No Mandi you are an indie publisher and author. An artist with a day job, can self finance (easier) and write off business expenses for equipment, supplies and publishing related services. It can be a great way to test the waters and still receive a paycheck from your non-direct patron. A good CPA can help.
my son is a very experienced Graphic Designer working from home so he can take care of his disabled son who by watching daddy is becoming an artist too.

Im a graphic designer but it is not that easy to become a good graphic designer. Its actually a little bit tricky. Also video editing can be more complicated
Yes so true. I’m a filmmaker and video/film editing is not easy to learn and with technology forever changing you have to stay up to date. I learn something new all the time even though I’m seasoned
Can't agree with their hair. Very intelligent woman, nothing interesting about the hair. If she can make it into a curly Afro, that may be interesting. She's not an unattractive woman for people that like European features.
I am a disabled engineer, and I found the video helpful from the standpoint of exposure to types of jobs I'd never heard of. I'm sure she could (and maybe already has) make multiple videos explaining each of the 12 in more detail. Gillian, my only suggestion would be to try for fewer edits (I found it distracting to see an edit mid-sentence in some cases). Of course that would mean practicing more and having the creation of the video take 2 or 3 times longer, and obviously you're a busy person. Hope your travel went well.
Really wow, I've worked as a freelancer for Graphic/ Web Designing I used to earn 5k $ to 7k$ per month so easily by just dedicating my self to work. Though I stopped doing freelancing b/c my eyesight were effecting I was too much in it😄 then I switched my passion to Painting & those designing skills really helped me to visualize , selling Painting online & on local venders also made a good turn, though it's difficult to make market but nothing is impossible 😉 Very good content, highly appreciated, remind me some good memories too. ☺️
Great video, Gillian! I felt the most affinity with web designer but I appreciate all of your content. Oh, and I like the blush pink top you are wearing in the video too.
Hello Gillian you are so helpful! I was browsing u-tube and doing many searches on writing a book and your channel came up. I was so glad that I for your channel because you are so straight forward and most of all YOU TELL THE TRUTH!!!!😃😃 You really explain everything in great details! I was impress on you self publishing your own book! You are a inspiration. I've always did small side gigs on the side, but I never do anything for long term. I know for sure that I need to start my own business, sister I commend you for taking the leap of faith in starting your own business! My promblem is that I procrastinated to much. This year I told myself No more PROCRASTINATING!!!! I recently got laid off last week and I was devastated, I told myself that never again will I ever work for anyone again. So I'm seriously looking for ways I can work at home. I'm interested in self publishing, selling printables, creating on line courses. I need to totally work for myself so Thank You for your Wisdom! Please continue sharing your knowledge. I will always be watching your channel you are amazing!!!!
Hi Gillian! I love your informative videos. You make such useful content. You should vlog! So many moms would love to watch your daily family life. You are an inspiration! Cheers!
Thanks for this video. I have worked from home as video editor and customer service pro apps specialist but due to recent health issues, I lost my job of 23 years to a younger, cheaper person. I need to reinvent myself and you have given me great ideas. Thanks.
Omg, she is Fantastic!! No more giberish actual information that can actually increase your income. Thank you so much for this blog, And God bless you.
Super helpful video you’ve made there! I’m currently working as a graphic designer for a local business but I find it very unsatisfactory and at the same time I do not want to move to a bigger city so I’m thinking of starting something online. Your video was very detailed, I’m going to download the e-book now. Thank you so much!
Thank you so much Gillian for the information, it was very helpful! I work M-F 7-6 in physical labor & want to transition out of my career into something more flexible so I can enjoy the quality of life better. I'm working on some EBooks right now but I'm also going to try to sell items on Amazon to get the ball rolling quicker for passive income. Your videos are very inspiring & informative. Keep up the great work!
Hey Gillian. Just a gem, seriously. I am interested in a few things you've mentioned. But I would really like to see a video on the legal and tax side of having these businesses because I can't just accept money for this and to then just get in trouble with irs. Lol.
Maybe I'll do a video like that in the future :) Honestly though, the legal and tax side of running your own business (at least in the US) is *way* easier than most people expect. :)
Two words to describe you: amazingly inspirational and indisputably helpful. I am gonna take graphic and web designer options and see what will come out of it. Thanks and Be blessed!!
@@gillianzperkins I think how much you put in. Is what you will get out of it just like haveing a baby if you eat good food do all your doctor visits take your vitamins take care of your sel then you should have a successful beautiful baby witch this is life in the same Manor if you can understand what I'm saying as for the men good practice makes good perfection
Gillian, I have not worked outside the house since Feb 2009. That was right after I had my last baby. Now, I am a stay at home mom to my 3 kids and I homeschool them all. My husband is now disabled and I am truly desperate to make money while at home.
ive seen a lot of videos like this, and this is by far the most realistic and comprehensive video in my opinion. Thanks for going through each one and letting people know how to start if we dont have any background in the job you described. Gives us some direction on where to start looking for courses etc...
Gillian I REALLY appreciated this video and EVERYTHING you mentioned here. Nice work! I"m just beginning to research on line creative businesses that I can take into retirement working from the beach, and I thoroughly enjoyed listening to you. Many thanks girl!
Thanks for this! I was highly trained as a writer and editor back in the days when everyone expected you to go to an office. I’m ready to do this work from home since I live in a smaller community where these jobs are scarce. You just gave me the launch pad!
There's actually a career path for that! It goes sugar baby (entry level) --> rich guy's gf ---> rich guy's wife. But be warned--you'll be working every day of your life!
I was doing graphic designs, and coding at the age of 8. I do not have above average intelligence, and in fact, I'm not very focused either. It's all down to a will to learn, and being open to growth and technology. Also, the title of the video also didn't imply "easy to start jobs", just highest paid at home jobs, that's not synonymous. Best of luck!
These 12 jobs are great! There are also a bunch of untraditional jobs that we see that are flipping to be remote-friendly these days. I travel with Hacker Paradise, a community of remote workers, and we have seen people who work-from-home or work remotely even in fields like real estate and medicine that you would traditionally have thought you have to be present for. So cool to see the world moving to be more remote-friendly!
I have a BA in graphic design and jobs don't all pay as much as posted. And you do need a visual portfolio, references etc. You can't be a graphic designer online unless you know web design as well.
it is very hard to get a job with web design and so if you don't have absolutely any skill in that because this days mostly is searched for skilled people ..bummer
Good content! Thank you. I have done some research on my own, and I would say I have found this to be consistent with everything I have found so far. I have been a web designer on a small level before, and only charged $50 per page using CMS, which is a LOT simpler than HTML - pretty much drag and drop. I studied the foremost CMS webstie provider at the time, about 10 years ago, and I got a few clients. Most people wanted the HTML sites, so I was VERY niche. But to be able to make a little cash off of a hobby was cool. I charged $1000 for an SEO package and that was my bread and butter. I am going to try my hand at a couple of these ideas as life has changed for me and I stay home with my toddler who demands MOST if not ALL of my attention and energy throughout the day. Thanks again for the info!
I think this is the most honest YT video on work-at-home-jobs I've ever watched. Thanks for sharing. I'm going to download your E-book and see what I can do with it. I did make some web-sites (about 20 years ago in simple HTML), so maybe I'll return to that. A lot of things have changed during that time but one never knows.
I work from home (for 2 different companies) teaching english to children in China! You need to be enrolled to get a bachelors or have a bachelors. I love it!
*when Tami and Jack together on training, magic happens. Members of the group get exclusive and well-constructed product training designed to make sales. Great stuff*
@@MAG320 no. Its just I live near cape town and you made it seem as if cape town was special in a way. I just wanted to know why u wanted to come to cape town specifically. Sorry to bother you.
Come on! You don't need to go to collage to be a graphic designer.. but you could never get to be a good designer learning online if you don't have talent! This video ... Come on.... I dont usually give bad comments but this video is really offensive for all of the real professionals out there.
One thing which is huge- if you freelance you will be taxed up the wazzoo because you’re considered a business. Its usually better to work for an employer.
You are SO right Gillian....time is money and filling out the dang surveys is just ridiculous! If you want an extra 20 bucks, then surveys might work. lol great video
What are these surveys people are filling out? I wonder if we can combine programming and surveys to create some software that completes the survey for you?
1) Re graphic Designer: I do rthis but on a non-commercial basis. Granted, I have 50 years of technology exposure and 955 of what I know in 3 languages is self-gained. I originally learned technical drawing on a drafting board before CAD or computers were really in the business scene. When I started with computers, I used then Ashton-Tate's Framework 4, more or less like a wndows before windows existed. Since then I have built/modified many computers, and used Various versions of Windows as well as OS/2-Warp. So all in all I know there are alternatives. One of these is open source, but you will need to do some learning and that ongoing! Instead of Photoshop, which costs money, learn to use Gimp. It's open source, cross platform (so you can have it in Windows if you like, but personally I am a Linux user.) that will deal with the raster graphics, but you will need to spend significant time to become adequately proficient. Gimp also can do some degree of vectorization, but to then use that in a vectorial encironment comparable to Illustrator, you will need to do another dose of learning. some applications that can use the paths or vectorial components that can be generated in Gimp are Libre Office Draw, Inkscape and there are many more, many of which are also open source and cross platform. While a graphic designer might not think being able to work oin 3D cad is important to them, I would not necessarily agree. It all depends on what kind of clients you would want to serve. Also, graphic design can also be a component going into a video. and for that (but in Linux) you might well want to learn about Pitivi. Presently I have a vide started in Pitive for which I have done a draft rendering. the rendering process demands a powerful machine, so as your business grows b e prepared to reinvest. In thast video is a visual demonstration of the dynamics of various categories of dialectic balances and why some are more problematic to humanity than others. The video part is largely done, however for the sound, I have another challenge (as I suspect some of the You Tubers also do. Some You tube vodeos have no sound and a lot is lost, especially in the demonstration of complex technical tasks. Others have what seems to be synthesized voice. This lacks good control of the parlance especially as to syllabic timing and cadence. Using Audacity-freeworld (a Linux version of the cross platform Audacity, I have a whole sound studio on a PC. As it were an electronic cutting room and more, but that alone is unlikely to be adequate for the quality of sound I ultimately expect to produce. Add to that that I might want to do this in English, French and Spanish, and I LOVE my public speaking, but with advancing age, my voice has become too gravelly to ask an audience to listen to that alone. so I will hybridise the sound. Hybridizing is always somewhat more complicated but it also can solve problems otherwisr unsolvable. But all this takes time to set up and learn, so while this matters les to me being retoired. when your object is to make money and build a home bisiness, yoou might start small, but not so small as to be under the minimum of your market, then grow the learning, the equipment and the skills concurrently. This will optimize the growth, but also it wil demand maximum committment. Growthe is exponential as are learning curves, and even reproduction. so be prepared for the ardour of the beginning.
I'm a babysitter in NYC. I am paid $25/hr for 8 hrs a day and 5 days a week. It pays my rent and everything. It's just exhausting. I'm surprised you dissed it. My friend is paid higher at $350 a day for same hours. That's cash!
I'm a copywriter with notable experience, but have not found the approach mentioned to be a realistic money making venture. Online sites like Fiverr have trained employers to expect work done for 5 bucks, not the $40-60 per hr. my profession customarily pays offline, assuming you can GET a gig. And, as roles are temporary, you can go many months with no income in between. That's been my experience, at least. Getting consistent, repeat clients is the catch, and unfortunately this video doesn't explain how that's really done on a long term basis. Could I make $80k+ working from home? Unlikely.
It's a mixture of gut-wrenching and heart drop feelings when I realize how much I've been underselling myself and doing most of these for my clients. much. needed. enlightenment.
Interesting information Gillian. I own a franchise that operatates from home (home office) very convenient for building maintenance. I can give you further information. Thank you.
This video is reeeeally motivating! I'm a creative person and I know I can learn ANYTHING if I want it. I'm an entrepreneur for 1.5 years now. But it feels like I didn't really "find myself". This video helped me to get my focus back on what might work for me - thanks for that :)
It's a really nice video but some of these videos are a little easier said then done- like Graphic Design is EXTREMELY COMPETITIVE and most people goto school for a BFA. While just teaching yourself is a nice idea and maybe taking a few classes would help, but you'll be going up against people who have gone to school for 4+ years and have BFAs or MFAs on it and most likely will get a serious job before you especially in an oversaturated market.
I work from home as an interpreter. I work only part time Monday-Thursday and make my own schedule. Don’t make tons of money like she’s mentioning, but it’s not bad. No stress job.
This was interesting! As a cronic ill person, working from home makes it so that I can work more than I could have if I worked some oher place.. I don't know what I should do yet, because my illness came just two years ago :)
Thanks :) I just have to build my life around my illness, since there is no getting (much) better :) Want to write books, so maybe that's my life a few years from now :) Who knows :)
Ten years ago, I started editing marketing content for small to mid size companies and it was going well for a while. I have found that a micro niche was created by the beginning of 2013. These companies and even freelancers started creating their own video content without hiring help as a byproduct that showcases what they do for a living. There are loads of smartphone apps people are using now instead of actual software. I'm not sure how long this trend will last.
Looove these videos!! I'm starting to create similar ones on my channel but it's so good to be introduced to new ways to make money from home. Thankyou for your valuable content, much appreciated x
I wanna add 2 more jobs to make it 14 one is medical biller and second is the medical coder. I have been doing both from home since 2016 and it pays good.
From General doctor offices. But Lemme tell you first this job is not for everybody, its a highly responsible job and yeah you need to know medical terms know how and billing procedures to get fluent. I had taken Biology in High School so understanding medical and health terms was not hard for me. I worked for Billing solution company and they trained me for quite a while. I worked there for more than one year then me and my colleague decided to freelance and now we are doing it. I would recommend joining a billing company or even health insurance as a processor to get a grip for 1 year or so and then try freelancing.
Tiana Hardy it depends, I am working for an Mri facility so they easily pay me $2400+ per month but general doctors and chiropractors or doctors with just ultrasound machine like thing pay really less as there bill is not as high and we work at 5% of what they get every month
Bravo! I've probably WATCHED all those videos about taking surveys you mention! Not only that, but the creators sometimes just change the order and release them again the following week. I thought all your suggestions were good ones. Looking forward to seeing what's next!
I have become disabled and had to stop working at the job i was doing . Since then till now i have been looking for online work i only just saw your channel two days ago. i need your help.
This is a great list! I've been working as a integrated producer for ad agencies, but I recently injured and need to work from home. This video gave me some good ideas.
Hi Gillian! Two options stood up to me: becoming an author and Amazon seller. What are the risks though? I am quite hesitant, but have been wanting to publish my crochet works and sell the finished products. Thank you, Elena
Thank you for this info AND for mentioning surveys, they pay crap and take so much time!!! So many people do say that they are a great way to earn money online and at home, but in my experience they are absolutely not!
Web design actually sounds very appealing....I have a newborn on the way, and never really knew what I wanted to do after highschool all I knew is that I wanted to make a decent living but didn't know where to start...and I knew I didn't want to have to get up and go into somebody's office for the rest of my life, well now I'm 23 with my own baby due in a week or so, so I think I'm going to look into web design. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you💜💜💜
Could you suggest some sites that teach how to do Facebook ads, please? I’ve lost everything including my home in Hurricane Harvey and desperately need a way to get an income going. I also don’t know how you find clients to write ads.
There is a cheap class about how to do PPC in udemy of Isaac Rudansky call ultimate guide to adwords. Take the adwords certification and that will help you to understand online ads. Each platform is different but that is an awesome start. A lot of jobs on ppc
Gillian Perkins Because if you dont have any of these skills or experience or a product. You cant start any of these jobs/businesses right away, or even start looking till you paid some money to gain the experience, or developed a product lol... And idk about this person but if theyre anything like me, i dont have a few grand or hundreds of dollars laying around to experiment with... Lol i need money now lol... Just saying... But thanks for sharing this is something to look into for the future.
JonVieSays true , soo much info is free online though , anyone can learn a skill if they really want to . Just look at the beauty industry , all these gals are learning how to apply makeup like a pro w/out ever going to school .
Social Media Manager, Editor and Online Business Manager jobs appealed to me the most and I want to get started researching each job. Thank you so much for this information.
My husband and myself ran and managed our own business for over ten years. I feel we did quite well, and would be interested in learning about this line of work, on line.
I applied for a job as a secret shopper for a major retail store. I was denied a job literally because and I was told this that my personal criteria isn't diverse enough. I'm caucasian, 50 and middle class. Most of my friends are from PR, Mex or Latino. My friend who is Latino, 45, middle class and most of her friends are caucasian or black, she got the job. Was I discriminated against, age or racially OR BOTH?
Alrese Holmes . Awwwwwwe. This is terrible. I have an idea we can maybe explore. I got a dui too (long long time ago) but check it out. DUI Attorneys need help answering phones from new offenders who just need initial reassurance "everything is gonna be allll right.". Then offer them to come in at their choice of next Wed or Fri .. would 9 am or 3 pm work best? Attorneys pay upwards of $200 per successful booking. Rinse and repeat. Contact me if you want to discuss or whatever.
I am a TH-camr myself, but I am also doing some of those 12 work-at-home jobs for small businesses/clients. And this video is really helpful to me to find out other opportunities in this field. Thanks lots, Gillian !! I know not everybody agree with you, but never mind...keep up the good work !!

Thanks so much for your amazing feedback! Congrats on finding something and making a decision to pursue it
@@gillianzperkins I think how much you put in. Is what you will get out of it just like haveing a baby if you eat good food do all your doctor visits take your vitamins take care of your sel then you should have a successful beautiful baby witch this is life in the same Manor if you can understand what I'm saying as for the men good practice makes good perfection
I like the idea of publishing books on Amazon Kindle. But I need some funds to really get my business going.
Gillian, I have not worked outside the house since Feb 2009. That was right after I had my last baby. Now, I am a stay at home mom to my 3 kids and I homeschool them all. My husband is now disabled and I am truly desperate to make money while at home.
ive seen a lot of videos like this, and this is by far the most realistic and comprehensive video in my opinion. Thanks for going through each one and letting people know how to start if we dont have any background in the job you described. Gives us some direction on where to start looking for courses etc...
Gillian I REALLY appreciated this video and EVERYTHING you mentioned here.
Nice work! I"m just beginning to research on line creative businesses that I can take into retirement working from the beach, and I thoroughly enjoyed listening to you.
Many thanks girl!
Tina Mack Tina Mack I would like to do the same.
@@jenniferkathleengoodeaux2327 I want to check out Mexico SOON wanna go I need a travel buddy???!!! Lol
I started designing as a kid for a cs 1.6 clan (old school) now i am making around 3k and working 5h a month
Thanks for this! I was highly trained as a writer and editor back in the days when everyone expected you to go to an office. I’m ready to do this work from home since I live in a smaller community where these jobs are scarce. You just gave me the launch pad!
I just want a job that allows me to shop for whatever I want whenever I want. And where I don’t actually have to work.. is that too much to ask?? 😂
It allows u for shopping too
There's actually a career path for that! It goes sugar baby (entry level) --> rich guy's gf ---> rich guy's wife. But be warned--you'll be working every day of your life!
Of course that's not too much to ask honey!
Is it too much to ask for a job that smell like roses and rainbows would come out my
Is it too much to ask for a job that smelled like roses
Terrible advice. You can’t just jump into graphic design, web design or video editing without a lot of training and expensive software.
JkRowlings Shrink check out Roberto Blake
Scarlet Light but you still put in a lot of time in learning the craft. OP's main comment says "you can't just jump in" on these jobs.
@Sherri Booker I made over 1,000 dollars last week online. Here's how I did it: BreakCash. info
Don’t be old and ignorant it’s 2018 12 year olds cold graphic design
I was doing graphic designs, and coding at the age of 8. I do not have above average intelligence, and in fact, I'm not very focused either. It's all down to a will to learn, and being open to growth and technology. Also, the title of the video also didn't imply "easy to start jobs", just highest paid at home jobs, that's not synonymous. Best of luck!
This was an exceptionally helpful video! Thank you so much! I'm definitely subscribing and checking out your website!
Thank you! Glad to hear that you found it so helpful!
These 12 jobs are great! There are also a bunch of untraditional jobs that we see that are flipping to be remote-friendly these days. I travel with Hacker Paradise, a community of remote workers, and we have seen people who work-from-home or work remotely even in fields like real estate and medicine that you would traditionally have thought you have to be present for. So cool to see the world moving to be more remote-friendly!
I have a BA in graphic design and jobs don't all pay as much as posted. And you do need a visual portfolio, references etc. You can't be a graphic designer online unless you know web design as well.
it is very hard to get a job with web design and so if you don't have absolutely any skill in that because this days mostly is searched for skilled people ..bummer
Very helpful! Thank you 😊 Also looking at online tutoring maybe
Great suggestion!
MissAmyxo tutoring is a great job!
MissAmyxo where to apply ?
What sites are u looking at
thinking of it too..let me knw if u know of any sites pls
Good content! Thank you. I have done some research on my own, and I would say I have found this to be consistent with everything I have found so far. I have been a web designer on a small level before, and only charged $50 per page using CMS, which is a LOT simpler than HTML - pretty much drag and drop. I studied the foremost CMS webstie provider at the time, about 10 years ago, and I got a few clients. Most people wanted the HTML sites, so I was VERY niche. But to be able to make a little cash off of a hobby was cool. I charged $1000 for an SEO package and that was my bread and butter. I am going to try my hand at a couple of these ideas as life has changed for me and I stay home with my toddler who demands MOST if not ALL of my attention and energy throughout the day. Thanks again for the info!
Thank you so much for this! The best work from home video I have come across! THANK YOU XOXO
Awesome! Definitely author, sales copyrighter, social media manager & course creator :D
great video love how honest you are thanks so much for sharing
I think this is the most honest YT video on work-at-home-jobs I've ever watched.
Thanks for sharing. I'm going to download your E-book and see what I can do with it.
I did make some web-sites (about 20 years ago in simple HTML), so maybe I'll return to that.
A lot of things have changed during that time but one never knows.
I work from home (for 2 different companies) teaching english to children in China! You need to be enrolled to get a bachelors or have a bachelors. I love it!
Great video Gillian! Awesome content, conveyed practically with tangible ways to apply the information. Thank you!
Whenever I hear fiverr and upwork, etc. It proves that you really have no chance because of one word, COMPETITION
Don't be self-defeating. Your customers will be your customers. There is no competition for what's meant for you.
*when Tami and Jack together on training, magic happens. Members of the group get exclusive and well-constructed product training designed to make sales. Great stuff*
i just want a job that allows me to feed my family
Speak for yourself. If I can work without showing up to an office, you best believe im on that plane to Cape Town.
@@MAG320 why cape town?
Does it matter the city?
@@MAG320 no. Its just I live near cape town and you made it seem as if cape town was special in a way. I just wanted to know why u wanted to come to cape town specifically. Sorry to bother you.
you will find!!
Come on! You don't need to go to collage to be a graphic designer.. but you could never get to be a good designer learning online if you don't have talent! This video ... Come on....
I dont usually give bad comments but this video is really offensive for all of the real professionals out there.
Agree!
Talent is learned....Not a birthright.
Great video! as always useful information...
Gillian, I just discovered your site and subscribed. Your 12 work from home list was absolutely on the money. Thanks.
One thing which is huge- if you freelance you will be taxed up the wazzoo because you’re considered a business. Its usually better to work for an employer.
You are SO right Gillian....time is money and filling out the dang surveys is just ridiculous! If you want an extra 20 bucks, then surveys might work. lol great video
Right?? Life is worth more than $6/hr. And there's so many more interesting, enjoyable ways to earn money!
Thanks for watching :)
Work From Home Like Kay (
What are these surveys people are filling out? I wonder if we can combine programming and surveys to create some software that completes the survey for you?
I'm a dog walker and make $25 dollars an hour 😁
Awesome! :)
lranieri1 where??
Thanks! Loving your videos!
Brokeass
I thought the same thing when she dissed dog walkers. I've heard that you can make good money at that, plus you get to get some exercise
1) Re graphic Designer: I do rthis but on a non-commercial basis. Granted, I have 50 years of technology exposure and 955 of what I know in 3 languages is self-gained.
I originally learned technical drawing on a drafting board before CAD or computers were really in the business scene.
When I started with computers, I used then Ashton-Tate's Framework 4, more or less like a wndows before windows existed.
Since then I have built/modified many computers, and used Various versions of Windows as well as OS/2-Warp.
So all in all I know there are alternatives.
One of these is open source, but you will need to do some learning and that ongoing!
Instead of Photoshop, which costs money, learn to use Gimp. It's open source, cross platform (so you can have it in Windows if you like, but personally I am a Linux user.) that will deal with the raster graphics, but you will need to spend significant time to become adequately proficient. Gimp also can do some degree of vectorization, but to then use that in a vectorial encironment comparable to Illustrator, you will need to do another dose of learning. some applications that can use the paths or vectorial components that can be generated in Gimp are Libre Office Draw, Inkscape and there are many more, many of which are also open source and cross platform.
While a graphic designer might not think being able to work oin 3D cad is important to them, I would not necessarily agree. It all depends on what kind of clients you would want to serve.
Also, graphic design can also be a component going into a video. and for that (but in Linux) you might well want to learn about Pitivi. Presently I have a vide started in Pitive for which I have done a draft rendering. the rendering process demands a powerful machine, so as your business grows b e prepared to reinvest. In thast video is a visual demonstration of the dynamics of various categories of dialectic balances and why some are more problematic to humanity than others.
The video part is largely done, however for the sound, I have another challenge (as I suspect some of the You Tubers also do.
Some You tube vodeos have no sound and a lot is lost, especially in the demonstration of complex technical tasks. Others have what seems to be synthesized voice. This lacks good control of the parlance especially as to syllabic timing and cadence.
Using Audacity-freeworld (a Linux version of the cross platform Audacity, I have a whole sound studio on a PC. As it were an electronic cutting room and more, but that alone is unlikely to be adequate for the quality of sound I ultimately expect to produce. Add to that that I might want to do this in English, French and Spanish, and I LOVE my public speaking, but with advancing age, my voice has become too gravelly to ask an audience to listen to that alone. so I will hybridise the sound. Hybridizing is always somewhat more complicated but it also can solve problems otherwisr unsolvable.
But all this takes time to set up and learn, so while this matters les to me being retoired. when your object is to make money and build a home bisiness, yoou might start small, but not so small as to be under the minimum of your market, then grow the learning, the equipment and the skills concurrently. This will optimize the growth, but also it wil demand maximum committment. Growthe is exponential as are learning curves, and even reproduction. so be prepared for the ardour of the beginning.
I'm a babysitter in NYC.
I am paid $25/hr for 8 hrs a day and 5 days a week.
It pays my rent and everything.
It's just exhausting.
I'm surprised you dissed it.
My friend is paid higher at $350 a day for same hours.
That's cash!
I'm a copywriter with notable experience, but have not found the approach mentioned to be a realistic money making venture. Online sites like Fiverr have trained employers to expect work done for 5 bucks, not the $40-60 per hr. my profession customarily pays offline, assuming you can GET a gig. And, as roles are temporary, you can go many months with no income in between. That's been my experience, at least. Getting consistent, repeat clients is the catch, and unfortunately this video doesn't explain how that's really done on a long term basis. Could I make $80k+ working from home? Unlikely.
Most of the successful copywriters I know focus heavily on networking with small business owners to continue to drive business and referrals. :)
Very helpful and well-researched video!
It's a mixture of gut-wrenching and heart drop feelings when I realize how much I've been underselling myself and doing most of these for my clients.
much. needed. enlightenment.
Thank you for the great job descriptions. Editor sounds good and would like to give it a try. Is there a market for spreadsheet developer?
FYI: pet sitters can easily make 50k/year.
I would love to be a pet sitter! How do I make that happen!?
I did that one 4th of July.
I had to replace my carpet and couch I didn’t continue that job.
Steffy Will fill out application with “Rover”

Interesting information Gillian. I own a franchise that operatates from home (home office) very convenient for building maintenance. I can give you further information. Thank you.
Yes! There are many options to explore to allow you to work without leaving from your home! Thanks for sharing!
This video is reeeeally motivating! I'm a creative person and I know I can learn ANYTHING if I want it. I'm an entrepreneur for 1.5 years now. But it feels like I didn't really "find myself". This video helped me to get my focus back on what might work for me - thanks for that :)
It's a really nice video but some of these videos are a little easier said then done- like Graphic Design is EXTREMELY COMPETITIVE and most people goto school for a BFA. While just teaching yourself is a nice idea and maybe taking a few classes would help, but you'll be going up against people who have gone to school for 4+ years and have BFAs or MFAs on it and most likely will get a serious job before you especially in an oversaturated market.
I was wondering, could you do a similar vid but for high schoolers??
Great idea! I'll add that to my list of ideas. :) Thank you!
Susan, most of these can be done by high schoolers. One advantage you have is a group of classmates that might be your first customer.
Sales copywriter is probably the best for me. I'm glad you put the nail on the head with those surveys. They take forever and not worth it.
I work from home as an interpreter. I work only part time Monday-Thursday and make my own schedule. Don’t make tons of money like she’s mentioning, but it’s not bad. No stress job.
This was interesting! As a cronic ill person, working from home makes it so that I can work more than I could have if I worked some oher place.. I don't know what I should do yet, because my illness came just two years ago :)
The Geeky Librarian May you be blessed with a healthy life soon. I know how you feel.
Thanks :) I just have to build my life around my illness, since there is no getting (much) better :) Want to write books, so maybe that's my life a few years from now :) Who knows :)
Thanks, and you to if you are still struggelig with illness of some kind! :)
The Geeky Librarian Yes, it’s been very tough for me too. But, I’m trying to count all the blessings I do have. Thank you!
Start NOW..these days there is no reason not to write..and publish! I know at least one topic..write about your struggles of your illness.
Thats helpful. That does includr working ouside the USA?
Ten years ago, I started editing marketing content for small to mid size companies and it was going well for a while. I have found that a micro niche was created by the beginning of 2013. These companies and even freelancers started creating their own video content without hiring help as a byproduct that showcases what they do for a living. There are loads of smartphone apps people are using now instead of actual software. I'm not sure how long this trend will last.
Looove these videos!! I'm starting to create similar ones on my channel but it's so good to be introduced to new ways to make money from home. Thankyou for your valuable content, much appreciated x
I wanna add 2 more jobs to make it 14
one is medical biller and second is the medical coder. I have been doing both from home since 2016 and it pays good.
Saddam Butt from where ??
From General doctor offices. But Lemme tell you first this job is not for everybody, its a highly responsible job and yeah you need to know medical terms know how and billing procedures to get fluent. I had taken Biology in High School so understanding medical and health terms was not hard for me. I worked for Billing solution company and they trained me for quite a while. I worked there for more than one year then me and my colleague decided to freelance and now we are doing it. I would recommend joining a billing company or even health insurance as a processor to get a grip for 1 year or so and then try freelancing.
Saddam Butt lol in HIGH SCHOOL
Does it pay well?? I love Medical Billing... I work a year to train to do something I enjoyed...
Tiana Hardy it depends, I am working for an Mri facility so they easily pay me $2400+ per month but general doctors and chiropractors or doctors with just ultrasound machine like thing pay really less as there bill is not as high and we work at 5% of what they get every month
Good job! Thanks for the info. I have web design skills, but the idea of being an author is very attractive to me.
Love the way you're thinking!
I have my own retail business already so Amazon sales stood out to me. Thank you it is a very well done video.
How do you promote your book when you hardly have any friends. And the friends that you do have, are least interested in reading
I love what you just said there in min 5'.00" :make a plan to be able to do it
Same!
this is really helpful for people who want to earn money online 👍
keep on ...
Bravo! I've probably WATCHED all those videos about taking surveys you mention! Not only that, but the creators sometimes just change the order and release them again the following week. I thought all your suggestions were good ones. Looking forward to seeing what's next!
Thumbs up! One of the most inspiring videos I've watched on youtube. I've got at least 6 ideas from it. Thanks a lot.
I have become disabled and had to stop working at the job i was doing . Since then till now i have been looking for online work i only just saw your channel two days ago. i need your help.
try Google
3D Animation. You can earn a LO-O-O-T, but you really need to know your stuff.
Is that what you do?

Can i do it as a part time job since 3d modeling is a part of the syllabus
???
kimonaNo1 tell more
This is a great list! I've been working as a integrated producer for ad agencies, but I recently injured and need to work from home. This video gave me some good ideas.
This was a great video! So refreshing to not hear about time wasting things, and get the nitty gritty of specific jobs! Thanks!
Thanks!🙌🏾
i'm a graphic designer please someone take me i don't have a job
Just found your channel and I'm already hooked! Love the practical advice
Hi Gillian! Two options stood up to me: becoming an author and Amazon seller. What are the risks though? I am quite hesitant, but have been wanting to publish my crochet works and sell the finished products.
Thank you,

what's wrong with dog walking?
Nothing, it just doesn't pay very much :)
Gillian Perkins Really? Dog walking easily pays my rent easily.
Gillian Perkins I charge 1000 bucks a dog.
TheMacocko charging that much you better make my dog shit gold
TheMacocko $1000 per dog per month?
course creator: is there a 'course' for this?
Yes! TONS of them! Hit me up we can create one together:)
Check online courses for a course creator course.
Instructional design I guess
Thank you for this info AND for mentioning surveys, they pay crap and take so much time!!! So many people do say that they are a great way to earn money online and at home, but in my experience they are absolutely not!
Web design actually sounds very appealing....I have a newborn on the way, and never really knew what I wanted to do after highschool all I knew is that I wanted to make a decent living but didn't know where to start...and I knew I didn't want to have to get up and go into somebody's office for the rest of my life, well now I'm 23 with my own baby due in a week or so, so I think I'm going to look into web design. Thank you, Thank you, Thank you💜💜💜
Could you suggest some sites that teach how to do Facebook ads, please? I’ve lost everything including my home in Hurricane Harvey and desperately need a way to get an income going. I also don’t know how you find clients to write ads.
Dan Henry teaches it
Ashley Emma thank you very much!
Gilmour11 i hope you find your way
udemy. $10.99 for the course
There is a cheap class about how to do PPC in udemy of Isaac Rudansky call ultimate guide to adwords. Take the adwords certification and that will help you to understand online ads. Each platform is different but that is an awesome start. A lot of jobs on ppc
Not helpful for me 😩
May I ask why? ♡
Gillian Perkins Because if you dont have any of these skills or experience or a product. You cant start any of these jobs/businesses right away, or even start looking till you paid some money to gain the experience, or developed a product lol... And idk about this person but if theyre anything like me, i dont have a few grand or hundreds of dollars laying around to experiment with... Lol i need money now lol... Just saying... But thanks for sharing this is something to look into for the future.
JonVieSays true , soo much info is free online though , anyone can learn a skill if they really want to . Just look at the beauty industry , all these gals are learning how to apply makeup like a pro w/out ever going to school .
Reservation Dept you make a great point ❤️
Reservation Dept - I wouldn’t classify applying makeup as a skill.
Social Media Manager, Editor and Online Business Manager jobs appealed to me the most and I want to get started researching each job. Thank you so much for this information.
My husband and myself ran and managed our own business for over ten years. I feel we did quite well, and would be interested in learning about this line of work, on line.
I applied for a job as a secret shopper for a major retail store. I was denied a job literally because and I was told this that my personal criteria isn't diverse enough. I'm caucasian, 50 and middle class. Most of my friends are from PR, Mex or Latino. My friend who is Latino, 45, middle class and most of her friends are caucasian or black, she got the job.
Was I discriminated against, age or racially OR BOTH?
Sounds like you might have been... tough to know exactly what "personal criteria" means though.
Thanks again. Definitely needed because I received a dui, last year.
SO HOTT
Indeed
Alrese Holmes . Awwwwwwe. This is terrible. I have an idea we can maybe explore. I got a dui too (long long time ago) but check it out. DUI Attorneys need help answering phones from new offenders who just need initial reassurance "everything is gonna be allll right.". Then offer them to come in at their choice of next Wed or Fri .. would 9 am or 3 pm work best? Attorneys pay upwards of $200 per successful booking. Rinse and repeat. Contact me if you want to discuss or whatever.
First, and MOST IMPORTANTLY, is that your hair and makeup is GORGEOUS!! YAASS!!!
I am a TH-camr myself, but I am also doing some of those 12 work-at-home jobs for small businesses/clients. And this video is really helpful to me to find out other opportunities in this field. Thanks lots, Gillian !! I know not everybody agree with you, but never mind...keep up the good work !!
