On The Go: 5 Jobs You Can Do Anywhere
We live in an age where work is no longer limited to the confines of an office or physical workplace. Now, there are a number of lucrative job opportunities that allow you to work from anywhere; whether you’re a stay at home mom, long-term traveler or simply in pursuit of freelance work to do from home. Here are a list of five jobs where you can use your talents and make money from anywhere.
Stock Photography
If you have a keen eye and a good quality camera, submitting your photography to a stock photography website is an excellent way to make money. Sites like Shutterstock accept a variety of media forms, which they offer to their subscribers. Generally, they are looking for authentic images that customers can purchase like land and cityscapes, family portraits, food and generic products. It’s easy to apply: applicants must submit 10 high-quality photos, which will be reviewed for suitability. Once you’re approved, you can upload your images to the site and will be paid out per download. Contributors can qualify for raises based on the monetary amount of photo downloads. The monetary tiers for raises are $500, $3,000, then $10,000. If you’re an avid baker with great kitchen light or a traveller who ventures to see amazing sites, capturing these moments on camera can really pay off.
Write Product Reviews
There are a number of websites that will pay you for unbiased product reviews. Products could be beauty supplies, home goods, clothing, food, technology, movies, music and/or games. Taking time to write helpful reviews that could be posted on high-volume-traffic sites, is beneficial to both you and other consumers. Ukritic is a site that will pay out when someone buys a product you recommend, whereas ReviewStream pays for review votes as well as product purchase.
Homemade Artisan Retail
If you’re the creative type who likes to indulge in crafts and homemade goods, there are a number of options for you to share your artisan goods with others. E-commerce sites like Etsy are a great way to showcase your unique product. Etsy is user-friendly with an easy-to-navigate interface.
