Do you have more bills to pay or your current job isn’t doing much for you? Supplementing your income might just be what you need. Think of something you love to do that other people can benefit  from, something that you can easily execute and make money from. This will be your side hustle. Side hustles are a great way to earn extra income while exploring your passion.

As a matter  of fact, some successful  entrepreneurs started their brand as a side hustle. A side hustle is a person’s first step towards financial independence and flexibility. It is essential for supplementing income.

Are you thinking of starting a side hustle? Here are the five easy steps.

1. Do your research and know your market

Because this is a side hustle doesn’t mean you have to drop market research. For your side hustle to start, investing  in market research before entering any market or niche helps you understand your potential customers’ needs and wants and where competition may come into play later on down the line.

2. Create a plan for your side hustle

Yes. It’s that serious. Money is involved here so you must take this seriously. A business plan is an essential tool for any entrepreneur. Set your goals, and how you plan on achieving them. A solid set of goals can be very beneficial regardless of whether you decide to turn your hobby into a full-time career or simply want to ensure that everything falls into place as it should.

3. Start off small

Start off your side hustle as a small project and see how you feel about it. This test will help you decide if this is what you really want to go further with or not. If not, on to the next. Test the waters before making a larger commitment.

4. Spot your audience

Identify the people that are interested in and are willing to purchase what you want to sell or market. They are your target audience and they  play a significant role in establishing your unique selling point and determining any future promotions and advertising.

5. Be realistic about your side hustle and expectations 

Consider whether you’re capable of achieving what you want and how much time it will take before deciding if that is an achievable goal. Don’t forget that you have a day job. Try to see how you can balance it with your side hustle because side hustles can turn out to be demanding as well.
