WORKSHOPS

Make a plan to start your hustle in 28 days or less.

You need more than one source of income. You know this is true—but you’re also busy, so you can’t spend an eternity trying all sorts of different things that may not work.

This brand-new, in-person workshop (NOT available online) will show you exactly how to set up your first—or your fifth—hustle.

6 Things You’ll Learn

  • Discover profitable ideas using the skills you already have
  • Go from Idea to Action: a proven process to get started quickly
  • Master a simple tool to help you choose between multiple ideas
  • Divide your limited time to work only on what’s essential
  • Understand all you need to know about business licenses, bank accounts, and taxes
  • Make more money once you’re up and running (without spending a lot of extra time)

Don’t See Your City?

Let me know where you live! I’ll use your input to decide on future workshop locations. If we get enough people together in your city, I’ll be there.

The Society has helped me think about how to market my current skills and use them to their full potential. Within one week of launching, I landed a big client!

It got my brain going in a big way. I came up with ideas on how to deal with problems and how to generate multiple income streams.

Chris gave me the confidence that I needed to start a new project in my 50s. My side hustle is home organizing, where I donate excess items to people in need. It’s added so much meaning to my life!

Lisa Holtby | Home Organizer

I have gotten so many customers ever since my featured episode was posted! Even 3 months later, not a day goes by without receiving multiple visits to my Etsy shop directly from the site.

Sarah Miller | Sarah Paints Pets

Chris and his team are outstanding—I've gotten many new subscribers and clients from being part of the podcast and the book, not to mention the credibility it brings to my side hustle.

Shannon Mattern | WP + BFF

After I read The $100 Startup, I went from making $200 a week to making $3,000 in seven days. What a leap!

FAQs

Have Questions? We might have answers.


HOW DO I KNOW IF THIS IS FOR ME?

Side Hustle School is designed for anyone who’d like to have another source of income, but doesn’t have much time and needs help getting it off the ground. It doesn’t matter if you hate your day job and are trying to escape or if you love your day job and have no plans to ever leave—either way, a side hustle can help you, and this intensive, live workshop will set you up with a step-by-step plan.

Side Hustle School is probably not for you if you are already a successful, serial entrepreneur (that’s not who I’m trying to serve with this project), or if you’re not willing to learn a new process and follow it for at least 30 days after the workshop concludes.

CAN I BRING A GUEST?

Out of respect for others, we ask that only registered attendees come to the workshops. The setting is designed to be small and intimate to make sure that each person there feels well-supported.

WILL I BE ABLE TO ASK QUESTIONS AT THE WORKSHOP?

Of course! I’ll be teaching a specific process for much of the time, but there will also be a chance to ask questions at several points along the way. We’ll also have a few “Hotseats” where the entire group will offer input and feedback—but only if you want that. It’s also okay to be totally anonymous if you prefer.

WHAT IF I DON’T HAVE AN IDEA FOR MY SIDE HUSTLE?

That’s okay! There are two basic problems that most people face when trying to start a new hustle: they don’t have an idea, or they don’t know how to turn their idea into action. The course curriculum addresses each problem in significant detail, showing you how to generate ideas and how to make them happen.

WILL THIS BE REPEATED? I WANT SIDE HUSTLE SCHOOL TO COME TO MY CITY!

Maybe! But right now the initial events are all I’m doing, so if you’re anywhere near the listed cities, try to make it. If you’d like to get first notice of future events, add your name in the “Don’t see your city?” box below the map. The more people who sign up for any particular city, the more likely I’ll be able to bring the event there.

WHAT IF I REGISTER AND AREN’T ABLE TO COME?

Registration for each event is non-refundable. You can, however, transfer your registration to a person of your choice at any time up to three days before the workshop. If you need to do that, email us with the full name, email address, and mailing address of the person you’d like to take your place.
