    $1000s in Profit Buying Low and Selling High: Flea Market Flipping Case Study (Greatest Hits Collection)
    Sep 5 2024
    Want to scale back on your day job? Want to travel more, and spend more time with your family? That’s exactly what Stacy Gallego has been able to do thanks to her part-time flipping business. What’s cool is that this income stream was actually inspired by a former side hustle show guest, Rob “the flea market flipper” Stephenson, who we last heard from in episode 298. Stacy is one of Rob’s star students, and I’ve loved watching her share some of her sales results for quite a while. In just two years, Stacy has gone from flipping her first item to hitting $10,000 in sales in a month. The ability to find profit in your hometown is one I think is really valuable in recession-proofing your own income. If that appeals to you, I encourage to you check out Rob and his wife Melissa’s free training to learn more. And if you're ready to enroll in Flipper University, use promo code FLIP100 for $100 off either course option.

    627: From $30/hr to $300/hr: The Software Consulting Playbook
    Aug 29 2024
    This episode is all about making use of the Piggyback Principle — why it's easier to fill demand than to create it from scratch. Just like how kids would rather get a piggyback ride than walk because it's easier. The same is true in business — this strategy allows you to ride the wave of success software products are experiencing to catch that rising tide and get better, faster results with less work. To help illustrate this, I connected with Kristi DaSilva from DaSilvaLife.com. DaSilva Life helps small businesses build success by setting up and integrating two popular software tools, HoneyBook and ClickUp, into their workflow and operations. This earns her thousands of dollars per project along the way. Tune in to Episode 627 of The Side Hustle Show to learn: how to use the Piggyback Principle to build on what's already popular how to combine software with consulting or services to add value how to guide your audience with clear calls to action in every piece of content Full Show Notes: From $30/hr to $300/hr: The Software Consulting Playbook New to the Show?

  • 624: The 10 Most Profitable Side Hustles

    624: The 10 Most Profitable Side Hustles
    Aug 15 2024
    One question I get all the time is, "What are the most profitable side hustles?" Well, there are a couple ways to look at profitability. First, there's profit margin — how much of every dollar actually flows to your bottom line after expenses. Then there's raw profit – like Walmart making $10-15 billion a year, but on $500-600 billion in sales. Low margins, but HUGE volume. But in this post, we're gonna focus mostly on higher-margin, lean operation side hustles. Let's dive in! Full Show Notes: The 10 Most Profitable Side Hustles New to the Show?
