New adventure … a side journey in making some extra cash

Let’s face it. Times are tough and none of us are making the millions we dreamed of when we were in college. (Well, if you are, don’t tell me – or at least share the wealth.) There are rumblings of a “double-dip recession” and slowing economic growth across the land. (Again, if it’s booming where you are, you don’t have to tell me -unless you’ll pay for me and my family to relocate there and give us all jobs.)
So, I decided now’s the perfect time to start a side business. Yep, no better time than the present to start a new business and make a little extra cash.
Ok, so I’m not talking about opening a new store or business and quitting my “real” job, but instead, taking a skill and hopefully turning it into some extra money. After all, Christmas is just around the corner (not to mention Matthew’s birthday is in November), and who couldn’t use a little extra cash?
That said, I’m officially launching my photography business. Biggs3 Photography, or by logo design, biggs3, has already had a bit of success. I’ve actually taken some senior portraits and am close to booking a few other sessions. *Happy*
Hopefully, this business will take off and I’ll be able to earn a little extra money in time for the birthday and Christmas season. After that, hopefully I’ll make enough to actually open a true “studio” and really supplement my income. Then, I will be really happy.
