Teach A Language
Travel has officially started back up, and more people are traveling than ever! With these international trips come new cultures and new languages that many tourists want to get the hang of before arriving at their destination. If you are fluent in Spanish, Italian, Japanese, or any other major language, there is a market for you on Italki. Set your own rates and hours to create a teaching plan and schedule that works best for you.
Photography
Years ago I purchased a DSLR camera and have been able to utilize this not only in my personal life but in my business and as a side hustle time and time again. Canon products are my favorite, but it’s hard to go wrong with a good-quality camera for a side hustle for 2024. Connect with your community to offer photoshoots, headshots, Christmas cards, and more with one device. Additionally, with such a classic hobby, thousands of free resources are available online.
Dogwalker with Wag!
An easy way to make money during the day, in between meetings, or on the go while traveling, dog walking with Wag! makes this side hustle for 2024 simple. Download the app and get approved to become a caregiver for dogs, then easily opt-in to future walks that are a pre-set radius from your current location. Take as many or as few walks as you’d like based on your availability in between freelancing or running your business.
Get Crafty
Etsy stores are still a way that crafty individuals can find success and make some extra money. A popular side hustle for years, Etsy is the perfect marketplace for you to get crafty beyond your wildest dreams. The easiest way to start out with an Etsy store is to purchase a Cricut, a machine that enables you to produce professional-looking crafts at home. While not super affordable, users are able to recover the cost quickly by selling their crafts and creating products for their friends and family.
Babysitting
Babysitting has always been one of my favorite side hustles because you get to have a relatively normal evening while making money. Families often even provide dinner for babysitters, saving you money on a meal that night. Finding a family can be difficult as many people find it hard to trust someone with their children understandably. Look for referrals in your community, maybe in your neighborhood or at church.You can also utilize a site like Care.com to find families as well, after having your background checked through the site. Once you have a good connection with a local family, ask them to recommend you to other families they know looking for a caregiver.
Candlemaking in Your Kitchen
Making candles has been a special hobby of mine for years now as it combines my love of both the kitchen and thrift stores. I love to find candle vessels while antiquing and thrifting that are unique and made of materials such as glass, ceramic, or crystal. A popular side hustle for 2024, it’s easy to get everything you need for candle making in one kit if it’s your first time and you are just testing this side hustle out. As candles are consumable, if you create a good customer base you will find that the repeat customers are out there.
Today there are limitless options for side hustles and female entrepreneurs should choose a side hustle that speaks to their passions and talents. Let us know what your side hustle for 2024 is below!
