1. Investment property

If you have a large chunk of money and want to make a smart investment that will yield you a sizable profit in the future, consider buying property and using it to make money with little to no involvement. It can be commercial or residential property, and you may need someone to manage your investment property for you if you don’t want to take a hands-on approach to your business.

2. Blogging

Blogging on Instagram, YouTube, or other platforms is not just a way to showcase your talents to the world – it’s also a way to make money off your audience. Bloggers primarily make money through advertisements, and if you are doing everything right, the cost of your ads will grow consistently even when you’re sleeping, generating a bigger income for you.

3. Cashback

Cashback is one of the easiest ways to make money that does not require you to have any business knowledge – all you need to do is shop online like you normally do, using special apps, partner links, or affiliated websites. A small percentage of the cost of your purchase will be eventually returned to your bank card, and the more you buy, the more money you get in return.

4. Dropshipping sales

Sales are traditionally one of the most profitable ways to make money, but normally this business requires a lot of investments for the inventory and other expenses. Dropshipping, on the other hand, does not require you to physically own any products, and with the right automation tools, your dropshipping business can work at all times without any involvement from you.

5. Online courses

If you consider yourself to be an expert in any field and are looking for a way to make money through your knowledge, the most obvious choice for you is selling online courses. Unlike webinars, which require your presence at an arranged time, online courses can be bought and completed by the customers with little to no participation from you.

6. Stock photography

There are thousands of online publication, web designers, graphic artists, and other individuals who need constant access to high-quality, unique photos. This is where you can come in handy while also making a nice income. Take photos with your camera, post them on stock photo websites, and make a commission every time someone purchases your photo from the site or downloads your images using a paid subscription.

7. Affiliate marketing

In short, being an affiliate marketer means posting affiliate links to partner shops and then making a commission every time someone makes a purchase after following your link. You can post the links on your social media profiles, personal websites, blogs, or a specially created network of sites dedicated to reviewing the products sold by your partners. Once everything is set, your audience will follow the links and make purchases without any participation from you.
