11 Ways to Make Money as a Victorious Woman

This is not a general blog based on research we found on the internet. Instead, we have created a list of opportunities that have been tried and tested by ourselves and other women in our network! So yes queens, THEY WORK!

Always remember, not everything will work for you. Time, effort, passion, and consistency are required in business. If you are not willing to put in the hard work you will never reap the results.

And to the moms who say they never have enough time on their hands. We want you to read our blog on How To Live A Balanced Life As A Woman. We have been in your position before with kids to raise, people to take care of, 9-5s to manage, and personal health to keep up with but still managed to start businesses that made us the successful women we are today.

 

OKAY! Without wasting any further time, here is a list of ways to make money for women!

Easy Ways to Make Extra Money

1. Sell or Resell Items: 

The internet has created the best marketplaces where you can buy and sell almost anything. If you need a quick and easy way to make more money as a woman declutter your home and turn unused items into cash by selling them on e-commerce platforms like Facebook Marketplace, eBay, or Etsy. Clear, high-resolution photos and competitive pricing can help attract buyers.

 

The more complex version: Flipping Items

Once we had sold all of the junk we no longer used, we realized that there was nothing else to sell which meant it was the end of the road for this income stream. However, we enjoyed the experience of restoring old items, listing them on Facebook Marketplace, and acting as saleswomen now and then so we decided to find a way to take this business further. We searched all the marketplaces for items we thought were being sold for too little money and bought them. Once delivered to our place, we cleaned up the items better, took better photos than the previous seller (all with our iPhone), and listed them for more on Facebook Marketplace! Business was booming.

2. Find Jobs on Upwork:

Many startup businesses can't afford to hire agencies to assist them with various projects they have. These business owners end up looking for freelancers on online platforms to perform certain tasks for them for a decent paycheck.

Explore freelance opportunities on Upwork, where you can find a wide range of jobs that suit your skills and interests, from writing and design to programming and animation.

This is your opportunity to turn that skill you have into extra monthly income. The easiest method one of our Victresses used to make an extra 5 figure income for herself was designing thumbnails for Youtubers. She used Canva for all of her designs and offered her services on Fivver and Upwork. People loved her work and she would get gigs every week that only took about an hour of her day to complete! 

3. Start a Blog:

Share your passion and expertise with the world by starting a blog and monetizing it through advertising and sponsored content. Build an audience on social media to drive traffic to your blog and maximize your earnings. 

This income-generating skill is a bit more time-intensive than the rest but there are various AI tools such as ContentAI, Seemrush, and Chatgpt that will make the journey easier for you. What we love the most about it is that it is one of the few that can create recurring PASSIVE income for you.

4. Offer Pet Sitting at Home:

If you love animals and have a pet-friendly home, consider offering pet-sitting services to earn extra income. Market your services locally and provide a safe and nurturing environment for furry friends.

5. Write or Review Resumes:

Put your writing skills to use by offering resume writing or review services. Charge competitive rates and deliver high-quality resumes that help clients stand out in their job search.

Here are the more profitable ways to make money as a woman (these are harder but a lot more profitable. Think of them as profitable businesses you can start as a woman rather than side hustles).

6. Start an Online Business 

To be honest with you, WE LOVE THIS ONE THE MOST! Starting an online business has been one of the most profitable and sustainable methods we use to pave our way to financial success and freedom.

This always starts as dropshipping (where you find a wholesaler or supplier and resell their goods on your website) and from there we scale upwards till we have our own unique products that we manufacture and sell.

 

We enjoyed this so much that we have a team of people that design online stores for business owners and we have released an entire book on how to successfully start your own online business!

9. Rent Out Your Home or a Room:
