Build something
- For the handyman or handywoman, take that woodcraft, metalcraft, or other handiwork, and build it and sell it. How do you do that? Well, you don't need to own fancy equipment to offer to build wood or metal products. My own office has desks that were built by a guy who is listed on Etsy. That guy uses a public metal shop to craft metal wall brackets that he sells on Etsy. The same guy offers to build custom metal and wood desks and shelving. The potential income here could be $400 to $10,000 a month. To take action, look for local resources like a local woodworking or metalworking shop, or even a glassworking or craft shop. Make a few examples that you can showcase, and list them on Etsy, and be sure that you promote the fact that you can create custom products, especially to your local market.
