5 Ways to Earn Income on Your Own Time

1)  Survey Junkie:  get paid for your feedback!  Fill out surveys, earn points, and turn those points into gift cards.  I linked their site above, I am not an affiliate but have used the site & earned rewards.

2)  Facebook or Instagram Reels Play Bonus:  and mostly YouTube and TikTok.  Platforms are paying creators based on their views/original plays.  I can only speak on the Facebook program as I've been a part of it for about 6 months at the time I'm writing this.

            These platforms want creators to publish original content because as you may notice while scrolling thru there is a lot of reshares of content.

3)  Direct Sales:  this option has been around for well over 100 years, a few tried & true you've probably heard of at one point in time...Avon, Tupperware, or Amway.  Now there are 100s of companies to represent.  Keep in mind it's going to be easiest to represent a company when you use the products daily, believe in their mission, and 

            I highlighted three important questions to ask yourself before enrolling with a company in this previous blog post.  You don't need to be an expert, learn & earn along the way.

            I've been a part of direct sales for over 6 years now, some come for a reason, season, or just the discount.  There's 1,000s of ways to work the business, pick the one you are comfortable with not the one your sponsor or leader tells you to do!

            This is the only option our the the five listed here which will give you training and a support network.  If you want to be your own kind of success at this be sure you are open to possibilities and take advice from others....but filter that advice accordingly ;) ;) 

4)  Pinterest Creator Rewards:  this is in beta testing & currently on invite only.  Pinterest is rewarding creators for their Idea Pins.  Create original, engaging content, & submit for their review.  They pay monthly on submitted pins which are approved.  Pay outs range from $45 to $250, and up!  They present different challenges each month for Creators to work towards.

            Pinterest does have some other monetization offers available so go explore to see if you qualify.  Either way, get creating on the App, and check your emails because you never know when they might send you an invite!

5)  Amazon Associate:  share your favorite items and use an affiliate link generated by amazon for others to shop thru.  When someone shops thru your link you intern earn a commission which can range from 1% to 20%.  Please keep in mind the majority is 4%.  There is no fee to get started.

Two final pieces of advice:

• 18 months from now, if you don’t add 10 new skills, you’ll become REPLACABLE + IRRELEVANT. Invest in yourself and become the very best YOU!
• From Warren Buffett, invest in good businesses with low capital needs.
