What if you could get personalized side hustle ideas that actually fit your life instead of scrolling through another generic listicle? That's exactly what we're tackling in this special crossover episode with Allison Baggerly from the Inspired Budget Podcast. After 650+ interviews on the Side Hustle Show, I noticed something interesting: almost nobody finds their winning side hustle idea by Googling "ways to make extra money" and picking number 17 from some random blog post. The ideas that stick are the ones that connect your skills, interests, and available time with real problems people will pay you to solve. So I created a free ChatGPT prompt generator that asks you the right questions and spits out personalized side hustle ideas tailored specifically to you. And Allison volunteered to be our test pilot. Tune in to Episode 712 of the Side Hustle Show to learn: how to use AI to brainstorm side hustle ideas that actually match your skills, schedule, and income goals the three levels of side hustles and how to choose the right one for your income goals how to move beyond generic lists and find ideas people will actually pay for Full Show Notes: How to Unlock New Side Hustle Ideas with AI New to the Show?

Reselling Software: Don’t Start a SaaS — White Label Someone Else’s Instead (Greatest Hits)
12/11/2025 | 43 mins.
Reselling software gives you many of the benefits of a software business, without the upfront development cost. That means you can enjoy recurring revenue, selling one product to multiple customers, and strong profit margins by white labeling a software tool that already exists. These benefits are what attract many people to starting a SaaS, or software as a service, but you may not need to go through the trouble. After all, there may already be a tool that solves the same problem. Could you become a software reseller instead of a software creator? To help me learn more about reselling software (also known as white labeling), I connected with Chris Lollini. Chris is a self-described “recovering engineer” who started a marketing agency as a side hustle 9 years ago. That agency evolved into a multi-6-figure white labeling operation called Reputation Igniter. The business helps other small businesses earn more positive reviews for their work. And while Chris definitely invested the time in growing his network and roster of monthly customers, it now takes him just 5-10 hours a week to run. Tune in to The Side Hustle Show interview to hear: how Chris got the idea to start white labeling SaaS products how he identified his customer’s pain points and provided a SaaS solution the methods he uses to add value and create healthy profit margins Big thanks to my brother Chris for the intro!
