In today's economy, lots of us have side gigs that we do either for fun or perhaps for some extra cash. But how do you know if your side hustle is a real business or just a hobby?

Jeff: I have a plan with my content creation, podcasting, blogging and book writing. It should lead to speaking engagements, tea tasting events and sales of tea products.

I haved enrolled in Fizzle's course, Start a Blog that Matters.

I am glad to hear that you are a big tea drinker! ;)

All the Best,

Martin

P.S. Have you checked out my crowdfunding campaign for my forthcoming first book on tea, with illustration by John Cox?

Jon: How about turning your side hustle hobby into a business, over time? That is what I am trying to do with my passion for tea.

I think it's definitely doable, you just need to have a plan. I just fear too many people assume that something they make a little bit of money doing can blossom into more without forethought on how to scale or investing more capital.

I am also a big tea drinker but never considered it as a business idea. What is it that you do, may I ask?
