Extra income within the comforts of your home
Where do you get that extra cash during this lockdown?
A lot of Filipinos lost their source of income due to CoViD pandemic. I know that most of us are looking for a job to have an extra income to support our family's basic needs, and the online world posts a lot of potential where people can earn money.
Right now, I have two sources of extra income where I earn not much, but just enough for what my family and I need. I sell online and write reviews.
1. Online selling
I have an account on Shopee which sells brand new and pre-loved books. It also has a small physical store near our house. I started my independent book store last August 2018. The physical book store is not frequent by people, since only few knows it, probably it is just me and the rest of the family. I get my sales more on Shopee, sometimes through Facebook or Carousell. Last time, I checked the sales I already earned and spent 33,000 pesos something in a span of year (excluding the sales thru FB and Carousell) which is not really a cash on hand thing, the digits is more of a system generated sales report from Shopee. In short, I do not have the 33,000 pesos something on my hand in case you are thinking that I have a cold cash in my pocket. I have spent most of them, and keep the capital cycling as it serves its purpose.
Reading books is one of my hobbies, so I enjoy selling books. You may also find things around you which you can sell online. Some of my friends are also selling online through Facebook and Instagram. They sell make-up and pre-loved clothes, bags, and footwear. Maybe now is the perfect for you to clean and organize your stuffs and declutter while earning a few pesos at the same time.
2. Review writing
I came across a post in one of the bookish group I am affiliated with on Facebook. The post advertised about a writing job with an average earnings of 5,000 to 10,000 pesos. I am usually skeptic with this kind of post online, they appear fraud to me. Clicking the message button, I still had doubts in me. I sent interested and I got a reply right away. I was tasked to write a short review of 120 words of the latest book I read which was The Alchemist that time.
Thank God, I got the job and earned almost 7,000 since April 20. And again I do not have the cash on hand. I already spent it on our basic needs. The job requires me to read books and write my impression towards the story I read.
You may also find ways on how to earn online just like me. If your are good in drawing, someone may commission you. Or if you are also good in writing, you may find a job just like mine.
I am blessed that I earn from the things I love to do: reading and writing. You may never know as you scroll down on your Facebook or Instagram feeds with your smartphone or laptop, you might find a part-time just like how I did. Now is the time to start utilizing those gadgets for something profitable and helpful. I refer to the decent ways of using the internet to earn money, alright? Are we clear on that? And I pray that this post somehow help you with what you are going through right now. Keep safe! God bless!
