There are many ways you can make money online. Some of them are fairly simple while others require more work to be put into them. In my last post, I informed you guys about 15 Things That You Don’t Need And Can Sell To Make Extra Money. Well in this post I will be informing you about products you can make at home and sell on Etsy, Amazon, eBay, or any other site.
Let’s get started!
-
Planner Stickers
- Etsy has a big market for planner sticker businesses. Some of these businesses have actually surpassed making a million dollars just on sticker sales alone so if you want to start an effective side hustle this would be your best bet.
-
Slime
- There has been a slime fever going around the internet for around a year now. I would say though that it was a bit stronger when slime was first made popular on YouTube but now the hype has definitely gone done a bit. However, this does not mean that the demand is not there, as a matter of fact, this could still be a profitable side hustle for you.
-
Soap
- Handmade soap is mostly sold on Etsy, at least from what I have investigated. There are many Etsy shop owners who sell hundreds or thousands per month. If you like scents a lot I would recommend making this product.
-
Drawings/ Paintings/ Illustrations
- When selling art pieces a shop owner on Etsy to sells “prints” of their work to their customers and ship the “print” to them. Some simply sell a file that allows the customers to print the art at home. While others sell the original work, but for more money than the “prints” of course. Selling of this can also be accomplished on sites such as Amazon or eBay. Etsy is the site that will probably make you more profit since more than half the products are handmade and people who shop there are aware of that.
-
Regular Stickers (Non-Planner Stickers)
- Some people on Etsy make a good amount of money just by turning their drawings into stickers. These types of stickers are different than what I classify as “planner stickers” because they tend to be fewer stickers and they are usually illustrations of a made up character.
-
Handmade Jewelry (Bracelets, Necklaces, Rings, etc.)
- If you really like making handmade jewelry then this is the job for you. Etsy also has a huge market for handmade jewelry, which means that it should be easy to make your first sale, with the right method of course. Whether it be beaded jewelry or stamped dainty jewelry your first post is sure to attract a customer.
-
Beaded Purse Charms
- Another side hustle you can do is called a beaded purse charm. It is an extremely beautiful accessory that one can add that really enhances the look of a purse, backpack, or keychain. I would totally recommend trying to sell this product.
-
Shirts
- Handmade shirts can be sold on pretty much everywhere. For this category, I am talking about shirts that are screen printed. Screen printed shirts are sold left and right on Amazon, Etsy, and Ebay. To maximize sales and profit you can sell on all three sites and pocket a large amount of money.
-
Knitted Items
- Let’s face it you don’t knit yourself, then you probably know someone who does. It is a very true statement. Maybe that’s why there are so many knitting shops on Etsy that sell items such as scarves, shirts, sweaters, socks, etc. I personally do not knit myself but I know someone who knits quite a lot.
-
Ceramics
- This is a very special hobby that requires a lot of skill, therefore handmade ceramic items tend to sell for very high prices on the internet. I could only hope that one day I get to try this hobby out. But many people are making huge bank from selling ceramics.
-
Woodworking Products
- Many handmade products are sold mostly because they have more of a handmade rustic look to them. People who buy handmade wood products want pieces that are unique and have a charming look to them. If you know how to make products out of wood such as furniture, tables, or maybe even guitar picks than this is the side hustle for you.
-
Candles
- Wonderful scents are something that people can’t resist when they go into their local Bath And Body Works. When making scents for your online store I would recommend making unique scents that will be pleasant to mostly everyone, so that the customers will come back to buy your candles over and over again.
-
Body Scrubs
- I saw a video on YouTube about an underage girl (can’t remember her exact age) that was making thousands of dollars a month just by selling body scrubs on Etsy. She surprised me by her ability to have a successful business at her age.
-
Other Beauty Products
- The sky is the limit when selling online. There are many people across the world that could buy your products by clicking the checkout button on their screen. The types of handmade beauty products that people sell online are nail polish, eyeshadow, etc.
-
Personalized Goods
- You can sell personalized gift cards, invitations, paper banners for parties, etc. People are always on the lookout for products that they can customize for their specific occasion.
