But in reality, everyone is worried about "no way to get it", haha, there is no way and no way here.
There is Tao, it depends on how to open it.
I have been running my own sideline since graduation. Now I will share some experiences that can not only improve myself but also make money. At the same time, I will also share the sideline experience of colleagues and friends I know around me, hoping to bring you some inspiration.
I'm talking about "how to cultivate your own sideline according to your personal hobbies or advantages". Personal hobbies or advantages are your own resources. As long as you actively display your resources, you can attract two groups of people who are useful to you. One group is people who share your hobbies or advantages, and the other group is people who want to establish a cooperative relationship with your hobbies or advantages.
20 17 summer internship, salary 2500, really can't get along in Guangzhou.
But at that time, four or five college students shared a room and a living room. Rent, water and electricity are 1.400- 1.600 per month, with a per capita income of about 300. Very little, hehe, eating and drinking 65,438+0,500, transportation 200, clothes and shoes skin care, so needless to say, in short, poor.
Living conditions were very poor at that time. How bad is it? In the handshake building, I don't know that the door opened twice, so I stopped talking about rats and cockroaches. On the roadside, on the third floor, I often hear people quarreling and throwing bottles outside in the middle of the night. ...
Poverty kept me from sleeping well, so I began to find ways to make money.
1. Write a WeChat draft: I found a senior who is doing new media through self-recommendation, and I wrote a draft for her. The basic manuscript fee is 100, and the reading volume is increased 10000 and 100000+000.
2. Looking for resources: I also did another sideline for this senior, and found a suitable WeChat official account V to recommend to the brand owner. Successful cooperation1100,2,300,3,500 ...
3. Copywriting: I studied advertising in college. I won some awards in college and went to an advertising company. I was recommended by some customers and recognized by other customers, so I took the order. This general copy is 100-300 regardless of its length.
4. Write a corporate propaganda script: I developed this myself. I met a director during the interview. The interview was successful, but I didn't go. I asked if I could cooperate with copywriters in my spare time. He said, of course, so that I can have my first business source to expand myself. Look at the length and requirements of the promotional film, 500- 1000.
5. Write a brand introduction PPT: This is also an unexpected way for me to expand and explore. Advertisers will inevitably do PPT. In fact, my PPT layout is not good, but my content is quite satisfactory to customers. Usually they just give me a brand name and a few hundred words of brand introduction, so I can weave flowers for him. According to the number of pages of the content, each PPT is 20-30-30, and generally the whole PPT has 35 pages, so a PPT introduced by a brand earns 700- 1000.
6. Write a soft article: I hooked it up myself during the interview, haha. Some new media companies have platforms but don't support content creators, so they have to find writers outside. I took a fancy to them, and then they were quite satisfied with me. They may be partners, not colleagues. There are 300-500 articles here.
In 2020, the sideline income will be more than 8,000 yuan, which is not much, but I am satisfied. Sometimes you are too busy, and you will continue to expand more resources in the future. ...
I like reading and writing since I was a child, so naturally my sideline has something to do with it, because I like it for a long time. If I change the manuscript twice, I will be impatient. I can't eat this bowl of rice.
I am a patient person, and I have dealt with many customers, and they are also very assured of me. Generally, the number of changes will not exceed three times, and minor changes and rhythms are also under my control, so there is no conflict with the main business. It is a bit tiring to engage in sideline business, but it is also an intangible gain to contact different brands and customers by making money.
Let's talk about our own experience.
I found that many friends who like literature and write something are reluctant to write business manuscripts. On the one hand, they feel that they don't conform to their own positioning, on the other hand, they can't find the writing routine of commercial bills.
Tell me about this positioning.
How do people who like literature define themselves? Literary youth? Intellectual? A scholar? Or a poor scholar? Let's have a formal meal. Piano, chess, calligraphy and painting do not conflict with daily necessities. What feels awkward is self-esteem.
I like literature. My dream is to open a warm bookstore "Zheng Qing Bookstore", but before my dream comes true, I must make money. If I can make millions by writing business manuscripts, then I can realize my dream (if this bookstore can make millions).
So for a poor person like me, my dream is my spiritual pillar, and writing a business draft can bring me money and is my material pillar. When the material can match the spiritual needs, then my dream will come true.
Let's talk about the writing routine of commercial bills.
This thing doesn't need a gift like literature. Commercial bills can be practiced, and the more you practice, the better. It used to take me 1000 words to write a business draft, but now it can be done in three hours.
Because I learned how to disassemble the business draft structure and how to communicate with customers, I wrote it quickly with few changes. I received the money for the order.
Just like now, I post this article in my own channel and external channels. I'm building a brand image for myself: I'm ok. Ask me to write a manuscript and do ppt.
(1) will send a copy to my friends from time to time, telling everyone intentionally or unintentionally that my copy is not bad.
(2) Occasionally write a novel on the official WeChat account and tell everyone that my ability to make up stories is ok.
(3) Friends recommend each other, customers recommend each other, take the initiative to share, and turn one into two.
(4) Especially when I was interviewing for a job, I made a resume carefully and was praised several times.
At first, I got the manuscript of 100 from my senior sister. At that time, I thought it was a lot of money, but later I found that I deducted a lot in the middle.
For example, senior's client's client may give her 1000, senior's client may give her 500, then 300, and finally it will be 100 in my hand. I am the person who contributes the most and gets the least money. At that time, I knew it was particularly uncomfortable. Originally 100 was still too much. I didn't expect such a manuscript to be worth 6500.
I began to explore and accumulate my own channels, my own customer resources, which I can't get in one hand, and second-hand is not bad. My current draft price of 1000 words is 500, and the script is 500. I will increase according to the demand. PPT is only 20/P if you simply organize the materials, and 30-50/p if you create your own content+typesetting. Service on demand, pricing by quality.
A client was anxious to ask me to do PPT before. I am very anxious. I asked him why he was in such a hurry. He said he had someone do it a few days ago. He thought it was done today. I didn't know it had not started until I asked. He said he had no time and forgot to tell him.
This customer was angry and anxious at that time, and found me through the introduction of another old customer. There's nothing I can do. I still have to give my old customer face, so I stayed up all night to get him to three or four o'clock. The next day, he woke up and was happy to see PPT. It is said that he went to the investment promotion meeting.
Don't think that you will be all right after writing, just wait for the manuscript to be revised. There is no such thing. My goal is to pass the first draft and save time and effort. But it's hard, at least once, to change it, either as a title or as a tune.
I received a project, and I will ask him two questions: What do you want? When do you want it?
Then ask for as many materials as possible, or previous cases, which can help you avoid detours. When these things arrive, it takes half an hour to conceive a framework first.
Type out the framework, send it to the customer, and tell him how I intend to expand it and what examples to quote from what angle.
After that, the prototype is basically finalized, and the changes behind it are generally not big.
After the framework is finalized, the customer can pay the down payment. Yes, I require a down payment. I kept my promise to write to you, and you should give me a down payment, so that I can write with peace of mind.
Many people are afraid to do sideline business mainly because of these two points. First, the main business is very busy, and the sideline business can only be done very late. Second, the customers corresponding to the sideline business may not keep their promises, and they will not get the money if they run away. I've thought about this, too.
My main business is very busy, so most of my sideline work is done at home after work, usually from 10 to 12 in the evening, and I will take an afternoon out on weekends to do sideline work, or a day.
How can I put it? It depends on my personal situation and needs. If I am really tired, I don't recommend persistence. After all, my body comes first, and I did it within my control.
As for the problem that customers are afraid of running away, I mentioned earlier that they will be required to pay a deposit, and when they get the deposit (usually half), they will start working to minimize the possible risks.
Friends who like writing can refer to my experience. Codewords can really make a lot of money, but in the right way. Now there are new media training courses everywhere, and a set of courses with several tens or hundreds of dollars will teach you to earn the first pot of gold from scratch. Come on, just help them make their first bucket of gold.
Want to make money from the media, content first, adhere to the second, put money first. Because I haven't made any money from the media yet, I'm still working hard, so this can't help everyone.
When colleagues and friends are full of food and drink outside, they will take some beautiful photos, record a video, set a place to punch in, and then send a little red book to Tik Tok and Aauto faster. Slowly, fans will pay attention, and almost one or two thousand fans will find customers.
I'm telling you, people who often eat, drink and have fun outside can consider doing this, and people who visit stores don't worry about eating and drinking. This is my friend @ Wheat Langya. If you need to promote the brand, or want to become a talent, you can ask her.
This can also refer to my above experience. I was born as a copywriter, so I extended from my client to my client's client. Some are finance, so I took a part-time job on finance at the weekend, some are design, and this is more. All the designers I know have sideline jobs. As for how to find customers, as I said above, you really have to take the initiative and know how to show yourself.
Here is an example. She is my former colleague. During the epidemic, she made a lot of money doing resumes for others, and she envied me. She said that she accidentally found that her interview success rate was high and it was easy to get an offer. The epidemic is coming and many people can't find suitable jobs. When the situation is right, the opportunity comes.
In fact, if you combine your hobbies or specialties, look more and think more. There are really many needs waiting for you to discover. Be a voice companion with a good voice, play a good game and help others score. Those who like movies can do some movie mixing clips. There are many WeChat friends, and those who often buy things will do their own WeChat business. Everyone around you is doing it. Seriously, it's a good sideline to stick to it.
By the way, this is the official WeChat account with questions and answers. Growth, emotion, making money, socializing, dreams and hot topics can all be written. Pay close attention to it. Remember to set the stars at the top, and you will see them soon in the next update.
At present, I write and operate alone, and I will find a partner to do it together in the future. There are so many problems in this world, my problems, your problems and everyone's problems will be written. Let's dare to ask and find the answer together!
