It's always a good idea to have multiple streams of income incase one area declines whether do to the economy or circumstances out of your control. These are different ways I make income (some passive income) and I hope sharing will give you some ideas!
RENTAL PROPERTY/AIRBNB
Turn your current home into a rental, allowing renters cover the mortgage and use the additional income to either pay off the property early or help pay your new mortgage, or other bills. If you don’t have another property, you can rent out your place during popular months like Super Bowl weekend if your city hosts and make extra cash
SELL ITEMS ON EBAY OR ETSY
You might have items around your home that you can sell, clothing, furniture, it’s just sitting there. Or, you can buy discounted designer clothing at say, Goodwill or a discount basement, and sell it on eBay for a higher price.
IDEA: If you aren’t wanting to run a store all the time, have a garage sale and make it all in a weekend.
STOCK DIVIDENDS
Buy stock from companies that give a dividend return. You can use these dividends to buy more stock or use the cash for something else.
RENT YOUR HOME FOR PHOTOSHOOTS
Own a cute home? You can list your space on Home Studio List where photographers can look for local homes they can rent hourly. You can keep the rental space to specific rooms or just the backyard only.
LOOK FOR A SIDE HUSTLE
Try photography, building websites, selling items you make on Etsy, party planning, yard work, educating others, or coaching. You could also organize homes, baby sit, be an Uber driver or grocery delivery.
TIP: Share this new adventure with your community and network, starting with your Facebook friends!
SELL EVERGREEN CONTENT OR STOCK PRODUCTS
You can sell stock images if you are a photographer on websites for extra money, create presets and sell them, or a workshop.
AFFILIATE MARKETING
If you have a website, consider signing up for affiliate programs so you can get a kick back on purchases, like Amazon Associates. You can also choose display ads on your website - using GoogleAds or AdSense.
