6 HOBBIES THAT CAN BECOME A BUSINESS


It's often said that happiness is achieved once passion collides with skill. In other words, people thrive when they're doing the things they love. Naturally, getting paid to do those things is what many people consider a dream life. Unfortunately, most people consider such a life just that: an unobtainable dream.That doesn't have to be the case, though. Many hobbies and passions can -- and do -- lead to lucrative careers and fulfilling lives.

1. Exercising

Fitness gurus who are passionate about staying fit have a unique opportunity to teach what they love to do. Whether you excel at weight lifting, yoga, pilates or mountain biking, you can take classes to become an instructor. Also consider getting a job as a coach for schools and clubs.

2. Photography

Everyone can take a picture with a camera, but it's no secret that some are better at making images than others. If you possess impressive photography chops, people will pay you good money for your work. To build your portfolio, offer your services for low prices and then work your way up.

3. Music

For some, music isn't just a hobby -- it's necessary to their happiness here on Earth. If you fall into the "music lover" category, perhaps a career in staffs, notes and key signatures is for you. You can give private voice or music lessons in your home or rent a studio and work from there.

4. Fashion

It may come as a surprise, but those who scrupulously follow the latest trends and coo over magazine covers and strangers' outfits can actually make money off their love of all things fashion-related. For example, fashion gurus can become personal stylists, serving as a client's "voice of reason" when it comes to wardrobe. Fashion lovers often make great blog and book writers, too.

5. Baking

Starting a baking business requires you to go through some licensing (NAFDAC for instance) and perhaps some kitchen renovations to meet government standards, but the payoff is rewarding. Begin by having friends and family test your baked goods and then promote yourself around the neighborhood and city.

6. Blogging

If you're a writer and you enjoy having an audience read your work, consider starting an online blog or two. The topic should be about something you're both passionate and knowledgeable about. Know that money won't flood in right away, since it takes awhile to build up readers, and readers are necessary for ad revenue.
