Welcome to the world of micro entrepreneurs

Micro entrepreneurship is sharing one’s personal skills or assets and making money through it. Micro entrepreneurship at times would certainly lead to creation of big businesses. 

I believe that in this new digital world, everyone is empowered by technology to add value to the economy, capture a fair share of the value added and become a millionaire. 

You may invest your spare time in any of these ideas and build a moneymaking machine. By becoming a part time entrepreneur, you are helping the world by making it more efficient. 

In this blog post, I have collected nine ways to make money even while you are asleep. Who does not like to make that extra money? 

1.     Use social shopping websites 

This is a market innovation in the social marketing space. Homegrown websites like https://www.fulpy.com/ are leading in the game in India. 

To make money, apply to the website for an affiliate and then share the products that you like. When a user likes the product, clicks it and makes the purchase you get a fair share of the affiliate commission 

2.     Sell using your own Facebook store

You can create a facebook store and start selling your products. It is free and does not require any technical assistance. 

To make money, join flipkart affiliate program. Create a niche store with products that you like and link them to flipkart after appending your affiliate id. Share the products in your store with your contacts and other visitors. When they make a purchase, you will receive your commission.        

3.     Set up your own you tube channel

Content is the king and video is the new ruler. It is possible to have a youtube channel and make a lot of money from it. 

To make money, define your videos with focus on your audience. Understand your audience and begin writing the scripts. Shoot the videos, edit them and tweak it to your audience to make it rock. Put your audience before income and income will follow. 

4.     Sell stock photos online 

All you need is a mobile phone with a good camera. Click the pictures, edit it to represent a theme and put it up online. Magazines, brochures, websites, design agencies look for the right photos and are willing to pay royalty to use the photos. 

To make money, find the right website to upload your class of photos. There are multiple stock photo sites like stutter stock, adobe stock images, Fotolia, Alamy, etc.  

5.     Create a niche comparison site or deal site

Everyone loves to get a deal. Deal sites promote the products from participating retailers and make money when the user claims the deal. There are multiple word press deal sites available for sale. 

To make money, use a niche strategy. Buy the site that represents your strategy. Sign up with an affiliate marketing service provider (Rakuten, eBay, Amazon etc.), who helps to sign up with multiple retailers. Select the deals that your customers would like and populate the site with the daily deals. 

6.     Freelance Blogging

Create your own blog in blogger.com. Then sign up with the link share websites that would automatically track the links and pay you. Write good blog posts and make yourself visible. 

To make money, offer your blogging services. Companies actively seek good bloggers and pay you to write articles. They understand that bloggers influence purchase decisions. You will be paid for writing content. Also, you have the rights to post it in your blog post. When someone clicks on the link and buys any product, your link share company will track and pay you. 

7.     Create online courses

Many platforms allow individuals to create and deliver course content. If you have any skill (playing music instruments, drawing, plumbing, carpentry, photography, website design), you may teach it to the ones who are seeking to learn. 

To make money, structure the skill that you would like to teach. Research about it, structure it and make it into a full-scale online course. Sign up with websites like udemy, chalkstreet, skillshare and deliver it online.
