As you can imagine I get lots of email from Mums who would like to earn a little extra money and just don’t know where to start. Many of them aren’t looking to start a fully fledged home-based business they just want to earn a little extra cash to help with bills etc..

Well I came across a site that can help you to earn by capitalizing on your experience. - No matter what it’s in ! (Thanks to Lynette over at momsgadgets for directing me to this one !)

Built on the philosophy that we all have something to share mindbites is kind of pay per view video teaching site.

Basically you create a video - you upload it onto mindbites and people pay to watch it. That’s the very basics of it, obviously there is a bit more to it. For example you don’t even need a camera if you want to create a screencast lesson or an audio lesson.

So what could I create a video on I hear you cry ! Well have a look at mindbites you will see there is everything from the straightforward to the complicated to the bizarre ! I’ve seen videos on crafts, on food, on technical issues even things like how to trim a childs hair, or how to treat basic first aid (great to see in action)

We all know how to do something ! so why not share your knowledge and earn at the same time. It works on a credit system viewers buy credits starting starting at around €1 and then they can use the credits to watch the videos. One thing which is quite good to entice people is that they show a 60 second preview for free. So if you can make a good impact with the beginning of your video then people will want to continue watching the rest !

Lets face it you are not going to retire on the proceeds of something like this ! but hey every little bit helps and why not earn a little while helping others and having fun at the same time

(or use it as a school or charity fundraiser)
