In the evening at 5pm, it may mean happy hour of leaving work, but it also means turning off the computer in the office and starting a business of your own.
We presented 10 ideas to undertake.
1.- Sell food
A great way to succeed with a business or product is to meet a need, and everyone needs (and likes) to eat.
If you like to cook and you have access to a kitchen, which is halfway, and you can buy non-perishable products, sweets, dry meat, bakery products, take advantage.
You must find a food that you are passionate about, or a recipe that you really like and run with it.

Make an e-book
It can be very profitable to write your skills and knowledge in an electronic book for people looking to learn a skill or for those who want to learn from a career.
If you know what kind of audience you want to reach, I assure you that you have a value proposition.
If you are an expert on a specific topic, there is likely to be an audience of people willing to pay to learn what you know.
If your experience does not lend itself to the form of electronic books, you can also create and share online courses.
Either way, once the digital content is created, it can continue to be sold again and again. And the best: there is no inventory threshold or manufacturing cost.

Record podcast
Podcasting is another great way to use a couple of hours to build a regular audience around an industry-specific topic.
Create your audience and later find sponsors who are willing to pay because you advertise products or small ads.
-
Manage social network accounts
There is a good chance that you spend too much time on social networks. So, if you’re going to be there at night anyway, why do not you get paid?
A lot of companies, especially new companies in retail, want to build a strong social presence, and they need people to help them make this happen.
The best part is that you can use platforms like Hootsuite to manage multiple accounts and schedule messages. You can work at night, but you can also generate messages and content throughout the day.
In 2013, Facebook announced during the Dreamforce conference that it had 25 million pages of small businesses active on its site. There is a good chance that some of them need your skills.
-
Create a blog
Blogging is a fantastic method for attracting an income. Thousands of bloggers create content every day on topics as diverse as travel, cooking, parenting, art, anime, lifestyle and more.
Through a combination of marketing for subscribers, affiliate marketing, advertising revenue and sponsorship, these bloggers are growing their daily income.
-
Learn graphic design
Having bases or studies in graphic design will be quite useful in this case. But, having said that, it is not hard to learn the basics of graphic design on your own.
With the most accessible Adobe software and websites like Canva and Visme, you just need a little bit of determination, creativity and a passion for design to begin with.
-
Give music lessons
If you have good handling of an instrument, you can get extra income with multiple teaching or particular classes such as strings or wind instruments.
Start giving lessons to people to grow your business and get a name in the community.
As you earn the trust of the people around you can go from having one or two students to a group. Keep in mind that public schools are constantly reducing their commitment to art and music classes. This gives you the opportunity to work with students and grow your business.
-
Develop applications
It might seem that there is an application for everything, but then someone comes and revolutionizes the way of doing something new. Application development is a new and growing industry, and there is always a need to be filled.
Learning the code might take a little time, but once you start developing, you can comfortably set your own hours to launch your application. Coding is also a great gateway to building a bigger business when the time is right.
-
Offer services for pets
There are a lot of opportunities available at work with pets, so you should be able to find something that suits you.
You want to start a preparation visit in the evenings and on weekends, or just offer pet care. You can establish a small highly rewarding business.
-
Make repairs
Your work hours may be limited, but unlike what happens with day service and repairers, who do not have a huge fee for “free hours.” “Free hours,” clients offer the perfect opportunity to save in the day when there is a broken device.
