With the COVID pandemic people have a lot more time on their hands. This can be a great opportunity to become an entrepreneur. There are a number of examples of people turning their ideas into successful businesses. Here are some ways in which you can join the ranks of the self-employed.

Dropshipping

Dropshipping has become a very popular business model and is one that is accessible to many entrepreneurs. It allows individuals and businesses to sell products to customers by going through a third-party supplier. There is no need for you to keep the products in stock, but instead they are sent out whenever a customer order is placed by the supplier. Setting up a dropshipping company is a very easy process and can be done using a website builder such as Weebly or Shopify. It is important to note that while this is a simple business model that requires only a small investment and very little effort to run, it does need to be promoted the way any traditional business would. If you are looking to sell products such as t-shirts or beauty products, this could be a good option for you.

Selling clothes or old tech products

Selling clothes can be an easy way to make some money online. You will likely have some old clothes in your closet that you might not wear anymore. If these clothes are still in good condition, why not make some money selling them on eBay or Shpock? You could use the money to go shopping and buy some new clothes. The same can be done with older tech products such as a PlayStation, a TV or a phone.

Online surveys

Even though you can potentially make money by filling out surveys online, it is important to know that the pay is usually pretty low. That being said, there are plenty of companies that need people to fill out surveys to help find answers that can help their business.

Forex

The Forex market is another way to make money if you are interested in finances and investments. It requires studying different trading techniques to understand what works best for your strategy and goal. Starting with a simple demo account will allow you to begin to understand what it takes to be successful in the Forex market. If you are interested in becoming a trader, look to increase your knowledge and learn as much as possible about this financial market.

Rent out a room on Airbnb

More and more people are taking advantage of the opportunity to rent out a room, flat, house or even storage space on Airbnb or similar sites. A spare room could quickly turn into a money-making opportunity if you aren’t home a lot. While you are on holiday or on a business trip, consider renting out your home. Some people are even just in need of a storage space and are looking for ways to rent an attic or a basement that is not in use.

Being your own boss is a wonderful thing. You’d be surprised that some of your current hobbies or creative things that you do for fun could turn into a profitable business. Becoming an entrepreneur is easier than some might think. If you have any free time on your hands, use it to your advantage.
