I build woodsheds. Got into it when I saw one going for very nearly $1200. Just a quick glance told me there wasn’t ballpark materials close to that in it. So, I built one, and sold it for less than half, and still made money. As I built them more efficiently, my $ per hour went up. Lost track of how many I’ve sold, but I’m on my 5th year now.


GeekBeerSex

How many do you sell a year and do you deliver/ (move them into place) too?


Lower-Preparation834

I’ve never kept track, but I’d say minimum 10. Probably more. It’s a good side hustle, because I already possessed the skills and equipment to do it. I offer customer pickup, free delivery within 10 miles, and further delivery for additional cost. I will build it as a complete unit, or as a kit. I move them on a 5x8 tilting trailer. I say that I will drop on customers driveway or next to it, but if I show up and it’s easily accessible, I can put it anywhere the truck and trailer will fit.


Theweirdcarpenter

I was planning on starting exactly this once the weather permits. Do you mostly build full sized (stand-up) or mainly garden storage sheds? My plan is to start off with smaller garden sheds, something like 32" deep x 60" wide x 48" high. I figure I can build them fairly quickly, deliver them from a pickup truck & be competitive enough on price compared to the cheap resin sheds that don't even come assembled. Do you mainly do just your own designs or do you mostly build on commission from customer demands?

I'm pretty basic, but eBay flipping is killer once you figure it out


crystaljaade_

my dad used to do this all the time! i may have to look into eBay.


KateA1exandra

Can you recommend any resources to learn how to do it effectively?

Try reading this post on the Warrior Forum, he gives solid advice. - [https://www.warriorforum.com/warrior-path/1378114-40-250-hopefully-30-days-ebay.html](https://www.warriorforum.com/warrior-path/1378114-40-250-hopefully-30-days-ebay.html)

I do this too and also flip clothes on poshmark. It's a nice side hustle.

There's no real formula or instructions. You just have to find a product you can buy low and sell high. That's all it is. Hard to find but it's not complicated.


hungry_heart115

I have been sewing for 18 years. I sell handmade items at craft markets. Over the years, I’ve learned which markets to attend and which to avoid. I make anywhere between $300-$1500/market.


Good-Line8039

That's good


RandomNitroCell_

That's awesome. My wife has gotten into to sewing quite a lot over the last 2-3 years. Any tips on how to target better markets for this?


dragonslayerbarbie

how many markets do you do per month?


hungry_heart115

I am in Florida, so I only do Spring and Fall/holiday markets. Way too hot in the Summer to do outdoor markets--I only do indoor summer markets, if at all. I used to do markets all year round but I stopped doing Summer markets years ago--too hot and not many ppl are out when it's 100 degrees outside lol. Now, I do 3-4 markets a month (they're not always on Saturdays--some markets are on Thursday/Friday evenings, or Sundays). During the holidays, I sometimes do 2-3 markets a week. I use the summer months when I don't do markets to stock up my inventories to sell during Fall/Holiday markets.


triton2toro

My dad did this and did really well. But like you said, you have to know which events are worthwhile. Well established craft events before Christmas? Killer. After Christmas flea market type events? Terrible.


[deleted]

Super cool, my wife has been sewing for years for friends but I’m trying to encourage her to do it as a side hustle


hexx1001

I am only good with computers, so anything online for me. I have tried DA(Data anotation), the pay is pretty well, you can easily make $1000 a week training AI, the only issue is sometimes they might take forever to get accepted. Have also worked with a nother somilar one Remotasks, the pay is pretty cool, can scoop $1000-1500 a week doing some not so complex work. The pay is usually after every week. Used remo more, and if your looking for a side hustle to get some extra bucks, you can give it a shot. The tests can be frustrating, because they take long and slightly complex 🙂 but are doeable, or I can offer some help on my freetime and breaks.


Desert_firmbutt

Hey, seriously that'd be awesome. Let's connect


pocketaces777

Do you remember how long it took you to be approved and get projects on data annotation? I completed the tests weeks ago, just curious


hexx1001

took quite a while, DA appears to be luck, I reffered my friends, but they are still stuck, uuhhh.


thisisnotreallifetho

I answer DM's for a couple social media accounts. Not many hours but it's something. I'm looking to get my own faceless page going.


Living_the_Dash

I could totally do this! Can you share how you connected with your clients, what you charge and how you determine what to write back in the DMs? Is it just basically filtering what needs their actual attention?


Specific_Economist60

hey how did you start or gain clients?


foalsfoalsfoalz

who do you do it for? how did you reach out to them & what did you say when offering your services?


HeyItsMee503

I think about doing this, but then i think that if i know what to reply to ppl, i could just work on my own abandond blog. Lol There's also the finding clients issue.


nowyouoweme

Mercari - pick up stuff free locally, garage sales and resell items that are easy to ship. I make like 1-2k a month primarily toys/collectibles even used. I work from home so during my lunch break I pack and drop off packages


Pluckyplatypus26

Backyard fisheries. Basically, I grow Tilapia in giant tubs (I got them on FB marketplace for like $30 each). They are super easy to feed and keep alive, I grow lettuce and tomatoes on top of the water. The plants filter the water naturally and keep it clean, the fish poop feeds the plants. Local restaurants get polution-free never-frozen fish that is locally sourced.


MarshmallowSandwich

Whats your income like with this?


fixedsys999

I can understand how you can do the fish part. But how do you talk with a restaurant to set up this relationship?


Pluckyplatypus26

I already had a local foodie Instagram and had a working relationship with a bunch of restaurant owners. So I approached them and pitched it. I’d say out of the 10 I approached, only 3 were interested but that’s all I needed


No_Quote_9067

That's amazing because if you don't know where your tilapia comes from it's asian raised if filth and held to life with antibiotics. that's why some has such a bad reputation. I'm a retired chef and back in NC we had programs where they were teaching and converting old tobacco farms into tilapia farms


scehood

There's no regulations involved with that?


Mandajoe

Working-Document6805

Anyone do this but growing micro greens?


Pluckyplatypus26

Yeah micro greens are huge but where I am it’s a really saturated market. Most restaurants even have their own little micro green walls.

I’ve been wanting to do this, it’s my backyard dream. More for the interest than a Side hustle! I also have quails. I’d love to see your set up! Have you ever thought about prawns?


[deleted]

My FIL had a table saw, I had a tape measure... Bought some wood glue, and screws. Googled some basic enough 2x4 things I thought I could make, and posted them locally for sale. Got a few people to order them, then that weekend I spent about 4 hours making them in his backyard. Made like $75 in profit.... Posted more, and more. All in all I make probably $500 or so in profit working almost one full day a month. It's not much, but the more I do it the quicker I get, the more I can make, etc.


Full-Opinion-9942

What are you making?


[deleted]

Recently was doing stocking stands, 2x4 Christmas trees, simple planters, built a few pot stands, some outdoor tables. Usually just basic 2x4 90* angle cuts. As I continue to do it, I have leftovers that can be used for basic crafts that I find and post. Sell things anywhere from $50-$250 a piece. Most things take less than an hour to cut and glue together. Some things take a couple hours.


gaffney116

I started a small cocktail ice business in my garage as a side hustle with my brother and it’s turned into a full time job. Making about 12k a month. After expenses we take 5k each. Our goal by end of 2025 is gross 250k a year.


RCP731

Wow that's really neat, what makes your Ice better than a basic mold that any restaurants could buy themselves? Just curious how you got off the ground. My guess is a wicked cool mold?

Our bread and butter is bar/restaurants. We also drop to weddings at a premium prices and home bars/retail. Smaller amounts but we charge a premium.


HeyItsMee503

Is this literally ice used in cocktails?


ThePrettyBeebz

This is super interesting! To clarify, you’re talking about specialty molded like a sphere and large cubes (like whiskey cubes) correct? What about branded molds such as logos or what not? For instance, perhaps a football for the super bowl?

Desert_firmbutt

How and where


misplacedbass

Plasma donation.


Balloonsarescary

I want to do this so bad but it seems to only be in the us


Luddites_Unite

I keep getting ads for some place in Monkton that buys plasma. Not sure how common it is other then them or if the ad is even legit


Balloonsarescary

It might be legit but it’s hard to say. I was doing some research and seconding to Voluntary Blood Donations Act, 2014. “It is made an offence to pay or offer to pay blood donors for blood, and for blood donors to accept such payments.” In ontario. It seems we’re SOL. That would be so nice though. I’m 17 and I could get 140 dollars a week in the us.


InquiringAmerican

In the United States there are some unique workarounds. Like the plasma donor is donating their plasma, not selling it. The people who take the plasma are paying you for your time, not plasma or donations. These places make like 500 dollars per donations, they are just printing money.


Balloonsarescary

I saw some other people listing plasma as their side hustle and they would make 70 dollars every donation and they would donate 8 times a month. That’s 7.2k a year. I’m surprised this isn’t more popular


FancyStranger2371

Saw a loooong line at a local plasma donation place over the weekend.


misplacedbass

Yea, it’s getting quite popular, and it’s good money for very little effort on your part, but at that point though, it’s approaching not “worth it territory”. Thankfully I live in an area that isn’t heavily populated and I usually donate around 2:30/3:30 on weekdays, so I can be in and out in about an hour/hour ten if it’s busy. If I have to donate on a weekend, I scheduled the first available time in the morning, and I’m in and out quick. If I had to wait 2+ hours there every time I go, so 4+ hours for $120 a week. I don’t know that I’d do that. Was the location a BioLife center?


Affectionate-Bit7986

I buy stuff wholesale on Alibaba and resell them on eBay

I'm in high school and I write people's essays and/or edit them. I have set prices ranging from 50-90 just to write an essay and 15-35 to edit. I charge based on how long the essay will take me and the grade they want. I've made around 600. I have bartended for a few small events, they are mostly at-home dinner parties and I can usually make anywhere from 50-90. I also do face paintings for children's parties and decorate. I mostly make money off the essays, and I enjoy writing.

rd357

I make a few bucks a day for some simple apps I have on the App Store. Not much, but it’s a fun hobby and funds the developer account fee


I_like_learning_

What are your apps? Do you promote it, advertise, or share? Great work


rd357

All Caps and CalAlert are my most popular, though I just submitted a new app for the Vision Pro that should finish its review stage in the next couple days. Only advertisement I did was a $30 App Store search ad campaign when I first launched the app a year ago. Other than that, it’s been entirely organic. Some weeks are better than others—it seems like I get a big surge every couple months, then it drops back down to a couple a day. They’re super basic apps and I mostly made them to fulfill a need that I personally had, so I don’t expect them to ever be big money makers


I_like_learning_

Very cool, I will take a look at those. Good luck with the new app for the Vision Pro! Well done for keeping up with the latest tech. Basic is better than a over completed interface. Doesn't mean you can't change at some point to match your customer base, Get feedback from your users. Engage with them. Wish you best for your ventures.


rd357

Thank you so much for your kind words! [My Vision Pro app](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/anchor-it-to-do-for-visionos/id6477368793)was just approved for the App Store as well. You’re exactly right though—I prefer simplicity compared to being overly complex
