Ok so I found the best possible way to make an extra income. If you’re a social person or are looking to make some friends; this would be the way to go.
I came across meetup.com not in my quest to find more income, but as a result of my need to connect with people. My husband found this site for me when I was going through my baby blues. I just had my baby girl and felt closed to the world and isolated. Meetup.com was I miracle.
This is how it works: let's say I'm interested in playing volleyball, but it’s too expensive to join a volleyball league. I would go on meetup.com and do a search for volleyball in my area. I would then joint the meetup and attend the volleyball games planed. If there is no meetup that I'm looking for I would then create one. It’s an amazing tool that helps to connect us with people who share the same interests. I joined five different, first time mom, meetups. I felt happy to meet women that were going through the same thing I was going through. This is a great site to join for these reasons alone; however there is another reason (a monetary one) to create a meetup.
Me and my husband started a soccer meetup group. Why? Well not long ago my husband joint a soccer league and paid $150 dollars to play 8 games. After we discovered meetup we thought why pay if we can setup a meetup and have him play on his time for free. But further more we discovered that we can charge for the meetups. For example we charge $4 dollars per person for each meetup. Let's say we have about 20 people per meetup, two meetups a week. That's more than $600 a month. But the best part is; you make a small income doing what you love.
However you should realize that it’s not as easy as it sounds. You have to set up ways to collect the money, make sure your meetup gets a lot of people, keep the communication going and answer all e-mails from members. It takes time and energy.
If you never make a meetup you can always meet great people by joining meetups based on your interests.
Remember meetup.com does not pay me, I do this to help. I hope I offered some good information and wish you the best of luck in your money making ventures.
