1. Do user testing tasks online

User testing is a form of research that gets real people to interact with websites and apps so designers and developers can improve how user-friendly everything is. Platforms like UserTesting pay ‘users’ (that’s you) to help do tests. All online from the comfort of your home.

How to get started: Apply to join a platform like UserTesting. Answer screening questions to get matched with opportunities. Browse jobs and complete tests to make money online. UserTesting is the most popular platform, but you can Google ‘UserTesting alternatives’ to find more.

 

2. Teach English to kids online

Online tutoring combines the joy of teaching with the convenience of working from anywhere, offering a rewarding experience as you help students achieve their academic goals.

How to get started: Get TEFL certified. Prepare your workspace. And apply to become a teacher on one of hundreds of popular platforms. TEFL has a great page that tells you everything. Plus, it lists dozens of popular online English teaching platforms where you can find work.

3. Start an online shop

Launching an online shop is an excellent side-hustle. And it’s never been easier.

How to get started: First, do your research and decide what you’re going to sell. Then, give your brand a name and use Canva to design a logo or hire a designer on Upwork or LinkedIn. Next, create or order your first products and set up your online shop. Shopify is the easiest platform to start on. Finally, do regular marketing to get your product out there and sell it.

 

4. Sell products on Takealot

Apply to become a seller on Takealot. It’s South Africa’s leading online retailer and has over 3 million online shoppers. 

How to get started: First, you’ll need a product. Then you can apply to sell on Takealot. If your application gets approved then you’ll go through onboarding. After that… It’s time to sell. Keep in mind that Takealot charges monthly subscription fee of R400* per seller account/month.

5. Rent out or lease items on online platforms

Using platforms like Gumtree, you can list anything that someone may want to rent and rent it out as a side hustle. Tools, decor, event equipment, cars, and generators are just a few popular items that you could rent out.

How to get started: Do you have anything to rent out? If not, then you may need to invest to get started. Take inventory of your assets. Take photos. Write an ad. And share your items-for-rent on platforms like Gumtree,  relevant Facebook groups, or your own website.

 

6. Sell crafts, art, furniture, and more on Etsy

Etsy is an ideal platform for creatives looking to turn their hobby into a profitable side hustle. The platform offers a global marketplace where you can sell handmade goods, vintage items, crafts, and more.

How to get started: Brainstorm what you can sell on the platform. Do some research to see what’s popular. Think about what you can make. And offer your own take on something that people already love buying. Sign up and start selling.

 

7. Create and sell courses online

If you’ve got valuable knowledge and either a good online reputation or outstanding marketing skills… then you can sell courses and make a lot of money. Take Justin Welsh for example, he’s one of the highest earning course-sellers in the world. Making over $5 million in the last five years.

How to get started: To sell online courses, you’ll need a way to get your course in front of potential students. Using social media to build a reputation is one way to get it out there. Another is to run ads. Either way, you’ll need to prove that you know what you’re talking about before people will buy. Establish a reputation and create your course content. Then, use platforms like Teachable, Maven, Gumroad [or their alternatives] to make it easy for anyone to buy.

 

8. Manage e-commerce stores for owners

You have to know your way around e-commerce platforms for this one. But you can always learn. Online shops have a lot going on and most need an extra hand doing some of the admin, marketing, and management.

How to get started: Get familiar with popular e-commerce platforms. Shopify (get certified) and WooCommerce are the two biggest. Find a way to prove that you’re right for the job. Whether that’s with a CV, certifications, case studies, or whatever. Then, go find work or clients on platforms or by reaching out to shops.

 

9. Create and sell digital products

There’s one really compelling reason to sell digital products—you only have to make it once. It’s possible to make good money, since digital products can be sold an infinite number of times. The hard part is getting people to buy. Common examples are products like templates, tools, ebooks, or games and virtual goods. 

How to get started: The best approach depends on what you’re selling. First, consider what kinds of digital products you can create—that people actually want. Consider your expertise to create something unique or check platforms like Envato or Creative Market for inspiration. Templates for popular tools work really well—things like Notion templates or Figma templates. Then dig deeper and find out how others are selling the same type of product.

10. Start a YouTube channel (and monetize it)

It’s not too late to start a YouTube channel. And YouTube can help unlock lots of different income opportunities. Ad revenue, affiliate commissions, sponsors, and even your own product sales.

How to get started: Get to know the YouTube economy. Learn more about how it all works and how to monetise your channel. Then, start creating content, be patient, and keep posting consistently. Most channels don’t make any money. And the ones that do, only start making money after several months or years. Google has a free course about earning ad revenue on the platform.

 

11. Start a newsletter (and monetize it)

Newsletters can make a lot of money. Especially when the audience starts to grow. You make money by writing a daily, weekly, or monthly email newsletter. Then as it becomes popular, you can start selling ads on your newsletter.

How to get started: Chenell Basilio writes Growth in Reverse. Check out her content. Matt McGarry is another useful resource. He’s worked with popular newsletters like The Milkroad and The Hustle. Check out their content and subscribe to newsletters you like so you can emulate what’s working. The Open Letter is a great South African startup newsletter.

 

12. Become an Instagram Influencer

A popular Instagram channel can turn into a brand and a source of extra income. Influencers make money through sponsored posts, brand partnerships, and affiliates. (Just to name a few.)

How to get started: Give it some thought. What kind of influencer are you best suited to become? Or what are you interested in? There’s no one-size-fits-all approach to becoming an IG influencer. What matters is learning how to utilise the platform to engage and grow your following. You have to learn how to play the game.

 

13. Start a blog (and monetize it)

Blogging can be a great side hustle. You’ll need to post regularly and can get your blog in front of readers. Then, you can monetise your blog to start making extra money.

How to get started: Choose your niche and launch your blog. Use WordPress to build a website or a platform like Medium if you’re less technical. With a WordPress blog, you can use SEO to rank in Google, get readers, and start earning ad revenue with Google Adsense. If you use Medium, then you can build a community to get more readers and monetise your popular posts with affiliate links.

 

14. Start a podcast (and monetize it)

In February, Spotify and Joe Rogan renewed their partnership. The new deal is estimated to be worth $250 million. That proves podcasts are valuable. If you have a great personality, interesting perspective, or valuable knowledge, then you could start a podcast.

How to get started: Choose a style or a niche. Invest in decent recording equipment. You don’t have to go overboard when you start. You can always upgrade later. Then record, publish, and promote—consistently! After getting some traction, you may have sponsors reach out or you can reach out to them.
