Hello! Today you will learn how to make money for a beginner at home and not only.
In this article I will give you many different ways to earn money. All of the methods listed below are working, personally tested by me.
Reselling Items on Bulletin Boards
This way of making money really works because many people don't know the real value of the goods or simply sell cheap to get rid of this or that product faster.
Many collectors are looking for unique items in this way and are willing to offer good money for them. You won’t believe it, but things stale in a grandmother’s closet can benefit someone else, and thereby save you from trash and bring good profit. Soberly evaluate the old things in your pantry and you will certainly earn money selling them. Perhaps somewhere in the bins lies the first Soviet camera, a Singer typewriter, a tablecloth with unique embroidery or a record player.
Some photo studios, as well as theaters and even hand-makers are looking for goods in a similar way and are happy to buy interesting retro items.
On Avito you can find many things that are sold at a reduced price. You just need to buy them and sell them for more, and the difference in price is your earnings!
I will give an example from my own life, because I am talking about proven methods.
Once I accidentally saw how much elk antlers cost, the average price was 5000 rubles. Then I found horns on Avito for 3000 rubles, bought them and after 4-5 days they bought them from me for 5000 on the same Avito. I just made a better photo and description. Net profit 2000 rub. in 5 days. I agree that it is not enough, but if you do it fully, you can sell more.
Also, I tried to buy Macbooks in Moscow with Avito, and sell them in my city, because in our city there are few ads and they are more expensive, but in Moscow there are a lot and prices are cheaper;) The conclusion is simple - you can make money!
Shipping and payment:
- In your city, you can sell through a personal meeting. Send orders to other cities by agreement. But most often by Russian Post. Shipping costs are usually borne by the buyer. But then again, whatever.
- Payment can be accepted by cash on delivery or by transferring funds to a bank card or electronic wallet.

Selling goods from abroad
Also a great option, which I have been doing and continue to do, but more formally and on a larger scale. Now there are opportunities to buy goods from Taobao, Aliexpress, 1688 , etc.
Almost everything is cheaper there. You can just buy there and sell on the same bulletin boards in your city. With Ebay and Aliexpress, you can order absolutely to any city and any country, so this type of income is available to everyone! I tried to sell a lot of goods, but now I deal with bags from China, but more on that later.
My friends sell phone cases, other friends sell unusual gifts and interior items, others sell iPhones and other Apple equipment. So try it too ;)

Provision of services
We all know something and these skills can be easily sold. If you know foreign languages, then you can teach it to others. Or, for example, you know how to repair plumbing, so why not do it for money.
Today, more and more girls prefer working with flexible hours. What could be better than not managing your own working day. In the service sector, you can make good money on hairdressing and makeup. After completing special courses, more and more girls I know earn on manicure, depilation, hairstyles and make-up, preparing girls for important events (weddings, anniversaries, graduations, etc.). Providing your services is a great way to earn fast money.
How to make money on it? Easy! Just start telling everyone about your services, make your own website, place an ad wherever possible and everything will go uphill for you;) Although what am I telling ...
For those who are interested in this topic, I wrote an article on how to start a business in the service sector . Read it, it's all there step by step! I also provided services for developing websites, setting up contextual advertising, and much more.
How to make money on a website or blog
Making money on the Internet is easy, the main thing is to decide on your niche: your website, blog, online store, selling goods from a one-pager , etc. But more about everything.
This is one of my favorite activities and for me it is not only earnings, but also a favorite hobby. This blog site, where you are now, I am happy to lead and write articles for you, this is really my hobby. Also, I had and have blogs for making money, on which I earn money from advertising, affiliate programs and so on.
A blog differs from a website in that most often it is tied to the personality of the author, his worldview and life position. It is worth noting that it is these blogs that are more popular. But not the last place in their promotion is occupied by seo-optimization. Read more about this in the Business Promotion section.
A blog is an informational site where you write interesting and useful articles on topics that people are interested in. If your articles are well written, the search engines show them in the search results, thereby giving you visitors. But you can also promote your blog yourself.
When you have a lot of readers on your blog, you can easily make money from it from advertising, from affiliate programs, or from posting links and paid articles. This is a working way to make money online.
If you are interested, then read the section on how to make money on your site .
Additional jobs
If you work or study and your schedule allows you to take on additional part-time work, do not miss this opportunity. I, too, when I was a schoolboy and student and also worked part-time to earn money.
You can take care of the kids or work in a store doing loading and unloading jobs with pay at the end of the day, or you can do work in your main line of work. Roughly speaking, “left”, but not to steal, but to be leftist, to serve any clients on your own, and not in the company in which you officially work. There are also many options for part-time jobs in your spare time as a courier and all sorts of handymen positions.
- If you are a student of the Faculty of Foreign Languages, then your knowledge is quite enough to give additional lessons to schoolchildren. A modern approach to teaching foreign languages through Skype lessons is a great opportunity to recruit a group of students not only in your city, but also in other areas.
You can package your knowledge into a training course and thus sell it for good money. If the information you collect helps someone, it will quickly spread among potential customers.
- As an additional income for prosperous people, during a financial downturn, you can organize the sale of seasonal goods: “anti-freeze” in the autumn-spring period or flowers, on the eve of the spring holidays, as well as live and artificial Christmas trees a couple of weeks before the New Year.
- If you inherited an apartment from your grandmother, then in order to earn money for its repair, you can, at first, rent it out daily or monthly.
- If you live in a resort area, then organize a business for tourists. Tents with souvenirs and goods of local origin (honey, fish, sweets) will allow you to decently and really earn money during the influx of tourists.
- And if you are the owner of a luxurious premium car, then why not offer your services to the newlyweds to accompany them on a significant day to the registry office or a banquet hall.
Receiving dividends or interest on deposits also refers to additional earnings. But to get started, they require some investment.

Open your online store
After I started selling from China, I soon opened my online store. Thus, the second paragraph of this article can be legalized and made into a full-fledged business. An online store is a fairly profitable business, pays off quickly, requires small initial investments and is quite simple to organize. In general, you can earn a lot of money! At the start, you can work alone or with your spouse, as I did. When the turnover increases, you can think about hiring employees (call center, driver, loader).
Now everyone is very actively buying on the Internet, in addition, you can test a niche on any goods by first purchasing a small batch and selling it on Avito (point 1).
I already wrote an article on how to open an online store from scratch . You can sell almost anything in an online store!
Sell products from one-page websites
By selling through the Landing Page , you can earn a lot of money faster than with an online store. The whole point of making money is that you analyze demand, choose a product for sale, test it for saleability, create a one-page landing page and sell it all over Russia. This type of business is now in trend!
Here is a more detailed article about it: Selling from One Page Sites .
Handmade
In the continuation of sales in online stores and on bulletin boards, it is worth saying that you can make various goods with your own hands and sell them. There is such a project "Fair of Masters", where they sell such goods and buy them very well.
You can also sell your crafts in the online store, social networks and message boards. Many people like something unusual and this theme works very well. Therefore, if you know how to make something or are a jack of all trades, then this is your kind of making money!
How to make money freelancing
There are many sites for freelancers (free workers), where customers leave various tasks from writing texts and logo design to developing full-fledged sites. An example of the most affordable and good exchange is Workzilla . You can write texts, design, program, make up, work with advertising campaigns on the Internet, promote websites and much more.
If you have any of the above skills, then you are not in vain reading this paragraph. As a freelancer, you can earn enough to leave your regular job and work from home. But if you do not have the necessary skills, then the next item will definitely suit you!
Running small orders online
Probably the easiest way to make money! There is one wonderful Workzilla project . There, customers leave various types of tasks, for example: put ads on bulletin boards, come up with a name for something, make a logo, edit text, type text from scanned copies, call customers, solve a mathematical problem, and much more.
I myself leave tasks for performers on Workzilla and pay them money for this. Look at examples of tasks and find interesting ones for yourself!
Work in a call center at home
Such work is offered by Tinkoff Bank. This vacancy has a lot of positive reviews, requires you to: a quiet workplace at home, a computer and headphones with a microphone. You can earn up to 50,000 rubles a month by advising bank clients. You do not need to call anywhere, you only need to receive calls and help bank customers solve the problem, answer their questions and introduce new services.
Details on the official website of the bank .
Work in social networks
Now there is a lot of work in social networks. For example, designing groups and communities, maintaining Vkontakte publics, posting comments and joining various communities, inviting to meetings, exchanging ads, searching for advertisers, and much more. To do this, you need to write to community administrators and offer your candidacy. You can also search for orders on the WorkZilla exchange . I will say for example that a community editor can easily receive 15,000 rubles. per month. And for this you just need to search for and publish interesting content in groups. Like this!
There are also many services to earn money in social networks. There you need to put likes, make reposts, join communities, etc. They pay a penny, but enough for the Internet and cellular communications.
Selling someone else's services
If you do not know how to provide your services, but know how to sell well, then you can sell other people's services and receive affiliate rewards for this. You can also sell other people's information products through an affiliate program. This is a good way of making money!
This is easier to do if you have a website, or a subscription, or a group on social networks, or if you have a forum thread. But if you don’t have one, then you can post links to an info course or service on forums, social networks, and if sales occur through your links, then you will earn money.
You can also offer other people's services offline. For example, I offered the services of a company that helps to get a deferral or exemption from the army. For each client I brought, I received 2000 rubles. And since I myself was then of military age, my advertising was a story to friends and acquaintances. On average, I brought in 5-7 people per month. Calculate the profit yourself;)

How not to earn
Well, now I will tell you about the ways in which you will never make money.
Be careful! If you search the Internet for ways to make money, then you often come across advertisements for some quick money-making, such as pyramid schemes, MLMs, get-rich-quick schemes and so on. Don't believe it! In many of them you are asked to invest some money, then invite friends and acquaintances and earn money for everyone who comes. To a greater extent, these are deceivers, in some cases you will sell crazy goods at high prices (in MLM they often do this), the pyramids will collapse and you and your friends will be left without money.
All sorts of sites offering gold trading also work, but all this is a lie and there is no earnings from gold, but also from invited people. In general, where you are asked to pay money for joining somewhere, then invite people, then most often this is a scam. Just remember one thing...there are no get-rich-quick schemes, they just don't exist and that's it, it's a scam!
You can't make money risking your health . This includes making money from donating blood, donating cut hair, and other absurdities and experiments that can offer you for money. All this is not worth it. You will receive little money, but the consequences can be very different.
Earnings on computer games . If you are a schoolboy or a slacker, then of course you can try to make money on it. But it is important to understand that you can spend a lot of time on this, but you will not achieve the result.
Conclusion
Perhaps I have not listed all the ways to make money, but I have listed what I am really sure of and checked for myself, what helped me out in difficult times, except for hand-made. But more importantly, I warned you about all sorts of scammers in the last paragraph.
We turn on the brains! Only your ingenuity will help you make money quickly and easily! Therefore, turn on the fantasy and go! At one time, sellers of "sea air" and "therapeutic" mud made decent money on tourists. Good breeding - good money!
It's never too late to learn! If your career has come to a standstill, you feel hopeless, then maybe it's time to radically change your life?! Get additional education or take refresher courses, learn something new, fortunately, today it is easy to do without even leaving your home, through online learning.
Saving. Sometimes you just need to cut your expenses to make money. Have you tried counting your monthly expenses? I advise you to do this and you will be horrified at how much you spend on unnecessary things.
What is left for you now? Try yourself in everything that is possible! The main thing is not to sit still, but to constantly move forward and do, do, do, then everything will work out for you! Think big, take risks, create your own business, test niches, generally move, and don't sit still;)
I look forward to your additions, objections and questions in the comments! Thank you for your attention!
