Side Hustle Show 304 Girls Hustle Harder. This is the $5,000 a month part-time Girl Scout blog.

What's up, what's up, Nick? Loper here. Welcome to the Side Hustle Show because the best way to serve yourself is to serve others.

And serving others is exactly what Jody Carlson's been up to with her blog,

Leader Connecting Leaders.com.

It's a site she's been running part-time since 2014

and has slowly built up to five to six thousand dollars a month in revenue. That comes from a combination of

mostly digital product sales, advertising, and affiliate relationships. The

surprising thing to me at least is she's done this in a niche that theoretically doesn't have any money

Her readers and customers are almost all volunteers and they're donating their time to local nonprofit groups, in this case,

Stay tuned to hear how she comes up with product ideas and prices those, how she made her first

sales, and how she's grown her traffic and income, all while working full-time and raising a family.
