Life has its rough patches. Whether your car broke down, you’re trying to climb your way out of debt, or you’re simply tired of spending more than you earn each month.

We all have a need for more cash.

Fortunately, there’s no shortage of opportunities to earn more. For some, freelancing is a great way to earn more. Others, starting a blog is. But for today, I’ve put together a unique challenge.

The end goal of this challenge is to earn $1,000 in 30 days.

In the first week, you just have to earn $10 a day.

The next week, just $25.

After that, you have to average $50 a day.

How can you go about earning this money?

Four of my favorite options are below.

But here’s 100+ more ways to earn.

Whatever way you choose, just focus one day at a time.

Good luck!

There are some requirements to becoming a tutor, you need to know:

Eligibility to work in the US or Canada
Bachelor’s degree in any field
1 school year of teaching experience or the equivalent in mentoring, tutoring, or alternative education (this can be previous tutoring, homeschooling, teaching at your church — not necessarily formal classroom education).

eBates
eBates lets you earn money for the shopping you’re already doing.

eBates allows you to share a referral fee for making a purchase through their link. So, you get a few extra percent off of your purchases from places like Amazon, Target, eBay, and Nordstrom.

But they also offer one of the most generous referral programs. Currently they’re offering you $25 for every friend you refer.

A good strategy here is to get your close family and friends to all join in. Anyone you refer gets a free $10 for signing, so it’s an easy sell.

By referring your family and friends, then using the shopping portal yourself, you can earn $100 a month.

Next time you go grocery shopping, download the app iBotta beforehand.

iBotta will pay you to buy groceries. All you have to do is scan your receipt and barcode after you purchase. What’s nice is a lot of the “coupons” inside the app are for any brand items. So, it’s not always necessary to change your favorite brands.

I’ve been using the app for about a year and have found the 30-seconds it takes to redeem the coupons worth the effort. Beyond a $10 welcome bonus, you also earn $5 for each friend you refer. Plus, another $10 bonus after referring two friends.

What’s also nice is you can use a receipt that’s up to a week old. So, if you have an old grocery receipt on hand, you can get started now.

As an example, last month Trim negotiated a $10 credit on my Internet bill due to a power outage. All you do is sign up, connect your account. Then, Trim’s robotic assistant will notify you of ways to save money.

The average person saves $30 per bill, so it’s definitely worth checking out.
