Selling Products that Won’t Clutter Your Home

Maybe you want to generate some extra cash. Maybe you’re saving for a big ticket item. Maybe you’ve always wanted to experience the economic and physical freedom you can get from a home-based business. Maybe your passion is something you can no longer ignore. If you want to be your own boss, but don’t want to begin production on items that will create clutter and chaos in your home, there are some options you may want to consider to get into business for yourself and sell products from home without inventory.

Blogging can make you money.

Blogging can be financially lucrative and requires no mess and no fuss as a product. You can make money by selling CPC or CPM or private advertisements. You can sell digital products like master writing classes, and you can even market how-to videos or online demonstrations. If you write about things that people are interested in, get followers on Instagram and other social media platforms, and then monetize your blog through the sale of merchandise with your brand’s name and logo, you may find some financial freedom in short order.

Some bloggers use a paid membership model that offers premium content on your blog for those members who pay to read, or you may opt to use subscriptions that deliver premium content to those who have contracted to buy your valued information or entertainment.  Choose from among the best Instagram hashtags for your social media sites and ensure that your content titles are searchable. Perfect your content by including relevant and compelling images. Invite guest bloggers to your page and share your expertise with others as a guest writer on another blogger’s page in order to establish yourself as an expert in your field or industry.

Create your own YouTube channel.

YouTube can be an excellent opportunity and serves as a lucrative product for those who like to use the platform regularly.  Vloggers from all walks of life and with all types of expertise and knowledge to sell have found that consumers are willing to subscribe to the channels that feature the kills and opinions they want to know more about. What really matters is finding that balance between what you know and what you’re passionate about and marketing to those who are interested in what you have to say.

Some of the most popular YouTubers do stunts, stream live video game activity, provide valuable parenting hacks, create stand-up comedy, and feature drag shows or health and wellness tutorials. What is more, they make real money doing what they are passionate about! As the second largest search engine available, boasting more than 1.5 billion users per month and feeding over one billion hours a day, YouTube can convert to cash for you if you have something that your followers will want to see and engage with.

Start your own dropshipping business.

If YouTubing isn’t for you and you’re looking for something a little more low-key, you may want to try dropshipping. Dropshipping can provide a sustainable income for those who have a marketable niche idea. Because you don’t have to worry about startup costs, there isn’t much prohibiting you from getting started today. You can open a business quickly with some time and effort, in addition to a viable marketing plan.  It’s important that you manage your expectations of income in the first year or so, as most dropshippers will find that it takes a while to build a following, but the potential long-term is unlimited.

The key to success in dropshipping, according to successful dropshippers, is stocking quality products, building a loyal following, and providing the customer service that will keep your consumers happy. Developing a marketing strategy that helps take your business from a few hundred to thousands of dollars each month is also a critical component. If you find trending products that are available, select dropshipping wholesalers that can consistently keep up with your demand, and set up a well-designed and easily navigable ecommerce website, you should find success in your first year.

Begin Podcasting.

Like a YouTube channel, podcasts function in a series focused around a topic or idea. They are similar to a television show in that each cast is self-contained and does not rely on the preceding or subsequent podcasts for sustainability. Each podcast is an individual digital audio file that you create and then make available on the internet for your subscribers to download to a computer or mobile device. You monetize your podcast by using sponsors, affiliate marketing, crowdfunding, or offering online services or courses.
