A YOUTUBER has revealed a side hustle that could make you $100 an hour without having to leave the house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In a recently posted Youtube\u00a0video<\/a>, Diamond Chanel went through website ACX, which solicits audiobook recordings for thousands of\u00a0e- books<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Once you create an account, you will see thousands of ebook<\/a> publishers requesting voice actors to narrate their book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can filter books by length and genre until you find a project that seems to suit your skills and interests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Diamond Chanel, for instance, goes for books requesting a narrator with a young adult voice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n You can also limit your search by accent, language and host of other filters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Diamond Chanel also recommended researching up on the project before applying.<\/p>\n\n\n\n She then walked through the steps of submitting an audition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If selected by the book’s rights holder, you can start recording.<\/p>\n\n\n\n ACX voice recording projects pay per finished hour (PFH.)<\/p>\n\n\n\n This means a book that takes you an estimated hour to read will pay you for the 60 minutes of recorded time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n So, a longer book requiring more narration will mean a bigger payday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n “You get paid from the time you press start to your recording to the time you press stop,” explained Diamond Chanel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Crucially, any time spent researching the book or otherwise preparing for your role is unpaid.<\/p>\n\n\n\n While pay for each project varies, a long book paying $100 or more per finished hour could net you upwards of $1,000 per project, Diamond Chanel claimed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n While starting a side hustle can be easy, its best not to overlook the tax implications of a new stream<\/a> of income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Any side job that nets you over $400 in annual income requires that you file a 1099 form reporting your income.<\/p>\n\n\n\n And jobs that pay you through online processors like\u00a0PayPal<\/a>\u00a0or\u00a0Venmo<\/a>\u00a0require a 1099-K form specifically.<\/p>\n\n\n\n If you prefer arts and crafts, check out a $39,000 per month side hustle<\/a> making necklaces out of old buttons.<\/p>\n\n\n\nHow it works<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
