Have you been thinking about starting a side hustle, but don't know where to start?

I was once in your shoes so I know how overwhelming it can feel sometimes.

Over the past two years, I've gathered a bunch of side hustle tips that I think everyone should know when starting out.

Here are my top 5 favorites!

1. Choose a business name that'll last.

Many of us don't think long-term when starting our first side hustle. Truth be told, I never imagined having eight side hustles! But plenty of people end up having multiple side hustles to replace their full-time income. So, it makes sense to choose a broad enough business name to group all your side hustles under. This simplifies your business (oh, and your taxes too ).

The best advice I've gotten is to name your business after yourself if it's not taken already. This way you can build a unique brand that adjusts well to any of your new side hustle ventures.

2. You only need to be a few steps ahead of your ideal client.

I LOVE MY JOB, I LOVE MY JOB, I LOVE MY JOB. 

Yes, that’s true. I LOVE my job! Being an entrepreneur is one of the most gratifying elements of my career I have ever experienced. From being home and available for my girls to making my own hours and being able to take vacation time without having to run it by someone other than my family. It is so freeing! 

Yes, this is enough! This is really all of it, but entrepreneurship in and of itself is my favorite and it is so much more than that!

Yes, it’s daunting to start, but as I said above, it has freedom, which leads to happiness and self-exploration. Above all, entrepreneurship has opened the door to friendships! 

Who would have thought friendships or relationships would have been my favorite thing about the entrepreneurial side of my practice? Not me, but I am so glad I’ve found them. 

What’s even wilder, is that these friendships are strictly online. People I’ve never met in person....
