In a time when everyone is looking for extra sources of income, foot pictures have become one of the easiest and most astonishing side hustles. It is low effort, low risk, and it doesn’t require revealing your identity or having a massive following. This can be the perfect opportunity for anyone: a student, stay-at-home parent, freelancer, or anyone needing extra funds on the side.
Here is how you can turn your feet into passive income.
Why sell foot pics?
It may sound bizarre, but there is equitably sourced (no pun intended) demand for foot content. Foot pictures are used in many different areas: brands in fashion, in wellness, digital creators, and niche collectors. There are many audiences looking for well shot photos of feet and there is no shame in having a niche foot-page. judgement free zone, as long as you create interesting content and professional images – they are only interested in winning.
The best part? Once you build a collection, those images can continue to sell multiple times, long after they are posted. The “passive” in passive income comes into play.
Step 1: Prepare Your Feet
There is an old saying – you never get a second chance to make a good first impression. It should go without saying but make sure your feet look clean, moisturized, and well-groomed. A clean pedicure goes a long way to increase the aesthetic appeal of your photos. Think of your feet you are now selling as any other product you want to show off.
Step 2: Take Nice, High-Quality Pictures
You don’t need expensive equipment. A smartphone that has a decent camera, good lighting (natural is best), and a neutral background will work. Try different angles, subjects (heels, barefoot, in socks), and props (sand, petals, shoes) to give variety to your content.
Step 3: Use a Trusted Platform
Once you have your pictures, it is time to start selling. You will need a trusted platform that connects you with real buyers and protects your payment and personal information. FeetFinder is one of the most popular platforms specifically designed for this type of content. FeetFinder verifies users, provides seller privacy protection, and provides their sellers with the ultimate transaction experience, not just for beginners but for professional sellers as well.
Step 4: Set up a Seller Profile
You will want to use an alias or username that allows you to remain anonymous. Create short and catchy bio and upload a sample of pictures to show what type of content you will be selling. By using the same repetitive type of branding (artsy, sensual, playful, etc.) your potential audience will know what to expect from you.
Step 5: Price and Sell on Your Terms
You are going to want to start with cheap prices to build consistent orders and buyers. Once you establish your seller reputation and a following, you can begin to raise your prices. You can offer a custom picture set or themed set and sell them at a premium price to sell to premium buyers. Always get payment for content before you send any content or pictures. This is especially important for custom/personalized work.
Step 6: Promote Your Page Anonymously
You can begin promoting your feet page by building anonymous accounts on Reddit, Pinterest, or Twitter. You can utilize subreddits and communities that value feet and join them whenever you want.
