S2 - Ep27 - Brett Helling, advocate for the gig economy talks about building a successful side hustle through user testing and marketing
In this episode, we are joined by the side hustler and author of Gigworker, Brett Helling. He specializes in building, growing, and maintaining successful websites. He has worked in the rideshare space since 2014, when he left corporate America behind and started driving for Uber and Lyft in Omaha, Nebraska. Because he loves the freedom and flexibility that come with owning a business, he started Gigworker.com, the website that connects workers to in-depth information about the gig economy and guides users through the vast—and growing—a variety of opportunities it offers. When he’s not overseeing his team of writers and developers, Brett loves to run and spend time with his dog, Baxter.
In his book, he provides the essential primer on the gig economy: how it evolved to where it’s at now, and where it’s headed in the future. He’ll show you that it’s possible to replace your full-time income with multiple gigs or balance 9-to-5 work with a 5-to-9 side gig. You’ll come away with a new zeal for the gig economy, ready to dive into the options at your fingertips and make money doing what you love. He shares some of his favorites tips from his career and in the book on our show.
