Earning more is a completely normal desire. You develop professionally, acquire new skills, gain experience. All this should be paid decently and more and more. At the same time, tariffs and prices are increasing, so it is wrong and unprofitable to earn the same amount for years.
We want to teach you ways to earn more without working 24/7.
You may be in a different situation. Therefore, we will consider the most common of them and what can be done to increase income.
Situation 1: work 5 days a week from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m
Most likely, after work you are tired and you don’t want anything anymore. And the weekend is spent on household chores and rest. How to act here? – Emphasize work:
if you are an employee with experience, you can ask for a promotion. Carrying out more difficult tasks with more responsibility = higher salary (actually, not always, but in most cases this is true);
ask for a premium Ask the management what tasks you can complete in order to receive a bonus at the end of the month. If you have achieved your goal, do not hesitate to remind about it during the payment of salary;
improve your skills and productivity. Increased speed and better work performance can be a reason to ask for a bonus.
What we definitely don’t recommend doing is working after hours or on weekends. The first weeks may be easier, but then you will feel the exhaustion of the body. Remember that rest is just as important as work.
Situation 2: part-time working week
Here the situation is different: several days a week you work all day or in shifts, and the rest of the week you have days off. Yes, some days you will have exclusively for rest and your own affairs. But there are still more opportunities for part-time work.
What can you think of in such a situation:
all previous tips about bonuses and promotions remain relevant;
find another job. We are not talking about working without days off. But if you have a light workload at your first job and have enough time and energy to work on another one, why not? But always keep the balance between work, leisure and personal life in focus.
Situation 3: you are still a student and want to combine studies with work
Interesting situation. On the one hand, you still have a lot of energy and enthusiasm. On the other hand, you are tied to the class schedule and limited in time. Most often, students in such a situation do not have much choice and agree to available offers.
But even in such a situation, we have a few ideas for you, how to make extra money. By the way, these tips are universal, so they will work for everyone.
5 ideas on how to make extra money in any situation
Idea 1: Get tutoring. Do you know a foreign language, mathematics or any other subject? Why not get yourself some students and give private lessons. So you will improve your knowledge, and you will feel the arrival of additional funds.
Idea 2: use your talents. Organize your own dance club, drawing school or volleyball lessons. If you have talent, this is a good opportunity to pass on some of your knowledge to others. And earn extra, of course, as well.
Idea 3: find tasks on the website https://kabanchik.ua/ua. This is an online service where people post tasks and look for a performer. The work is very different: from “transferring data into a table” to “cleaning the apartment”. The site has sections, so you can search immediately in the category you are interested in. The advantage of this resource is that it contains mostly one-time tasks that do not require special skills.
Idea 4: consider the following jobs: waiter, nanny, promoter, personal assistant, internet work, help with social networks, housework (cleaning, cooking, grocery shopping). You can often find such an offer to combine with your main job or study. We tell you where to look for vacancies in the Looking for a job section. (+ link to the article) There are many interesting ideas and there will definitely be something for you.
Idea 5: use seasonal offers: in the summer they are looking for workers for the sea, festivals and camps. In winter – to New Year’s fairs, ski resorts. In spring and autumn, help in the garden is often needed. There is always work. It is different, so choose what you like the most and go ahead!
Well, how do you like our ideas? We hope that some of the tips will bring you some extra money. Just don’t forget to tell us about it, okay?
We believe in you and your success!
