It seems there are a lot of folks interested in doing some work for Permies. Being one of Paul's virtual assistants might be a good fit for a very small number of folks, but there are a lot of other opportunities to help Permies while earning income, aside form the VA thing. I thought I'd write down some things to consider pursuing for those folks.
These things may be a good fit for you if:
- You love permies, but only want to work part-time
- You want to set your own schedule, and work on the things you're passionate about
- You want to help permies with a few hours a week, and wouldn't mind earning a few bucks along the way
- You want to build passive and/or residual income, in a way that will benefit you more in the long-term than traditional hourly work.
If this is ringing your bells, may I suggest looking at some of the following options:
- Permies.com Affiliate Program - In my humble opinion, Permies.com Affiliate Program is the strongest, most transparent and generous program out there. After all, Paul is a computer dude and creator as well as a permaculture doofus, soso it makes sense that he has built an incredibly strong infrastructure for this sort of thing. Now, having worked with Paul for the last year, I can attest that the tools are powerful and the potential is only limited by your own time, energy, and creativity. Additionally - permaculture, homesteading, and regenerative ag resources are growing and under-served markets, meaning there is relatively little competition in the market at this time.

- If you want to help permies, but aren't interested in the business sorts of things, there are many threads to help you get started. I like the list Jocelyn put together back in 2014:
I would add to that list
- just keep hanging around! There is so much going on at permies all the time. Jump in somewhere and get involved.
- Don't forget about SKIP & PEP!
- You might check out some ways that other permies have developed income on and off permies here: Residual Income PEP BB
In short, there are so many ways to help, get involved, and even earn income with Permies.
What am I missing here? Anything I should add? I'd also love to hear from some people who have done some of our affiliate stuff. A story, some encouragement, or links to threads and other places where it's working . . .
