Need More Money to Cover Your Wedding Expenses? Manage it with a Side Hustle

If your wedding date is on the horizon and you need funds to make your dream wedding by Events Unleashed a reality, a side hustle might be the ideal option for you. More than 48 percent of people use their side gig money for extra spending.

Manage Your Side Gig Wisely to Make More Money 
Side hustles are any type of employment that is undertaken besides a full-time job. Side gigs have become more accessible in the last few years, and it's primarily due to the gig economy and developments in technology. If you already have a side job but have a hard time with money or managing the job, here are a few tips on how to do that.

Choose the Right Side Hustle 
Every hustle is different, and whether or not a side job is a nightmare or a dream gig will depend on various factors that include your goals, personality, and skills. Consider freelancing, which allows you to create your own hours and work whenever you can. Freelancing is perhaps the ideal side gig as it provides a lot of flexibility, often more money than a regular part-time job, and can eventually become your primary source of income.
 
Numerous industries — including IT, accounting and finance, sales and marketing, and more — will always need freelancers. Web development, digital marketing, or grant writing are fantastic freelance job ideas. Being a grant writer, for instance, requires experience in proposal writing, as well as good communication skills. On the other hand, developing websites or other media requires design skills and a good eye. Whether you're a creative person or a salesperson, finding a side hustle that you enjoy doing is the key to success.

Market Your Skills and Outsource 
You need a virtual platform to get the word out on your services. Whether it’s a website or an online job board profile (or both), this will get you more exposure and expansion opportunities. Today, you can choose a website builder yourself, create a web page, upload your content, and market it with a few clicks. This method is cost-effective and time-saving, as well as user-friendly for a freelancer. Numerous freelance websites and online job platforms also allow you to create a profile, market yourself, and bid for your desired jobs. This makes it easier for you as you don't need to spend time advertising your services in other places.
 
Master the Concept of Energy Management 
With a side hustle, how do you find the extra time to work it out? It will help if you experiment with everything — from getting up earlier to using your spare time to focus on your side job. Use tech tools like Microsoft Outlook or Google Calendar to block off time dedicated for it and reclaim some of your weekends. If you’re concerned about how the extra work might encroach on your wedding planning, Events Unleashed has wedding planning packages that can take a lot of time and worry out of your hands so you can be sure to get the wedding you deserve and are working hard for.
 
More important than time management is energy management. If you're a morning person, work on your side job done early in the day, if possible, when you're more focused. If you're a night owl, you may be more productive in the evenings.

Do Something You Enjoy 
It's great to earn an extra income to pay for your wedding, but remember that side gigs are more enjoyable when you do what you like. Overall, to be able to manage your side gig is to choose the right side hustle, outsource, and market yourself thoroughly. Above all, learn to manage your time wisely.
