Living in the 21st century has become arguably more expensive than ever before in time. So drastically has the cost of living increased that people are deciding to have fewer children, to a greater extent than what had previously been the case in the past couple of decades.

If you are a frequent visitor of this blog, Saving Money and Budgeting may be topics you may have already read about. For those who have already mastered this, you may already be looking into Paying Off Your Debt. These are all crucial elements that you need to bed down when you hope to achieve Financial Freedom within a time that is on any level remarkable.

Thankfully, the 21st century has not only brought us its woes, but also some pretty remarkable solutions to helping you make more money. Those who read this blog often will know that I am all for Saving, Budgeting, and Minimalism, but only to the end that it will allow you to focus your energy and finances on achieving Financial Freedom by creating multiple streams of income, more so, true Passive Income.

Yes, Live Frugally, But Also Learn to Make More Money

When I don’t have enough money, my knee-jerk reaction without a doubt is to think of how I can Make More Money. Saving and creating a tighter budget, to be honest, are an afterthought. Nothing has been quite as liberating for my mind, and thus my finances.

It is now super easy for you to Make Yourself Extra Money. Online freelance jobs have become an easy side hustle for people looking to convert any skills or free time they may have into an additional source of income.

I have decided to compile a short list of companies that you can work with to start or add to your portfolio of side hustles. I have arranged them according to type, so if you have a preference, you can head on over to that section that you like most. I have also arranged them in alphabetical order for ease of browsing.

Voiceovers

is a site that offers freelance opportunities to translator and voice talent. Their clients are mainly studios and producers. This site’s major advantage is its global reach, from South African specific Afrikaans, to Jamaican specific English.

is a site that allows its clients to get ready-to-use voiceovers, written content, translations, and dubbing. They aim to match the best-suited professionals from their talent pool to their client’s projects and screen the work carefully before delivery

, much unlike other sites, puts the freelancer in control. You can basically showcase to potential clients what it is that you are willing and able to do, and how much you are looking to get paid for it.

is also an option to look into if you want to become a voice-over artist. Their target market is advertisers and producers. You need a microphone and editing software to register. You will also have to upload a demo.

Voice 123

Voice 123 is a site that links companies with voice talent. They pride themselves on not being agents and thus connecting their clients directly with talents. They make their money through the annual subscriptions that their users pay to use their platform.

Voices.com

Voices.com is a specialist site for voice actors. Full-time and freelance gigs are available. This site uses technology to link you to jobs that clients are looking to source voice acting talent for.

My Final Thoughts

While all of these websites offer you the opportunity to make extra money, you need to remember that each of these websites are businesses themselves, more specifically, brokers. Their first obligation is to their clients, the companies on whose behalf they are sourcing freelance work. Thus this is who they will focus on creating better value for.

This may be at the expense of you, a contractor. The more contractors they have, the more this becomes the case, because if you won’t be willing to do it, somebody perhaps a little more desperate than you will.

Increasing your streams of income is a fantastic idea and a much better way to take control of your finances than merely Saving Money and Budgeting, then hoping for the best. It puts you in a position where your desire to be in a better financial position does not disempower you, but instead empowers you. Freelancing, however, creates a unique problem. You still have to:

• depend on being accepted by each of these companies,
• wait for work to be available, and
• be paid a rate that will be determined by the competitiveness that the broker wants to offer the client which may not be commensurate with the time you spend, your level of skill and your standard of delivery

My Favorite Way to Make Money Online

• Meritocracy; If you work hard you can get paid accordingly
• If you are good at what you do you can get paid very well
• You work online

• You literally turn your passion into your career

I do both, running my blog and freelancing, through a good number of these sites, although you can probably tell by now that my primary focus is my blog.

If freelancing is more your thing, keep doing it, but just take control of your finances by empowering yourself to make more money, even if it’s only through these side hustles. This state of mind is the single most important facet you need to develop to win with your finances.

All of the best!
