Many people out there are looking for ways to come up with some extra funds. This article will show you how to make extra money without picking up another job.
Become a Flipper!
There are many different ways to find items on the cheap that you can turn around and resell at a higher price. This is often referred to as “flipping.” There are many different ways to find cheap items. You can do this at yard sales, garage sales, flea markets, Craigslist and more. Then once you find a good deal you can turn around and flip the same items for a higher price on eBay, Amazon or the Facebook Marketplace.
Gary Vaynerchuk has made flipping very popular. He actually videos himself going to yard sales early on mornings during the weekend and shows what kind of haul he can come up with. He even shows what type or profit he makes from the stuff compared to how much he bought it for. Here is Gary V’s guide to flipping.
Flipping stuff is a very easy thing to get started with. All you need is a few bucks and get out there on Saturday morning, start pounding the pavement and make it happen.
Start a Business
Whoa, whoa, whoa! You were only looking to make a little extra money, not start a business! Well, there are a few small business opportunities that cost very little to start up and can result in getting cash in hand fast.
One of these examples is a lawn care business. This is a great opportunity because, let’s be honest, most people do not want to cut grass. Also, even if they don’t hate cutting grass, if someone knocks on your door and offers to cut your grass, how in the world do you say to no to that?
As far as building clients, odds are you can pick up your first few through asking family and friends. A simple Facebook status might be able to net you another client or two. Then you do a stellar job with your lawn care service and then you have a few more referrals trickle in. Whether you’re looking for an extra $50 or $500 a week, you can easily make either of those happen with a lawn care business. Here is a guide on how to start a lawn care business.
If you’re not into grass cutting, that’s understandable. Some other possibilities include dog walking, painting and freelance writing.
