The Secret to All These Side Hustles
The secret to starting a side hustle is that you can do in 1-2 hours per day is getting it set up the right way. You can do that by choosing an offer that you can create once and sell forever and by setting up a simple email campaign once that will promote that offer forever. Then, you can put some of your marketing on autopilot with tools like Manychat.
Here is What You’ll Need:
- An offer you can sell over and over again
- A online store like Stan Store that you can set up in 15 minutes.

Ready to see the top 15 side hustles that will work with this system? Let’s dive in!
1-Start a Stan Store
This is one of my favorite ways to make money from home since it only takes a few minutes to set up, and it‘s actually five side hustles in one. You can sell courses, digital products, and subscriptions, promote affiliate links, and collect emails. All you have to do is log into Stan Store and start adding products.
2-Email Affiliate Marketing
Email marketing is another favorite. Basically, you find a product to promote. Then, you create a freebie in Canva that introduces that offer and use a free AWeber account to build a landing page and email opt-in. Then, drive traffic to your freebie with Pinterest or TikTok. Once you have people on your list, you can share other offers they will love.
3-Create Your Own Course
Have you ever uploaded a video to social media? Then you can create a course in Stan Store, and no, it doesn’t have to be a long or expensive course. You can film course modules on your iPhone, add slides in Canva, and upload them to Stan Store.
4-Create a Subscription
Subscriptions are popular alternatives to courses because you can charge a few dollars a month instead of a lump sum upfront. You can sell Canva templates or monthly short stories, do weekly training, create a paid Facebook community, and more. You can set it upright in Stan Store.
5-Sell PLR Digital Products
PLR digital products are digital products that you can buy once and resell as your own. StanStore is actually a really great place to sell these products. Here are some of mine:
6-Promote Coupon & Survey Apps
This is a side hustle that no one is talking about. Coupon apps like Rakutan pay up to $40 per qualified referral. depending on the time of year. The best part is that it’s free for you and your referrals. In most cases, they will get bonuses for signing up, too! All you have to do is download the app, sign up for an account, find the referral link, and start promoting them, just like any other product. Some good ones include:
- Rakuten
- Ibotta
- Fetch
- Receipt Hog
- Lolli
- Brand Club
- Shopkicks
- Dosh
- Brand Club
- Eureka
- AttaPoll
- PollPay
- Toluna
7-SaaS Affiliate Marketing
SaaS products are software as a subscription products, which sounds more complicated than it is. Basically, they are products like Stan Store or Wix that provide a software service that people subscribe to. SaaS affiliate marketing is one of my favorite side hustles because you are promoting things that people really need. Some of my favorites include Go High Level, StanStore, System.io, and Master Resell Rights. (Not the Roadmap with MMR!)
8-Local SEO With Go High Level
About 90% of people use Google or Bing to find local stores and services (think plumbing, lawyers, doctors, etc.) So, it‘s important that these businesses show up on Google. Go High Level helps people do that. When you become a Go High-Level affiliate, you can help local businesses do that.
9-Start a Blog
This is actually how 1000 Ways To WAHM started. Starting a blog is still a great way to make money in 2024 because there are multiple ways to do it. You can try affiliate marketing, run ads, and even create your own digital products.
10-Create Your OWN Digital Products & Printables
This is one of the hottest ways to make passive income right now and one of my favorites. You can use Canva to create invitations, party decorations, planners, calendars, and so much more. The best part is you don’t have to ship any items. You simply upload the file to your Stan listing. After they purchase it, your customer will receive the file and print it.
11-Sell Canva Templates
Canva has hundreds of templates, but it can be challenging to find the perfect one to use for your business or even for personal use. That is why people (like me) will happily buy templates for anything from Pin templates to eBooks templates to invitations and more.
12-Sell Craft Templates & Patterns
If you are passionate about crafting, this is a great niche to be in, but it can take a really long time to make crafts to sell. Instead you can sell things like Circuit patterns, knitting patterns, and more. This still allows you to be crafty, while making passive income.
13-Create POD Products With Printify
This is a fun idea for people who are kind of creative but kind of not. (Like me.) Basically, you can design, market, and sell items like t-shirts and mugs. Then a company like Printify or Gearbubble fulfills the orders. You are responsible for promoting your items, so it takes a bit of work, but it can become a great stream of passive income. These companies both allow you to sell on Amazon, Etsy, or on your own website.
14-Create Low Content Books
Have you ever wanted to write a book…but ya know, without actually writing anything? As a fiction writer, I feel you 100%. And while I can’t get away with it, you definitely can by creating planners and journals and selling them on Kindle Direct Publishing (KDP). You design the covers and interior pages in Canva and then upload them on KDP or in your StanStore. (This system also works for actual authors too!)
15-Sell Your Art
If you are a busy mom and artist, you might not have time to create new art on a regular basis, but you can still sell prints of the art you do have. You can also turn it into stickers, bookmarks, and all sorts of merch.
So there you have it! 15 side hustles that you can turn into passive income with this simple side hustle system. Need more ideas? Check out 25 Things That You Can Start Selling Today, and don’t forget to check out my free guide, The Passive Income Roadmap.
