Even before many people across the globe started opting to work from home in an effort to reduce the spread of COVID-19, remote work has been a popular choice, both for creatives and for those who are interested in making their own schedules.
Below, Nomad Niche goes over a few of the simpler ways to make money remotely, which will set you up to be more flexible and adaptable as we head into this new decade.
Copywriting
Every business needs a good copywriter to craft their materials — whether it’s for a website, a brochure, a company blog, a business proposal, and anything else a business might need to whip up in order to get their message across. Copywriters can make good money, set their own hours and rates, not to mention go out and get as many clients as they’re able to handle… that is, unless a larger company prohibits this as a condition of working with them.
Data Entry
Data entry might seem like somewhat of a monotonous job, but it’s an incredibly easy way to make money. You’ll have to get used to working with spreadsheets, but you’ll be able to crank up your favorite podcast or album and the time will start to fly by as the paychecks start to roll in.
Consultant
Do you have expertise that is in demand? Many businesses look to consultants to help them with various aspects of their day-to-day operations, both for large and small projects. Many consultants in this day and age work as contractors and many of them work remotely, which will make you a candidate for jobs around the globe.
Web Developer/Designer
Web developers and designers have been working remotely since before it was cool. All you need is a computer and a steady internet connection. Build your client base by crafting amazing, user-friendly sites or designing eye-catching logos — the world is your oyster. Web developers and web designers are only going to be in more demand as more businesses rely upon online marketing to get their message across.
Medical Transcriptionist
As hospitals get bogged down by COVID-19 cases, this is going to be a remote job that will be in demand pretty much immediately. All you need is a computer and reliable listening equipment for recorded medical dictation to get started. You’ll also be helping a great cause.
