“How I bootstrapped a 6-figure e-commerce brand in its first year with zero ad spend.”
That was the subject line that Side Hustle Show Connor Meakin sent me that grabbed my attention and earned him a spot on this week’s show.
The brand Connor is talking about is BluebirdProvisions.co, an organic bone broth, and bone broth powder company.
Today we’re geeking out on the awareness problem — how to spread the word about your business.
And we’re doing it in a way that will align with your style and your budget.
To help me out with this is a long-time Side Hustle Show listener. He’s a real estate investor, a handyman, and co-host of the HandyManProsRadioShow podcast, Larry Towner.
How does risk-free profit sound?
That’s the promise and the premise of the consignment business — getting paid to sell other people’s stuff.
To help school me on how it all works I’ve invited Megan Church from PineappleConsignment.com onto this week’s show.
What’s one thing people want?
They want to get great deals on great products, and for you as a side hustler, that spells a business opportunity to curate and disseminate those deals.
This is exactly what Side Hustle Show listener Camron Stover from HuntingGearDeals.com is doing.
Creating digital assets you can sell over and over again – that’s the passive income dream.
This is exactly what Rachel Jones at MoneyHackingMama.com has done by creating and selling downloadable printables on Etsy.
This year she’s averaging over $10,000 a month in sales, all while balancing a full-time job and two young kids.
Today’s guest, Matt Bochnak of HowToMotorcycleRepair.com, is one of my favorite examples of how you can dedicate part of your week to generating time-leveraged income.
This is Matt’s third time on The Side Hustle Show, and everytime we speak he’s made huge leaps forward with his business.
Matt first appeared on the show back in 2016 when he was making around $1,000 a month recording himself performing motorcycle repairs in his garage and selling digital products.
When the pandemic hit, Timmy Bauer from DinosaurHouse.com pivoted his business from being a traveling children’s book author to running a children’s book production company.
Timmy was enjoying working as a traveling children’s book author, but he was forced to change directions when schools started locking down and not allowing guests.
His story is the perfect example that you don’t always need to make a complete 180 if your business hits a wall.
From a $10,000 a month “blog” to a 7-figure “Media Company”, a lot can happen in five years.
Today’s guest is one of my most important real and virtual online business mentors — I’m always trying to pay attention and keep an eye on what Robert Farrington from TheCollegeInvestor.com is up to.
Fun fact: Robert was one of the very first guests on The Side Huslte Show back in 2013.
There are a million and one ways to make money online, but they almost always come down to helping other people.
Today’s guest, Kat Norton aka Miss.Excel, has been doing plenty of that. She’s reaching hundreds of thousands of followers as a spreadsheet influencer — you didn’t know there was such a thing, did you?
Kat started on TikTok in June 2020 and already has over 734k followers, she later branched out onto Instagram and has already built a following of more than 573k followers there, too.
People out there will pay for your skills, you just have to find them.
One person who’s done an excellent job of finding them over the last 9 months or so is Georgia Austin from WizardOfContent.com.
Georgia took her skill of writing, and despite a crowded world of other writers out there, did over $500k worth of work through the Fiverr platform last year, including $90k the month before we recorded.
