I’m a hustler baby

(I just want you to know)

Let’s work smarter, not harder.

Ever think to yourself how nice it would be to generate an income on the side that would pay for that desperately needed vacation, or to cover your car payments for the next year?
I have done it. And I am here to show you how.
Without all of the BS. Without all of the gimmicks.
Just straight up strategy. 

Get Free Gift Cards

This is a hack I have been using for years and it’s not lifechanging, but who doesn’t like a free coffee or free body lotion? 

Learn Digital Marketing

It seems like everywhere you look there is a new “expert” claiming they can make you rich overnight if you follow their three-step process (which they will sell you for the low, low price of $4500).

Nah. I’ve got the Roadmap for you.

Create Passive Income Streams

What if I told you I made $5000 with online side hustles in the last 6 months? Nice, right? 
I want to show you how.

Who the heck am I?

Hi, I’m Katie! I’m a mom of 2 teenagers and the best dog ever. I’ve been ktsurly on the internet ever since the 1990s (Gen X, represent!). The name has stuck over the years, so I’m leaning into it with Side Hustles with Surly.

I’m pretty laid back, but what does make me surly are the many online “gurus” out there selling courses that are ridiculously expensive yet somehow withhold the REAL content. I created Side Hustles with Surly because I was already testing every side hustle out there, so I thought I’d share my experiences with others. Thanks for being here!

Reduce stress and enjoy life by creating a passive income stream that works for you

3 steps to becoming an Amazon influencer

1. Apply for the program using one of your social media accounts
(having a large following helps, but there are workarounds for this)

2. Once approved, create and upload 3 short videos reviewing items you already have around your house

3. Wait for Amazon to review and approve those videos (it can take a week or longer). Once you see this message, you’re in!

If this sounds confusing or you don’t know where to start, I highly recommend the course I took—it had information about how to get approved without having a million followers, and it was packed with demo review videos by people who had gotten approved. You only get 3 chances to have your videos approved, so I wanted to do it right the first time!
