It depends on what you’re willing to do, what you’re good at doing, how much you want to make, and how much time you want to put into a side hustle.

For me, I enjoy small business consulting as a side hustle. I get a rewarding balance of additional income and helping people. There are always people needing outside perspectives especially if they are a specialist in their own field such as a baker with a PhD in biochemistry. They may not have experience or knowledge in some aspects of running a business. Providing services to establish their initial bookkeeping system, developing a marketing plan, and identifying new growth strategies are all things businesses in your market may need. If you have more of a marketing and communications background with a knack for IT, you may be good at positioning yourself as an IT marketing specialist.

There are plenty of people who honestly don’t have a clue how to be an effective independent consultant and the output of their services are vague and useless. Find a problem someone needs fixed and do it. Write a success story and find your niche.

Be open minded and you can find ways to apply what you know and are good at doing.
