Flex isn't working like I thought it would and I'm looking for some good side hustle/contract gigs.
Any ideas or sites to take a look at those gigs?

Where to find 1099 roles?

Whats your background and experience look like?
Currently in InsureTech. I’d be happy to message you my resume if that’s cool
Send it over I know some people I can pass it to. They will let me know real quick if they aren't looking right now.
I’ll DM you
Most door-to-door gigs (roofing, solar, pest control) are 1099 gigs. They are a grind, but can definitely pay.
Roofers all cray AF but you're right they get PAID 💯
Can vouch for the solar income claim. $500k happens. I might know someone.
Mind if I DM? Looking into D2D solar
I assume this is for just a side gig not a full time. What r u looking for in terms of money? Have a few ideas but might not be good enough for ya…
I’m honestly open to anything. The company I’m at isn’t great so if you got both side gig ideas or full time deals to explore I’m all ears.
Depends on where you live and personally I wouldn’t stay at this for long - you could try street fundraising. Probably will net you about 30 bucks an hr if you are good at it. Cool thing is u can do this as both a side or full source of income.
Bad news is money isn’t super good, and it’s all in person. I have some connections (not sure where you are based) but feel free to dm if interested.

You could go the freelance route. Apollo is like $99 per year.
Pick a niche, look for companies that may be more willing to do 1099 work and do outreach.
I feel ya tho bro, my flex opps kinda fizzled out as of late.

Never heard of Apollo. What’s the website?
just type in apollodotio, it's for outreach to send emails/make cold calls not a job board. Sorry if I misled you.
yeah that actualy a great way to go freelance imo
what is it that you do not like about Flex?
Nothing necessarily that I don’t like I matched with a company and had an interview and the role got dropped. I know it’s early days and there is potential it’s just fallen flat for me so I’m looking to adjust.
I matched with a company, accepted the opp, and then got a notification that I "wasn't qualified." Which I don't understand how one would match and then be DQ'ed, but whatever. So you're not the only one that Flex has not really worked for.
@Gasty can you help these people out with Flex?
@Space_Ghost20 : I suspect that in your case, the company filled their hiring needs with the first set of interviews. I agree the message could've been more on the lines of "position getting filled" than you being disqualified.

@kindagoodae : Help me understand this - what do you exactly mean by "role got dropped"?
All the best dude
SellingX and maybe Upwork?
You gotta network my dude!
Doing that as well!
You're going to hate this, but I get them inbound from posting on LinkedIn.
Good luck!
Sites? Pick up the phone and make it happen
Network, Network, Network my friend. Linkedin DM some Series A owners at companies you like and see if they're open to the idea of having you as a 1099 commission only employee.
