Start Off Side Hustle With $100 for Good Start

 These are the desperate people, but on the other hand these are the kinds of people who are focused on starting small

Everywhere you look as far as internet marketing is concerned, you have a lot of people saying how do I make 20 bucks in a day?

How do I make $100 bucks in a day?

I really don’t like these kinds of people. These are the desperate people, but on the other hand these are the kinds of people who are focused on starting small.

So if you just think about how you’re going to make your first dollar; how are you going to make just 10 bucks; how are you going to make 100 bucks instead of trying to think about how do I make $1,000 or $10,000.

That’s what we’re going to be talking about today, just that you need a quick 100 bucks to stay alive, not 1,000 bucks. You don’t need a bunch of money to get out of debt or pay your rent. You just need to make an extra $100 on top of what you already make at your day job or from something else. Maybe you already make some money online, but you want to make an extra 100 bucks. So the situation is that you just need 100 bucks — you don’t need to replace all your bills, just $100 where you have no list and no name recognition. And we’re going to want something quick; something that we can’t necessarily repeat over and over. We just want to make a quick 100 bucks in a day just to see if it’s possible.

But the bottom line, before I get into this — this isn’t going to be any kind of glamorous or anything like super cool or some kind of hidden trick. This is all going to be — a lot of it’s stuff that you would have thought of on your own and maybe a few other ideas that maybe you haven’t. But this isn’t going to be some secret black hat or some secret traffic tactic. The bottom line is don’t rely on the internet to make you a bunch of money. Get a job first. Have some kind of security before you try making this internet money.

The Quick Fix

So here the situation is this 100 bucks, it’s going to be the quick fix money. And the quick fix money is only stuff that will make someone else more money later. So for example, if you’re selling stuff at a loss on eBay or if you’re freelancing or writing articles or making a website for somebody and that other person’s going to make more money then they’ve paid you. There’s nothing wrong with that. To start out you want your quick money, but just know that this short term money is going to be more effort than the long term money so you’re going to have to do a lot of short term stuff and just get used to it and hate it enough to try to do the more high level stuff. But you’ve got to start at the bottom. You’ve got to start at the short term money, at least for a short while.

What to Ignore

So stuff we’re going to ignore: We’re going to ignore building a website, trying to get traffic, trying to learn a new skill, trying to do anything for yourself. Right now you need that emergency $100. You’re not going to be building any of your own business because you’ve only got a day. If you had a month or two months, sure you might want to try making a website on the side, but for now there’s no time for that. You could easily waste the whole day building a website that makes you no money, that brings you no traffic, or even build a website that only makes you 10 bucks. So just if we only have a 24 hour or an 8-hour period to get this $100, we’re not going to be trying to build our own business. We’re going to be building somebody else’s business.

If you’re in debt …

If you have debt, don’t rely on this 100 bucks to get you out of debt. Call these credit card companies and tell them you can’t pay on time. Tell them you need an extension because some of them will increase the lifetime of your loans and give you longer to pay it back, but in the end you’ll end up paying more, but you just have a longer period of time to pay it back. Or you can consolidate it and get a low interest type of thing. But you got to deal with your debt first. You can’t just pretend that you make a bunch of quick money and you’ll be able to pay off your debt and everything will be fine. Deal with the debt first all right? And don’t get in the same situation again. There’s a reason why you got into debt, and you don’t get into debt overnight. You keep charging and piling and piling it on, and before you know it you’ve gone too far. So don’t get in the same situation again after this. And this is the most important thing is that get rid of your debt, get a little bit of extra money every day, and just change your habits.

First idea: eBay

Okay, so the first thing that I think a lot of people would think of when trying to make $100 in a day is eBay. So if you have something around the house — things you don’t need, things in your attic, CD’s, an old phone, old clothes, whatever — sell it at a discount for what you originally got it for because you are desperate for this $100. If you can sell your car on eBay motors, if it’s that bad, if you’re in such a bad situation that you need to sell your car, then do it. And if you can take a picture, even with a camera phone or something, those ads with the picture and with the phone number always sell better. So that’s my first thought — without even thinking, the first thing that comes to mind is find something around the house that you don’t need and put it on eBay or put it on Craigslist or better yet both. Put the item on both things and see what sells.

But the only problem with this is that you probably won’t get any responses within a couple days. So that might not work, but if you’re really desperate and you add a low buy it now price, you might get lucky and get your $100 from $10 here, $5 here, and it will add up. So if you have old furniture, old clothes, old computer stuff, anything old that you no longer use. Or even something you do use, but you can bear to part with it just because you need this $100 so badly.

Freelancing

So if you don’t have the time for that, I would try freelancing. So you bid on freelancing jobs writing articles and go to the freelance sites. And yeah, the pay sucks, and yeah you probably will be busting your ass all of the 8 hours to get that $100 writing all these articles, but it’s possible. It’s very, very possible. I know a guy who makes $40 an hour writing articles as a freelancer, but he just got sick of the work.

If that doesn’t work, contact people in your inner circle who need videos, who need copywriting, or even a whole product. Maybe you have a half-finished product and you can sell it to someone. You can package it up so it looks just about finished, and you can sell it to someone and sell the rights away.

Ghostwriting

You could try ghostwriting. So you go to your friends on the internet — not your friends in real life, never go to them. Just go to your internet people and go to the freelancing sites, and try to get a few articles written. Or write an entire book for them. And the secret to getting a good rate and to getting paid what you want is you tell them you have three rates. You say, “The price I charge for the best possible content is $50 an article. The price people usually like to pay me is $15 an article, and the price for the low quality articles is $5 an article.” And most people aren’t going to pay that $5 an article because they don’t want to get crappy articles. And people don’t want to pay the $50 an article because it seems too high, but they’ll usually settle for the $15. You might have people who are just greedy for quantity, and they will give you the 5 bucks an article and then you can just crank out some really quick low-quality articles and not really put a lot of thought into them. And that’s no big deal, but what you want people to get to do is pay you the 15 dollars an article.
