647: How to Start an Online Directory as a Side Hustle

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Why should your first online business be a directory? This is one of the most overlooked yet potentially lucrative side hustles out there.

I’ve got a little bit of experience in this space (I actually built a virtual assistant directory years before), so this is something close to me.

But my experience is nothing like John Rush’s from JohnRush.me, who is a master at quickly building and marketing these little side projects.

He has launched 30 directories in just the past year, managed to monetize 10 of them, and even sold one (AllGPTs.co) for a sweet five-figure exit.

(If you want more resources, check out John’s full Directory Guide or his no-code builder at Unicorn Platform.)

Tune in to Episode 647 of the Side Hustle Show to learn:

• Why directories are a great starter side hustle
• How to pick the right niche
• The tools and strategies to build your directory
