Why Side Hustle?> Build Skills Build Security Build Income Build Freedom My Story After college, I did what you’re supposed to do: I got a job. The problem was almost immediately I found myself looking for a way out. It wasn’t that I hated the work or my coworkers, but it just wasn’t what I wanted to do with my life. The thought of spending my next 30 years there was terrifying. So evenings and weekends I turned my attention online. I’d been dabbling with building rudimentary websites, learning online advertising channels, and even running my own small marketing campaigns for other company’s products to test the waters. And that’s what The Side Hustle Path is about; finding a low-risk way make more money. If you’re looking for a get-rich-quick-scheme or the secret to overnight success, you won’t find it here. But what you will find are 10 down-to-earth entrepreneurs who were once sitting in your same position. They felt the same fears and uncertainties, but took action anyway. What are you waiting for?

    If you are on social media, you are in marketing. And that means that we are all relying on our words to carry our marketing messages. We are all writers.Yeah, but who cares about writing anymore? In a time-challenged world dominated by short and snappy, by click-bait headlines and Twitter streams and Instagram feeds and gifs and video and Snapchat and YOLO and LOL and #tbt. . . does the idea of focusing on writing seem pedantic and ordinary?Actually, writing matters more now, not less. Our online words are our currency; they tell our customers who we are.Our writing can make us look smart or it can make us look stupid. It can make us seem fun, or warm, or competent, or trustworthy.

    You use the stability of your day job to provide a financial foundation for building your own business on the side.When Sean McCabe started practicing hand lettering, he never dreamed he’d make over $500,000 from the craft. He always thought it’d be a hobby. But he learned that there are three specific ways to make money from any niche pursuit.Sean codifies and breaks down these three methods of making money in what he calls The Trifecta:• Client Work• Products• TeachingNo matter what you want to do, you can grow a thriving business using these three methods of generating revenue.But where you’ll get stuck is trying to find the time, motivation, and focus to do the work.• How do you get your family or spouse on board when they’re scared?• What if you come home from your day job feeling exhausted and ready to collapse?• What if you have many passions and you’re not sure which to focus on?Overlap will help you find your passion, develop your skills, get out of scarcity, and create the life you want.The results will not come overnight, but this book will help you get unstuck and give you a clear idea of exactly what to do next.Don’t Quit Your Day JobThere’s a notion that if you’re “really serious” you’ll quit your day job and give your passion a chance.That works for some people, but so does the lottery. I don’t think it’s a winning strategy.You want something more sensible—something that doesn’t involve crazy amounts of risk (and the high likelihood you’ll kill your passion for good if things don’t pan out).We all know people who quit their job to pursue their passion only to end up hating what they do.Or worse: they had to go back to the day job and, because they felt like a failure, they never got up the courage to try again.You’re here because you want something more practical: a systematic plan and logical steps for making a living from what you love.Overlap is for you.When you overlap, you don’t immediately quit your day job. You use the day job as a financial foundation to support your pursuit of something else.This does something incredible.Rather than feel immediate financial pressure, you are free to explore, do, and try.This exploratory phase is critical. It prevents burnout and helps you avoid killing your passion, which often happens when you’re desperate for money.Overlap is where you start a business while working a full time job.• This is the book you’ll wish you had years ago.• This is the book that finally gives you clarity.• This is the book you can give to your kids and not worry about their future.This is a sensible, practical, down to earth guide to making a living doing what you love, creating financial freedom for yourself, and getting your family on board.I’ve been working on this book for years.I’ve written the book, re-written it, and revised it based on hundreds of personal conversations I’ve had with people who want something more than the status quo.What I discovered is this:Most Books Are Addressing the Wrong ProblemsI found that the things holding you back aren’t necessarily lack of business knowledge, finance, or anything like that.In my conversations, I learned it’s these things that are holding you back:• Lack of support from your family.• Trouble finding motivation.• Not enough time.• Difficulty focusing.• Unsure of the right thing to pursue.• Feeling overwhelmed with the possibilities.I reverse engineered Overlap to solve every single one of these struggles.If you believe you were meant for something more, if you believe you can make it, if you believe you were destined for greatness…Overlap will help you get there.

    With no funding and a $40 budget, Daymond had to come up with out-of-the box ways to promote his products. Luckily, desperation breeds innovation, and so he hatched an idea for a creative campaign that eventually launched the FUBU brand into a $6 billion dollar global phenomenon.  But it might not have happened if he hadn’t started out broke - with nothing but a heart full of hope and a ferocious drive to succeed by any means possible. Here, the FUBU founder and star of ABC’s Shark Tank shows that, far from being a liability, broke can actually be your greatest competitive advantage as an entrepreneur. Why?  Because starting a business from broke forces you to think more creatively.  It forces you to use your resources more efficiently. It forces you to connect with your customers more authentically, and market your ideas more imaginatively. It forces you to be true to yourself, stay laser focused on your goals, and come up with those innovative solutions required to make a meaningful mark.  Drawing his own experiences as an entrepreneur and branding consultant, peeks behind-the scenes from the set of Shark Tank, and stories of dozens of other entrepreneurs who have hustled their way to wealth, John shows how we can all leverage the power of broke to phenomenal success. You’ll meet: ·         Steve Aoki, the electronic dance music (EDM) deejay who managed to parlay a series of $100 gigs into becoming a global superstar who has redefined the music industry ·         Gigi Butler, a cleaning lady from Nashville who built cupcake empire on the back of a family  recipe, her maxed out credit cards, and a heaping dose of faith ·         11-year old Shark Tank guest Mo Bridges who stitched together a winning clothing line with just his grandma’s sewing machine, a stash of loose fabric, and his unique sartorial flairWhen your back is up against the wall, your bank account is empty, and creativity and passion are the only resources you can afford, success is your only option.  Here you’ll learn how to tap into that Power of Broke to scrape, hustle, and dream your way to the top.From the Hardcover edition.

    But many managers can't read a balance sheet, wouldn't recognize a liquidity ratio, and don't know how to calculate return on investment. Worse, they don't have any idea where the numbers come from or how reliable they really are. In Financial Intelligence, Karen Berman and Joe Knight teach the basics of finance--but with a twist. Financial reporting, they argue, is as much art as science. Because nobody can quantify everything, accountants always rely on estimates, assumptions, and judgment calls. Savvy managers need to know how those sources of possible bias can affect the financials and that sometimes the numbers can be challenged. While providing the foundation for a deep understanding of the financial side of business, the book also arms managers with practical strategies for improving their companies' performance--strategies, such as "managing the balance sheet," that are well understood by financial professionals but rarely shared with their nonfinancial colleagues. Accessible, jargon-free, and filled with entertaining stories of real companies, Financial Intelligence gives nonfinancial managers the financial knowledge and confidence for their everyday work. Karen Berman and Joe Knight are the owners of the Los Angeles-based Business Literacy Institute and have trained tens of thousands of managers at many leading organizations. Co-author John Case has written several popular books on management.
