More than 150,000 women have completed Tiffany "The Budgetnetista" Aliche's Live Richer Challenge. The roughly 30-day challenge participants step-by-step instructions on how to get their financial lives in order, get out of debt, and start saving money.
Collectively, Tiffany's tribe has saved $17 million and paid off $1.5 in debt!
I first heard Tiffany tell the story of how she started the challenge and how that's turned into a thriving business at FinCon last year, and am excited to share it with you this week.
This year, The Budgetnetista expects to bring in more than $500,000 from speaking, book sales, sponsors and affiliate relationships, and a new private membership academy.
I think her model can be replicated across a number of different niches and industries so you can apply these same strategies and tactics in your business.
Tune in to hear how the former preschool teacher came up with the idea for the challenge, the innovative way she grew her tribe, and how giving it all away for free turned into a very profitable venture.

Chloe Winstanley began making and selling polymer clay earrings as a hobby.
It was a decent side hustle, but the big unlock came when she started teaching other people how to make the jewelry.
"I just realized that I could make way more money from hosting people for workshops than I could just by selling the earrings," she explained.
Her business taps into the "experience economy," helping people get out from behind their screens and out in real life with friends.
In just a couple years, Chloe sold more than $100k worth of tickets to her in-person workshops.
Here's how she did it.

Want to scale back on your day job?
Want to travel more, and spend more time with your family?
That’s exactly what Stacy Gallego has been able to do thanks to her part-time flipping business.
What’s cool is that this income stream was actually inspired by a former side hustle show guest, Rob “the flea market flipper” Stephenson, who we last heard from in episode 298.
Stacy is one of Rob’s star students, and I’ve loved watching her share some of her sales results for quite a while.
In just two years, Stacy has gone from flipping her first item to hitting $10,000 in sales in a month.
The ability to find profit in your hometown is one I think is really valuable in recession-proofing your own income. If that appeals to you, I encourage to you check out Rob and his wife Melissa’s free training to learn more.

This episode is all about making use of the Piggyback Principle — why it's easier to fill demand than to create it from scratch.
Just like how kids would rather get a piggyback ride than walk because it's easier.
The same is true in business — this strategy allows you to ride the wave of success software products are experiencing to catch that rising tide and get better, faster results with less work.
To help illustrate this, I connected with Kristi DaSilva from DaSilvaLife.com.
DaSilva Life helps small businesses build success by setting up and integrating two popular software tools, HoneyBook and ClickUp, into their workflow and operations.
This earns her thousands of dollars per project along the way.

how to guide your audience with clear calls to action in every piece of content

One question I get all the time is, "What are the most profitable side hustles?"
Well, there are a couple ways to look at profitability. First, there's profit margin — how much of every dollar actually flows to your bottom line after expenses.
Then there's raw profit – like Walmart making $10-15 billion a year, but on $500-600 billion in sales. Low margins, but HUGE volume.
But in this post, we're gonna focus mostly on higher-margin, lean operation side hustles.
Let's dive in!
