What It's About
A listener wonders how to grow her face painting hustle.
Notes from Chris
Episode 1121
I have long had a goal of every listener who believes in the values of earning additional income, whether they want to quit their job or not, being able to earn at least $500/month. I like this number because it’s both obtainable and meaningful. You can’t live off $500/month, but for a lot of people, it dose make a significant difference in their lifestyle, especially if they’re trying to save or pay off debt. The other reason why I like starting with a goal like that is because once you can achieve a basic level of income from most project, it’s usually not that hard to increase it. It’s not twice as hard to go to $1,000/month, or four times as hard to go to $2,000, for example. There are two ways to grow, especially with a service like the one you’ll hear about in today’s listener question, which comes from a South Carolina woman who’s making money with facepainting, but would like to grow by selling more to her customers. What should she try?My side hustle is facepainting, and my question is about creating more income streams from this project. Other facepainters do things like making videos or offering courses or selling paint to other facepainters. But I was thinking of going a different way and selling more to my customers. I’ve thought about pairing up with other vendors like photographers and balloon twisters, and was wondering about other ideas you have.Listen to today's episode to learn more...
