Part-time contribution of magazine illustration-how to make money by drawing illustrations

College students do part-time jobs in their spare time. What are the advantages and disadvantages of this? It is good for college students to take part-time jobs, but it can't be said that there are no disadvantages.

Not bad, not bad in every way.

First of all, college students' part-time job can increase their life experience, so that they can learn not only the knowledge in textbooks, but also the knowledge outside textbooks. Secondly, college students' part-time jobs can reduce the financial burden of their families, and they are no longer small greenhouse flowers for making a living.

There are many kinds of part-time jobs for college students, and most of them will choose to be tutors. They think that being a tutor is a good income and doesn't need a very tiring job, especially helping primary school students with their homework. It doesn't need to spend too much time and energy at all. You just need to check after you finish your homework for the pupils. Compared with teaching junior high school students one-on-one, correcting homework for primary school students is the simplest job. In addition to tutoring, some students will also go to small restaurants to help. The salary is not very high, but the working hours every day are just eating. It's not a problem to fill your stomach with this part-time job every month. Don't keep calling home "Mom, there is no money" and "Dad, give me a thousand dollars"; Besides these, there are many other part-time jobs, such as distributing leaflets, taking part-time jobs online and so on.

In a word, in my opinion, the advantages of college students doing part-time jobs far outweigh the disadvantages.

Disadvantages? Why are there disadvantages?

You don't know this. Some college students try to give up all their studies for this small part-time job. I paid expensive tuition, but I didn't go to class for a day. Go out to work part-time under the banner of making money to reduce the burden on the family. When the final exam came, I began to worry about studying. I can't guarantee that I will fail so many subjects in the exam. When I have something important to escape, I will pay someone to replace him. When I finally finished calculating the accounts, I suddenly found that I didn't earn much money and delayed my studies. I regretted it, but it was too late.

What's more, some college students' information discrimination ability is so poor that they will fall into the trap of part-time job if they are not careful. Online always reports how much a college student was cheated by a part-time job. I regret being cheated, but it's too late. It's not a bad thing to find a part-time job, but you should have the ability to distinguish information. You shouldn't trust anyone who tells you how to make money. You should learn to use your brain to analyze and judge whether what the other person said is true, instead of trusting a stranger casually, let alone transferring money or making money to strangers casually.

Finding a part-time job is not a bad thing, nor a harmful thing, but you should treat part-time jobs hard, you can't rush in as soon as you hear that it is a part-time job, and you should have the most basic recognition ability.

Why part-time job for the sake of part-time job is the stupidest investment? As a college student, I also want to do some part-time jobs outside in my spare time, but we usually do part-time jobs just for part-time jobs, which is a stupid investment. Why?

Then we will ask, isn't part-time job a part-time job? What else will there be? We only do part-time jobs to enrich our lives and have more living expenses, don't we?

What I want to say is, of course, part-time jobs are not like this. If you only regard it as such a part-time job, then you are the stupidest investment. No matter what kind of part-time job it is, if you face it with a learning attitude, you will not only be happy with this part-time job, but also learn something that you can't learn in class, which has nothing to do with your major. You can learn some knowledge outside your major.

Part-time jobs will increase your work experience and your life experience, so it is foolish to invest in part-time jobs for the sake of part-time, so it is wise to study and improve your part-time jobs. Choosing a good part-time job can improve yourself and enrich yourself.

Finally, I want to tell you seriously. Don't envy the life of those rich people who have jobs, because as you get older, there will be one sooner or later. However, those things that you have and they don't have: time and youth are actually very important. So don't waste your youth doing some meaningless part-time jobs, you know, it's not worth it.

How to make money by drawing illustrations? Illustrations make money by sharing channels.

1, illustrator:

1) vision china/Station Kuluohai

These two platforms are both authoritative platforms. Vision china needs to upload his works on the platform after signing the contract, and Giankuhailuo can upload them directly. When uploading, you can choose exclusive or non-exclusive, depending on your needs. Although the non-exclusive income is not too high, the same works can be sold continuously to make money, which is a good way to earn income continuously.

2) Other solicitation platform websites

For example, illustrator China, rice painter, graffiti kingdom, artists' union, art box, UI China, Qiantu. com, petals and so on.

When uploading works on these platforms, it's best to pay more attention to the directional uploading of business hotspots and the serial uploading, and the effect will be doubled.

2. Peripheral products

1) own subnet:

You can open your own shop here, so you need to have your own traffic. It can also be sold on behalf of the company, and the share of sales revenue will be much less, but the products can be sold through the traffic of the platform. Before that, I simply uploaded a few pictures, and I sold a few simple pictures happily, but because it was for sale, the income was not very high, but it was also a small channel for continuous income.

2) Taobao shop cooperation:

After you continue to increase your exposure and promote yourself, some Taobao stores will take the initiative to seek your cooperation. There are two ways of store cooperation:

You set the price.

For example, a T-shirt shop has its own reserve price, which will let you set the price. The money you earn is the price you set minus the floor price of the store.

Pricing (you decide) = store floor price+price difference (earned)

Earn commission

For example, in a decorative painting shop, he will give 5% ~ 10% of the monthly sales at a specified time every month.

3) Open your own shop:

Taobao shop or micro shop. This requires you to bring your own traffic and have a certain popularity. Many people like your paintings very much. You can open your own shop and sell some peripheral products made by your own illustrations. Such as T-shirts, notebooks, mobile phone cases, canvas bags, pillows and so on.

4) publish a book:

Illustrations or picture books can continue to receive royalties.

5) offline large-scale illustration activities:
