We have heard it, read it, and seen others push for this goal. I am no different, in trying to build an income that can not only sustain my family for necessities, but also for the pleasures in life. Or maybe your end game is to fund your dream or starter business, create a cushion and savings. Whatever the case may be, this is not always an easy task for some to wrap their minds around.
In a lot of cases, getting a second job, part-time gig, or a weekend hustle, outside of your home, 9 –5, family, and other obligations is daunting or just not possible. That is when you have to use your other talents & resources.
The sayings: “Choose a job you love, and you will never work a day in your life.”
“Don’t aim for success, if you want it, just do what you love and believe in, and it will come naturally.”
These are true and can be applied to Monetizing your hobby/ hobbies. By definition, a hobby is an activity done regularly in someone's leisure time for pleasure. Why not try to capitalize on something that gives you joy, you are good at, already do regularly? This is the perfect step in creating another stream of income.
Research your hobby online... There is so much information at your fingertips. Start small and build your client base & brand. Use your existing network to help you branch out and spread the word.
Once you are feeling good and covering ground. Look into the business details that make you stand out. Build your BRAND. Logo, website, social media platforms. Use these tools to aid in monetizing what once was just a hobby and now your business.
