How to make extra money with a part-time job

My approach is to combine my main business to extend my side business. For example, I use EXCEL very much in my daily life, and I need to deal with a lot of data to do the corresponding user analysis and customer stratification. Therefore, EXCEL's pivot table, vlookup and other functions are more skillful, so I thought of whether it is possible to pass the idle fish to sell their skills, then opened the seafood market vice road.

Results: As of today, there have been 5 single transactions. There are also 3 single is direct wx, *** count 315 yuan. (10 days)

Small progress

Process: began to send a, I do not know what is the reason, was downgraded and penalized 7 days, I thought about it, may be incomplete information and so on, the platform think it is a scam. So, I wrote a profile, associated with the sesame score, and then refer to the copywriting of others released, the release is normal.

Starting out, the daily exposure is not much, the initial dozens, but the vice is to insist, I insist on polishing the baby, others reply to see immediately back to enhance the response rate. Exposure slowly take off, up to 100-200 or so, but every day there will be sporadic people to ask. Every few days will be out of 1 single so. (Initially, if someone to ask, it is best to ask the other party's needs, even if the other party to give the price is very low, you can try to do it. It is a process of building confidence in yourself and believing that you can make money through your side hustle. At the same time, it's also a process of bargaining and output, gradually finding the pricing that works for you. For example; after spending an hour and delivering satisfactory results at the end, but only reaping $5/$10, is that really worth it? So, the next time you price, you are more confident to negotiate with the other party, and you don't regret to give up some low unit price orders).

As of now out of the single: 1 single to do equity structure chart (with smart art). 1 single to write formulas, 3 single to do charts, 4 single is vlookup function to do table.

A little insight is:

1, to have confidence in themselves. Need to overcome the "this will not be too simple, no one needs", and "if encountered difficult needs, I will not do the psychological." These are normal mental states, but when you go ahead and do it, you won't worry about it. In addition, the biggest benefit of being your own boss is that you get to decide whether to accept the order or not, so don't be afraid of being unasked for and rejecting people.

2. Don't be afraid of the difficult mentality. If you come across something you can't do, don't be the first to refuse! You can refuse, but you can also try yourself first can learn and pick up, really can't then politely decline. First began a young lady asked me the question, I simply can not understand, but there is a little idea, Baidu, the result is 3 formulas. So learned a new 2 formulas, but also smooth delivery! (This single only charged 5 yuan)

3, do not be thin-skinned, the talk about money, or have to talk first. There are also some asked, get the answer, then go straight away. Also let me a little bit distressed, I'm too afraid of bargaining. Later on, I thought of exercising myself, sincerely talk to others about the price, really the other side can not accept, even if, but also received good feedback. Buyers and sellers are not benevolent. People come to inquire single, indicating that he has this demand, but perhaps because of the budget or various reasons, temporarily unable to agree on the price. Politely rejected, in addition to leaving a good impression on others, but also invariably may have accumulated a long-term customer base.

Some good feedback

4, earning money is important, but not the most important. Preferably it can be a supplement to your main business, and if you can learn something, it will also help your growth. The process of taking orders found that I will find that the original Excel has this kind of use, or this is more efficient, there will be a kind of game to unlock a new map feeling. It's kinda fun, hahaha. At times like this, while the monetary value may not be high, we also reap the emotional value, don't we?

The above is a little sharing of the money I've made so far in Idle Fish after working part-time. Although the money is not much, but also harvested a different life experience, but also hope to bring a little help and ideas for you to make money outside of working.
