So, you have a laptop with an internet connection. Congratulations—you're eligible for all sorts of highly profitable gigs. All it takes is some persistence and a dash of creativity.

Whether you want to pick up a side hustle and make a little money or start your own business with Whop and make some real cash, you've got all the ingredients for success. Now, the question is: Where to begin?

That's where we come in. Below, we'll tell you everything you need to know to make money with a laptop, including the most profitable gigs to consider.

25 Ways to Make Money With Your Laptop

It's not an overstatement to say that there are lots and lots of jobs you can do if you have a laptop. It's even more accessible than making money on your phone.

The goal is to figure out which jobs aren't legit (the internet is full of scammers) and which are worth your time.

We've done the legwork for you and narrowed it down to a list of 25 ways to make money with your laptop. 

1. Earn a steady income with freelance writing

Freelance writing can earn you a lot of extra money. Here are the top five earning niches, and how much you can make if you target your freelance writing towards these industries. 

  • Technical writing: Technical writing includes things like manuals, user guides, and technical documentation for products or software. A good technical writer can earn up to $750 per article. 
  • Financial writing: Financial writers produce content about personal finance, investment, and economic trends. With financial writing, you can look to bring in between $200 and $500 per article.
  • Healthcare writing: Medical and wellness content is a huge industry. This includes everything from medical trends to disability blogs and articles to holistic medicine. Healthcare writers can make up to $600 per article. 
  • Cybersecurity writing: Someone able to succinctly write about cybersecurity, especially in a way that translates it to a non-technical audience, can look to earn between $300 and $800 per article. 
  • Grant writing: Grant writing is a different type of freelance writing, but one that has the potential to make the most money per successful proposal. A grant writer is generally paid a base fee (around $2,000 to $4,000 for a small grant), as well as a percentage of the grant if it's successful. For a grant writer who would rather charge by the hour, $50 to $150 is a common figure. 

To start looking for freelance writing jobs, you can use platforms such as LinkedIn, Reddit, or Indeed. To get paid easily, just send your clients a quick checkout link.

2. Use affiliate marketing for passive income

affiliate marketing

If you want more of a "set it and forget it" style of income, you can explore affiliate marketing. The right type of affiliate marketing content can continue to earn you revenue long after you've promoted the product or the service. 

For some options, you may have to team up with companies or influencers directly. Others, such as becoming an Amazon affiliate, are more open to the general public and create a less personal working relationship.

Affiliate marketing can pay very little if you don't have much of a following, from $0 to $500 per month. However, once you build up your business, you might be able to earn $1,000 to $5,000 per month and more. Of course, your chances of doing that grow higher if you diversify your income

Here are the areas that tend to offer the best affiliate marketing payout: 

  • Finance
  • Web hosting
  • VPNs
  • SaaS
  • Health
  • Fitness
  • Gaming
  • Beauty
  • Online casinos
  • Amazon Associates Program

And that's not all; check out our article on the best niches for affiliate marketing to learn more.

3. Make a little extra cash with paid surveys

paid surveys

Surveys may not bring in a lot of money, but it can be steady money in exchange for a small time commitment. Daily survey takers on Reddit report being able to make between $30 and $60 per week, but that's from multiple survey apps, not just one.

Here are five tips on how to make the most cash with paid surveys:

  • Understand your demographic: Many surveys or survey apps are targeted towards a specific demographic. As you try to apply for surveys, you'll start to understand which types are likely to accept you and which aren't. If you're an 18-year-old with no children, you probably won't get surveys that ask questions about toddler clothes, for example. 
  • Pay attention: Surveys will insert one or two trick questions just to make sure that you're actually reading them. If you mark the wrong answer on a trick question, you will be instantly disqualified no matter how far through it you are. 
  • Be consistent: It may be tempting to try inputting different information to qualify for something that has already rejected you, but the survey sites hold on to information. They'll know if you do this, and your account may be terminated. 
  • Be open, if not enthusiastic: If a company is asking for your feedback, downvoting the product or service without giving a careful response may also disqualify you. Expressing interest is how they know you're worth their money. 

Here are some popular survey-taking sites that pay: 

4. Become a social media manager

social media management

Social media management is one of those jobs that can earn you full-time money while taking far less time to do. Companies are often in need of someone who can run their socials and keep up brand engagement, but unless you're working for a big corporation it only takes an hour or two a day. 

This is because most of the hard tasks can be scheduled through helpful apps. You can set aside one block of time at the beginning of the week to plan out content, make any graphics or additional elements you need, and schedule the posts. From that point on, a bit of daily engagement is all you really need to commit to. 

Here are some of the apps that can make your job as a social media manager (SMM) a lot easier: 

  • Buffer
  • Hootsuite
  • Later
  • Sprout Social
  • Crowdfire
  • SocialBee
  • Zoho Social
  • HubSpot
  • Agorapulse
  • SocialPilot

As a freelance social media manager, you can look to make between $22/hr and $38/hr. Committing full-time to a specific company can come with a much nicer salary, though that means it's no longer a side hustle—it's a job without the perks of full-time employment. Many SMMs choose to work with multiple clients instead and send them checkout links to get paid.

5. Take stock photos and sell them

Shutterstock

Historically, taking stock photos to sell has been a great way to earn some initial and even possibly passive income, depending on the terms of the sale. With the explosion of amateur iPhone photography and now AI offering competition to stock photo sites, the market has gotten slightly more saturated. 

But that doesn't mean it isn't still worth it. It just means that if you want to sell your images as stock photos, you have to be smart about it. It's not all about photo quality—you should do some market research to figure out what photos are popular and sell them. Many websites need lifestyle photos as well as photos containing popular products. 

Stock photos are among the best digital products to sell. Some of the websites to use for this include:

  • Shutterstock
  • Adobe Stock
  • iStock
  • Alamy
  • Depositphotos

With stock photos, you'll likely be paid per download or purchase on a monthly or yearly basis. Most photos sell for anywhere between $0.10 to $5, but premium services like Getty Images or Alamy might pay up to $100 and more per photo.

6. Run a blog and monetize it

start a blog

Anyone can start a blog, and that blog can be about anything. However, certain topics are more popular and can be easier to monetize. Pro tip: Anything that's considered helpful and/or useful is likelier to sell than a diary-style blog.

Blog owners can earn anything from $0 to tens of thousands of dollars per month. A lot of this income comes from being able to sell things to a group of established readers. Building the audience first is important. 

For example, Pat Flynn of the Smart Passive Income blog no longer shares his income but when he did he reported over $50,000 a month from a combination of affiliate marketing, sponsorships, and digital products. Abby Lawson of Just a Girl and Her Blog makes $41,000 a month mostly through affiliate marketing and selling organization and productivity-related digital products. 

Your best bet is to choose a profitable niche and then sign up on a website like WordPress or Wix to get started.

You can monetize your blog with Whop by offering your readers something extra, from online courses to access to a special, exclusive community just for you and them. 

7. Offer online coaching

online coaching

Coaching is another online industry with a wide expanse of potential niches. Fitness coaching, relationship coaching, financial coaching, and health/wellness coaching are all highly profitable fields. If you need more ideas, check out our top lucrative coaching niches. Online coaches earn anywhere from $30 to $300 per hour. 

Here are some tips if you want to get started as an online coach:

  • Define your niche: Having some specific area of expertise and catering to clients who have a need within that area will help you target your marketing more effectively. 
  • Have a signature program: This lets your potential clients know exactly where your coaching can take them, and the time frame it generally requires to get there. 
  • Use a sales funnel: Figure out how you want to get the attention of clients (possibly using free resources or a free sample program), and then convert the interest into sales. 
  • Leverage testimonials: With every successful client, you can collect a testimonial to serve as proof of your skill and credibility with future clients. 

Selling coaching services is easy with Whop. You can easily set up one-on-one video calls with your clients or create a helpful, encouraging community for them to interact with each other and learn from you. 

If you gather a group of experts, you can run a mastermind and turn your offer into a high-ticket product. That means getting paid $1,000 and above for each participant.

8. Learn how to invest

Investing

Investing doesn't require anything besides a small amount of seed money to get you started, but if you don't know how to go about it, you might have a hard time. Starting small and diversifying your investments are the best ways to reduce your overall risk. 

Remember that investments are a long-term game. Panicking and moving your money around too much will hurt your overall profit, so be prepared to buckle up for long-term growth. When your growth starts to pay out dividends, reinvest those dividends instead of cashing out so your investment value goes up. 

There's no set amount that investors can earn. Some lucky people who invested in Bitcoin early on are now multimillionaires. Others invest small amounts and only get $100 per month.

If you want more advice, then the best way to get it is to find communities where investors gather to discuss the best prospects. You can find plenty of options on Whop. We also have a list of the best investing Discords.

9. Start making money through Instagram

make money on Instagram

You don't have to be an influencer with millions of followers to make money on Instagram. Micro-influencers like Emma Cortes ($60,000 a year) and Taylor Lorenz ($40,000 a year) make a full-time living through sponsored content and brand partnerships. 

The key to their success is that both of them understand how to work their analytics and work with brands that align with their audience. 

Here are some tips that can help even micro-influencers bring in a full-time living on Instagram

  • Stay relevant: Work within your niche and keep your content consistent with that. 
  • Engage with your audience regularly: This can be responding to comments, having live streams, or posting polls. Engagement is what feeds the algorithm, so this time investment will pay out as more eyes on your content. 
  • Leverage the platform tools: On Instagram, you can include hashtags and location tags to appeal to people who may be seeking out your kind of content but didn't know you existed. 
  • Be aware of brand collaboration potential: You don't want to wait for a brand to reach out to you; if there's someone you want to work with, set up a realistic pitch and reach out to them. As long as you're professional and respect boundaries, the worst they can say is no.

Like most types of social media work, your top source of revenue will not be Instagram itself but rather monetizing it in other ways.

10. Create and sell your own online courses

sell online courses

Online courses are some of the top-selling digital products that can make you the most money. The best thing about them is that they're just the cornerstone of a successful business; you can supplement them with things like ebooks or worksheets. 

Courses typically sell for anywhere between $50 and $500. It's a broad spectrum, so check out how to price your course the right way.

If you want to make and sell online courses, you can do so in just five easy steps:

  1. Pick a niche: It should not just be something that you're pro at, but also something that sells, so dig into that market research!
  2. Create your course: This process involves outlining and then actually writing out or filming the materials.
  3. Choose a platform: With Whop, uploading your course and all associated materials only takes a few minutes, and you keep 97% of each sale.
  4. Market your course: For this, you have to figure out where your audience gathers so you can sell to them and how much they're to pay. 
  5. Launch your course: That's the fun part—set it free into the world and watch it make you money.

Some courses are evergreen and don't require many updates, but the ones that'll earn you the most money in monthly subscriptions are the ones that stay updated frequently. 

11. Become a translator

Become a translator

If you know more than one language, you can definitely make money online through translation services. Different languages pay different amounts, so it's helpful if you can focus on one that plays a big part in the global economy. 

As far as pay goes, your mileage may vary based on your experience and location. Common hourly rates range from $25 to $60, but specialized fields get significantly more.

You can get jobs through services like ProZ.com, TranslatorsCafe, Gengo, and Stepes.

12. Start your own podcast

Podcasting

Podcasting is one of those jobs you can not only do from your laptop but also in your pajamas. To start your own podcast, you need an idea for the show that will appeal to listeners and you need to make a few decisions up front. 

You can invest in quality sound and editing equipment or you can start with what your laptop already comes with and increase in quality as you go. Both have their benefits, depending on your initial financial situation. 

A successful podcast can earn you upward of $50,000 on the high end of the spectrum. Even podcasts with a small number of listeners can pull in enough money to pay a few bills. 

Make sure you start monetizing early, and as soon as you have an audience that supports it, diversify. You can host live events, use affiliate marketing or direct sponsorships, or even create a subscription on Whop to let your followers get some extra content at a monthly subscription fee.

13. Offer tutoring services online

tutoring services

If you have any skill or expertise in a specific area, you can work as an online tutor to students in school or even professionals trying to score higher certifications. Tutoring can get you up to $150/hour depending on the subject.

Here are some of the top tutoring niches and how much you can make. 

  • STEM: $30–$80 per hour
  • Test prep (SAT, ACT, GRE, GMAT): $40–$100 per hour
  • Foreign language: $25–$70 per hour
  • Coding: $40–$100 per hour
  • Business and finance: $50–$150 per hour
  • Medical and nursing: $40–$90 per hour
  • Law and LSAT: $50–$100 per hour
  • Statistics and calculus: $40–$90 per hour
  • Academic writing: $30–$75 per hour
  • Music: $40–$100 per hour

As a tutor, you can work through various platforms and let them take a huge chunk of your earnings, or you can start your own tutoring business on Whop and retain up to 97% of all your revenue.

14. Run your own YouTube channel

YouTube

The chances of you becoming the next Mr. Beast or Dream are rare, but that doesn't mean you can't make money from YouTube at all. 

In fact, most full-time YouTube creators make a living for themselves without even cracking a million subscribers. Jessica Stansberry, a digital marketing expert who makes videos about automation, makes $50,000 a year with just over 200,000 subs. Lifestyle vlogger Kelly Stamps has 700,000 subscribers and reports her income at around $90,000 a year. It may require some dedication to the grind as you build your subscriber base, but it can pay off in the end.

You don't even need to show your face to make money on YouTube. Faceless reels are also an option. Of course, the most successful channels are the ones that can't be replaced by a computer.

15. Set up an exclusive paid community

paid community

Yes, you can make money weekly or monthly by running a paid Discord or Telegram server. Some of the top creators on Whop are able to charge as much as $500 per week for access to their communities.

Paid communities are one of the best ways to make money online, simply because they work with so many side hustles. Are you a fitness coach? Run a supportive community and host live classes. Are you a gamer? Set up an exclusive Discord for fans of the games you play and share useful addons or macros at a fee.

With Whop, you can make money from running an online community easily. Whop provides full Discord and Telegram integration, meaning you won't have to do a thing—your members will get access the moment they pay. Plus, you can create a community right in your very own whop with the help of the chat app and forum app. You can even offer a free pricing tier so that people can check it out before committing to a subscription (or a one-time fee, of course).

16. Work in copywriting

Copywriting

Marketing agencies, ecommerce companies, startups, content platforms, and nonprofit organizations all need content to flesh out their online presence—and they're willing to pay for it. That's where you come in with your copywriting pizzaz.

Many copywriters charge per project, in which case you may get between $50 and $3,000 or more depending on your skills and portfolio. Typical hourly rates range from $20 to $100.

Here are some tips for standing out as a copywriter: 

  • Build your portfolio: Without some samples of sales copy, newsletters, press releases, or landing pages, most companies won't consider hiring you as a copywriter. You can build your portfolio by freelancing or preparing unpaid samples.
  • Network: Join copywriting groups on LinkedIn, Reddit, Discord, and elsewhere. You can get advice from working professionals and maybe end up with a job from it. 
  • Pitch to clients: Don't be afraid to go directly to clients. You can reach out using email or LinkedIn. 
  • Share your content: Another good way to make sure you have plenty of examples of your writing is to start a blog or share content on social media. 

To learn more about copywriting, consider joining a community that's run by an expert copywriter, such as this one by Kaleigh Moore.

17. Use money-making apps

money-making apps

If you want to use apps to make money, you have a lot of options. First, there are apps like Lyft, Uber, Grubhub, or DoorDash, which pull you out of the house and into your car or onto your bike. Then there's Rover if you're a pet lover.

Some other options for money-making apps include:

  • Survey apps like Swagbucks or Survey Junkie
  • Cashback apps like Ibotta and Rakuten
  • Microtask apps like TaskRabbit or Clickworker
  • Investing apps like Fundrise and Robinhood
  • Selling apps like Poshmark or Decluttr

18. Open your own dropshipping business

dropshipping

Dropshipping lets you run an online store without holding inventory. You set up your storefront and select products to sell. When a customer makes a purchase, the supplier ships the item directly to them. 

Dropshipping is perfect for anyone who wants a low-cost, low-overhead business. You can set up dropshipping stores on platforms like Shopify, eBay, Amazon, AliExpress, and Etsy. 

If you have a little more capital to work with and don't mind holding inventory, you can also look into reselling instead. The concept is the same, but you can eke out some higher profit margins.

19. Write ebooks for a living

ebooks

Ebooks are a booming market. Sales are expected to reach $21 billion by 2029, and the barrier to entry for writing one is basically non-existent. Ebooks can be fiction, non-fiction, self-help books, or even guides to topics ranging from finance to cooking to pet grooming techniques.

Ebook prices are all over the place. You'll find books selling for less than $1 and ebooks that cost $200 and upward. The price depends on the value you're able to provide to the reader.

Some of the most popular ebook niches include:

  • Personal growth and self-help
  • Marketing
  • Health
  • Ecommerce
  • Finance
  • Fitness
  • Specialized recipe books
  • Investing
  • DIY guides
  • Wellness
  • Test prep
  • Parenting
  • Dating
  • Cryptocurrencies
  • How-to guides
  • Fiction

You can sell your ebooks easily with Whop. For even greater profit, bundle them with other products, such as an online course.

20. Make or resell PLR digital products

PLR digital products

With PLR (Private Label Rights), you buy products from the creator and rebrand them as your own. This lets you save time by not having to create the products but still lets you maintain your brand by selling them as yours. 

PLR products are often sold in bulk, so you can buy a bundle of, let's say, 100 digital planners and customize them. You can turn them into things like ADHD habit journals, weight loss trackers, or seasonal journals, and sell them at a profit. Most products sell for $5 to $50, but it all depends on what you turn them into.

There's also another way to make money with PLR: designing the products yourself. If you can make a product someone else may want, you can then sell it to them and let them customize it however they'd like. 

21. Make money with TikTok

TikTok

Making money through TikTok works in the same vein as Instagram and even YouTube, but each platform has its differences that you need to pay careful attention to. Here are some TikTok-specific tips:

  • Keep your content short and attention-grabbing: TikTok is the platform least likely to keep users watching long-form content, so being concise is important. 
  • Use trending ideas, sounds, and filters: Content that feeds into trends is more likely to be shared by the algorithm. 
  • Pay attention to when and how often you post: Most TikTok experts recommend posting between one and three times a day. The best time to post depends on when your audience is most active, which you can find out using built-in analytics. 
  • Engage: This one counts for every platform. The more you engage with your viewers, the stronger their connection to you will be. That's vital for acquiring brand deals and sponsorships. 

TikTok itself comes with a few ways to make money, from TikTok Live to brand partnerships. Many creators don't make any money from the platform alone, but once you hit 10k to 50k followers, you might get up to $125 per affiliate post.

By far the best way to make money on TikTok is to build your audience on the platform and then direct them elsewhere. With Whop, you can set up a private community for your followers, sell them ebooks, or let them participate in your online courses. 

You can also learn more about monetizing your TikTok from creators on Whop, including Media Labs.

22. Design and sell print-on-demand 

print-on-demand

Print-on-demand products check a lot of boxes for some people. Passive income? Check. Only need a computer? Check. Ability to produce on a flexible schedule and be your own boss? Extra check. 

Print-on-demand creators can easily make up to $5,000 a month as long as they can produce enough content and market themselves well enough. 

You can choose to make your designs and upload them somewhere for your customers to get them printed directly, or sell the designs and let the customer figure out where to print them. Some of the most popular platforms for this include Redbubble, TeeSpring, MerchByAmazon, and Society 6

23. Begin reselling online with digital dropshipping

digital dropshipping

If you want to make money from your laptop, digital dropshipping is one of the easiest ways to do it. You don't need much upfront investment; you also don't have to worry about shipping or storing inventory. To top it all off, you can manage the entire operation online. 

Digital dropshipping works on an affiliate basis. You don't have to create the product yourself—that's the whole point. You just need to build an audience that might be interested in buying a digital product, such as an ebook or a course, and then funnel sales to the original creator. In return, you'll get a piece of the pie, with income ranging from $10 to $1,500 (and way, way more) per month.

This strategy works best if you're able to provide something to entice the customers with. For instance, write an ebook on a useful topic, such as trading stocks, and then mention that this or that creator has a course that goes even deeper into the subject. Voila—you've just planted your lucrative affiliate link.

24. Run your own mastermind

mastermind

Mastermind groups are a combination of support systems, networking opportunities, and brainstorming sessions. By hosting your own mastermind, you can bring together like-minded people who will pay for the opportunity to share thoughts and ideas. 

These groups aren't the same thing as study groups, though. These are highly exclusive communities that only accept a certain amount of people with select skills and knowledge in the topic. To run a mastermind, you yourself also need to be an expert to build up an audience.

They're also different from paid communities in the sense that they don't run forever. A mastermind typically lasts for 4-12 intense weeks. Due to their nature, masterminds make for great high-ticket products, with some creators charging $1,000 to $15,000 for access.

25. Make and sell digital products

sell digital products

The term "digital products" is pretty broad, but it's also pretty self-explanatory: digital products are anything that's not a physical product. SaaS? Digital product. Courses? Yup, also digital products. Discord access? That's right—digital product.

Because of this versatility, digital products are great no matter the venture. They're loved both by mental health wellness coaches and cutting-edge stock market experts. 

They can be tailored to make an active or a passive source of income, too, and there's no cap to how much you can earn; some of the top creators on Whop earn $250,000 per month. Even if you won't get there in your first months, many creators earn $2,000 per month just selling digital products.

Whop is the easiest way to start making and selling digital products. You can add apps that reflect what you want to sell, such as the Files app for ebooks and worksheets, to Courses if you want to upload course materials with quizzes and presentations.

What’s the Best Way to Make Money Online?

Out of all these different ways to make money online, which one is the best

I'll let you in on a little secret: there's no one easy answer to that question, but if I had to pick, I'd always pick selling digital products and services. There's simply no better way to make money with a laptop, all thanks to the perfect blend of flexibility and earning potential that this kind of gig can offer. Fortunately, this category also spans many of the options on this list.

Some of the benefits of selling digital products and services include:

  • Flexibility: Most of these projects can be done whenever you have time, so even if you have a full-time job or you're a student, you can always find an hour here or there to work on your business.
  • Autonomy: That brings me to point #2, which is that you're your own boss. You don't have to rely on a company or a client to come to you and offer you something to do, although it can be competitive.
  • No limit to how much you can earn: Since you choose what you do and then do it all on your own terms, there's no so-called ceiling when it comes to your earnings. It's all about how much energy and time you put into your business and what you do with it.
  • High demand: As most of us are so plugged in 24/7 these days, a lot of services that used to be in-person are now online, and that trend is only projected to continue its upward trajectory. Tutoring, coaching, even personal fitness or financial advice—all of that stuff is increasingly online, and you can benefit.
  • Scalability: Once again, you're in charge of what happens to your business, which means that with time and effort, it can grow and grow. You can start small by selling a couple of ebooks, for instance. Let them collect passive income while you make your own course. Set up a paid community for the people who buy your products, and voila—you've got yourself a fantastic source of income.

On a final note: I love selling digital products and/or services because it's such a vast field to work in. If you're a crypto guru, you can share trading insights and get paid for it; if you're a knitting maniac, you can sell pre-made patterns or knitting ebooks.

It's the perfect way to tap into your creativity and get paid for it.

Getting Started: How to Make Money With Only a Laptop and Internet

You've got the recipe to success right above with 25 different ways to make money with a laptop. Now, it's time to find out how to get started step-by-step.

1. Find your niche

Actually, there's one more reason why I love selling digital products: you can really get into what works well for you. In fact, it's truly best if you do. I'll explain.

The internet is vast, so if you look at a bigger category—let's say, investing in crypto—there'll be thousands of people offering some type of service. But if you niche down a little, by covering things like finding on-chain opportunities, creating and deploying NFTs, and learning how to ride longer-term trends, for example, you'll find an audience that struggles to get good info elsewhere. 

Start by figuring out what you're knowledgeable about or what you like to do, and then narrow it down. To do this, do some market and competitor research. It's often better to have a dedicated but smaller audience than a massive audience of people who won't buy anything.

2. Make time for your new hustle

Some side hustles take more time than others, but even the least time-consuming options require a bit of your time. Even good sources of passive income will take time when you're first getting started; on the upside, you can just relax and rake in the profits once your products are up for sale.

Figure out how much time you can spend on your new venture on a daily or weekly basis. If you're like me, you might want to make it a solid plan instead of just winging it. Time has an alarming tendency to slip right through your fingers, and when you're your own boss, managing it becomes an important task.

3. Figure out what you need to do

Let's say you've decided which of those 25 gigs you're going to partake in. Now, take a notepad and a pen (or your notes app) and figure out the battle plan from start to finish.

Consider things like:

  • What exact products and services do you want to offer?
  • What do your competitors offer (and who even are they)?
  • Where can you complete this gig? Do you have to work with clients or will you set up your own storefront?
  • How many hours per week can you dedicate to this?
  • How much do you want to earn?
  • When do you want to start?
  • Will you need an upfront investment?

You'll end up with something akin to a business plan if you explore all of the above. This will help you think of things that might not naturally pop into your head as you're brainstorming ideas.

4. Market yourself

Whether you're the TikTok-scrolling type (like I am) or you're indifferent to social media, marketing yourself is important—and it's free to do if you do it on your own socials. 

Set up all the profiles for your business and start creating useful content to get some organic traffic.

5. Keep at it!

Making money, with a laptop or otherwise, takes dedication. 

You're building something for yourself here—something that could end up being massively profitable one day. However, it takes time and persistence to get to that point, and many people start out really small.

You might have moments of doubt. You might feel like you're not getting anywhere. But don't give up—give your business the time to flourish.

Most businesses don't take off overnight, but if you keep at it, you'll thank yourself later. Stay dedicated and think of your goals.
