A self-paced checklist to get started — the honest way.
This one is yours. Nothing is sent to us unless you choose to at the end — it’s a checklist you work through at your own pace. You don’t need every box ticked to begin. You need to start where you are, with what you already have.
1. Get clear
I’ve written down three things people already ask me for help with.One of them is your first side gig.
I’ve picked one of them to start with.
I can explain it in one honest sentence.
My one thing: ____________________________________________
2. Shape the offer
I know exactly who it’s for (be specific — ‘everyone’ attracts no one).
I know the problem it solves for them.
I’ve written a positioning sentence.“This helps [person] who [situation] to [outcome] without [obstacle].”
My positioning sentence: ____________________________________________
3. Make something small
I’ve chosen the simplest format — a short guide, a checklist, or a template.
I’ve used an AI tool to help me draft it, then made it sound like me.
I’ve made it look clean and simple (Canva is free).
4. Set up delivery & payment
My product is saved with link-sharing on (Google Drive is free and reliable).
I have a PayFast account — or I know that’s my next step.
I’ve decided on a fair, simple price.
5. Reach the right people
I’ve found one place my people already gather (a Facebook group, a WhatsApp community).
I’ve added value there first — helpful answers, no selling.
When I share, I place it where it’s relevant — I don’t push it on everyone.
6. Protect your time
I’ve blocked two hours in my calendar — specific days and times.
I’ve picked my first action — something under 15 minutes.
My first action, today: ____________________________________________
