Master your finances, one gig at a time.
A full-time financial literacy business designed for the booming gig economy. GigWorth combines a robust digital platform with regular in-person workshops to deliver actionable financial education. The online hub offers self-paced video courses, interactive budgeting tools, tax filing guides, and a community forum, all tailored to freelance and contract workers. Monthly workshops held in coworking spaces or community centers reinforce learning through hands-on activities, one-on-one coaching, and peer networking. Content covers income smoothing, quarterly tax payments, retirement planning for the self-employed, and debt management. Led by Accredited Financial Counselors, the program builds trust and accountability. Revenue comes from tiered subscriptions, workshop fees, and corporate partnerships with gig platforms. With an initial investment of $25k+, the business will develop a comprehensive curriculum, hire part-time instructors, and execute a targeted marketing campaign to attract gig workers across the city, scaling through referrals and B2B contracts.
The gig economy is surging yet traditional financial services ignore its workers; with inflation and economic uncertainty, demand for personalized, practical money skills has never been higher.
Conduct a needs assessment survey targeting 200 local gig workers and host a free pilot workshop to gauge interest and refine the curriculum.
