Side hustles can boost your money life, but only if you avoid the mistakes that tank most people early on.
In this episode of Making Cents: Ask the Experts, we’re breaking down the most common side hustle mistakes, and how to avoid them.
From financial pitfalls to admin overload, we’re giving you real, practical advice to help you start a side hustle that actually works.
I’m joined by Joanna Greaves, General Manager of Business Banking at Kiwibank, who’s seen thousands of small businesses and side hustles come through the system.
She shares what works, what fails, and the one thing most people forget to do when turning a small idea into a successful income stream.
We cover:
• How to start a side hustle the smart way
• Financial tips for side hustlers (before you even make your first dollar)
• When to move from personal to business accounts
• The hidden risks that catch beginners out
• The one step that separates sustainable hustles from burnout traps
If you want to start a business on the side, build up financial freedom, or just make a little extra income, this episode gives you the roadmap, minus the guru hype.
