How can I earn extra income?

These days, there are many ways to earn money to make ends meet: taking part in surveys on platforms, testing products, cashback, etc. However, if you want to earn more than a few euros a month, working from home is still the best idea. How do you find a job that allows you to earn extra money from home? What skills do you need to do the job? Elora, a home-based ready-to-wear clothing retailer, tells you all about it.

HOME SHOPPING: AN EFFECTIVE WAY TO SUPPLEMENT YOUR INCOME

With sales expected to top €5 billion by 2021, home shopping is proving as popular as ever with the general public. It is particularly appealing for its practicality (no need to order online or visit a shop), but also for its user-friendliness. Customers appreciate being able to test products directly in their own homes to get a feel for them, and to talk to an advisor.

Becoming a freelance home seller (VDI) is an easy way to supplement your income. As a self-employed entrepreneur, you can offer your services to a home sales company to develop your business. Build up your network of local customers to save on car journeys. Organise your schedule according to the number of hours you want to allocate to these assignments.

HOW DO I LEARN ABOUT THE RETAIL TRADE?
