Many small businesses and start-ups are probably desperate for somebody who can manage their social media. One less worry for them.

Social media for companies is a crucial part of growing an online business. Regular posts and content can genuinely benefit a company, spreading their message and reaching more people. For this reason, there are many companies and businesses that would be willing to pay money for you to post and engage with their followers. What could be better than getting paid to be on social media?

Why not start your own little shop-and-sell website? You could even start on somewhere like Etsy, Shopify, eBay or Depop.

If you’ve got a creative knack, you can sell your creations. However, it’s not all doom and gloom if you don’t. You can buy in-demand products, selling them for a profit.

Over time, you could start your own e-commerce business, starting as a little side job. Many businesses have started out this way, why not give it a try?

Working full time doesn’t mean that you can’t provide a service, make use of your passion or start an entirely new hobby. The beauty of the online world is that you can quite literally do anything or everything. Anywhere.
