Unemployment is common in modern society, and many people struggle throughout their lives to find a stable job. However, as society continues to develop and change, there are fewer and fewer job opportunities in traditional occupations, and it is becoming more and more difficult to find an ideal job. Despite the difficulties we face, we should not give up easily, because there is always a career that suits us waiting. Today, I would like to introduce three careers that unemployed people can try. As long as you work hard, you can successfully counterattack.
The first type, online entrepreneurial platform
With the rapid development of the Internet, more and more people are seeking online part-time job opportunities. These platforms provide individuals with the opportunity to improve their professional skills and increase their income in their spare time, the most popular of which is the Qimengshu platform.
Online part-time platforms offer many advantages, perhaps the biggest of which is that working hours are extremely flexible. On these platforms, you can work at your own pace, regardless of time and location.
In addition, these platforms offer a variety of part-time positions, including short-term assignments and long-term projects. Everyone can find a position that suits them on these platforms and improve their professional skills and personal abilities.
What’s more, these platforms provide people with an additional source of income. By investing time and effort, you can get rewards accordingly. If you are passionate about online entrepreneurship, you can also participate in long-term projects and earn stable income.
In general, online part-time job platforms have many advantages, which can not only bring extra income, but also improve their own development space. If you also want to use your free time to increase your income and continuously improve your abilities and development, it is recommended to try an online part-time platform.
Second type, shoe recycling
With the rapid development of the economy, people's living standards have also been greatly improved. However, used shoes are everywhere in our daily lives. Many people throw away these old shoes as garbage. In fact, these old shoes do have high reuse value, but they are classified differently and the recycling prices are also different. Especially for some high-quality brand shoes, their recycling value is higher. Even some damaged slippers can cost several thousand yuan per ton. Therefore, recycling shoes can be a very profitable project.
From an economic perspective, the recycling price of used shoes per ton is approximately 600-1,000 yuan. And if they are resold directly to the upstream market, the price can reach 1.5-3 yuan per catty, and 3,000-6,000 yuan per ton. Of course, the recycling price may vary in each place, and different types of shoes, such as color and material, will also affect the price.
Take slippers as an example. For many people, they replace a batch of slippers every once in a while. Some are because the style is out of date, while others are because the dirt on the shoes is difficult to remove. In fact, the quality of these slippers is very good. With simple treatment and refurbishment, each pair of shoes can be sold for a few dollars, making it a very profitable venture. In addition, many slippers are made of PVC, so even used slippers, single slippers, folded-soled slippers or damaged slippers can be crushed into plastic pellets for sale. In the market, these pellets can be sold for 2,500-3,000 yuan per ton.
What to do with unused shoes?
1. Obtain supply
Internet celebrity models: Due to the high income and consumption of Internet celebrity models, a lot of shoes are eliminated, including shoes of various famous brands and popular styles, so these recycled shoes are also the most valuable.
Photo studio: The photo studio provides clothing and shoes, and often eliminates old and unpopular styles of shoes.
School: When students take summer break or move dormitories, they tend to sort out some of their unwanted shoes. These student shoes are stylish and not cheap.
In addition, you can also dump garbage at residential areas and garbage stations to obtain supplies.
2. Sales
It is recommended to sell old shoes directly to recyclers, which does not require storage space, is convenient, fast, and has less risk.
You can also package high-quality shoes and ship them to economically backward areas such as Africa or the Middle East for sale. Second-hand goods are popular here as these areas crave products that offer great value for money. If you are strong, this is also a good way to make money.
The third type, household mite removal
As people pay more and more attention to healthy living, household hygiene issues, especially mite removal, have become the focus of attention. A recent survey conducted among people born in the 1990s and 2000s across the country found that more than 60% of the respondents believe that it is very important to remove mites in the home, and 50% of people carry out large-scale household cleaning and disinfection every spring and autumn. As people's pace of life accelerates, the demand for household mite removal is increasing.
As a sideline project, the biggest advantage of household mite removal is its large market demand and high profits. The general charge for household mite removal is between 200-500 yuan, and the specific price varies according to the service content and service area. In addition, selling some mite removal sprays, insecticides and other products can also increase income. In general, the income potential of household mite removal side projects is still very high.
If you want to operate this side project, you first need to understand the relevant knowledge and skills, including home mite removal methods, the use of tools and materials, etc. We must have a certain understanding so that customers feel that we are professional. This knowledge can be learned through the Internet.
Secondly, we need to divert traffic. You can share some notes on social media to introduce the benefits of mite removal, where the mites are most abundant, and the harm to the human body. At the same time, publishing some videos on short video platforms can also attract traffic.
Finally, if you do not want to implement the services yourself, you can also work with professionals. In the service process, we need to pay attention to service quality. Only in this way will customers continue to make transactions and introduce more business to us.
In short, facing the fiercely competitive job market, we need to proactively find positions that suit us. No matter which career you choose, as long as you work hard and work hard, you will definitely achieve what you want. Therefore, don’t give up or lose confidence after losing your job, because there are always opportunities in the world waiting for us to seize.
