You might have heard stories of people raking in tons of money from Craigslist. If you want to know how you can have a profitable side hustle on this popular platform, then continue reading this article for ideas!

1. Buy and sell stuff

People sell many kinds of items on Craigslist. Some even give stuff away for free, provided you pick it up. You can find a literal treasure trove if you know where to look.

To make money, you can buy items on the cheap on Craigslist, and then turn around and list the same item for a much higher price! The difference is, of course, your profit.

Another technique you can use is called retail arbitrage where you buy an item on Craigslist, and then sell it on another platform like eBay or social media.

2. Apply for suitable part-time jobs

If you decide to apply for part-time jobs on the platform, make sure you do your due diligence, so you don’t get scammed. If you’re not careful, you can fall victim to numerous scams that are rampant on Craigslist.

Before you get scared, know that there are also plenty of legit jobs on the platform – you just need to weed out the good stuff from the bad.

3. Sell various services

If you have a skill that other people can benefit from, then, by all means, put up a listing on Craigslist advertising your service. You can sell items in many different categories like automotive, beauty, computer, creative, financial, household, labor, legal, lessons, pet, skilled trade, writing, and more.

4. List extra rooms you want to rent out

If you’ve got an extra room (or two) in your house, then you can list it for free on Craigslist. Make your listing as enticing as possible and be sure to thoroughly vet all interested applicants to make sure they’re serious renters!

5. Find leads for your business

If you offer a service and you need clients, then you can head on over to Craigslist and look for people who are looking for your service. For instance, if you’re a designer, you can answer ads from people who are specifically looking for a graphic designer to help them with their logos and graphic design needs.
People are out there hiring others to do what you probably consider to be only a hobby. The difference between them and you is that they’re getting paid!
