Nick Loper:我成为副业专家的历程始于人生低谷时期的自我探索。我开始寻找低风险的创业模式,并通过对商业模式的解构,最终创建了Side Hustle Nation。我的第一个副业是Shoesniper.com,一个鞋类比价网站。通过这个项目,我积累了创业经验,并最终将副业发展成全职工作。在创业过程中,我发现不要围绕你的热情创业,而应该围绕解决问题来创业。即使你对这个问题并不特别热情,在工作的过程中,热情也会随之而来。 我建议大家从一些容易上手的副业开始,例如信用卡奖励、返现应用、在线市场调研、eBay 或 Facebook 市场交易等。衡量副业效益可以用每小时收入,但也要考虑可持续性,以及是否能融入日常生活碎片化时间。适合利用15分钟碎片时间完成的副业包括:按需印刷(例如Redbubble和Merch by Amazon)、撰写博客文章等。如果你掌握了一项技能或找到了一个问题的解决方案,可以将其转化为商业模式。 一些需要学习特定技能才能从事的副业,例如成为流动公证员,学习网页设计、远程簿记、Salesforce 顾问等,可以获得更高的收入。“软件加服务”是一种有潜力的副业模式,即利用流行软件产品的生态系统来提供服务。如果你解决了某个问题,可以录制 YouTube 视频分享你的解决方案,即使视频内容很普通,也可能获得很多观看量和广告收入。YouTube 频道需要达到一定的订阅数和观看时长才能开启变现功能。 被动收入是指无需持续投入时间就能获得的收入,而时间杠杆收入是指投入时间后,收入可以持续增长,但投入时间与收入不成正比。在发展副业的过程中,要提前思考成功的标准,并努力将自己从日常工作中解放出来。寻找副业创意的方法包括:“什么令人讨厌的方法”、“复制、调整和实施方法”、“狙击手方法”等。可以将日常工作技能转化为副业,但需注意避免与雇主产生竞争,并事先征得雇主的同意。我的主要收入来源是播客赞助和网站/邮件列表的联盟收入。将副业视为实验,可以降低失败的打击感。 Chris Hutchins:我很好奇你如何将副业变成主要收入来源?如何将副业发展成全职工作?如何寻找合适的副业创意?如何衡量副业的效益?如何利用碎片化时间来做副业?能否将日常工作中的技能转化为副业?
