Looking for ideas to create passive income while I work my main job

I’m looking for ideas for a side hustle I can start online in my spare time that will generate passive income while I work my main job. Ideally, I’d like something that brings in weekly income in the background. Does anyone have any ideas that are working for them? Thanks in advance!

There are lots of side hustles out there. My advice is to pick one and stick with it—don’t quit after 2 months if you don’t see success. It takes time.

Here’s what I do: I sell leads to local businesses in the US. They pay me every month as long as I keep delivering leads.

Here’s the basic process:

  1. Pick a niche
  2. Build a website for that niche
  3. Generate leads
  4. Find businesses that need those leads
  5. Sell the leads to them

I only work 10-15 hours a week, and it’s been great for me. But keep in mind, the first 2 years were tough—I hardly made any money, but I kept at it. Discipline is key. Feel free to DM me if you have questions.

You could try high-ticket sales. I do it on the side and make around $10K a month.

Wow, that’s impressive! How long have you been doing this, and what exactly is high-ticket sales?

I self-publish books on Amazon and make about $2.5K in royalties each month.

I’ve written a book too! How do you grow your sales on Amazon?

It’s awesome that you want to learn, but be careful. There are a lot of scammers out there promising quick results. I started with digital products, but it takes time and the right tools to see results. You’ve got to be strategic and invest wisely.

What kind of digital products did you start with?

I’m a chartered accountant, so I started by selling Excel templates and PowerPoint projects. It took about 12 years to build my portfolio, and now I sell directly to companies. You can definitely grow your income this way, but it takes time.

Digital marketing has been working for me. I made $2.7K in the first 1.5 months.

If you own or know someone who owns property on a busy street, you could try Yard Sign Marketing. I’ve been doing it for years, and it’s great passive income. Feel free to message me if you need help getting started.

That sounds interesting, but I rent right now. Do you think I could still make it work?

You don’t necessarily need to own property. You can ask friends or family who live on busy streets to let you post signs on their lawns and split the earnings 50/50.

That’s a great idea! Thanks for the suggestion.

Have you considered digital marketing and selling digital products?

I haven’t yet. Are you selling any digital products yourself?
