If you're any kind of believer in side projects, side hustles, or side gigs — whatever you choose to call them — let my experience be a lesson to you. This episode kicks off a 7-episode personal story of excitement and embarrassment due to a major crossroads with my own side hustle. --- This episode is brought to you by https://www.himalaya.com/self-improvement-podcasts/personal-revolution-with-allison-task-1573018 (Personal Revolution Podcast) with Allison Task (listen on Himalaya) and https://solidgigs.com (SolidGigs.com). --- I've always run side projects. Most are purely creative endeavors to help others or to learn new skills. But twice I've had income in mind. http://nextrestaurants.com (NextRestaurants) launched in 2014 and became Big Side Project #1 for me. Big out of necessity as it quickly moved from side project to full-time project. I sold that website 3 years later. It was a heroic moment and that project still lives on today. Big Side Project #2 emerged after a year of podcasting and feeling frustrated about the planning process. I won't reveal the name until the third episode in this 7-episode story. But this little side hustle hit a crossroads recently and I'm going to transparently tell the whole story...

Remember this podcast, featuring Preston Lee, Ryan Robinson, and Ian Paget? I'm Brandon Hull, host of Freelance to Founder, and I'm launching it in August. I've had a lot of success with my own side projects over the years, from building content sites to web design to, yes, even podcasts. I'm really excited about several new things I have planned for the show: including 'sidegig' ideas, growth tactics, partnership strategies, tools, and most of all, conversations. We'll feature regular correspondents checking in on the status of their side projects — their wins, their setbacks, and their fun stories.

On today’s episode, we ask a really tough question: when is the right moment to take your side-hustle full-time? While not everyone with a side-hustle aspires to quit their day job, plenty of people can’t wait until that perfect moment to give their 2-week notice and start working for themselves. The only problem: identifying that perfect moment. Today’s conversation with the guys should help—we explore a few important considerations you should think through before up-and-quitting. Plus a few signs you’ve been waiting too long to start working for yourself. It’s one of our most interesting conversations yet and we're sure you’re going to love it.

Building a successful side-business is no easy task. And it can be even more difficult when you feel like you’re all alone in your journey toward entrepreneurship. That’s why on today’s episode the three of us brainstorm a list of 12 entrepreneurs who have inspired, motivated, and helped us as we’ve built our own successful side-businesses and turned them into full-time gigs. The list includes small business builders, massive entrepreneurial visionaries and everyone in-between. Some you’ll know, and some you’ll wish you had heard of a long time ago. But regardless of where you’re at in your side-hustle journey, this list is a great starting point for building a list of people (and their books, videos, podcasts, and blogs) who can inspire, guide, and motivate you on your side-hustle journey.
