Marcus Ellery writes The Hustle Board’s guides on side hustles and the software behind them.

Areas of Expertise

  • Side hustle ideas sorted by profile, budget and available time
  • AI and SaaS tools used to run a side hustle — what they do, how their plans compare, the alternatives
  • Online income models — print on demand, faceless video channels, niche blogs, digital products
  • Side-hustle economics — what can grow into a business and what is freelance work under another name

Writing Approach

Tool pages are built from each vendor’s official documentation and pricing page. Prices, plans and limits change often: each one carries the date it was read, and when the official page could not be read, the article links to it instead of quoting a number. Earnings figures are only given when a named, dated source publishes them. Every guide ends with who it fits, who it does not, and what to try instead.
