10 Ways To Make Money In Your Sleep

Hello Jewells! In this blog post, I wanted to put together side hustles that can help you make money in your sleep.

I am 22 years old and I have 10 streams of income! It wasn’t always this way, but when I decided to get serious a year ago, step by step I created these avenues, and you can too.

YouTube Channel

For the past two years, I have been consistently grinding on YouTube and working towards having ads on my videos. This summer I finally became a YouTube partner!

This means that I get paid per clicks on the ads of my videos. It is not a lot, but that is why many YouTuber’s talk about how they have multiple streams of income.

If you want to read about how I became a YouTube partner, you can read my blog post about it here.

Influencer Marketing

I make a portion of my money from brand deals. This could be deals that I have initiated myself, one’s that find me, or from third-party influencer marketing agencies!

I have a whole blog post on how to work with brands if you are interested in making money from your presence on social media!

I always recommend making a media kit with your rates that you send to companies!

Free Lance

I also make an income from my freelance gigs as a creative. I am a photographer and a video editor! Or I will make money from my social media marketing for other companies! Freelance pretty much just covers any random side gig that I make money from.

Ebook

This year I published my first ebook, becoming an influencer. This is a side hustle that also brings in money. I have always heard that to have a successful online brand, sell digital products!

Podcast

Podcasting is another way to monetize! With Anchor, you can upload your podcasts free to Apple and Spotify. It also allows you to sponsor your content!

I am the host of “becoming an influencer” podcast and make a small amount per 1,000 listens!

You can stream my podcast on Spotify or Apple Podcasts!!

Blog Ads

The ads that you see on my website/ blog make me a stream of income! It is like a penny per click or something not impressive, BUT it is still money that I can make in my sleep!

If you are reading this, thank you! And if you are clicking on my ads, thank you for supporting this blog!

Investments

I make money from my investments! I use the app Robinhood to buy and trade stocks. It is super easy, and I lucked out with my Tesla stock! Stocks are the perfect examples of making money in your sleep. I have a whole blog post on how I started investing in my 20’s!

Affiliate Marketing

I also make a small commission from affiliate links! I use Reward Style and Amazon Affiliates to link products on my blog, Instagram stories, and YouTube videos! If you shop my links it really helps me out and I can’t thank you enough!

If you are interested in making money by being an affiliate- you should apply to those two programs I mentioned.

Talent Management

I have recently started dabbling in talent management! This means, if a creator I am managing gets a brand deal that I initiated- I will get a percentage of the deal! This is a new avenue I am just getting started with.

Depop

And of course, depop! I love listing my clothes on my Depop shop to make a few bucks from my clothes. I hate clothes going to waste, so I love selling them. If you want to learn how to sell clothes on Depop, I will link my blog post here!

Thank you so much for reading this blog post! I hope it inspires you to create avenues of income for yourself so you can make money while you sleep!

Xoxo,
