WHAT AM I TALKING ABOUT?

Explain Your Career Field To Others and Earn Income

Becoming an entrepreneur can take a lot of work.  Continuing with our tips for a side hustle, we want to provide you with a simple approach to get you started as an entrepreneur.

Let’s start with the background.  You have spent a part of your career in one or more fields.  It could have been as an accountant, food truck owner, bed and breakfast owner, welder, dance instructor, attorney, or many other career fields.

As a result of your years of experience, you have gained quite a bit of knowledge regarding that career, such as:

• What it takes to be successful in that arena.  
• Why people fail and what mistakes they usually make.
• What a typical day is like.
• What unusual things can happen.
• What are the best skills to possess to be successful.
• Which skills are least useful.
• Is there a specific jargon that needs to be understood.
• What advancement is available.
• Who are the best people to speak with in that career field.
• What do I need to do to perform on a daily basis.
• Are there documents that I need to fully understand before even applying for a position.
• How are hourly or salary payments made.
• Is there travel involved.
• How often would I travel.
• For small business entrepreneurs, how much capital is need to begin operations.
• Many other questions!!

Some may look at entrepreneur.com to search for ways to use this knowledge.  However, since these are also questions that a person who desires to learn more about that career field may ask, we will show you a better way.

YOUR OBJECTIVE

A Mentor Gains Rewards and Income

The most important of our tips for a side hustle is to become a Career Redo Mentor.  Your objective as a Career Redo Mentor is to provide great insight and knowledge to a person who desires to learn more about a career field in which they have an interest.  You want to have your Client feel that they have learned so much and are now prepared to take the next steps to capture their goal of a new career.

Change is hard!  We all know that. This is true for any change, but even more so when changing careers.  Besides all of the other stuff, they need to learn as much as they can about their desired career.  However, the more information that someone has about their change, the easier it is for them. This softens the blow of such a change. You are there to help…and earn income.

Did I tell you that you can charge your Client an hourly rate for your services of providing this information to them?  Yes, indeed!  This is the best of side hustles for working professionals as you can schedule the mentoring sessions in your off hours. The fun part is that you get paid to mentor online.

AS A CAREER REDO MENTOR

Blast Off as a Successful Entrepreneur

Another of our tips for a side hustle is to find an easy place to start.  We will help you get started as an entrepreneur.  So even if you are not one already, Career Redo will do the following:

1. Make a dedicated sales page for you - It presents your experience, background and qualifications for meeting with your Client on your career field. We will include photos, videos, podcasts or other media that you provide to help sell you as the person to address the Client’s concerns on your career field. You provide the information and we build the page together to have the Client select you.  We do require that you have at least three (3) years experience in that career field. An example of the dedicated sales page can be found here.
   
2. You determine the hourly rate you want to charge - You decide it you want to select hourly phone/Skype ™ sessions and/or half, full or multiple day on-site sessions (depending on the type of career).  Career Redo will post those rates on your dedicated page.
3. You follow the steps above in HOW IT WORKS - Hold the session with your client.
4. Career Redo charges you a referral fee AFTER you get paid by your Client - The fee is equal to a specified percentage of the amount you collect in return for locating, attracting, and referring the Client to you.
5. Career Redo is a referral site - It is somewhat similar to how Home Advisor^TM operates.  You are an independent operator and are solely responsible for the services you provide to your Client. You are not an employee, agent, representative or contractor of Career Redo.
6. This process sets you up to become an independent entrepreneur - You can now present yourself as a business entrepreneur online.  You are open to operate with other entities.
