26-year-old works 20 minutes a day, brings in $462,000 a year from side hustle: I'm 'doing less' and 'making more' than ever!
This is the story of Francisco Rivera, a 26-year-old who makes a killing selling candles on Etsy.
He doesn't even like candles, but his print-on-demand side hustle brought in a whopping $462,000 last year!
Rivera used to work part-time as a tutor, but when demand dropped, he found a YouTube video about print-on-demand.
He creates witty candle label designs on Canva, lists them on Etsy, and uses Printify to connect with manufacturers.
The best part? He often works just 20 minutes a day, sometimes up to 2 hours for research and new designs.
Rivera says his side hustle is replicable, and the print-on-demand model is low-risk with minimal upfront costs.
While candles were a newer category, he chose them over saturated products like T-shirts and mugs.
The biggest downside? Copycats replicating his bestselling designs, forcing him to file copyright claims.
His advice? Don't get married to your creations β ditch underperforming designs and research trending products.
Rivera's story proves that with consistency and creativity, you can turn a side hustle into a lucrative full-time gig.
Unique Lessons:
- Explore new or less saturated product categories for better opportunities.
- Be willing to adapt and let go of underperforming designs or ideas.
- Researching trends and popular products can help guide your efforts.
- Consistency and creativity are key to turning a side hustle into a full-time income.
We hope you enjoyed this deep-dive case study.

Strategies obviously don't work in all regimes.
But I wouldn't try to solve the problem with an off/on switch based on some weird regime targeting method.
I haven't found any reliable way to do regime targeting, at least in the traditional retail way.

You're afraid that people are gonna judge you if you do that thing you've always wanted to do.
In reality, they're not thinking about you at all, and if they do, it's just for a few unimportant seconds.
Get out of your head.
Nobody cares. Take action.
