Use Craigslist’s “Etc” Page to Find Great Money-Making Opportunities
As we all know, Craigslist.org can be a mesmerizing site unless you know exactly what you’re looking for. There are lots of categories and lots of deals–some good, some bad. One of the first places I go on Craigslist is to the “Etc” section under the “Jobs” section. This is where individuals and/or companies often list one-time money-making opportunities. Just a few weeks ago, someone needed help moving a few pieces of furniture and offered $40 for anyone who could come and help for two hours. Maybe you’re not into doing something that takes that much physical effort…but a quick $40 for 2 hours of work seemed like a good idea to me.
Survey and Focus Group companies also frequently post on the “Etc” section. About 4 months ago, I answered an ad by a company looking for people to come and anonymously answer a series of political questions. They paid me $75 in cash just to come and tell them what I thought about the upcoming election. Now that I’m on this company’s list they contact me almost monthly with new opportunities. Recently, I did a “hair products” focus group for them and they gave me $150 for only 2 hours of my time. All this from just answering one ad in the CL “Etc” section.
My advice is to check about every 2 days as the ads on CL are constantly updated and changed. Often, these “one-time” opportunities are first come, first serve… and thus go pretty quickly. Have fun and Good Luck!
I’ll keep posting if you keep reading!
