Side Hustles
Hello everyone,
I am someone who likes to try out new things and to keep up with trending hobbies or even earn a little extra cash. I joined TikTok a little over a year ago, I finally understood what everyone was talking about and why they like the app so much. Then, more and more I kept scrolling the more side hustles kept popping up to make extra cash on the side, which I thought was ludicrous/scams until I started trying them out for myself. I know a lot of Gen Z's are trying to get out of a typical work week with these side hustles and they all brag about making 10,000 dollars by just working three hours a day to nothing. As a millenial/zillenials I came from a generation where we can work our butts off and not get a whole lot from it, we all think that working five days a week is too much, but we still show up to work and do the best job where we can, even if our co-workers give 50% at our jobs. I thought "what is the harm in trying a side hustle myself?" especially if it costs me nothing other than a little bit of effort. The first side hustle I tried was selling notebooks off of Amazon, I got a lot of excitement from it and I was able to use my creativity towards making money. Amazon KdP offers you to publish empty notebooks, so onto Canva I went, and it took many tries to get the standards of size correct, once I got that down i kept making more and more copies of different notebooks. I kept checking my sales and I was receiving absolutely nothing, like actually nothing and I don't know if I was advertising it right or I could have done more. But this is what the sales looked like and still do:
