Wouldn’t it be great if you can make money from your hobbies? You’d be doing something you love and earning money on the side, too! In this article, I’m going to show you 6 popular hobbies that you can easily turn into a side hustle. 1. Writing If you love writing, then you’ve got quite a few side hustling options to consider. You can start a blog, you can do freelance writing (copywriting pays pretty well!), you can even write eBooks. You can even commission poems and sell these for a nice profit. 2.

Why You Should Write to One Person On Your Blog

People end up on your blog a number of ways. They may be referred to you by friends or colleagues, or reach one of your blog posts through an Internet search.

Too often we think our service or product is “for everyone.” And while it might be true that everyone could use your help, it’s simply not possible for you and your brand to appeal to everyone. Your prices might not be in line with what some can afford. Your branding might not resonate with others. Your story may not touch everyone with the same sense of urgency. And when you try to reach everyone, rather than narrowing your focus to your truly ideal client, you dilute your message, making it even less likely that those perfect customers will find you. But if you’re just starting out, it can seem an impossible task to know who your ideal client is. Start with these three points. 1. Gender. Is your audience male or female? While men and women might both read and enjoy your content—and even buy your products—you will …
