How I Make $350 for 20 Minutes of Work

How I Manage to Make $1,050/Hour With This Side Hustle

I really contemplated titling this story such a clickbait-driven headline but I like to keep it simple and the title is true. I do make $350 for 20 minutes of work (more like 10 minutes of work now that I’ve been doing it a few months).

I’ll show you what I do, how I do it, how much I’ve made and how you can do the same.

Let’s go!

Do I really make $1,050/hour?

Well technically, yes.

I don’t want you to think about this like I work 40 hours a week at $1,050/hour and make $42K a week. It’s not like that. At All.

I work a total of around 4.5 hours per month, a little less actually and make roughly $4,500 per month from this side hustle.

I do 15 tasks per month that pay me $350 each and when I first started, it did take me about 20 minutes to do. Now it takes me 10 minutes.

I do these tasks from home, using my phone and tablet. I’m usually sitting on my bed or on the couch when I do it. I don’t have to talk to anybody. It’s all computer/phone work.

Yes, I can do all 15 tasks at once and batch create.

I usually don’t but, I can.

My income from this side hustle stands to increase over time. Initially, I was making around $300/month from this, then $1,000/month, now $4,500/month minimum. I expect to be making $5K to $8K steadily every month, by summer.

So, what the heck is this side hustle?

The mystery side hustle

Content creation on Tik Tok.

Are you surprised?

I happen to have a social media following of over 50K on one of my Tik Tok accounts so, brands want to work with me in the niche I serve to share their products and services.

That’s how I’m able to charge $350 per Tik Tok video, making $4,500/month minimum.

Could you do this?

Yes.

Would a social media following be required?

Yes and no.

One way to make money through content creation is to use your own audience. So if you have an audience on a social network like Tik Tok, Instagram, etc. then you can use it to make money with brand deals, which is what I do.

You can also make money creating content for brands if you have no audience at all.

Make money content creating, no social media following or audience required

I’ve made as much as $750 for content creation for a brand that didn’t require I post to social media!

Where do you find these opportunities?

There are a lot of places you can turn to.

I’m in a few groups that email and text me these opportunities that I can apply to.

One of them is called CreatorX.

Another website you can check out is Upwork.

There are tons of content creation jobs posted daily there.

If this kind of stuff is interesting to you, here are some other stories I’ve written about it…

And, if you have a social following but don’t know how to work with brands, my course teaches you how to make more money with brand deals. It’s the strategy I personally use to make thousands every month from social media.
