From hating photo booths to seeing an opportunity in the market and taking her photo booth side hustle to 6-figures in 18 months…
That’s the story of today’s guest, Cat Bloch.
Cat told me you would never “catch me dead” using a photo booth at a party.
That was until she came across a modern photo booth, and it completely changed how she looked at this popular wedding venue and Gala attraction.
Can you really make money flipping phones?
To find out, I sat down with pro cell phone flipper Jeff Duhon from the Smart Flippers Facebook group. In a typical week, Jeff resells 20-30 used iPhones with a target profit of $100 per flip.
If if you did half that volume, you could be earning $1000 a week.
Struggling to come up with a side hustle or business idea?
To help get the creative idea juices flowing, I’ve invited Joel Hansen, founder of Kern.al on the show.
Kern.al is kind of like Reddit or Product Hunt, but for business ideas that don’t exist yet.
Just a few minutes on the site definitely sparked some creativity for me so I encourage you to check it out.
Like it or not, we’re all marketers….
..whether we’re selling ourselves in a job interview, pitching our product or service, or trying to get people to pay attention to our content — we’re all marketers.
And you should know this is one of my all-time favorite topics.
At the end of nearly every episode of The Side Hustle Show, I ask my guests for their “#1 tip for Side Hustle Nation.”
There’s always a great variety of responses, and I wanted to take some time today to go through some of my favorites from the past 50-ish interviews.
This has become an annual tradition on the show, which is now almost 8.5 years old and recently passed 17 million lifetime downloads.
Where there’s pain, there might also be profit…
That was the case for today’s guest, Pete Mockaitis. Pete was seeing some traction with his podcast, the HowToBeAwesomeAtYourJob Podcast, but was struggling to keep up all the off-air tasks — the show notes, the editing, the social media.
For Pete Mockaitis, that pain turned into AwesomePros.co, a niche drop-servicing company that he co-founded with Brian Kearny and is now doing $10k a month in recurring revenue.
For the last couple years, Pei was my favorite cash back app.
After you installed it and linked your cards, you’d earn automatic extra cash back at 100,000 places where you were already spending money.
And this was on top of the credit card rewards you’re already earning! But then it changed significantly for the worse. Read on to see what sucks now and my top Pei app alternatives.
One challenge that most new businesses face is the awareness problem – nobody knows you exist.
To help erase this problem, I’ve invited Dustin Lien from JumpXmarketing.com back on the show.
Dustin first appeared on episode 251 back in 2017. Back then, he was just ramping up JumpX after shutting down his own physical product business.
Ever thought about turning your expertise in an everyday subject or topic into an online business?
For Delilah Orpi, her expertise was on taking care of her curly hair — and starting as a side hustle, she turned that into an online business earning around $8k a month at HolisticEnchilada.com.
Delilah has some interesting strategies she used to grow her audience, build her email list, diversify her multiple income streams — all of which can be applied to a topic of your choosing.
How do you make money on eBay?
Buy low, sell high, repeat.
The formula is simple, but that doesn’t mean it’s easy!
To help me learn more about selling items for a profit on eBay, I turned to serial side hustler Daniella Flores. With the help of several part-time businesses, she and her wife have been able to pay off $31,000 in debt in the last two years.
