One of the most seemingly challenging issue often faced by students on campuses today are financial crisis. I have been there so I know, and you can attest to it if you are or know now if you don't.
The cost of moving from hostels off campus to school everyday, feeding, handouts/textbooks, general expenses, school fees, semester registration bills etc just to mention in few, are part of the killer factors that can make schooling miserable.
This is why except you got parents always funding you asap on request you need to get a side hustle on campus. Now in this short article I will be putting you through working strategies, tested and trusted that I have tried and had worked for me and is worthy of recommendation.
If you visit my blog dailyguide.com.ng you will know I am business minded and my guides are absolute. To this affirm this, let’s see these 2 monetization keys that will increase your financial life on campus.
Don’t be bothered about why I am only discussing two, there is no point having a long list and get you confused on which to pick. I will give you two with complete guide then you explore it!
Let’s Get Started…
Become A Freelancer or Subcontract It :
Who is a freelancer? A freelancer is someone who offers services for a fee and usually with no expectation of a permanent single client, although the working relationship can be ongoing. It's a form of self-employment, similar to operating a home business.
Do you know there are lots of services you can render on campus and get paid for?
Have you thought about selling project topics/materials? We have it on schoolgist.ng, all you need to do is market yourself on campus that you sell project topics, when you have anybody who wants to buy, you just come search for available projects under such department on SchoolGist and inflate the price, the person pays you, you buy cheap from SchoolGist and keep your balance.
Have you thought about designing blogs and websites for associations on campus? Departments, fellowships, etc they will pay you real well to get that done. You might not know how to do it but you can subcontract it to someone who can. Negotiate with the person, get a high pay from who you are designing for and pay the designer less then keep your balance.
Have you thought about selling past questions to jambites coming into your school? General post utme wraps are all over the Net, add some spices to yours and compile it into PDFs then create a platform for yourself where jambites can buy, it can be on Jim it’s Facebook groups, nairaland, jambites WhatsApp groups etc.
This is is just to mention few under freelancing. Follow my blog(www.dailyguide.com.ng) to buy my ebook on how to make money on campus.
2. Start A Campus Gist Blog:
Oh my God! This is on blazing idea you can afford to miss.
What about having a blog like lasugist.com, unilagnews.com, unibengist.com, fuoyenews.com etc awesome right.
Now this is an added advantage to you because you can do all sort of freelancing on it.
You can sell postume past questions
You can sell project topics.
You can sell tangible stuff like wears, and deliver to people within the campus, you know these are what students like.
Advertising for people is also one great way of getting your money on your blog.
Another head banging idea is when you jambites about entering your school are always following your blog and you decide to be an agent for those that want to get a hostel off campus.
Just create a space for that on your blog and discuss with a trustworthy agent and just as people are contacting you for hostels you refer them to your agent, your agent get paid and give you your share on each student.
Lol ...mouth watering right? Yes but you need a platform which is a bog and you can design it yourself for a token and start making your money.
So in a nutshell, these are the two powerful ways you can start rolling in cash on campus and become a better person.
