This Mom Makes 7K+ With a Simple Service

I hope you're enjoying these daily niche businesses —today is idea #4. If you have any suggestions or input for the newsletter, I’d love to hear your thoughts.

This is a story of a mom I personally know and she started this business sort of by accident. She offered this simple service for a family member, then a friend, then another friend…. and it grew organically from there.

So let’s jump into today’s story…

Most people have thousands of photos sitting on their phones, computers, and old hard drives—but don’t want to take the time to sort them.

That’s where Emily comes in. She started a digital photo organizing service, helping families and businesses clean up their photo chaos. Now, she earns $7K/month doing it from home.

How She Did It:

💰 How much she makes:
$200–$1,500 per project, depending on the number of photos and services.

🛠 Startup Cost:
Very little (just a laptop and cloud storage)

⚡ How She Finds Clients:
Emily started by offering help in Facebook groups for busy parents and professionals. Once she built a portfolio, word spread through referrals.

She now works with families, photographers, and even law firms that need thousands of images sorted and backed up.

⏳ Time Spent:
Emily spends 10–20 hours per week on her business. Totally flexible—clients send their photos, and she organizes them on her own time.

⭐ Why It Works:
People take more photos than ever, but don’t have time to organize them. Emily offers an easy solution to a frustrating problem.

What You’d Need to Start:

✅ A laptop
✅ Cloud storage (Google Drive, Dropbox, or iCloud)
✅ Sorting software like Apple Photos or Adobe Lightroom

The best part? Emily also offers photo book creation and long-term cloud storage as upsells—bringing in extra revenue from the same clients.
