January is a time for new beginnings, as the holidays are over and a new year is at hand. Whether you're beginning to undertake your New Year's resolution or simply continuing life more or less the same way, who couldn't use a little more cash in hand?
Here are a few ways you can get it.
Gold Buyers
Sometimes people have old valuables that they don't really use. They could be worth a lot of money, and if you're not doing anything else with them, what's the harm in selling it?
Get cash for gold jewellery, or even old coins you have lying around, by visiting a reliable gold buyer. You'll know you're in a reputable business if the buyer is transparent about market rates, and has been serving their community for decades.
In addition to gold and jewellery, many gold buyers are also looking for other precious stones, high-end watches, and even designer purses. Make the valuables just sitting there collecting dust work for you, by visiting a gold buyer.
Test Websites or Apps
You don't need to be an engineer or even remotely tech savvy to make money from the digital economy. There are web developers out there who need feedback before releasing their websites and apps, and you can get paid to give it.
This type of work has the advantage of being able to do it from anywhere, on your own time. You can decide when you work, and when you'd like to stop working.
Make Deliveries
Another way to make side cash from the digital economy is decidedly offline - ride-share companies have food delivery services that offer extremely flexible work. If you suddenly need money you can hit the road and work, and stop working the moment you no longer need cash.
If you're a good driver with your own vehicle, you can make deliveries or even drive passengers yourself. While it's winter out and January is cold, if you feel like getting some exercise on a sunny day when there's no snow or ice on the road, you can courier the food via bicycle.
Sell Old Belongings Online
It's important to deal with an expert who gives you good rates when selling valuables, but there's always a customer for whatever you own to be found somewhere online. There are a variety of websites where ordinary people buy and sell goods.
Just make sure you accurately represent the condition and nature of what you're selling, while also taking care to showcase it in the best light possible. Polish up what you're selling before posting your ad, and take flattering pictures of it from different angles, so people can see exactly what it is.
This will help you make a sale, and may even increase its price.
The sudden need for a cash injection is common in all seasons, especially after holiday shopping or embarking on New Year's goals or resolutions. Remember the tips outlined above if you need cash, and start 2020 off with a bang.
