    4 Online Work Ideas to Support Your Growing Business

    When you’re building your own business, it goes without saying that you have a lot on your plate. But finances are tight when you’re bootstrapping your business, and any extra income can help you get the funding you need to grow and scale faster. Here are four online work ideas to help you support your growing business.

    Freelance Writing

    There is a huge market for content writing in today’s world. Marketing is driven by content, so businesses, brands, and even individuals are always in need of people to help them write that content. To help you make some extra money to supplement your online business, sign up for freelance networks where you can enlist your services and write articles and content for businesses in need.

    Some places where you can sign up include Freelancer, Upwork, and Fiverr. If you have another service you can offer, such as graphic design or digital marketing consulting, you can sign up to offer that too. Other entrepreneurs constantly turn to these networks for help with production, so there will be no shortage of work for you to jump on. Just make sure you don’t get so wrapped up in making money on the side that you neglect your growing business – that’s what’s going to be the real money-maker for you in the long-run.

    Taking Surveys Online

    One of the original ways to make extra money online was by participating in online surveys and focus ground for compensation. With the rise of social media and other data collection platforms, the need for data collection has only increased over the last few years, which means more survey-taking opportunities for the general public. Plus, since paid surveys can easily be taken at home, or from any location where the user can access a computer, they are very easy to do.

    Another great advantage of surveys is that they don’t take up much brain power, so you won’t need to worry about wasting creative energy on them. You can stay focused on other more deserving tasks.

    Selling Products Online

    In the last few years, ecommerce has seen a massive boom. With online marketplaces like Etsy, and the rise of platforms like Shopfify, you can get started with selling a product online in a matter of days, if not hours.

    If you can find a cost-effective product to sell, and get someone else to handle the drop-shipping, then this is one of the best possible scenarios to start earning passive income to support your growing business.

    Write a Book

    Speaking of passive income, another great way to gain passive income to support your business, as well as build your authority and credibility as a business owner is by writing a book. There is a huge market for self-publishing, and if you’re able to power through writing a manuscript, you can very easily get some needed help to publish a book online, and do some promotions. The money from book sales will help supplement your income, and boost your authority in your field.
