    Hello everyone!

    I had a question. What are some profitable work from home opportunities that you don't need to invest money into to make a part-time income? Any help would be appreciated. :)

    Hmm. Not very many other than surveys.

    What are some examples of such jobs aside from surveys? (I've tried surveys and haven't made more than $20.00 profit. It is very laborious and time intensive.)

    No company will pay you if you look...most require some investment and you will lose it eventually.

    Create your own opportunity. If you can do something creative online or can offer a service, just use DIgital Point to offer services or if you can make creative things then join etsy.com

    Hope that helps,

    Sarah

    Very true which is why I started up elance and getafreelancer but can you really make a yearly part-time income off of those? (Data Entry + Transcription)

    If you don't want to invest money than you must invest skill or time. Time is valued at maybe $2/day in the global market.

    What are your skills?

    If your goals are short term then I suggest that you review any relevant forums in the BST-Services forums for projects that you can find profitable.

    If your goals are longer term than your skills seem diverse enough that you can have a goal of running web sites. And then I would suggest that you use some short term projects to buy or fund the building of websites for long term profit.

    Spend time reading here in the forums to help find your niche. The search function truly is your friend at DP.

    Great advice. I'll definitely check the services out. I don't believe I've looked thoroughly into it yet. Thank you again! :)
