Why I created this site
The economy is unpredictable, and no one should have to depend entirely on someone else for a paycheck. Owning your own labor — even in a small way — gives you options, confidence, and a safety net when things shift.
Every week, I see people online asking how to make ends meet, only to get flooded by spammy “opportunities” that waste their time and money. This site is meant to cut through that noise. Real ideas, real plans, and real tools — all
designed to help you build something that works for you.
DIYSideHustles.com was created by
Samverka Strategies, a Portland-based business that helps solo entrepreneurs and small business owners turn their ideas into action. Through Samverka, I work one-on-one with people who are ready to move from planning to doing
— offering structure, strategy, and support every step of the way.
If you have any questions or suggestions, please drop me a line
here.
Good luck in your endeavors!
—Ann.
