This Week I have been focusing and studying on some of the long and quick job careers and strategies to make an income from home/remote and how long it takes to get the experience needed for each position. I tried to focus on more realistic goals for right now until I have more time and can be able to create my dream to be a entrepreneur . I still struggle to do alot of things like app creating and business startup skills but I have been selling some drinks and such on my Instagram Business page. Knowing I can sell a lot of my old Toys and stuffed animals etc. to get a higher resale value is helpful and a good way to clear space and Make money in the process . I started selling stuff on EBay and Offerup ( Letgo) yesterday . I only sold one old Nike tech sweater so far and even tho it was alittle sketchy for me meeting up with somebody random especially nowadays I still was able to make some quick money for something unusable by me but it’s a start if I can sell that within a day the rest of my listings on both eBay and Letgo should be gone in no time .Negotiation skills to get the price you want for things is also important when striking deals and selling products . A skill I learned is charging alittle bit above the resale price and bargaining the person down to the price you wanted to make the client think there getting a deal . Another online money earning job which is pretty common and what most people think of when they do remote Jobs “Customer service “ . A lot of company’s don’t have time or enough resources to answer calls and handle customers over the phone so they hire people off of job websites looking for that type of job with experience of course . Thats where the free internships come in . In that situation you would be better off being an intern until your able to get enough experience to put on your resume to make you alittle more qualified for jobs as a virtual assistant . Over the last couple of weeks techie youth has taught me A lot of new material and skills that I never really knew or ideas I thought of and never acted on but now it’s given me knew motivation to take into the world that could make things a lot easier for me to make some money and not have to work a 9-5 . but the lesson that I’ll be adding to my daily is time management using my time sparingly and productively, Sleeping less 😂 and not spending money on useless temporary pleasure anymore . I will be online to continue learning material and give another summary on how everything is going. Happy Friday !
Today I learned some ways to make “immediate income “ . A lot of these methods I never heard of and thought were scams including the taking surveys for money . I’ve been listening to the radio and making money through radioearn.com which I would’ve assumed was also a scam or some way for bots and website to make money and waste my time . Swag bucks is another way to make a slow earning income off of taking surveys . Not a permanent job but a way to again put some extra bucks in your pocket . I’ve also have been learning what it takes to put me on the right path to success doing and taking on free remote internships for career goals I’m most interested in just to get the experience . Working for free isn’t fun but it is going to be helpful in the long run for the experience and profile /resume building . Which can open up more career paths at the end of the day .
Learning about what it takes and what I would I have to do to manage social medias for personal use and company’s . Scheduling meetings for company’s through Google calendar . Even learned about new FaceTiming / virtual meeting apps including Bluejeans / Google hangouts . I already knew about Zoom and Skype but it’s interesting to know how much Covid has impacted people to make apps for company meetings even for remote uses . I need to re-learn some of the material for life quality on some of the other topics to get a better score but I understand the concept of the lessons and I enjoy the videos with Eric it makes learning more fun . Especially when he travels to unique locations like China and Tokyo .
I Learned what virtual assistance roles they have and the available income for each position. Salary could start from 20$ an hour to 40 $ an hour pretty good pay to live off of for a remote job . I also tried to apply to some virtual assistance jobs i can get with having no experience & rewatched some videos and re took a quiz on quality of life and time management helps me refresh my memory on things like what it takes to be successful and how to spend my time wisely and again prioritize on what’s more important .Still not done with the day yet but that’s pretty much where my time is being out today .
My daily report for today : I have learned what it takes to be a remote online virtual assistant . What that basically means is you get to be a personal helper for business owners or people with too much time to control certain parts of there life / businesses. They have Jobs that where you can maintain somebody’s social media , answer phone calls and be a directory service / Customer service for people who need help searching for things etc . Getting experience to obtain one of these jobs is where my focus will be this week . Everything seems like something interesting I wanna try so I like to keep my options open . Not saying it will be easy but I like a challenge .
This week my main focus has been on resume building and learning more ways to make an income off of my business, getting customers, getting money making a website . I learned that you can make money off a niche website off of just writing 30 useful articles for people to use . After that you would just have to wait but its an income that you don’t have to Work hard for all you have to do is put in the bare minimum of work and the site basically runs itself. Obviously those articles have to be relevant to what people need and want to know the questions too in this current day and age. Like some thing most people search about or need to know the info for that's the key to making a successful niche website. I also learned how to build a résumé custom to every job that I applied for. Using keywords on a résumé to get the employees attention and using skills that I have learned related to that job that would make me a better fit for the position. Also being more persistent and motivated helps you have a higher chance at getting the job even if you have to learn the skills through training some Employers rather a motivated employee other than Somebody who doesn’t show the initiative or passion to wanna work.
So I know last week I was looking forward to making a website and starting my own business. As far as the business website / App goes it’s a lot harder than expected to code and get a website started than I would of thought .Although I wasn’t able to follow through I have prepared my products and business logo and I do have a way to ship the product Via UPS / FedEx etc. What my plan is and I already started doing this is making a instagram and getting my idea out on the media and starting off slow before taking it mainstream . I have a better chance of making clients and At least making some quick money doing that first . I was thinking about paying somebody to make the website . I have a lot of ideas in the process but honestly still brainstorming. What I was learning this week was how to make a website/ App . Also learned how to talk to people who have common interest to try to get business proposals and open up windows and opportunities in the long run . Hopefully I’ll have more to update about next week till than .
I Learned that more people spend most of there time sleeping or procrastinating on stuff they would’ve got done had they put in more effort and prioritized . I thought that issue was mainly a personal thing for me . Seeing that there’s other people who feel the same way makes things feel alittle better in the long run . Time is money and if I’m not using my time sparingly and smart I won’t have all the fun and happy things I’ll want in life . I can’t be worried about fun and pleasure until I prioritize on the things I need that’s going to help me in the long run . This week I learned the Quality of life and Time management. I also learned about entrepreneurship and starting a business/Website to fast track business ideas I had . Next Week I will be trying to startup my first website . Till Next week
I have Learned this week at techie youth that Stock trading is the biggest way to invest your money today . Buying stocks is basically owning a percentage of a company and profiting on putting money into the business it’s like a loan . If the business does good you get double back sometimes triple what u put in . Investors roll the dice with a lot of investments but most skillful investors know when to invest in the stock market and what company is going to rise and grow more and more . I Learned that Stocks and Cryptocurrencies is the best way to invest your money .I would like to keep learning on this .
