Do you want to learn how to sell printables online? Here’s how you can find printable ideas to sell, how to create printables as a beginner, how to make extra money, and more.

I first talked about selling printables online in How I Make Money Selling Printables On Etsy. Today is time for part two!

Many of you are interested in this, so I asked Cody, the co-founder of E-Printables Side Hustle course, to come back and answer more of your questions. I also asked him to connect me with some of his students of his printables course, so that I could ask them for their best tips.

Learning how to sell printables online can be a fun side hustle because it not only brings out your creative side, but you also only need to create a printable once, and you can sell them an unlimited amount of times.

Cody started with zero graphic design skills and didn’t know how to create printables when he first started. It’s something he learned as he went along.

Are you wondering questions such as:

What is a printable?
Why do people buy printables from Etsy? Is selling printables on Etsy profitable?
What printables sell best on Etsy?
How do you know what to price each printable?
How do I get started selling printables on Etsy?

Today’s article will help you learn how to sell printables online.

Plus, from May 5th (TODAY) to May 9th, 2021 at 11:59 pm ET, you can get $50 off the E-Printables Side Hustle course by using discount code SENSE50.

Also, you can sign up for Cody’s free ebook that helps you figure out where to start when it comes to selling printables on Etsy. This can be a great way to get started and learn how to sell digital downloads on Etsy. [Read more…]

Are you looking for the best travel jobs? Are you wondering, “How can I make money and travel?”

The best travel jobs give you a chance to make money while pursuing your passion of travel.

Travel is a dream for many, but it doesn’t have to just stop there — you can side hustle, or earn a full-time income while traveling the world.

Whether you want to make extra money or if you’re looking for a full-time career, this list of best travel jobs may help you reach your goal to travel more.

Yes, it is quite possible to make money and travel full-time.

Making money holds many people back from traveling more, but it doesn’t have to.

This is because there are many different types of best travel jobs that can make your travel dreams become a reality.

We sold our house, moved into an RV, and started traveling over 6 years ago, and we’ve now been living on a sailboat for around 3 years.

I’ve been location independent since 2013, and have been traveling full-time since 2015.

Because I work a job that allows me to make money while traveling, I have been able to travel extensively, while also being able to pay my bills and save fully for retirement.

Over the years, I’ve met many full-time travelers. There have been people who have saved up enough money to travel for an extended amount of time, those who are retired, those who find odd jobs on the road, those who work some of the best travel jobs I’m about to tell you about, and more.

The majority of the people I have met are not bloggers or Youtubers. I know you see a lot of that online, but the reality is there are many people traveling while working more traditional jobs.

Everyone has their own way of doing things to make full-time travel work, so I’m sure you can find something that will fit you the best. [Read more…]

Hello! Today, I have a great article from Grace Moser about the things she did to reach 200,000 pageviews in one day on her blog. Enjoy!

Hello! I’m so happy to be able to write on Making Sense of Cents again and share some incredible tips with you all.

Quite a bit has changed since 2017 when I last wrote on here, but it’s definitely been a lot of good change.

And as a recap, my husband, Silas, and I started our blog (Chasing Foxes) back in 2016.

After just a few months of hard work, we were able to make our site blow up in late May.

But honestly, none of this would have come around if it hadn’t been for my husband. He had been looking for a way to work online so that he could quit his toxic job and we could travel the world full-time (our dream).

And once we found blogging, we made a plan.

He would work outside the home full-time for a corporate job (since he had a college degree & could make more), and I would stay at home and work on the blog. Then, once he got off work, he’d come home and help me with the blog.

We were super poor, and during that time of us working on the blog, we could have used the extra income (from me working). Our car kept on breaking down in the middle of winter and it was honestly pretty depressing. [Read more…]

How I Flip Garage Sale Items On eBay As A Side Hustle

Hello! Please enjoy this article from a reader, Rush Walters, on how he flips garage sale and auction items on eBay as a side hustle to make extra income.

Depending on who you ask, there are pros and cons to being a high school teacher. One con: income, One pro: having summers off.

Both my wife and I are teachers in a small mid-Missouri town. During my first year (2015) as a high school teacher and head boy’s tennis coach I was making a whopping $38,000 a year.

Needless to say, the budget was tight some months.

When I got married in 2018, I thought a second income would be very helpful, but a second salary would not come until 2019. Long story short, my wife is from Bolivia and was not able to legally work for a year until she received her permanent residency status (green card).

Two people living off of one middle-class paycheck, let alone a teacher’s paycheck, was challenging. Thankfully my wife and I were decent at budgeting, and have been using a successful budgeting process since we have been married, but I’ll save that story for another day. [Read more…]
