5 Simple, Quick Ways to Make Money
There are times when we need extra cash. Maybe there's a few birthdays coming up and you need to buy presents. Or maybe your work has decided that because of the economic situation they've had to cut your hours. Here are some ideas on quick ways to make money.
1. Do odd jobs in your neighborhood
There are always people who need help, whether it's weeding a garden or fixing a dripping tap or doing some painting. These odd jobs are often too small for a regular trader to come in and do - they may only take a few minutes or even a few hours - but there are always plenty of these jobs around. Once you've done a few jobs to your customer's satisfaction, word will start to get round and you'll find yourself being called frequently for these odd jobs.
2. Offer computer help
Strange as it may sound, there are still lots of people who don't know much about their computers. So if something goes wrong, they're in trouble. Everything is fine when switching the PC on means that Windows loads but viruses are getting more virulent and much sneakier than they used to be. And components that shouldn't fail if you believe the specifications are often prey to problems. A sign in your local shop or supermarket will likely get people calling you to help them fix their computer problems.
3. Offer a dog walking service
Of course, dogs are man's best friend. But they need exercise on a daily basis. Which is where a dog walking service comes in handy. Depending on your local bylaws, you can walk several dogs at once and get both them and yourself the necessary exercise. You'll probably need a suitable car to get the dogs to somewhere safe and enjoyable to walk and naturally you'll need to be good with animals.
4. Become an eBay trader
Chances are that you've bought things on eBay and maybe even sold a few. It's cheap to list an item for sale and it can be profitable. You need to make sure that the items you sell are in demand - check out eBay Pulse to see what's currently selling like hot cakes. And you need to craft your headlines so that they're keyword rich and use up as many of the available characters as possible. A photo is a must as well. You can increase the odds of selling your item if you offer international postage (at extra cost of course).
5. Become a virtual assistant
Secretaries and office workers are no longer tied to an office. Many smaller firms need help but without the overhead of premises. Answering the phone for a local business can help them to increase sales - few people enjoy talking to a machine. Or you could help with paperwork or promotion. There are web sites that act as the "glue" between businesses looking for virtual assistants and people offering their services. This can be a handy and flexible way to make extra money.
