WEEKLY CHECK-IN: Each week, there will be a new question and an opportunity for you to share your side hustle journey on the show! Now that we've been doing this for a while, do you have a side hustle idea or one that you're actively working on, and if so, what is it? To send in your response either leave me a voice message, call our Side Hustle Hotline at 844-9-HUSTLE (844-948-7853), or make a voice memo on your phone and email it to me at podcast@sidehustleschool.comLISTENER Q&A: Our listener questions for this week come to us from Kunal in India and Heather in Arizona:
- Kunal has been listening to the show for a while now, and he's been inspired to start a podcast of his very own in his local language featuring business minded people and experts! Of course, this would be the first time Kunal has tried to do something like this, so he's not quite sure where to start and is looking for a plan that he can use to get started.
- Heather has decided to launch a side hustle selling kits for a niche market that she has lots of experience in, but she doesn't really have much experience selling online. Being the research junkie that she is, she's overwhelmed by all of the different options and opinions online. She wants to keep her costs low, but at this point, she'd rather pay someone with lots of experience who can tell her what to do. Her question—does this kind of 1-on-1 coaching exist?
CHRIS' RECOMMENDATIONS: If you're like Kunal in one of today's listener questions, here are some resources to help you start your own podcast.
