6 WAYS TO MAKE MONEY BEFORE & DURING CHRISTMAS HOLIDAYS

 

#1 RENT OUT THINGS

Renting or leasing is the process of allowing someone to use a property which belongs to you for a given period in exchange for a payment. There are several things you can rent out during Christmas like:

An extra room: Companies like Airbnb will help you to find customers looking for homes/houses to stay in case they travelled to foreign countries for Christmas holiday celebrations and parties.

Money: If you want money to host a holiday party, these online loans sites for bad credit have many lenders willing you to give a fast approval unsecured loan. My personal favorite in Zippy Loan because they have a fast approval within 3 to 5 business days.

A car: You can list your car at GetAround then interested clients will hire it for use in different holiday activities. You can also allow car advertising companies to place Christmas-related ads on your car then they will pay you.

#6 MAKE CHRISTAMAS CONTENT

There are so many forms of Christmas content ideas like;

• Blog posts like this one you are reading
• E-books
• Videos for Youtube and other social media platforms.
• Courses hosted on platforms like Udemy or Teachable
• Audio content for podcasts
• Images for social media accounts.

I know you are probably wondering how you make money with content. Affiliate marketing where you promote products within the content is one way. When people buy the product using your affiliate links, you earn a commission.

Placing ads on that content is also another way you can make money. For instance, do you notice you come across ads from Mediavine as you read this post?

Brand endorsement is also another way where you mention or write reviews for brands selling or producing Christmas products within the content then they pay you.
