Side Hustle Hero

Jayne Havens is both a skilled sleep consultant and a thriving 6-figure entrepreneur. Today she gives us tips for both.

And here's a fun fact. According to Jayne, being a successful sleep consultant for babies and toddlers doesn't require you to be a parent yourself. She makes a compelling case for why this is true.

You'll also hear;

• what life is like for a sleep consultant,
• what your starting fees should be,
• a simple step to pre-qualify any prospect to ensure they're willing to pay your fee,
• setting up boundaries so you're not taken advantage of by clients, and
• a most effective and efficient way to grow your business.

If you've been working hard, doing your best, and your financial situation isn't improving, stop. Take a listen. You might simply be missing this one key element.

When it comes to financial freedom, mindset matters.

A prosperous mindset isn't just about positive thinking; it's the secret sauce behind making wise financial decisions and opening doors to new opportunities.

I'll share with you how to develop the internal mindset of a prosperous person—so that when money is mentioned, it brings feelings of joy and possibilities, and positive expectations.

I began studying these principles in my late teens, buying my first house at age 19, and have been financially free for years. Know that if you want to improve your financial results, it all starts with your prosperous money mindset.

And that's exactly what we're diving into today.

Billy Thorpe is an Amazon Influencer who follows a "low ticket, high frequency" business model. In his case, the price he charges to create a short video is low, but he produces at a high volume.

He's done over 3,100 of them for over 500 clients.

They send him products at their expense, and Billy creates Shoppable Videos which he'll then upload and tag on Amazon. These videos are featured on product listings, related pages, and his Amazon Storefront.

In this episode, Billy delves into his three lucrative income streams, from which he earned $113,000 in his first year.

He walks us through what's involved in applying to become an Amazon Influencer, highlighting what Amazon looks for in a strong application. It's not necessarily a huge following!

He shares his innovative strategy for increasing revenue through "shared usage rights," where brands can repurpose his content for their own marketing.

Plus, he pinpoints what you need to pay particular attention for success in this business.

Be sure to stick around for the Wrap-Up where I share why you need multiple sources of income (MSI's), to ensure your financial security.

Christine Schaub didn't just start one side hustle. After the unexpected demise of her employer, Christine turned to hustling and has successfully replaced her full-time income by stacking six side hustles.

When I first sat down with Christine, I expected a quick chat about her six ventures before diving into her book, "The Queen Of The Side Hustle."

But as our conversation unfolded, I found myself with more and more questions about her diverse ventures, and how she manages to stack them, sometimes tackling 4, 5, and even all 6 in a single day!

So in this episode, we stay focused on each of her side hustles and share valuable tips along the way.

Christine's ventures include;

• teaching piano,
• pet sitting,
• gardening,
• running a YouTube channel,
• writing, and
• cooking in clients' homes for dinner parties (which she considers the most profitable niche in catering).

We cover a lot of ground in a short amount of time, offering insights into each that just might inspire your next side hustle.
