The Dorm Drop – Issue #1
🧠 Idea of the Week
College is your cover story. But your hustle?
That’s your real resume.
No matter what you’re studying — English, engineering, or underwater basket weaving — what you build while you're in school is what sets you up for real-world success.
So let’s build something.
💰 3 Ways to Earn While You Learn
1. 📝 Class Note Monetization
If you take good notes, someone will pay for them.
Platforms like Studocu, Nexus Notes, or even DIY shops via Notion templates are paying students for quality content.
⚡ Pro Tip: Bundle notes from multiple classes and split profits with a friend.
2. 🤖 AI-Powered Micro Tutoring
Use ChatGPT to create quizzes, flashcards, or summaries — then offer “15-for-15” study sessions.
That’s $15 for 15 minutes of your time.
Quick help is worth it to your classmates. This is student-to-student value at its best.
3. 🌐 Lead-Gen for Local Businesses
If you know Canva, ChatGPT, or how to build a simple site — you’ve got gold.
Offer social media content, one-page sites, or email setup to small businesses in your college town.
Start at $100–$300/month per client. They need you — they just don’t know it yet.
🛠️ Student Stack Tool of the Week
🧰 Tally.so
Create quick forms, surveys, or client intake pages.
It’s free, mobile-friendly, and perfect for side hustles that need structure — without code.
