‘Building a social media presence that reflects what you offer- and what you want to offer– is a key step toward finding paying customers.’
‘Mastering the art of pitching yourself and your product to potential clients and bloggers is essential to spreading word about your business and landing paying gigs.’
‘Saying no to activities and requests that don’t support your priorities is an essential skill that can free up hours of time.’
‘Failure is an inevitable part of any side-gig pursuit, and learning how to bounce back is essential for success.’
‘Strategies for resilience vary widely by individual, but include taking a break, getting perspective, trying a new approach, or simply carrying on.’
‘Side-giggers often help each other, by sharing information, connections, and advice. They also frequently hire each other.’
‘Ideas often grow out of skills gained in full-time jobs.’
‘Successful side-giggers usually spend significant amounts of time honing and testing their ideas.’
‘Small steps toward building a side-gig can be more productive than big ones.’
‘For highly targeted businesses, personal connections and referrals can be even more important than a social media presence.’
