5 Ways You Can Make Money Being Creative

Are you the creative type? Are you tired of people asking you to share your creativity for free? I understand how you feel.

People have told me I was creative. They asked me to work on projects, but when it came to compensation, they expected me to work for free, often using the excuse, “think of all the exposure you’ll get.” Exposure, spamosure. I gotta pay the rent.

I told myself, if I ever get the opportunity to work with creative people, I will compensate them for their work.

Here are 5 fun ways you can make money at MiamiBeach411:

1. Write a Movie Review - Earn $100 Last year, the two largest newspapers in South Florida decided to no longer employ movie reviewers. That same week, MiamiBeach411 started paying people to write movie reviews. Why? Because there have been so many movies and TV shows filmed here, we thought it would be cool to publish a review about each one. How do you get paid? Just write a review of any movie or TV show from this list of films and earn $100.
2. Write a Carl Hiaasen Book Review - Earn $100 Everyone is looking for a good book to take on vacation, and Carl Hiaasen books are the best! Want to earn some extra dough just by reading a book? Write a review about any of Carl Hiaasen’s books and we’ll pay you $100.
