10 Unique Ideas to Make Extra Money on the Side
If you are in need of that extra income within the next few days, weeks or months.. I have compiled a list of researched methods that can genuinely make you $1000+ every month
I am actively doing a majority of this and researching more on others I have yet to try.
1. Sell items on Facebook Marketplace.
One of the surest ways you can make a little extra money is to sell items on sites like Facebook Marketplace or Jiji.ng .
Any used items like furniture, household appliances, collectibles or anything else that you’re just not using or that is collecting dust, can be sold online to make extra cash.
If you’re serious about this, you can even do it professionally for others and collect a small commission for each sale. Take quality photos and write a good description and you’ll be in great shape.
I researched Facebook marketplace recently and I saw that most people have no idea what they are doing there! (still researching the marketplace)
2. Drive for Uber or Taxify.
One of the most widely available side hustles is to drive for Uber or Lyft .
The ride sharing economy has obviously exploded in our face, even here in Nigeria, and both Uber and Taxify are at the forefront.
What’s the best part of these softwares? You can turn on & off your availability through these networks with a button, effectively allowing you to make extra bucks in your spare time.
4. Deliver for Jumiafoods or Rideeats.
Another great option for earning extra income is to deliver for Jumiafoods or Rideeats .
Similar to working for Uber and Taxify, you can work whenever you want.
While the pay might not be enormous, you do have the ability to earn tips. If you’re in a highly trafficked area such as Lagos or Port Harcourt, this is a great way to earn some cash without quitting your job — and you don’t even need a car.
A standard bike, e-bike or bicycle, should do!
5. Manage social media for small businesses.
Many small businesses need a social media manager and simply don’t have the time nor the expertise to be constantly posting on social media platforms like Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat or Twitter.
Take it upon yourself to contact local businesses and offer up your services for a contracted monthly fee. Managing a social media account is an easy way to make extra money online no matter where you live.
6. Sell services on Fiverr & Upwork.
Fiverr helped give birth to the Gig Economy.
Although services start out at $5, some Fiverr sellers are earning six-figure-plus revenues annually.
You can sell just about anything on this platform, but to succeed and become a Super Seller, you need to deliver massive amounts of value, even at those lower price-points.
7. Start a blog.
The truth with this one is, you won’t make good money that fast with a blog.
But, if you start a blog and deliver enormous amounts of value, you could set yourself up with a platform for earning a tremendous amount of passive income.
This hustle idea is something you can easily build on the side with just a few hours of work per week, but you need to stay consistent and post great and awesome content regularly.
8. Create an online course.
Create an online course with a platform like Udemy or Teachable and leverage some of your skills to create a healthy extra income.
Depending upon how much time you invest in your course, you could make a substantial side revenue stream by creating courses that deliver tremendous amounts of value.

9. Build a sales funnel with ClickFunnels.
As an online marketer and a software engineer, I am obsessed with sales funnels.
However, many people struggle with creating the proper funnel that converts. It takes a high degree of technical and marketing knowledge.
However, ClickFunnels , a SaaS business with over 40,000 customers, which was started by Russell Brunson, takes all the guesswork out of that. Build a sales funnel and automate your selling with a platform like this.
10. Write an ebook.
I’ve long been drawn to the passive income supplied by creating an ebook and publishing an accompanied print-on-demand paperback.
By using platforms like KDP and CreateSpace , both by Amazon, you can create and easily sell an ebook that costs nothing to produce, and a paperback that earns you money only when it sells, removing much of the prior friction it took to get books published.
