Handyman side hustle advice? (alien.top)

Hello fellow hustlers. I want to make some extra cash because my full time job isn't cutting it because they don't allow overtime. It's stupid it's a rule and I can't change it. I have the weekends off though and can even work something online at work if I find something i'm good at. I'm a handyman though so I can do basic plumbing, electrical, construction, assembly, and trash removal. Although finding clients for this seems to be the most difficult part. Doing the work is the easy part finding clients is next level sh$#! I'm pretty tech savvy aswell though. Any ideas folks i'd much appreciate it. Love to fill up my days off with some productive work.

Join all the local FB groups for your area and use the Nextdoor App and put yourself out there. Be clear who you are what you can do. May take time to get traction. I see post all the time if people that need store bought stuff assembled like gazebos, kids play set and random things. Also presentation matters. I called one of the posters for electrical work and the way he presented himself I could wait to get him to leave plus I felt he was over charging me. As we casually talked he kept lower and lowering the price and I hadn’t even asked. We did not do business
