Jen “Odd” Glantz here! I’ve spent the week collecting some odd ways people are making money right now. I’m sharing 7 of those ways with you below. Hope these spark ideas for you to off and so something a little more odd, either as a full-time gig or a side hustle.
Just know, if you have an idea, put it in motion and test it out. Find a way to do that without spending a ton of cash upfront. Some of the most successful businesses happened from an odd idea.
As always - Jen here, cheering you on.
PS. I have (1) open spot for 1:1 coaching this month. These go fast so if you ever wanted to work together on a life-career-side hustle strategy, I’ve got your back.
