Questions
Questions people ask before they join.
Who is Hustlera for?
People who are just starting a side hustle and want to get seen and booked. Bakers, nail techs, dog walkers, cleaners, photographers, tutors, braiders, candle makers and plenty more. If people keep telling you “you should sell this” and you are not sure where to start, this is for you.
I am not techy at all. Can I really do this?
Yes. Hustlera is built for people who are not techy. Everything is in plain words, there is a guided walkthrough you can reopen any time, and a setup list with nine small steps. One small step a day gets you live in a week.
How fast can I be live?
The plan is one small step a day, so you can be live in a week. Day 1 is building your page. By day 5 you are sending your link out and planning your posts.
How much does it cost?
$9 a month. There is one plan, so there is nothing to compare or figure out.
Is $9 a month really worth it?
Say you charge $20 for a 30 minute service. One booking pays for more than two months of Hustlera. And every time someone books from your page instead of asking the same questions in your DMs, you get that time back.
I do not have customers yet. Is it too early?
No. Hustlera is made for the very beginning. Having your prices, your booking link and your payment info ready before the first person asks makes you look like you have been doing this for years.
Is there a contract? Can I cancel?
No contract. You can cancel any time from My Subscription inside the app, with no phone calls and no hoops. You keep full access until the end of the month you already paid for.
What happens to my customers' info if I cancel?
It is yours. Your customers and contacts are always yours, and you can export them any time, even after you cancel.
Do I need my own website or a domain?
No. You get your own page link, like hustlera.com/your-name. Put it in your Instagram bio, on your digital card and on a QR code.
Do my customers need an account or an app?
No. They open your link, pick a time or fill out your form, and that is it.
Can I use my own booking link, like Calendly?
Yes. Turn off booking on your page and point your booking button and QR codes to your own link instead.
How do I get paid? Does Hustlera take a cut?
Hustlera never touches your money and never charges your customers. Your Payments page shows people how to pay you directly, with Venmo, Cash App, Zelle, Apple Pay, or your own Stripe or PayPal link.
Will Hustlera text or email my customers for me?
No. Hustlera never sends messages to your customers by itself, and no reminders or confirmations go out on their own. When you want to confirm a booking, remind someone or follow up, grab a template, tap copy and send it yourself from your own phone. The only emails Hustlera sends are to you: your login code, your password reset link and your signup confirmation.
Does it connect to Google Calendar?
Not right now. Your bookings live on the calendar inside Hustlera.
Is it only for dog walking?
No. The screenshots show a dog walker named Maria, but you can pick from 45 side hustles, from baking and nails to cleaning, tutoring and photography, or choose Other. Your message templates and post ideas are written for the one you pick, and you can change it later.
Can I make my page look like me?
Yes. Pick your colors, button shape, profile photo, a top picture, your links, your prices and which sections show. You can also change how the app itself looks: light or dark, softer color, and rounder or squarer corners.
What if I need a break from my hustle?
Turn on Away mode. Your booking button pauses and a friendly note shows on your page until you are back.
Is my customers' info private?
Yes. Every account is private. Your customers and inquiries are yours alone, and nobody else using Hustlera can see them. The people who run Hustlera only see totals, like how many inquiries came in, never who sent them.
Does it work on my phone?
Yes. Hustlera works on phones and computers, and on a phone you get a bottom menu with big buttons so you can run your hustle from anywhere.
Is it available in Spanish?
Yes. Switch between English and Español with one tap. Your message templates and post ideas come in Spanish too.
Will it do everything for my business?
No, and it is not trying to. Hustlera is a set of starter tools: your page, card, QR codes, form, inbox, calendar, payment info, money tracker, templates and post planner. It gets you out there and makes you easy to book. You still run the day to day yourself.
How do I sign up and update my card?
You sign up on a secure checkout and your plan turns on. To change your card or see receipts, use the secure payment page linked from My Subscription.
