All you need is a phone and a laptop from wherever you are. Olivia explained that the gig was for an “appointment setter” or a digital <a href="https://www.the-sun.com/topic/deals-and-sales/" rel="nofollow"> sales </a> assistant. <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate> The appointment setter is crucial in connecting <a href="https://www.the-sun.com/topic/small-business/" rel="nofollow"> business </a> owners or <a href="https://www.the-sun.com/topic/bloggers-and-influencers/" rel="nofollow"> influencers </a> with clients to sell products to consumers. “There’s a ton of business owners or influencers who sell their digital products for thousands of dollars,” Olivia noted. “These business owners are always getting a ton of people inquiring about and who are interested in the product.” The TikToker continued that the appointment setter’s <a href="https://www.the-sun.com/topic/jobs/" rel="nofollow"> job </a> is to reach out to those clients inquiring about the business and set up a call between them and the business’s sales team. From there, the closer on the sales team ideally makes a deal with the client, and the appointment setter gets <a href="https://www.the-sun.com/topic/direct-payment/" rel="nofollow"> paid </a> for making the connection. <h2 class="wp-block-heading"> PROFIT POTENTIAL </h2><nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate> Olivia gave an example of the sales team trying to get the client to purchase a $5,000 course.  Given that appointment setters typically earn a five percent commission for their efforts, you’d walk away with $250. The TikToker emphasized that if you scaled that, setting up only one appointment per day for 30 days, you’d make well over $5,000 per month. Considering a month is either 30 or 31 days, if you set an appointment for a product or service worth $5,000 each time and earned the 5% commission, it would be over $7,500 commission. Still, that’s unlikely as there are variables to consider, including if the closer is successful each time and the worth of the service. <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate><h3 class="article-boxout__headline"> Side hustles and tax implications </h3><img src="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?type=thumbnail_580x000&amp;url=3OEXKB_0wAmhFGr00" alt="https://img.particlenews.com/image.php?url=3OEXKB_0wAmhFGr00" width="620" height="413" > Extra income you make from side hustles may need to be reported to the IRS. If you receive more than $600 in gross payouts <a href="https://businesshelpinghand.com/advice/side-hustles-us-tax/" rel="nofollow"> from a selling platform </a> like eBay, the site will issue you a Form 1099-K to use in your <a href="https://www.the-sun.com/topic/tax/" rel="nofollow"> tax </a> return. Individuals should calculate their adjusted gross income, taxable earnings, and deductions for the year. <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate> Once they have that, they can use the <a href="https://www.irs.gov/forms-pubs/about-form-1040-es" rel="noreferrer noopener nofollow" target="_blank"> 1040-ES </a> form to calculate estimated taxes. Getting started with the appointment setter gig is arguably the most difficult aspect. Some companies or influencers might want to see that you have a business or sales background. Although it’s not required, if you do enough research and show them a developed script as to what you’d say to highlight the product or service, practice, and market yourself effectively, you’ll be able to connect consistently. You offer your connection services and charge a fee. <h2 class="wp-block-heading"> MONEY MOVES </h2> If the appointment setter gig sounds too complicated, there are still several other ways to make some serious <a href="https://www.the-sun.com/topic/money-us/" rel="nofollow"> money </a> each month. <nbtemplate data-id="AdPlaceholder" data-content="JTdCJTdE"></nbtemplate> A simple “signature” side hustle could make you <a href="https://www.the-sun.com/money/12687097/notary-side-hustle-income-work-advice/" rel="nofollow"> $900 daily </a> without doing any real work as a mobile notary. Sharing your opinion through marketing studies could also make you “$60 richer” in <a href="https://www.the-sun.com/money/12620359/fun-opinion-sharing-side-hustle-richer-minutes/" rel="nofollow"> just 20 minutes </a> . It’s even possible to make around <a href="https://www.the-sun.com/money/12627038/side-hustle-tiktok-rev-social-media-typing/" rel="nofollow"> $700 a day </a> transcribing audio through a little-known gig.
