivate you to go to lectures and also you will be able to make some money I think one important note is that while you're taking a voice record it's important to listen to lecture yourself too and take notes so that afterwards you can check whether there were like some errors with
the also rather than selling the slides and notes without any edits I think it's necessary to highlight the important parts and potential questions that can be asked on exam to provide Extra Value so that your customers I mean your classmates will keep coming back just a second warning check the lws before you do it because I'm quite sure in some Unis they don't love to record anything so don't get in trouble okay and also if you're my classmate and watching this please do it and sell it to me because I need the lecture notes let's
look up about the last one which is thumbnail creation SL Photoshop as a service so on YouTube everyone knows that title and thumbnail are the most important element you need to pay attention if you want to get views we already talked about it so many times and guess what you need to do to create a good thumbnail first you need to come up with a good idea and then second step is taking some pictures third step is edit the pictures and do some photoshop if necessary and guess what most creators wants to Outsource the step
one and step three so the IDE generation and the editing part personally I'm not a big fan of hiring someone to come up with ideas because I feel like then the thumbnails won't have my Personal Touch into them but some people Outsource it and it works like completely fine for them so it's not a big issue in my opinion I've been Outsourcing the editing part of some of my thumbnails recently because it saves so much time and whenever I want to get creative my brain is really good at like coming up with ideas but not
executing at them because I don't know how to use Photoshop I've been making all of my thumbnails using Kena so sometimes like my skills are not enough so I hire a thumbnail designer to edit them the good thing about the side hustle is you work based on a project and people usually charge between like $100 to $150 per thumbnail with unlimited revisions and if you learn how to do Photoshop depending on the thumbnail style you can create that in like a couple of hours so if you're not looking for a full-time freelancing option then I
think thumbnail design is a pretty good choice the way I found my thumbnail editor is I was searching on YouTube about thumbnail editing and he had a tutorial which was like quite easy easy to follow and I think it had like only a couple thousand views to be honest but I really liked it so I reached out to him by like his email uh in the description and we basically started you know working and it's also the way that I would recommend for people to kind of like showcase their work and promote their services so
if you want to do thumbnail design recreate some of Creator's thumbnails posted on Twitter Youtube Instagram Etc and even if the actual creator doesn't see that someone will and there is a high chance that they will hire you if they like the work you do I would also like put all the thumbnails that I've created in the past to my website to kind of like showcase the range that you do and there are a bunch of free sources on YouTube and also on skillshare and other like platforms to get started with Photoshop which I highly
recommend checking out if you're interested in becoming one so obviously since I'm a Creator all the side hustle ideas are somewhat related to content creation and to create our economy but it's a growing industry and day by day the evaluation is going higher too and it's the future of media I understand why people dislike social media creators because of like some creators and the reputation issue but I love Creator economy like it genuinely changed my life and I like working with Freelancers I like my job so if this video inspired you to start your own
side hustle we might have the chance to work together in the future like imagine how cool it would be if you started because of this video and a year later we work together I don't know it sounds cool to me I promise I'm a good employer like I'm not a bad person anyway enough rumbling and see you soon
