LISTENER Q&A:

Our listener questions for this week come to us from Wyatt, Amanda, and Jane:

  • Wyatt has been brainstorming ideas, but he doesn't want to invest in something that isn't going to be feasible long-term. He asks if there's a way to research whether or not an idea is feasible or something that will be in-demand before you get too far down the path.
  • Amanda and her boyfriend have already started their side hustle selling a healthy, superfood-based fudge, but now that they've launched, they're looking for ways to create an elevator pitch in order get their product out to there.
  • Jane has been inspired by Side Hustle School and is looking for a side hustle of her very own, but she doesn't feel that she has the kind of skills necessary to start many of the side hustles we've featured on the show. She's looking for side hustles that cater to those "regular folk" out there without technological or artistic skills.
