That's either a very broad or very narrow capability. Really need a little more insight as to exactly what you're doing with the data.

But some initial thoughts would be anything involving data processing / analytics. Share trading, maybe. Or offering Math tuition.

[geek84]

I used to be a maths tutor but lost most of my students due to changes in exam dates etc.

I was also thinking of trading on the stock market and/or crypto, but it seems you can lose money quite easly !

You mention side hustle, are you generating any revenue from it already or is just a hobby?

[geek84]

Yes I am a maths tutor which brings in a small amount of income.

Good Morning Folks
I have recently developed a liking to dealing with numbers/figures and general arithmetic (multiplying, dividing, percentages, ratios etc).
Is there any way I can develop this 'hobby' into a second income?
Thank You

Train in deciphering web traffic data via google analytics and other software. It’s hugely in demand.

General arithmetic won't make him a trading wizz but as you say learning stats could be a useful addition (no pun intended).

How long does it take to train up?

Would it not be worth trying to develop the tutoring? Online classes? Video tutorials that people can watch on demand, producing resources for people etc?

It’s not linear or finite you’ll learn constantly. You’re analysing traffic at times / days / events. Measuring the performance of marketing promotions so they can be further refined and more cost effective etc.

I'm not sure it is hugely in demand and GA is pretty simple to understand. Most companies only want top line figs anyway and get this from their PPC providers. There's a ton of 'experts' out there too.

I agree it’s usually like that but last year or so I’ve come across larger companies that have had outside “auditing” of paid search results. I think it could be a thing as trust gets strained at times.

Good thread. While you’re all got your thinking caps on, I enjoy high carb foods, beer and swimming in warm seas. Please monetise this for me.

Hmmm that's interesting. Bit niche I guess and I can imagine there's a lot of 'This not very good, we could do it better.'

I believe it's been determined that the OP's real name is a Mr W. Mitty.

Though I quite enjoy his occasional musings.

If he could get a bear outfit too that would be good. I went on a not-inexpensive bear-spotting trip in Canada, and after being driven around the mountainsides of Whistler all evening, saw precisely fk all bears.
