You've definitely seen them. You've likely been in one.

I'm talking about a party tent that's been rented. You may have attended a wedding, event, or just a good 'ole party, and the host has rented tents, chairs, tables, decorations, and…the list goes on.

But do you know how lucrative that business can be?

Today's guest Adam Keller does!

His tent/party rental business now boasts revenues of $700,000, but he started with renting just 3 tents. He worked that first summer at a gas station and cleaning hotel rooms to save the money to buy tables and chairs for the next season. I love a good entrepreneurial story.

Adam introduces us to that world and how to start it as a side hustle.

His tips and advice are practical and actionable.

By the end of this episode, you'll have a solid overview of the tent/party rental industry, including pricing, startup costs, valuable financial do's and don'ts, like what to spend your money on, and where you should take a pass.

Need a little push (and a lot of guidance!) to start and grow your side hustle?

"This is the craziest ATM machine!"

That's how a friend described his roadside peach stand to today's guest, Shannon Houchin.

She was skeptical. Wouldn't you be?

Wanting to see it firsthand, Shannon travelled to see her friend and learn all that she could about the roadside peach stand business.

After that one summer, she went home and built her own "ATM."

That was 10 years ago. Shannon has fine tuned her operation and earns a solid 6-figure net income per season from her produce stands.

It's a pretty simple business to learn, and Shannon says you can get up and running for as little as $200 dollars in peaches.

Listen in to hear;

• tips for sourcing the fruit, and the key questions to ask,
• pricing considerations,
• finding the best location,
• how she sets up the displays for maximum sales,
• the importance of becoming part of the fabric of the community, and
• clear, actionable success tips for your roadside stand.

Want to thing BIG and stay on track to achieve your goals?

Want to fly first or business class using the least number of points?

Today's guest knows how!

When Spencer Howard realized that credit card points were his ticket to luxury travel he went all in, spending four hours a night for six months reading all the airline routing rules and credit card fine print he could find, to learn how to best navigate award travel and loyalty programs.

What started as a way to get free business and first-class flights for himself, morphed into a side hustle helping others to the same.

His company, Straight to the Points now has a subscriber membership of over 21,0000.

Could becoming skilled at points accumulation become a side hustle for you? Or maybe you could use some expert tips on finding great travel deals? Spencer shares insights for both.

Today we're delving into the world of co-hosting short-term rental properties.

The start up costs can be quite minimal as you don't own the properties, but rather, you're solving a lot of problems for the property owners and you have the opportunity to serve and profit from both them and the guests staying at the properties.

Sean Parker fills us in on the details. Together with his wife Jill, they currently co-host 52 properties and look after close to 65 properties earning them gross revenues in the high 6-figures.

You'll discover,

• Why he pivoted to a model that is "revenue-based" instead of "occupancy-based"
• What can make or break the all important 5-star ratings
• revenue and expenses
• the downside of co-hosting that people don't often talk about, and
• what is currently more profitable: owning a property yourself, or cohosting

To hit new milestones this year and achieve big, bold, beautiful goals, you're going to have to do some things differently than you've done in the past and push yourself to do things you've never done before.

But there's a problem.

Everyone of us is a creature of habit. And it's our habit patterns that hold us back from taking the new actions we know we need to take.

I found a solution.

And it's been a driving force behind EVERY major success I've achieved.

Sharing what it is and how you too can set it up, is the focus of today's short, sweet, yet powerful episode.

Let me know what you think. I'd love to hear your feedback.

Here's a scenario. You've ordered a brand-new treadmill online. It arrives, only for you to discover, it's not really your thing and you want to return it.

You contact the seller. There's a good chance they're not the ones who are going to be picking it up, but rather they'll reach out to a third party that they've contracted with to handle their returns; a company like Sharetown.

Sharetown in turn needs people to physically go to the customers homes and pick up that treadmill or other big and bulky items like mattresses and furniture.

Therein lies the side hustle opportunity.

As a Sharetown rep, you would pick up the almost brand new item, clean it, and then resell it at a profit.

Today's guest is the COO and co-founder of Sharetown, Jorja Leavitt and she reveals;

• what you need to be a rep,
• the process from the time you get notice of a pickup through to when it's sold,
• what expenses you can expect to incur,
• the earning potential, and
• what the top earners are doing to make a healthy living.
