1.Private tutor.

If you have specific skills, abilities, talents or abilities in a certain area, you can share them with other people for a fee. One lesson with a tutor costs the student about 20 €.

2. A dog walker or “dog sitter

Although this profession is not yet popular in Latvia, it is gradually becoming more and more popular. Why? Everything is simple: when buying an animal in a house or apartment, people undertake to take it for a walk at least 3 times a day. But how to do it if work takes all your free time from morning to evening? In order for your pet not to stay in the apartment alone all day and to be able to hang out a bit, your dog will be taken for a walk by a "dog sitter" for a separate fee. In addition, such a specialist must be more or less oriented towards the care of dogs and must clearly assess the condition of the animal.

3. Professional cleane.

If cleanliness is very important to you, and you manage to tidy up your house in a few minutes, why not offer your dexterity and skill in tidying up your house to other people who really need a clean house? Because some people living in Latvia are so busy that they don't even know where to put things in their house. For fast, accurate and high-quality work, that is, prompt cleaning of your house or apartment, you can earn good money

4.Fashion stylist.

Not a novelty, but if you have a great sense of taste, you can add to the existing ranks of fashion stylists. Many people in Latvia cannot afford to pay 100 € per hour just to have someone teach them to dress stylishly and look presentable. An available stylist will always be in demand, and you can create your own personal block to help you earn extra money.

5.Interpreter.

Many companies keep in touch with a foreign partner, so from time to time companies turn to translation agencies, but rarely manage to get an interpreter quickly. Therefore, companies often hire a personal interpreter who will be able to work at any time convenient for the company.

6. Photographer.

It's hard to believe, but even in the 21st century, when every inhabitant of Latvia has a personal smartphone with a camera, people are so lazy that they are ready to buy foreign photos. That is why unique databases of various photographers were created, and such shots are gladly bought for money by the company for advertising, presentation purposes, etc. That's how, even with a mid-range camera, you can make money by taking several interesting photos a day.

7.The boy to be deported.

Many companies are faced with having to send documents within the same city during the day. Courier services are not suitable in this case, as it will be too expensive, but the boy's offer is completely acceptable. You can choose a convenient movement radius, for example, 1 km from the place of residence, and within this area to transfer or deliver objects according to the company's order.

8.Writer - freelancer.

Almost every company has its own website, which needs constant updating, that is, writing various texts. If you have the talent of a writer, this will be your business option.

9.Recording master.

This is work in different areas: sound and video. You can start with small interviews, then continue with big offers and start making good money. All you need to be able to offer this service - it's the ability to write scripts, a little free time and a computer. If you have all of the above, try this option. In this area of   services, it is rare for people to be disappointed in their income.

10. Car decoration.

Creating unique car decorations is in any case more profitable than sitting in a regular job and receiving a salary. You can place offers in this area on practically any online sales site, but you can prepare the goods yourself from whatever you want: from any materials that have happened to you. The most important thing in this work: to create something completely new, unprecedented. But the main thing is to make car decorations look expensive

11.Cosmetics distributor.

  • Despite the fact that the supply of cosmetics companies is even more than the demand for these products, such a profit option can also be successful. Provided you follow some important recommendations:
  •  you will not sit on the spot, but will offer cosmetics when visiting customers at home and at work;
  • you will use only quality products in your offer;
  • you need to choose the right audience for your customers, as well as the ideal way to get customers to reach you.

 12. Make-up artist.

If you learn the art of applying make-up, you will be able to safely use this type of money making at home. As soon as you complete the training, you will need to buy the latest products in the world of cosmetics, and then introduce yourself to the relevant audience. When buying cosmetics for work, do not forget that it is important to choose quality, not quantity. Therefore, when calculating the existing amount of money for start-up, you need to know exactly what exactly you will buy. Make-up artist services cost an average of 35 €. If you need a hands-on workout, you can use video tutorials or friends' faces as an option.
