Hello Guys,
Carrying on from my last post, I have listed down few things that a woman can take up part time to either simply pursue her hobbies or to make money:
1. Online selling/reselling - There are numerous sites available where you can simply register yourself and start selling. There are sites where you can actually build your network. Create your own page on social media or post your items for sale on various groups available. These days you do not have to keep stock with you. There is plenty of opportunity available where you can actually purchase when you have a confirmed order. This minimizes the risk completely and all you need is to do a little advertising/networking. One website which is really helpful and I recommend strongly is Local Queen.
2. Freelancing - If you are a specialist in a certain field and hold a degree but cannot work in a 9-6 job, then freelancing is for you. Just surf online and you will find websites where you can register, showcase your skill and generate business from all over the world. This may be a little tricky to get first few clients but once started the whole world is open.
3. Tiffin service - Ladies out there good in cooking can definitely start their small tiffin service in near by areas. Marketing can be done by putting posters and emails in apartments. Word of mouth also plays an important role here. If you can invest a little money initially, you may also open a small food outlet. This is mostly relevant is big cities where lot of students and working professionals are looking out for home made healthy food.
4. Story Telling - This unique concept is gaining a lot of popularity and yes you can earn decent money. If you are expressive and can handle kids then this is for you. This is not much time consuming and you can have only one story telling session to start with for an hour. You can add props to make it more interesting and fun. Mrs Shruti Pathak, a resident on Navi Mumbai had started her story telling sessions last year with 8 kids. She plans to take this up during session breaks or summer vacations. After gaining experience you may conduct these sessions in playschools and day care.
5. Blogging - Expressing your views online can actually help you earn. Just choose a topic of your interest and if you have decent writing skills you can either start your own blog or work as content writer for websites and yes they pay well.
6. If writing is not your cup of tea, you may consider recording videos and uploading it on social media/Youtube. These videos can be informative, or small workshops in your area of interest. However, the content needs to strong to generate views and followers.
7. Teaching - Start coaching classes at home. Start with a very nominal fee with one or two students. Online teaching options are also available. If you are well educated or a degree holder then you can consider tying up with local institutes to impart education.
8. Event Planning - If you have a niche for creativity and is always up to organize birthday parties and other family events, then you may definitely consider taking this up professionally. Start with birthday parties or cradle ceremonies in your own family.
9. Day care/Playschool - Open a day care at home if you love children. Or consider becoming a teacher at a playschool.
10. If art and craft was your favorite subject at school or you have an urge to create useful stuff from waste material, you may consider making handmade and cost effective home decor items. Start giving them out to near ones as free samples or gifts.
11. Fitness freaks - Ladies who are fitness experts or enjoy yoga, aerobics or Zumba can undertake these classes in their apartment or even at schools after obtaining proper certifications.
12. Baking - This is again a very good option to start at home. Baking cakes and cupcakes for birthday parties and slowly taking it up to the next level.
13. Last but not the least, women who just wanna do some social service with a non profit motive can join hands with NGO's and groups on social media to provide free education to the deprived ones in their free time.
These are few things that I came across and found interesting. Will try taking these up in detail in my next posts.
Let me know if this helps and also if I missed on anything important.
Go Ladies.. We all have a wonder women inside us:)
