Notable Quotes From The Book

I was surprised with the ones that rose to the top, a couple that I have never even heard of. Sona is a project management software online that is free for up to 15 members of your team. Any small business that is just getting started can use this software and this was one of the most popular answers in the whole study we did. Another one was PicMonkey which is an online editing software. I am going through all these tools as well and testing them out for myself.

The Credibility/Inspiration Of The Author

I am the chief side hustler at sidehustlenation.com where I get to experiment with a bunch of different part-time business opportunities trying to make money outside of your traditional 9-5 job and I help other people do the same. I have been running that for a little over a year, it’s been an absolute blast and so if you’re interested in trying to develop some job-free income streams of your own, come on over and join me.

The inspiration for me is the joy of discovery, that new tool that’s going to help you save even just five minutes a day.
