"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.

The idea behind Morgan Eckroth's social media business is simple: Create the "warmness and comfort of a coffee shop" online. Eckroth launched her account, MorganDrinksCoffee, as an experiment to hone her social media marketing skills in June 2019. While I was getting my degree [at Oregon State University], I always knew I wanted to go into media marketing and digital advertising. How does having a successful social media business affect the way you consume social media? I try my best not to consume my own content or other coffee content online.
Last year, Eckroth won the U.S. Barista Championships and placed second at the World Barista Championships. "I've experienced my biggest moments of growth, both professionally and also personally, emotionally ... in competition," Eckroth says. Here's how she turned her love of coffee into a six-figure career — and what it even means to be a competitive barista. On the competition grindA year after Eckroth started as a barista, she found a YouTube video of a competitive routine at the U.S. Barista Championships. Eckhart says she spent 170 hours over two months practicing for the 2022 U.S. Barista Championships.
