What if you could turn a teenage sports annoyance into a $100k business while juggling school, sports, and everything else that comes with being 15? Harrison Nott has done exactly that. Starting at just 13 years old, Harrison built CoolTowel into a business projected to hit £100,000 (about $130,000) in revenue this summer alone. The spark came from a simple problem: getting overheated and uncomfortable while playing squash. Harrison saw an opportunity in the cooling towel market that barely existed 3 years ago.

What if you could turn brand partnerships into serious income, even with just hundreds of followers? Justin Moore, founder of Creator Wizard and author of Sponsor Magnet, is back to show us exactly how creators are landing four-figure deals without massive audiences. We're talking about tapping into that $480 billion creator economy pie — and you don't need a million followers to get your slice. This episode covers what brands really care about (hint: it's not your follower count), how to find the right decision makers, and how to structure deals that keep brands coming back for more.

You know I love a good rental side hustle with recurring revenue and strong ROI. But in this example, there's no equipment to buy, no delivery logistics to deal with, and no tenants' trash in your place, which leads to some really strong margins. John Michael from TownRankSEO.com started this journey just this past February. He is a longtime Side Hustle Show listener who recently started building and renting out simple local websites. Websites are digital real estate. And if the location is right — namely, if it shows up at the top of Google — that could be worth quite a bit to the right tenant. Tune in to Episode 693 of the Side Hustle Show to learn: How to research profitable local niches for website rental What it takes to build and rank these sites quickly Creative ways to find business owners who need leads The unexpected SEO consulting opportunities that emerged Want more?

How does a YouTube channel with less than 300 subscribers generate 6-figures a year? In Joshua Lisec's case, he does it by answering targeted questions, and selling high-value services to those viewers. Joshua is an award-winning, celebrity-recommended, #1 international bestselling Certified Professional Ghostwriter. He's also a TEDx speaker, a novelist, and has ghostwritten over 45 books for entrepreneurs, executives, and public figures. Over the last few years, Joshua's freelance work has gone from $1.67 an hour on his first writing project, to over $500,000 a year! (Long-time listeners might remember him; Joshua appeared on the show in late 2016. In that classic Side Hustle Show episode, we talked through the OPA strategy -- tapping into Other People's Audiences -- to sell your services.) In this episode, we're diving into another innovative marketing strategy involving YouTube. It's one you can apply to your own business right away. Tune in to hear Joshua explain: How he's generating high value leads on YouTube with less than 300 subscribers The tools and techniques he's using to optimize his YouTube videos to rank well How he bundled individual low paying freelance gigs for a high-value service Full Show Notes: How To Get Clients From YouTube: The Surprising 6-Figure Strategy New to the Show?

What if you could build a website that earns thousands per month in relatively hands-off income while traditional SEO struggles? That's exactly what Frey Chu has done with his directory-style websites. While article-based content sites have been getting hammered by Google updates, directory content has remained resistant to these changes and continues to generate that elusive semi-passive income online. Frey built his first directory in the thrifting space, and six months later discovered it was getting 1,000 visitors per day. He quickly monetized with ads and made $1,200 that first month without doing much of anything. Today, Frey earns a few thousand dollars monthly from his directory portfolio at ShipYourDirectory.com and teaches others how to replicate his success. Tune into Episode 692 of the Side Hustle Show to learn: How to find profitable directory niches using data-driven research Where and how to collect massive amounts of location data at scale Proven monetization strategies beyond just display ads Marketing tactics that actually work for directory sites Full Show Notes: $2500/mo with Online Directories New to the Show?

Want a roadmap to build time-leveraged cash flow and long-term wealth without the complexity of traditional business ventures? Dustin Heiner is back on the show to share his proven strategy: buy one profitable investment property per year for 10 years. It might sound easier said than done, but Dustin has retired early from the cash flow of his 30+ rental properties and now helps others replicate his success at MasterPassiveIncome.com. Dustin treats real estate as an "income building" business, not speculation. He's built systems that generate consistent monthly cash flow while building equity — and his 16-year-old daughter just bought her first property using these same strategies. (Check out Dustin's free real estate investing starter course and learn more about his proven systems.)

What if you could build a systematic reselling business that averages $200+ per item, gets inventory for free, and has the potential to become a full-time income? Meet Matt and Hannah Lee, who've been doing exactly that for the last eight years through ShareTown, a platform that connects return item pickup reps with direct-to-consumer brands. Unlike the treasure hunt of liquidation pallets, this is a more systematic approach with lower transaction volume but higher profit per item. But these items are big, bulky furniture, mattresses, and exercise equipment that require proper transportation and storage. For the last three years, Matt and Hannah have turned this into a full-time income, flipping 40-60 items per month and averaging $200-250 profit per item.

What if you could turn 10 acres of rural land into a million-dollar hospitality empire while working a full-time job? Garrett Brown from Cameron Ranch Glamping strategically "land hacked" his way into a multi-six-figure operation that's now worth $1.5 million and generates nearly $100,000 per year from a single geodome. By day, he teaches short-term rentals at BiggerPockets, but his real wealth-building happens through his glamping side hustle with $400+ nightly rates without the overhead of a traditional hotel.

What if you could help local businesses get more customers while building a six-figure recurring revenue business from anywhere in the world? Eric Dingler from EricDingler.com runs a successful digital agency, In Transit Studios, while traveling with his family across 20+ countries. But if he was starting over today, he'd focus on one simple service: local SEO. While traditional SEO gets eaten alive by AI and Reddit, local search remains a goldmine. When someone searches "barber near me" or "pizza delivery," Google still shows real local businesses — not AI-generated answers.

What if you could turn something destined for the landfill into a thriving business that's now sold in luxury stores like Selfridges and Bloomingdale's? Charlotte Liebling noticed a heartbreaking problem while volunteering at a charity shop: donated stuffed animals were going straight into the bin or being sold as dog toys, despite the love and memories attached to them.

$500/day doing work you love? Let's talk about it. In today's topic, we'll look at the delicious business of being a personal chef, with someone who's been doing it for 25 years and turned her skill into a six-figure solopreneur business. Jessica Leibovich, from ChefJessica.com, didn't start off aiming for this. She was working in catering, young, overworked, and — like a lot of us at some point — burnt out. But one suggestion changed her life: "Have you ever thought about being a personal chef?" she was asked. So not only was she good at it, but her first client paid her more in a day than she used to make in a week. And she's been doing it ever since and sharing it with her students through her Prosperous Personal Chef's Success Suite.

Cody Berman is no stranger to selling digital products. He's known in the side hustle world as the "printable guy" and co-founder of Gold City Ventures, but when Internet skeptics told him the Etsy market was "too saturated now" compared to when he started in 2018, Cody accepted the challenge.

#294 In today's episode, we will discuss 15 side hustles that you can start today with little to no money! I've never really loved the term "side hustle" I don't love the word hustle and don't buy into hustle culture. And the word side hustle to me has always implied something you kinda did on the side and didn't take too seriously. But my perspective on this term has changed somewhere recently. A few months ago I started listening to a podcast called The Side Hustle Show with Nick Loper. The combination of hearing stories from Nick's guests on different side hustles they have started and interviewing and working with others who have started side hustles of their own either as a way to start their business or as a way to help make some extra income on the side has caused me to be more open to this term and open to the fact that not everyone is wired like me. And for some people that means starting something on the side that can either support their family for a season or later on turn into that thriving scalable business with systems and processes which is what I REALLY love! BUT you gotta start somewhere and for many, that means starting something on the side... In today's episode, Brien Gearin interviews the Kind of Side Hustle himself, Nick Loper, and they go into depth on 15 side hustles that you can start today! This has been one of my favorite episodes so far and I got a ton of value out of it personally and I have no doubt you will as well!

"Changing the world with chess" and making $100,000 per year on the side. That's the story of today's guest, Jeff DiOrio from EliteChess.net. Jeff went from earning $17/hr working in summer camp chess programs teaching kids how to play chess, to running his own camps and earning five times as much. He then transitioned to an online recurring membership model, in part due to the pandemic, while also keeping the in-person coaching side of his business alive. Jeff's approach to growing his student numbers so rapidly? Organic growth through giving to charities and delivering a value-driven service, all while doing something he loves—teaching chess.

Back in the day, you needed someone technical (or paid someone technical) if you wanted to build any kind of software. Today, with the popularity of AI tools, not so much.

I called the Amazon Influencer Program the easiest money I'd ever made online. I made $100 in my first month, over $1200 in my first year, and last year, still made over $700 doing almost nothing. Set it and forget it. The basic premise with this branch of Amazon Associates is to create short product review videos, and earn a small commission when your review convinces someone to buy. You do need some level of social following and engagement to get accepted, but after that, you really don't need to drive your own traffic. Amazon posts your review videos on the relevant product pages. In this episode, we check in with Tyler Christensen from TylerChristensen.com — a serial side hustler, teacher, and dad of four who's lately been earning around $5k a month on the side from his product reviews.

Why go through the trouble of building your own cash flow when, with a little determination and a little hustle, you can insert yourself into some income streams that are already happening? That's what Link Moser from linkmoser.com and his web design agency windhill.com have done, not once, not twice, but 5 different times, generating $200k a year in semi-passive income. He was on the show in 2022, where he explained how he makes money with a real estate lead generation site, NHFineHomes.com, where a single referral can be worth tens of thousands of dollars. But today, we're diving into a different strategy: business acquisitions.

Service businesses can get a bad rap. After all, there are clients to deal with, and actual labor involved in fulfillment. They're just not as glamorous as other more “passive” income models. But you should know that more Side Hustle Show guests started with a service-based business model than any other. This week's guest has a unique approach to service businesses -- one that doesn't rely on your skills as the expert. Tyler Gillespie has built two successful service businesses and had a clean exit from both -- the last being just 13 months from startup to sale.

It's 2025, and the line between reality and science fiction is getting more and more blurry every day. In this episode, I sit down with someone I've never met, but they know me pretty well. He even kind of sounds like me in an eerie sort of way. I was curious how well today's AI models could pretend to be someone else, given a few simple prompts. The result is this chat with Robo-Nick, my AI alter ego. Let's see how well Robo-Nick answers these questions, plus my real thoughts about them. (This episode relied heavily on ElevenLabs to generate the voice for Robo-Nick.)

In 2022, Summer Fisher discovered the world of renting out dresses. "Oh, well, I have all these dresses. Let me just put one up," she told Yahoo Finance. Now with a streamlined inventory of around 200 pieces, she made $150,000 last year using what she calls a "double-dip profit strategy" — renting dresses multiple times before selling them for more than she paid. (Check out her free masterclass at theprofitcollective.co/RookieResellerMistakes.) Tune in to episode 652 of The Side Hustle Show to learn: Summer's favorite brands to rent out.

I'm joined by Nick Huber, co-founder of Storage Squad and host of The Sweaty Startup podcast.

I invited Nick on The Side Hustle Show to help walk us through his "sweaty startup" framework.

Throughout the decade he spent running the footwear comparison site, he consistently experimented with other income streams, including freelancing, affiliate marketing, and self-publishing.

Why should your first online business be a directory? This is one of the most overlooked yet potentially lucrative side hustles out there. I've got a little bit of experience in this space (I actually built a virtual assistant directory years before), so this is something close to me. But my experience is nothing like John Rush's from JohnRush.me, who is a master at quickly building and marketing these little side projects. He has launched 30 directories in just the past year, managed to monetize 10 of them, and even sold one (AllGPTs.co) for a sweet five-figure exit. (If you want more resources, check out John's full Directory Guide or his no-code builder at Unicorn Platform.)
