Creating multiple revenue streams is a bit like juggling – it takes practice, a sense of timing, and occasionally, a willingness to drop a ball or two before you get it right. I have personally used all of these methods so I can confirm that they do indeed work! With that said, here are 7 different ways you can create multiple revenue streams and make more money from home.

1. Rental Hacking

Have a spare bedroom, a car you don’t use on the weekends or unused storage? Then rent it out!

  • For roommates – I recommend doing a background check if you don’t know the person. It will be an adjustment at first, but the extra $600+ bucks a month is worth it!
  • Renting car out – Sure, you may find a friend or family member to rent your vehicle, if not, I recommend using Turo. Make an easy $200+ bucks a month if you rent your car out on Saturdays.
  • Unused Storage – Personally, I have used Neighbor.com. Depending on where you live, you can make some great extra cash. I live in Long Beach (parking is notoriously bad) and selling your parking spot is an easy 150+ a month!

2. Join Focus Groups

Want to be heard when you love or hate products or services? Focus groups are where it’s at! Not only do you get to try stuff for free, you get to earn cash while doing it. Simply look to see if there’s a local focus group in your area or online. I’ve personally made slightly over $1,000 bucks a year tasting beer, playing video games and using sleep-measuring devices.

3. Freelancing for Fun

This hands down is the most straightforward way to make more money from home (or not from home). I recommend this if your day job isn’t too demanding or if you have free time on the weekends. Graphic design, writing, coding – the gig economy is your oyster! Dive into a freelance marketplace and start picking up projects. Remember, consistency is key; it may start as a trickle, but with dedication, that trickle can turn into a tidal wave.

4. Get into Investing

Money trees do exist! Stocks, crypto, mutual funds – call them the classic trio. Start with a tiny investment; you don’t want to go all in if you are not well-versed in trading. If you’re a beginner, you can use Webull and start investing in blue-chip stocks or putting money in an ETF. For Crypto, I use Crypto.com and you can invest as much or as little as you want in long-term coins such as Bitcoin, Ethereum or Solana. Oh, and did I mention you can make extra dough by referring your friends? This isn’t financial advice, but it’s a solid suggestion!

5. Affiliate Marketing

Are you constantly telling friends or family about apps or products to use? If so, why not make money giving those recommendations? Some apps or software I personally tell people about and make money from are:

  • For Stocks: Webull or MooMoo
  • Digital Designs: Canva
  • Web Hosting: Hostinger

All it takes is word of mouth, a blog, social media presence, or even just a well-placed link in a forum signature. You’re helping folks find what they need, and your bank account thanks you for it.
