Step
Method 1 of 4: Become an Expert Salesperson
Step 1. Sell old electronic or mechanical devices that you no longer use
Cell phones, MP3 players, or camcorders that you no longer use can be sold. The item still has a price! Make sure you've cleared all the songs you had in the MP3 player, and all the contacts in your old phone. Otherwise, the buyer will be confused by strange calls and songs he may not like.
Step 2. Do a resale
Buy a box of candy for IDR 6,000, 00 and sell it at school or outside supermarkets, stalls, etc.) for IDR 12,000, 00. If you can sell twenty candies in a day, you will get IDR 120,000, 00.
Step 3. See if a business near your home is willing to pay you to promote their business or even hire you as an employee
Since this is a salesperson's job, it means you have to go up to people and talk to them asking them to come to the store or buy goods or services. Smile and remember most adults love children. You were born to sell!
Step 4. Have a sale in the yard
If you have an object or toy that you no longer use, sell it! Garbage to one person can be treasure to another. If you live in an apartment it may be difficult. But you can contact your friend and ask for permission to "borrow" his page to sell in his yard for one day.
Step 5. Create your own business
If you can make bookmarks, for example, make a few, and then put up a tent at the edge of your yard, or distribute flyers at school. But there are schools that don't like this kind of thing. Make sure you get permission first. Some business ideas you can consider:
- Making toys for pets. People love their pets, cats, dogs, parakeets and fish. You can design and make toys for their pets, right?
- Make food arrangements or parcels. Candies, fruit and other foods can be beautifully arranged for display before eating. Easy way to make money.
- Take advantage of the holidays. If it's Halloween, why not offer a carved pumpkin? Christmas, why not make a homemade ornament to hang on the Christmas tree? Take advantage of these vacation days.
- Offer scrapbooking to others. Scrapbooking is a lucrative industry around the world for a good reason: people want to put their memories in one place and enjoy them. Offer them.
Method 2 of 4: Earn Money Teaching Your Skills
Step 1. Start a teaching business at a rate of IDR 60,000 per hour
This is an effective way to earn money and your business will do best if you are good at certain school subjects like math and languages. Teach your students several ways to do a problem or think about a lesson. Clients will not re-hire your services if you don't teach well or if you charge a higher rate than your expertise.
Step 2. Earn money playing music
People love to listen to music, especially musical performances. If you can play music and you're not making money playing music, then you're missing out on an opportunity to earn money. Try these simple ideas to make money on your craft:
- Teach children how to play an instrument that you are good at. If you know how to play a musical instrument (guitar, drums, piano, flute, etc.) place an ad for teaching at a rate of IDR 60,000, 00-IDR 120,000, 00 per week.
- If you're having musical entertainment, go to a public area and put down your hat and poster of your performance. It might sound tacky, people might give you money if you look good enough. They may only give you change, but you can earn a lot of money if you keep showing up. Make sure beforehand that the location you choose allows music performances so you don't get into trouble.
Step 3. Do the animation work
There are people who like to have animations for themselves, and if you know how to make animations, a 30 second animation can fetch up to Rp.300,000,00! Animations are easy to learn and a great way to earn money. Start learning how to animate using a simple animation program like Scratch.
Step 4. Create a website

You are rich, when people feel the price is right! Most famous website names are already in use, but if you think one isn't already in use, your website could be famous!
Step 5. Start creating a video series on You Tube to promote your talent
If you get famous, you can sign up for the Partnership program and get paid. (If you're 18, you'll need your parents' email addresses, but don't hesitate to try.) If your video suddenly becomes online famous, you could end up earning a lot of money each month, with the possibility of earning even more with follow-up videos.
- Create video game tutorials. What video games are the most popular today? If you can make or do cool things with video games that are currently popular, you will definitely get a lot of followers. Minecraft, Halo, Call of Duty, Bioshock and others are very popular right now.
- Teach people how to solve popular problems. Do you know a cool way to boil eggs? Do you know a surefire way to ask out a date? Make a video about it and watch your video viewers grow.
Step 6. Sell your art
You can draw nice paintings for people, or maybe make black and white paintings if you're a good artist. Earn extra money selling paintings, landscapes, and self-portraits, why not?
There are many websites like Etsy, eBay, CafePress, Kijiji, or Facebook Yard Sales where you can auction off your art to people from all over the world
Step 7. Teach people how to use electronics
If you are a computer expert; you made a joke about 404 errors; You have a dream about assembling and disassembling various electronic devices. If you are like that, you can consider making money by helping other people. A computer is a shame to waste.
Creating an advertising website for your specialty? Of course, advertise that you're young, but offer a discount and include a professional and useful testimonial about yourself. Who knows - your business explodes
Step 8. Create a show in your neighborhood

Step 2. Check for loose change in the car and under the couch
You never know what you will find! Search everywhere for loose change. Make sure first that your parents have no plans to use the change.
Step 3. Ask your parents to give you more pocket money. If you don't get pocket money, try asking, but don't disturb your parents
To convince your parents that you deserve more pocket money, do your job well, do extra work that you don't need to do but need to be done, and be diligent in helping.
Make a pact with your parents. For example, tell your parents that you will get an "A" or "B" for all subjects if you get an extra allowance of IDR 240,000.00 per month.

Step 5. Cleaning the house
Cleaning the house can make you money in a few hours, especially if you do it well. Make sure your windows, awnings and gutters are clean.

Get the proper cleaning tools and materials (cleaning fluid, rags, gloves, etc.) ready and get to work
Method 4 of 4: Making Money Selling Services
Step 1. Depending on your age, try babysitting
You may only be able to babysit or look after babies and young children when you are a teenager or in your twenties, but babysitting is a quick and easy way to make a lot of money.

Step 2. Try taking care of the pet
Offer someone to pay you to care for or look after their pet. Find a person who is going on vacation or is simply away all day and offer your services to look after the pet for one day or while that person is on vacation.
You can also make money taking dog walks, especially if you can bring several dogs in one day. You can start your business by putting up posters around your place of residence that include rates and at any time you can carry out dog walking services. You can set a price of around IDR 60,000,00 for one way; You can start increasing the rate if you have done it often and start to have experience.

Step 3. Contact a local newsagent and offer a newspaper delivery service
The job of delivering newspapers isn't a luxury, but the pay can be decent. The advantage is that the work is easy. The downside is that you (usually) have to get up very early to deliver the newspaper.
Step 4. Trim the grass
Borrow a lawn mower from your parents and start offering lawn mowing services to your neighbors. Not many people like to mow their own lawn, so you can usually charge a good rate for this service.
- Try setting a plan with your neighbors: Tell them you'll be mowing their lawn every weekend for a month. Tell them you will give them a discount if they hire their lawn mower services for four weeks in a row.
- Combine the direction of mowing the grass diagonally as well as straight. This will look cool and working diagonally is just as easy as going straight. Of course, ask your neighbors first if they want the lawn trimmed diagonally.
- Take a photo of the lawn you have mowed the grass and show it to other neighbors. If they were previously worried about hiring you, they may become calmer after seeing photos of your work.
Step 5. Do another page job
Learn how to trim trees, rake leaves, plant flowers, or sweep the side of the road. The more you can do on the page, the more people will want to hire your services. It means more money. It means getting rich faster.
Step 6. Rent an atomizer over the weekend
Renting it will cost you around IDR 600,000,00. Make an appointment in advance to do the cleaning of as many entrances as possible and charge around IDR 600,000 per entrance and you will be rich after the weekend.
Warning: sprayers can damage buildings, contaminate cars and hurt people's eyes and others, so if you decide to do this job, be careful using the sprayer and don't play with it. Ask your parents to show you how to use the tool before you practice it yourself
