Did you know artificial intelligence (AI) may be able to help you figure out how to earn six figures while working a limited schedule — even if you only have a high school diploma?
I consulted ChatGPT on this and here are the five best part-time jobs paying six figures.
Account Executive (Sales Representative)
- Average base salary: $79,155
As an account executive, you’ll find and qualify leads for high-ticket products or services, run sales calls, and close deals. If you’re a persuasive communicator, you could earn up to to $200,000 or more annually (typically in commissions) while working 25 hours or less per week (generally as an independent contractor). You’ll likely need some training and mentorship to develop and refine sales skills.Â
Independent Insurance Producer
- Average base salary: $67,765
As an independent insurance producer selling life and health insurance products to individuals and families, you could earn up to $250,000 or more per year (through commissions and residual income) working less than 40 hours per week. To get started, you’ll need to pass a state exam (which you can study for and take within a matter of weeks), become a licensed agent, and pass a background check. You’ll also need strong people and sales skills to be successful.
Freelance Copywriter
- Average base salary: $100,465
As a freelance copywriter, you’ll write sales pages, landing pages, emails, ads, and other content that consistently compels readers to purchase a product or service. Since your work directly influences a company’s revenue, you could earn up to $300,000 per year working part-time hours. You must have a portfolio of prior work demonstrating your skills — and your results — to command top rates.
Real Estate Wholesaler
- Average base salary: $97,720
As a real estate wholesaler, you’ll find off-market properties, negotiate sales contracts, and assign those deals to buyers. You could earn up to $30,000 per deal, which can quickly add up to six figures each year, working a limited number of hours per week. You’ll need local market knowledge, sales and negotiation skills, and a network of ready, qualified buyers to be successful.
High-Ticket Coach or Consultant
- Average base salary: $83,055
As a high-ticket coach or consultant, you’ll use your niche expertise to help others solve their problems. You could earn up to $250,000 or more annually by selling just a few four or five-figure packages per month. Having a coaching certification may help boost your credibility, but the main things you need to be successful are testimonials from satisfied clients and some sales and marketing skills.
