Earning quick cash is fast and easy and you don’t have to be a genius to do it. Just keep your options straight and simple, that’s all! So when college student Kylie found it hard to pay for an expensive excursion trip, despite working after class as a part time waitress, she decided to put on a yard sale to sell off items that were lying idle in her room and to make more money.
It was a great idea that Kylie had put to use for earning some extra cash. However, doing away with personal junks in exchange of fast cash is not the ‘everytime’ solution you might be looking for, especially when you are in some serious urgent financial crisis.
You would have to think hard to choose your options carefully, especially if you are looking for a continuous means to alternative earning for reasons like paying off your debt, making savings to achieve bigger dreams or even temporary financial help to meet your business needs. That is why you need better plans and speaking of which, here are some clever ways that you can take tips from to make quick bucks instantly.
#1. Go Do Your Internet Gig
The internet is a great place that has something for everyone. If you have got the talent to invent something, then how about opening up your own internet sale? On what? On anything that you are sure would sell like crazy when put up. Some can bake cup cakes that everyone around loves to treat themselves to, while some enjoy sewing together stuffed toys that others would just love to buy.
It’s your call for deciding what to sell. But whatever it maybe, you should be confident about it. There are many online shops that provide the perfect place for crafty vendors and you can try out this all new business venture if you have not done it yet. The internet is an exciting place where you will get to discover multiple options to make your business enterprising.
#2. Start Your Own Affiliate Blog
In affiliate marketing, you spread the word out to the target audience on behalf of a particular company.
Blogging is one of the best ways to do it and you can easily earn more while sitting at home or during your leisure period. Here, in the blog you have to provide a text link that will take the reader directly to the company for whose website you are content marketing. This text link is called the unique coded link and it lets the company know that one of their new customers had been referred by you.
If you already own a blog page or a website, or maybe just have the great potentiality to write, then starting an affiliate program is the best thing to earn money right away. If you are looking for some tips on how to get started with, then I would suggest beginning with things that you like the most.
Check the websites of the service that you want to write for to find their affiliate programs. Some of them might have and some won’t. Once you are done choosing the one you would like to work for, sign up to follow the link. Read the instructions for further assistance to begin your affiliate marketing. There are times when a website offer affiliate marketing campaigns using another network. You might have to join the affiliate network in order to promote the possible products. Also, do make sure you follow the posts published by other bloggers to understand how affiliate marketing is done.
#3. Apply For A Short Term Title Loan
Title loans are different from the traditional ones. They are easy to apply for and even easier to return. All that you need to have is to own a car. The vehicle acts as the collateral that the lender uses to determine how much money to lend to the borrower. A borrower can however, get to use his/her vehicle even while he/she is serving his/her loan term. This is one of the biggest advantages of availing a title loan. Apart from this, title loans are short term loans that a person can easily apply for and expect to have it within 24 hours.
You do not need to produce any credit history to the lender while you are borrowing but you might have to hand over a separate bunch of car keys and your car collateral. Title loans are fast and convenient and stand out as the next best option you can get. But make sure, you choose a reliable lender who has been in this service for a long time and has the legitimate certification rights.
Also, make a comparative study to find out which of them has the best benefit in terms of interest rates, sustainability, loan term, monthly payment mode, etc.
#4. Give Out Weekend Services
Weekends are all about taking rest from the daily hectic work schedules. It is no doubt annoying to work on weekends, so choose something that does not become too much of a drudgery and which you would love looking forward to instead. There are some wonderful weekend services that you can give out, such as – washing cars, baby sitting, mowing lawns or taking out pets for a stroll. These are fun to do and maybe you can spend some quality time instead of wasting an entire day dozing on the couch.
#5. Rent Out Your Parking Space
If your parking space is lying idle and if you are not owning a car, then give it to someone who needs it more than you. There are many city workers who are just tired of paying daily parking bills for their cars and would be just glad to pay rent once every month, for a garage that will provide shelter to their vehicles all through the season.
Earning extra money by offering services is what J. Money refers to as ‘Gigs for Goals‘ strategy – the process of landing with a side job to pay off bills and other expenses. Desperate times require desperate measures, especially for someone facing financial crunch. There are millions of alternative solutions out there but your choice should be measured, depending on the term and condition of your crisis.
