Side Hustle Review

12/07/2025

Something big is coming. And if you’re paying attention, you can already feel the shift. Social commerce—buying inside the app, through creators, with just a few taps—is becoming the new norm. Not tomorrow. Not “someday.” Now. It’s already happened in China. And the platforms here are racing to catch up. This kind of content? It’s going to be some of the best-performing stuff out there. Not because it’s trendy, but because it works. I’ve seen the ad spend. The ROI is wild. But let’s be real—it’s not for everyone. I’ve tried it. I personally don’t love making that kind of content. But I’d be lying if I said it doesn’t pay off when done right. The opportunity’s there. The question is: Are you going to learn how to ride the wave—or scroll past it? I go deeper in my podcast + newsletter. Links in bio.

🚨 I keep seeing creators say you can make thousands doing ‘Amazon reviews’—but let’s be real, they know exactly what they’re doing when they say that. 📌 What they want you to think: ✔ That you get paid for leaving star reviews on Amazon. ✔ That it’s super easy and doesn’t require effort. ✔ That anyone can do it instantly and start making money. 📌 What’s actually happening: ❌ You don’t get paid for leaving product reviews. ✅ You can get paid through Amazon Onsite Commissions—a program where you upload video reviews directly to Amazon product pages. ✅ If someone watches your video and buys the product, you earn a commission. 📌 Is it a real side hustle? Yes. But here’s what you need to know: ✔ You have to buy or own the product to make videos. ✔ Your videos need to be helpful and well-done to rank on product pages. ✔ Some people make $1,000s/month, but like anything, it takes work. 💡 I put together a FREE guide explaining exactly how this works—no paid course, no academy, just straight facts. If you want to start making money in the creator economy, check my bio. 💬 Have you heard about Amazon Onsite Commissions before? Drop a comment. 🚀

💰 Google will pay you $150 an hour! 💰 At least, that’s what they want you to think. But here’s the truth… Google Skillshop (👉 skillshop.withgoogle.com) is FREE and teaches skills like Google Ads, Analytics, and more. But just because you complete a course doesn’t mean you’re getting paid. Here’s the reality: ✅ You can get certified and gain valuable skills. ❌ But you still need clients or a job to make money from it. Beginners in digital marketing typically start at $20–$50/hr, and hitting $150/hr takes experience, proven results, and a strong client base—not just a certificate. So before you fall for the hype, know what it really takes.

Thinking of starting a vending machine business? Let’s break it down👇 1️⃣ Find a location first! Don’t buy a machine until you’ve secured a spot. Locations are the hardest part—think gyms, apartments, Airbnb hosts, or offices. Most places will want 10-25% of your sales or a flat $50-$100 monthly fee. 2️⃣ Buy the machine. A used one costs ~$2,000, or go new for $3,500. Make sure it takes credit cards, or add a card reader for $300. 3️⃣ Stock up. Snacks or drinks will run you ~$300 to fill up your machine. Buy wholesale from Costco, Sam’s Club, or Smart & Final. 4️⃣ Don’t forget logistics. Gas for restocking, wholesale memberships, and insurance can add $100+ monthly. 💰 Upfront cost? Around $33,000 if you’re looking to replace a $70K/year income. You’ll need 15 machines making ~$400/month each. Expect to put in 15-20 hours/week, including drive time. It’s not as easy as some say, but it’s doable with the right plan! Drop your questions below 👇

Everyone wants the viral video. But here’s the truth: Followers and views don’t automatically mean money. I’ve seen creators hit millions of views and gain thousands of followers… only to realize their path to income is way farther out than they thought. Why? Because they never learned how content actually turns into a business. Here’s the foundation most people skip: 1. Monetization isn’t one-size-fits-all. A gamer? You’re in entertainment. Your money will mostly come from the platforms, maybe sponsorships, maybe fan support. Trying to live off affiliate links alone? Good luck. It’ll be slow. Now compare that to someone teaching people how to knit. They can sell digital products. Do coaching. Use affiliate links. They’ve got more clear, direct ways to monetize—fewer views, but more income. 2. Going viral is nice. But it’s not a plan. You need to know your monetization paths BEFORE you choose your niche or your content angle. Not after. If this is hitting for you and you want the full breakdown of how to think about this like a business… Comment "legend" on IG and I’ll DM you my guide. Or hit the link in my bio. It’s all in there.

People always say, “Pick a niche.” But what they don’t tell you is… some niches have almost no income potential. You could go viral and still not make a dime. Why? Because the income path density is low. That means there aren’t many ways to monetize—no natural digital product, no affiliate tie-ins, no services to offer. You’re just hoping for ad revenue or fan tips. But if your niche has high income path density—like personal finance, health, DIY, or knitting—you’ve got options. You can monetize through: ✅ Products ✅ Affiliates ✅ Coaching ✅ Courses ✅ Community ✅ Sponsorships And now you’re not just building content… You’re building a business. This is the difference between a hobby and real income. And if you want help figuring out your income path density, I’ve got a free guide in my bio that walks you through it.

Making money online is booming. But let’s talk about the part no one wants to admit. Most of the content you see about “how to make money online” isn’t really trying to help you. It’s trying to help the creator get clicks, views, and maybe sell you something. It’s not that the ideas are fake. It’s that they’re surface-level. Stuff like “sell a book on Amazon” or “start a faceless YouTube channel” with no mention of what it actually takes to succeed in that space. Because the truth? It’s not that flashy. And truth doesn’t always go viral. But that’s the gap I’m here to fill. I've spent the last 2 years deep-diving this space—testing, researching, debunking hype, and learning what actually works. And here's the real truth: Yes, you can make real money online. Enough to replace your 9 to 5. But it’s not easy, and it’s not fast. You have to understand what kind of business you’re building. There are 4 core business models online. And within each one, you’ve got to match the right one to you. Your strengths. Your energy. Your life. That takes time, testing, and some uncomfortable honesty. But if you're willing to approach this like a real business owner—if you're tired of the hype and want direction that’s grounded, not gimmicky—I’m building this for you. It’s why I created the Online Business Legend. It’s not a course. It’s not a get-rich system. It’s a foundation. A way to understand what the hell you’re actually getting into. You can name your price. Even $0. Because I believe if we raise the bar of what’s being taught in this space—everybody wins. If you made it this far, do me one favor: Drop something encouraging in the comments. Tag a brand you think should sponsor me. Say something you believe about what I’m doing here. Sponsors pay attention to stuff like that. And it genuinely helps me keep putting out content like this without charging for it. Let’s prove that honesty and depth still have a place in this space.

Most people think you need to show your face or go viral to make money online. This channel does neither. 📍It films 4K walking tours in cities around the world. No talking. No drama. Just calm, immersive videos of everyday life in global destinations. And yet… 💰 It makes $12,204/month 📈 With $9,763 in profit (80% margin) 🧠 All from platform ad revenue alone Here’s why it works—and what’s holding it back: ✅ Evergreen content: Once uploaded, these walking tours earn for years ✅ Long-form = more ad placements = more revenue ✅ Faceless = scalable ✅ Viewers love it for travel, relaxation, and background vibes ✅ Low production costs but high visual quality But here’s the catch… ❌ Only earns from ads ❌ Growth is starting to stall ❌ No brand, no community, no other monetization 💡This is what I call a content business ready for diversification. The format works. Now it needs new income paths: – Launch a podcast or newsletter – Sell digital travel guides or affiliate gear – License videos to hotels, apps, or wellness brands – Build community and layer in brand deals Because when you expand strategically, you increase your income path density. More entry points. More ways to earn. I don’t share these case studies to hype buying them. I share them so you can learn the structure of smart online businesses. Save this and study the model.

with by Jade 🎯 Want to make passive income selling your photos online? Here’s what no one tells you about the stock photography hustle 📸 💡You can sell your photos on sites like Shutterstock, Adobe Stock, and Alamy. But here’s what it really takes: ✅ You’ll need: A portfolio of 100+ high-quality images Proper tags and descriptions for SEO Consistent uploads to grow visibility Patience—this is a slow burn 💵 How much can you make? Most new contributors earn $0.10–$3 per download Passive income ranges from $10–$200/month for casual users Top 1% earners? They treat it like a business and make $1,000+/month, but they’ve uploaded thousands of images over years ⚠️ What people don’t say: You don’t get paid for uploading. You get paid when someone buys or downloads. Photos of people need signed model releases. Trends matter: Lifestyle shots, tech, business, and diverse representation tend to sell more. 🧠 Strategy matters more than talent: Niche down (like “remote work photos” or “inclusive fitness”) Learn what buyers want, not just what looks pretty Think like a marketer, not just a photographer This is a long game—not a quick win. But if you already have a camera and like taking photos, it’s a way to earn while you sleep.
