 Hi everyone, I'm Darlene coming at you from Arizona and I'm Emma coming to you from San Diego, California. Few people are lucky enough to love their nine to fives 100 percent. That's right Emma and more and more people are finding themselves doing something else on the side either to add to their income or to feed their passion. And that's what we're going to cover today. Three ways to ramp up your side hustle. So let's look at what it takes to take it to the next level. Number one, stop treating your side gig as a hobby. Many people should be able to keep the safe nine to five job and dabble in the side hustle without taking that risk. Well now maybe the time to get serious. If you ride in the safety of your regular job, start thinking about what it would take to make it bigger. Do you need to hustle on having more inventory? Maybe you need to get serious about marketing outside of your local farmers market. It might just be the time to get your website and online store stocked up and start letting your circles know that you're now committed to it full time. With many people not working or working from home and saving time on a commute, use that time to put both feet into your passion project. Number two, sit down and make a plan. You need to project how much you need to sell, how you'd market it and more importantly, what is that going to make and what will it cost you? If you know you need to sell 400 jars per month of your homemade beeswax candles to make ends meet. Well you should be running the math on how long it'll take you to make that and market that. You also have to ship it to the customer and accept payment as well as handle customer service. So start with getting the plans written down. Also make sure your online store and website reflects the outputs. Make sure your store is inventory updated and return policy posted. And number three, find a partner. If you find that in all of your planning that you can't market alone or handle making or shipping everything alone, it may be time to have a partner. Now this doesn't necessarily mean you need employees. You might find that using a tool like GoDaddy's websites plus marketing platform may help you manage multiple stores and inventory which frees up some of your time to focus on making product. Yeah or partnering with Amazon to hold and ship your inventory so you can handle getting stuff made. Think smart. You don't need to do it all to be successful. That said, finding partners can also mean tapping into your family to help with some tasks. Maybe you're not a product company and your business is about offering a service. Use tools to help your customer self-serve when it comes to bookings so you can focus on maximizing your time. And once you've mapped out your course to ramp things up, you'll at least know where you need to ask for help. So there you have it. Three ways to ramp up your side hustle. We hope these ideas help you take your side hustle to the next level. I'm Darlene. And I'm Emma. Stay safe and stay healthy.
