How to Build a Local Side Business That Can Earn a Few Thousand Dollars Per Month

If you want to earn some extra cash on the side, create a safety net, or finally build something of your own so you're not dependent on an employer who doesn't care about you..The Handshake Business Program was built specifically to help you.

I'm Ari. Let me show you how this works.The Handshake Business Program is a 6-week coaching program where you learn a proven system for building a local side business that can earn thousands of dollars per month.

What is a Handshake Business?

A handshake business is a simple local business where you sell products at markets, festivals, events, pop-ups, and community gatherings on weekends or in your free time.This is best for people who are willing to put in a few hours on evenings or weekends and want a practical way to earn extra income without building a complicated online business.I've built several successful handshake businesses, and am still actively running them in my free time, while still working a full-time job.As I write this, I made $1,246 last week at a farmer's market selling popcorn, lemonade, and donuts. That's not revenue from a complicated online business. It's money collected face-to-face from people in my local community.It's not easy if you don't know what you're doing (I spent years learning the ins and outs the hard way), but after getting it down to a science, I found a way to help you launch and succeed with yours in 6 weeks.You just follow the steps I give you. If you're wondering why I don't just do more of this because it works so well, I'll be honest, it requires real time and effort.But I can help you do the same thing in your town.

Here's what you get:

  • The step-by-step Handshake Business Process that walks you from getting started to your first paying customers

  • Daily accountability check-ins so you actually do the work

  • Direct DM access to me for feedback, strategy, and coaching on every interaction

  • Calls whenever you need them

  • Help choosing what to sell, where to sell it, and how to price it based on what's actually working in the real world

  • A system you own when this is over. Not just 6 weeks of coaching, but a repeatable process you can use for years

And you'll have me (Ari) in your corner the entire time, actually caring and making sure this works for you.I've been doing this for over 5 years, and I've sold a bunch of different products — everything from candles, stickers and t-shirts, to lemonade, popcorn, and donuts.Now I want to help you build one of these businesses too.Investment: $1,500 for 6 weeks of coaching.Guarantee: If you do the work and follow the program, I expect you'll earn back your entire investment before the 6 weeks are over. If that doesn't happen, I'll continue working with you for another month at no additional cost so we can get you there.Interested? DM me on Substack and we'll figure out if this is a fit for you.
