A note from Chris Portland, Oregon
Every day since January 1, 2017, I've shared one person's solution to a familiar problem: how to earn more without waiting for permission.
After 3,478 episodes, the patterns are the useful part. You can see which ideas keep working, how people find customers, what they charge, where they get stuck, and how they adjust.
I built the anthology so you can use those patterns when you have a decision to make. Maybe you're looking for an idea. Maybe you already have one and need to figure out the next move. Either way, you can find a relevant example without trying to remember which episode it was.
What it helps you do
Use what worked. Learn from what didn't.
Make fewer expensive guesses
See how other people priced, launched, found customers, and adjusted when the first plan didn't work.
Get moving again
When you're stuck, pull up the kind of story, tactic, or resource you need and decide what to do next.
What backs it up
When you need an example, you'll have 3,478.

From Side Hustle School listeners
Real people have already put these ideas to work.
I've learned so much, and it's got me really inspired. I put an ad on Craigslist yesterday, and I already got someone who wants to hire me.
Side Hustle School has shown me how to look for hustle ideas everywhere, which is truly a new skill that I'm getting better at every day.
I've started a side hustle as a freelance designer and developer, and your podcast has been a great resource.
