"I think you can be successful with more side hustles than you think," Cody Berman, who co-runs online printables course Gold City Ventures, told CNBC Make It in January. In seventh grade, she started selling leggings for teen girls who couldn't afford larger, trendy brands. Bella Lin, 17, started a side hustle to give her guinea pigs more quality of life. Your ability to stay up-to-date on industry trends and audience demographics can affect your earnings over time, Etsy seller Tim Riegel told Make It last year. Riegel started his side hustle — making and selling steel fire pits — in 2021.

She posts her worksheet booklets — designed to help teach literacy to young students — to her online store on Teachers Pay Teachers, an Etsy-style marketplace. Jerome and Becky Powell run their Teachers Pay Teachers stores separately — but the money all goes to the same place, they say. You don't have to spend any money to get started, Powell notes: Teachers Pay Teachers has both free and paid tiers for sellers. Powell pays that subscription fee, as does her husband Jerome — a full-time computer engineer who manages another Teachers Pay Teachers store, called Editable Activities. I have helped eight friends and coworkers open their own stores on Teachers Pay Teachers.

A friend suggested she use her son's naptime to make some extra cash, and pointed her toward an educational resource platform called Teachers Pay Teachers. There, Powell started making worksheets for her fellow teachers to buy and download, working largely from her couch or "kitchen table," she says. Teachers Pay Teachers is an Etsy-style marketplace for educational worksheets, activities and lesson plans across just about every grade level and subject matter. Powell's store, called Sight Word Activities, specializes in teaching literacy to kindergarteners, first-graders and other young students. Last year, Powell's Teachers Pay Teachers store brought in $125,500, or just over $10,400 per month, according to documents reviewed by CNBC Make It.
