How to Make 1000 Dollars a Month with a Side Hustle

Get Paid to Deliver Groceries

Instacart is a grocery store delivery service that makes it easier than ever for customers to get their groceries. Think of it as the Door Dash or Uber of grocery service. Workers make money by shopping at local stores that partner with Instacart and then deliver the groceries to the customer.
You can sign up as an independent contractor, set your own schedule, and cash out weekly. In order to work with Instacart you need…
  • 18 years or older
  • car/driver’s license
  • smartphone
  • pass a background check
Independent contractors are paid based on commission depending on the size of the order and number of deliveries made. You can also earn tips as an independent contractor with Instacart. Commissions are usually higher during busy shopping times like Sundays, during major sporting events, and right before big holidays.

Get Paid to Deliver Food

Door Dash is a food delivery service that lets you make money while working a flexible schedule. Door Dash partners with restaurants that don’t currently have their own delivery service and provides “Dashers”  to make the deliveries. You must meet these requirements to become a “Dasher”…
  • Be at least 18 years old.
  • Have a smartphone to access the app for delivery assignments
  • Have valid driver’s license, insurance, and good driving record (if applicable). Some locations don’t require that you have a car
  • Provide your Social Security number for a background check
Door Dash has confirmed that the average earnings comes out to $15 – $25 per hour. I love that Door Dash offers extra earning opportunities on top of the average pay. You can make more money by working peak times, the “Busy Pay” period, when deliveries are more popular. Earn an extra $50 – $100, depending on your location,  by referring your friends to work for Door Dash. The flexibility of this job makes it an ideal side hustle, and obviously the more you work the more money you can make!

Get Paid to Teach English Online

Teaching English classes online has become a popular way to make money from home.  Native English speakers with experience working with kids and a Bachelor degree can sign up to work with companies that provide English immersion classes for Chinese students ages 5 – 12.  You can earn $2000 per month working an average of 3 – 5 hours per day.

Classroom with Online Teaching

The classroom is similar to Skype or Google Hangouts. You can see your students and they can see you. You both can see the lesson online and students can interact with the lesson by drawing or writing on the pages.

Flexible Work Schedule

I usually work early morning hours from 5 am – 8 am EST which is 6 pm – 9 pm Beijing time. No time is spent planning a lesson.. every lesson is planned for you. I usually spend 10 – 15 minutes looking over the lessons before teaching so that I have all the props ready to go for my lessons.
This is such a great side hustle opportunity for anyone who is looking to add flexible income. Another aspect that I love about teaching English online is that I can choose when I teach my classes. I try to stick to a routine so that my students can choose to work with me regularly, but if my husband is traveling or working an early morning then I don’t schedule openings for those days.

The Click Funnels product includes everything needed to make a sales funnel from the landing pages, squeeze pages, special offers, and tons of training so anybody can create effective sales funnels.
You may be wondering how this can make you money???
Click Funnels will pay you an affiliate commission to share their product with business owners who need to do online advertising which is basically every company! The affiliate commission is at no additional charge to the customer, but you make money for basically introducing the business owners to the amazing products that Click Funnels has to offer.
If you are at all interested in online marketing, then I highly suggest you sign up for the training provided to Click Funnels affiliates called the Affiliate Bootcamp. The Affiliate Bootcamp training is completely FREE and it comes with a plan laid out for you to start making money as a Click Funnels affiliate. The value of the course is $997, but they give it away for FREE.
Once you learn about the Click Funnels product you can start targeting businesses in your local area that need to improve sells. You can send them an email or call their office. When you are targeting businesses you want to choose companies that sell products or services that are between $300+ per visit. Some ideas are dentists, dermatologists/skin care specialists, plastic surgeons, hotels, real estate companies, etc.
There are different tiers of commission for each product that is sold, but if you were to sell roughly 10 products you could earn $1000 per month as a part time Click Funnels affiliate.

Merch by Amazon

Merch by Amazon is a place where you have access to the millions of Amazon traffic to sell Print On Demand t-shirts. The Merch by Amazon platform is in the very beginning stages and the sales growth opportunities are just beginning!
Here’s how it works:
You have to apply for an invite to the Merch by Amazon platform. This can take anywhere from 2 weeks to 6+ months. Once you receive your invitation you can upload t-shirt designs to the platform. When a shirt is sold earn a royalty fee based on the price of the shirt.
A t-shirt that sells for $19.99 will earn you a royalty fee of $7.19. If you sell 140 shirts per month you can make $1006.60 in royalties from Amazon!

Freelance Writers

There are hundreds of thousands pieces of NEW content being created daily. Business owners don’t exactly have time to run their business and create new content on a daily basis. In order to keep a website fresh and up to date in search engines, businesses need people creating their content.
I got my start freelance writing by networking with two local businesses. They knew about my blog and were able to see the type of writing I can craft.
Here’s how it works:
You can get started freelance writing without a blog! Even though eventually you should start a blog so that you can grow your freelance writing business. If you just simply want to get started with freelance writing, I highly recommend taking a course like 30 Days to Freelance Writing Success.
30 Days to Freelance Writing Success covers everything you need to know about freelance writing like where to find jobs, how to negotiate your price, what to charge, and more!
So if you want to make $1000 per month with freelance writing, you can write 10 articles and charge $100 per article.

Virtual Assistant

Virtual assistants have strong administrative skills, are highly organized, and familiar with blogging/social media. There are several different ways that virtual assistants are used for businesses. Some businesses use a VA to keep up with emails, customer service online, blogging updates, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or Pinterest.
Here’s how it works:
You can specialize in one area to maximize your skills and time. If you can get really good at a specific skill like Pinterest then you can become an authority in your niche and build a booming business.
Pinterest  VAs work for both businesses and bloggers. The typical rate for running Pinterest for a company is $250 per month. This can include pinning pins, joining group boards, creating pins, promoting pins and more.
You would need to sign up 4 accounts to make $1000 per month.

Start a Blog

Starting a blog is an amazing way to make extra money from home. Blogging is a way to help people solve their problems in any niche. Bloggers are paid 3 different ways; ads, affiliate programs, and sponsored posts.
Here’s how it works:
Ads income: Bloggers work with ad networks like Google Adsense to post ads that will appear on their blog. Different ad networks have requirements for the number of pageview or sessions that a blog must have before a blogger can be accepted into the program. This is a passive way to earn income from blogging.
Blogs can earn pennies up to thousands of dollars from blogs alone. The amount of money earned from ad income all depends on the number of pageviews a blog has per month.
Affiliate Programs: You can earn money through affiliate programs by recommending a product. When someone clicks on that product and purchases it the blogger earns a commission at no extra charge to the customer. The amazing thing is that almost every product you use has some sort of affiliate program, which makes it easy to share with your audience. Once you have blog posts created with affiliate links this is another passive income opportunity for blogging!
My favorite affiliate programs:
Bloggers have to meet a certain minimum in order to receive their pay out from affiliate programs. This could range from $20 to earn an affiliate income from Amazon to $100 from a Flex Offers. Bloggers can earn pennies to thousands of dollars from affiliate programs per month.
Sponsored posts: A blogger will agree to write a post about a certain product or service for an amount of money. This is a great way to earn income, but you do have to create a  new written post to earn the money so it’s not passive.
Sponsored posts pay anywhere from $50 to $1000+ per post. The pay depends on the company sponsoring the post, how big the blog is (based on pageviews), and negotiating factors.
While you can make money from these different sources, it’s important that you only promote products or services that are relevant to your audience and are authentic recommendations.
It’s so not worth earning a few bucks for a product or service, that will cause you to lose your audience.
By focusing on providing your audience with answers to their problems you will be able to grow your audience (pageviews) and your income.
In the mean time, here are some more inspiring income reports from some of my favorite bloggers:
You can make 1000 dollars in a month or more as blogger. There are many bloggers who have quit their jobs to blog full time!

Final Thoughts

Each of these jobs have the potential to make $1000 or more per month. You have to be willing to put in the hard work to earn the money, though. These are not get rich quick ideas! You will probably be working late nights, early mornings, and through nap time. There will probably be a huge learning curve. And sometimes you might wonder if all the effort is worth it, until you start to see your earnings grow.
