If you know a musical instrument, giving private lessons to kids in middle school and high school is extremely lucrative. Especially if you live in a city with wealthy suburbs and competitive music programs. This is what my roommate from college does now. He was an allstate saxophonist. Sessions are usually 30-45 minutes for $70 dollars. He does about 15-20 a week in the north dallas suburbs. Some charge $100-120 per session if they are more experienced.
Is there a better side hustle (legal) than Personal Trainer?

Worked at a gym as a GM of training for a little over a year
shyt is not what it's cracked up to be
Is a very nice side hustle
But it takes a long time and a lot of marketing yourself to be able to build up a base like that
Your homie is the exception not the rule, trust

Not gonna lie intially it was hard as fukk, I literally had one client for about 7-8 months, u got to put in the work, go to dog parks, vets ,figure out when the ASPCA is doin vaccinations (which is almost everyday) handing out cards and putting up fliers.
Most importantly I got a little website and an Instagram page and their are a couple pet sitting sites that I use.
I went from one client in 8 months, to about the 10 in 9 months.
shyt is lovely, just started registration on my business about to hire a couple people in the next couple weeks.
Its gonna be a hot summer...
I know how to game instagram too. If setup an IG page with a few thousand followers you think that'll improve my chances? You can say you'll take pics of their og and try and get them famous or some shyt...idk Why do you use instagram?How much do you charge per dog?

How much do you charge per dog?
I'm not big on social media, but its really so that prospective clients can see u in action, I'm not into the thousands of followers. I follow more people , than people follow me.
Thr great thing about it is that the startup cost is really low, and I don't have to interact with people during my day .
I charge $15 per 30 mins, 25 for an hour

Its a hustle only if your attractive and fit. I know a lot of fit people who wouldn tbe able to build a client base on the fact they arent visually appealing.]]Theres soething about a sexy ass woman whose in amazing shape that makes women think they can be like her.
Same with men, a lot of chicks will get with an attractive PT because he is so attractive. Men see the attention dude garners and hope they can be him.
At least thats how I see it in my small minded world lol.

True, a lot easier if you have a sculpted body and cool personality. Just get your social media game up and the money will increase. I followed that dude Mike Rashid a while back for workouts on youtube. Now dude has his own independent supplement and apparel line. Dude is siting on major dough right now. There is dude I grew up with that did the same thing and he is in the six figures easy. He got on social media early and built up his client base while he was in college.
dude in my office does it PT says profit not bad if you have a car with good fuel economy

Exactly, if you are attractive...all they got do is set up an instagram account...take pictures. Once people start doing their #wcw #mcm followers will increase and people will be setting that person as a body/looks standard that they want to reach.

I'm just saying there's dudes on youtube that were pretty much my go-to "trainers" as far as info and giving me structure with exercise.

I'm really considering becoming a shooting coach...They charge 25 dollars an hour per kid in this area and I took my daughter to a session the other day with about 30 kids..With another 25 or so line up for the next hour session.. Basically doing stuff you can learn off of youtube.. Even if you have to rent out a gym for a few hundred a day its still a good come up..
