Side Hustle

So, in the midst of my life and current situation, this seemed like a good book for me to read to help further my skills and to hone these skills and turn it into something that could help me further my career.

Side Hustle: From Idea to Income in 27 Days

The funniest part, before getting to page one, was opening the book and on the inside of the sleeve, to see the description added to "channel one's inner girl scout". This gave me such a big chuckle as a Girl Scout leader!

When you open the book, you can see the quick plan for what the 27 days will look like with quick bullet point descriptions. This is most definitely something that is super helpful. This way when you are in a bookstore and looking for a good book, you can quickly see the plan laid out so you will know whether or not this book will be helpful for you to be able to utilise.

As someone who has been a stay-at-home mum who brought in money in different ways-- yard sales, babysitting, saving money, etc, I wanted to have a way to be able to start something for myself. Something that would fit into my schedule. So this book was a no-brainer.

It even gives you ideas from which to start which can honestly fit into any niche of what you are doing. Including, but not limited to, blogging.

Never did I buy into the be-paid-to-spend-hours-doing-surveys because I did a few and never saw anything. So I vowed to be more legit in how I get my hustle on.

Massage therapy is something I would like to get back into as well as virtual tutoring and photography. These all take steps and time.

So this book helps make it possible and looks at the short-range changes one can make instead of making it about the long term which is super helpful in building up a strong long-term plan! So I can't wait to see the fruition of this!

I give this book $$$$$ out of 5.

Book Description:
The author of the New York Times Bestseller THE $100 STARTUP shows how to launch a profitable side hustle in just 27 days.


For some people, the thought of quitting their day job to pursue the entrepreneurial life is exhilarating. For many others, it's terrifying. After all, a stable job that delivers a regular paycheck is a blessing. And not everyone has the means or the desire to take on the risks and responsibilities of working for themselves.

But what if we could quickly and easily create an additional stream of income without giving up the security of a full-time job? Enter the side hustle.

Chris Gullibeau is no stranger to this world, having launched more than a dozen side hustles over his career. Here, he offers a step-by-step guide that takes you from idea to income in just 27 days.

Designed for the busy and impatient, this detailed roadmap will show you how to select, launch, refine, and make money from your side hustle in under a month. You'll learn how to:

- Brainstorm, borrow, and steal to build an arsenal of great side hustle ideas (day 3)
- Apply "Tinder for Side Hustle" logic to pick the best idea at any time (day 6)
- Learn, gather, or create everything you need to launch; then set up a real life way to get paid (days 13-14)
- Start raking in the money by channeling your inner Girl Scout (day 18)
- Master the art of deals, discounts, and special offers (day 21)
- Raise your game: improve, expand, or make more money off your hustle (days 24-26)

A side hustle is more than just another stream of income, it's also the new job security. When you receive paychecks from different sources, it allows you to take more chances in your "regular" career. More income means more options. More options equals freedom. You don't need entrepreneurial experience to launch a profitable side hustle. You don't have to have an MBA, or know how to code, or be an expert marketer. You don't need employees or investors. With Chris as a guide, anyone can make more money, pursue a passion, and enjoy greater security - without quitting their day job.
