The One Week Budget

(Book coming soon!)
  • Craigslist: Things To Do: March 27,2010


    $TIP OF THE DAY: How to find a side hustle in 1 hour or less!

    1) Go to http://www.craigslist.com and choose your state and region.
    2) Select part-time/ etc (etcetera) and/or the field you currently work or want to in.
    3) Pick key words that describe the type of work your looking for, be flexible
    3) Quickly revamp your resume (objective) to be more inclusive as well as references.
    4) Apply to no less than 5 jobs via email each day. Be sure to include your resume & brief note w/ your # in the email.
    5) Get ready to get hired!

    Brief note/email example:

    Hi _______

    My name is Tiffany Aliche. I am responding to your craigslist ad for a tutor. I’ve been a teacher for 8yrs and would love to be considered for this position! I have attached my resume and references for your review. I look forward to hearing from you soon!

    All the best,

    Tiffany Aliche

    The trick is to apply to positions at night, after 8pm or early morning, before 9am (or both).
    Check your field everyday around the same time, that way you can get the drop on new posts.

    Last week , I decided I wanted to earn an extra $500 a month and have fun while doing so. I found a company that gives sample sale tours in the NYC Fashion District. They were hiring tour guides ($100 a tour). I applied that day, no response. I Google the company and called. The lady I spoke to told me to email her directly and set up an interview for 3 days later. I went to the interview and yesterday received and email that said I got the job! Now all I have to do is 5 tours a month to reach my goal, and I get to do it while doing something fun!!!

    Honestly this always happens for me on craigslist. Don't be afraid to:
    -Email post up to 2 weeks old (sometimes the position hasn't been filled)
    -Call if you don't receive a response in 2 days, if you can't find the number, email again (persistence pays)
    -Stay positive, good vibes yield good things...:)

    If you have anymore questions, you can ask away...
