If you're looking to change your life with a side hustle, this video is for you.
00:04
Whether it's for an extra $1,000 a month or to replace your full-time income, you will
00:10
find here free-to-start side hustles with no paid apps, no subscriptions, and no ads.
00:18
Let's find out your perfect hustle together.
00:21
And the first one for today is training AI.
00:24
Did you know that companies are hiring people to do simple tasks like identifying people
00:30
in photos and maps?
00:33
This helps them enhance their AI applications, making them smarter and more effective.
00:39
See here, a company called AI Tutor pays between $35 and $65 an hour for remote jobs.
00:46
You can find a lot of these jobs on remote tasks, for example, to be a chatbot AI trainer,
00:52
you can get paid $720 per week, which equals to about $15 to $18 per hour.
01:00
According to the data on Glassdoor, the estimated total pay range for a remote AI trainer at
01:06
remote tasks is between $59,000 and $109,000 per year.
01:12
Reddit users have reported earning between $20 to $55 per hour with these jobs.
01:19
Quite impressive, right?
01:20
The next one is called user research studies, and this one can be surprisingly enjoyable.
01:26
You need to participate in research missions.
01:28
For instance, dsScout is a free platform that pays people to take part in these studies.
01:34
There are other similar platforms as well, like L&E Opinions and SegaFocus groups, which
01:41
according to some user reports on Reddit, are harder to get accepted to, but you can
01:46
get paid more there.
01:48
For example, you can get paid $280 or $100 for just one interview.
01:54
If you want to complete as many of these missions as possible, I recommend you to register on
02:00
a similar platform.
02:01
I found a few more, like Prolific and Cloud Research, and they are all free platforms
02:08
to join.
02:09
Now let's dive into the next free side hustle, making videos for YouTube.
02:14
You can be a content creator like me.
02:16
Last month, for example, I made about $5,000 just with YouTube ads.
02:21
And that's just YouTube ads, but I also make money with affiliate links in the video
02:26
descriptions as well as with sponsored integrations in some of the videos, which are marked accordingly.
02:32
You can make videos with your face, or what I think is even easier to scale, you can make
02:38
faceless videos and create several channels at once.
02:42
And if you like a less scripted style of YouTube videos, you could even create a channel
02:47
with podcast interviews that are recorded in the longer format.
02:52
If you do so, I highly recommend you to record your interviews on Riverside.
02:57
Why?
02:58
Because when I started using Riverside, I noticed a significant improvement in my video
03:04
and audio quality, even when my internet connection wasn't perfect.
03:09
I can now record live calls and stream them on multiple platforms in HD quality.
03:16
I love how Riverside's Conversation Studio has made editing a breeze.
03:21
I can now edit my videos just by tweaking the transcript, which saves me so much time.
03:27
AI will automatically generate word-for-word transcription for your videos.
03:32
When editing the videos, you can change track volume, mute it, or let AI mute some parts
03:39
of the video which have no speech.
03:41
On top of it, you can scale your video production by repurposing your longer videos in Riverside.
03:48
Use the Magic Clips feature to generate several short videos from a long one, then publish
03:54
them as YouTube Shorts, as well as repost them on other platforms like TikTok videos,
04:00
Instagram Reels, or maybe even short videos on Pinterest.
04:04
Try Riverside for free using my link in the description below, and enjoy an exclusive
04:09
15% discount for my audience using the code ANASTASIABLOGGER when you're making a purchase.
04:16
Thank you to Riverside for supporting this part of the video.
04:19
Next up, we have game testing.
04:21
Yes, getting paid to test games.
04:24
Playtest Cloud is a platform where mobile game companies submit their games for testing,
04:30
always in need for new testers.
04:32
It's free to register again.
04:34
Reddit users have reported earning about $10 to $20 for testing sessions lasting 30 minutes.
04:41
It's a fun way to earn some extra cash.
04:44
Moving on to our next free side hustle, it's Pinterest affiliate marketing.
04:49
Did you know that you can do affiliate marketing using a visual search platform like Pinterest?
04:56
Affiliate marketing is when you recommend products or services, and if someone makes
05:01
a purchase through your links, you get a commission from every sale.
05:05
For example, on Pinterest, you can link every pin image with a collage of products, for
05:10
example, to a specific post on LTK, and it's one of the affiliate networks that I use.
05:16
It removes one extra step compared to Instagram, for example, where users must first go to
05:22
your profile and find your link in bio.
05:26
On Pinterest, users get your affiliate cookies to their browser just by clicking on the Pinterest
05:31
pins.
05:32
This is a Pinterest account with over 10 million monthly viewers, and you will see that, although
05:39
she does have a website attached to this Pinterest account, she still posts about half of her
05:44
pins linking them directly to her LTK posts.
05:48
Like these two that have like it in the URL, they are linked to her LTK posts directly.
05:54
When you click on the image, you will see the post with many products attached.
05:59
Users can click on particular products and shop them.
06:02
In this case, we see here joggers from Nordstorm.
06:06
The best part is that the content on Pinterest can be faceless, so you can just make images
06:12
that display collages of products.
06:15
You can get away with only images on Pinterest.
06:18
In fact, images usually drive way more traffic than video pins.
06:23
I have a very popular video on my channel about affiliate marketing on Pinterest.
06:28
I will link it for you up there and also in the description below.
06:32
Check it out once we're done with the rest of the side hustles in this video.
06:37
You can also sign up for my free on-demand Pinterest class to learn all that you need
06:41
to know about Pinterest SEO.
06:44
Again, find the link in the description below.
06:47
Next up, starting an Etsy store for digital products.
06:51
This is another great idea.
06:53
On Etsy, digital items like coloring books, Canva templates, planners for special live
06:59
events like wedding invitations, clipart, patterns, and even resume templates – these
07:06
are all very popular products.
07:08
Check out this store that made close to $3 million in sales over the years, which is
07:13
about $35,000 a month, and their most popular items in the store are downloadable wedding
07:20
invitation templates and some other stationary templates.
07:24
You don't need to be an artist or a graphic designer to succeed.
07:28
Take digital wall art prints, for instance.
07:31
They often use free stock images from sites like Pixabay with edited colors and filters.
07:38
Many stores these days use AI-generated images.
07:42
These posters are very popular.
07:44
If you want to start this side hustle, there's a link in the video description to start an
07:49
Etsy store with 40 free listings.
07:52
You can use Photopea, it's a free Photoshop alternative, and you can use Canva's free
07:58
app to create and design products.
08:01
Plus, you can get free photos from sites like Pixabay.com and Paxels.com.
08:06
And I actually made a more detailed video about 5 best digital products that you can
08:11
create with AI tools and sell them on Etsy to make over $10,000 a month.
08:16
I will link that video up there and also in the description below for you.
08:21
Now, if you're looking for a straightforward side hustle that pays cash for completing
08:26
simple tasks, consider becoming a user tester.
08:31
One of the best and most popular platforms for this is usertesting.com, where you can
08:36
register for free.
08:38
As a user tester, your role is simple.
08:40
You test various websites and apps created by companies, and you provide your feedback
08:46
on their usability.
08:47
For example, you might be asked to test a fitness website and find the checkout button
08:53
there.
08:54
While performing these tasks, you will record your screen and provide some verbal feedback
08:59
using the microphone on your laptop.
09:02
It's as easy as it sounds.
09:04
On average, you can earn about $10 for each 20-minute test, making it a decent and easy
09:10
way to earn side income.
09:12
Now, let's talk about another great side hustle – UGC or user-generated content.
09:19
All you need is your phone, though a laptop can help you as well.
09:23
Studying this side hustle costs nothing, and you don't even have to show your face
09:28
if you don't want to.
09:30
You will create short videos for brands, and you will get paid between $150 and $500 for
09:36
a 60-second video.
09:38
For example, this college student makes $10,000 a month, but she has 68,000 TikTok followers,
09:45
so she didn't earn that much when she started.
09:49
You don't need a large social media following, by the way, because brands will post these
09:54
videos on their channels.
09:56
UGC is perfect for beginners, and there are many opportunities, especially in the beauty
10:02
and fashion niches.
10:04
Brands prefer real people over big influencers for genuine-looking content and for reviews.
10:11
Besides the payment, you often get free products to try, and there are platforms to connect
10:17
with these brands like Trends.io, Incense, and there are actually five more websites
10:23
that I will list for you their names here, and you can pause the video and point out
10:28
their names if you want to.
10:30
And as you grow your social media following, your rates for UGC can increase, so it's
10:36
good to have an Instagram or a TikTok account to share your UGC work.
10:42
You can even create UGC videos without showing your face.
10:46
Popular formats include showing products in your hands like unboxing videos, and you can
10:52
use your voice or even an AI-generated voiceover.
10:56
I have published a detailed tutorial on how to start making money as a UGC creator, so
11:02
if this idea is interesting, watch the next video linked up there.
11:06
And I'll see you in that next one!
