If you are looking for an easy way to earn extra cash, it feels like you don't need to be far from your phone. There are several apps designed to make money easily for you, such as Ibotta, Paribus, Swagbucks, Acorns, and Mercari. Some more, these applications can make your money continue to grow as if it is working for you. However, keep in mind that almost all the applications offered to require some of your personal data. Make sure that you pay attention to the app's privacy policies before you download or use them.
Get paid for your creative skills
Do you have creative skills but are not using them as a potential source of your income? Actually, you can be freelance and get more income during your free time. Several sites out there like Fiverr can connect creative people like you with people who need creative services. The site connects freelancers who specialize in writing, editing, graphic design, and sound processing to work with clients who require creativity.
It is recommended that you prepare a profile (almost like a resume) that potential employers can judge to see your experience, rates, and specialties.
Become an influencer
If you have a large following on social media platforms like Facebook and Instagram, you might consider becoming an influencer. However, as an influencer, you need to have an image or value so that it will be easier to build partnerships with potential partners. You can start with making great quality content, involving your followers, and perhaps join the influencer group or community. Beside that you also need to build an image before doing promotional steps and make money as an influencer. With a good image, you will be better known as a quality influencer, have high credibility, and be trusted so that there will be many partners or brands out there interested in working with you.
Take online surveys
One of the easy ways to get additional income and you can make money anywhere and anytime, even with only a cellphone or laptop, is to fill out and join an online paid survey site. Nowadays, there are many paid online survey sites, which provide rewards for their respondents. Usually, this survey is conducted for various purposes, such as public interests, companies, and trademarks. After you fill out the survey, you will get a reward in the form of shopping vouchers or cash via PayPal. However, the chance to earn money from online paid survey sites depends on the respondent's country of origin, and even though it can't be used as a full-time job, participating in a survey site can be your side job to get additional income.
When you are looking for any information about online surveys or paid surveys, google will present you with so many web pages for your keyword search. Unfortunately, not all that you read is trustworthy. Some scammers might use the opportunity to fool you. Be aware and know the things legitimate survey companies will never do in order to get you to join.
Sign up to them all. By joining as many paid survey sites as possible, it will increase your chances of earning more money. You'll always have a survey to answer rather than waiting for a survey or two that may only show up in a month. You can always unsubscribe to those survey sites if you do not like their services. Next, set up an alias email. Actually, you don't have to do this. However, it's a good idea to set up a separate email for all survey site accounts you have registered. It can help you to be able to log in every day easily and see the surveys offered by these survey sites (without spamming your personal inbox). Moreover, you also need to check your email regularly.
