You’ve spent years learning how to keep nails healthy and strong, so why not share your wisdom? Create an e-book filled with nail care tips, tricks, and advice that your clients and other nail techs would love. You can sell it on your website or through platforms like Amazon.
3. Social Media Content Templates
Who doesn’t struggle with what to post next? Help out your fellow nail techs by designing social media templates—think Instagram stories, post templates, and promotional graphics. They’ll save time and look professional, and you’ll make money by selling them as downloadable files.
