1- Remote Honeymoon Specialist

The first remote job on the list will be a remote honeymoon specialist, and this is a position where you’ll craft unforgettable romantic experiences for people who just got married. You will do this by collaborating with various vendors and organizing travel arrangements. So you’ll be a specialized travel agent, and that’s even better. If you further specialize in certain areas. You have your niche.

I know someone who explained how they succeeded in this position. They said they narrowed their specialties to Tahiti, Fiji, Mexico, Hawaii, and the Caribbean. They said they knew every restaurant, every hotel, and every excursion in those areas related to a romantic vacation. Would this be so valuable for someone? It takes a ton of work to plan this type of thing out.

I found one open remote job posting where they had a salary of $70,000 to $129,000 a year. So, as usual, as the old saying goes, the riches are in the niches, and if you specialize enough, you can make a ton of money doing this.

So, here are some job opportunities.

• Virtual Oasis Co., apply via Salary
• Happy Vibes Travel, apply via Linkedin

I will give this one a 9 out of 10 opportunity score

Product researchers make between $73,000 and $124,000 a year with zero requirements.

A keen eye for detail, analytical thinking, and creativity would be best. So think about it like this. Let’s say you get a job working for an Amazon store, and this Amazon store makes 10 million dollars a year and sells ten different products. So each product makes about a million dollars a year if you can find them, even one more product that fits with their brand and identity and is suitable for their customers, something their customers want.

That’s probably going to bring them an extra million dollars a year. So clearly, it’s worth it for them to hire someone full-time for a position like this. Because even if you find them like one product, you’ll pay for your position every ten years. So yeah, this one is perfect. It’s relatively easy.

So, believe it or not, you don’t need to have any programming experience with this, but it does help if you have a little bit just because it’ll be easier for you to talk with the programmers on the team. But this one is more focused on just the digital experience in general.

In this position, you make about $50,000 To $77,000 a year. So yeah, this is another perfect one; there are a lot of opportunities out there that are not difficult.

So overall, I’ll give this one a 7 out of 10 opportunity score, considering it’s a little more complex than others on the list.

They don’t want your email getting spammed, and there are certain things you can do as a company.

To increase your deliverability score, AKA make your emails not spammy, and that’s precisely what email deliverability specialists do. Now, if you work for an e-commerce company, for instance, that has millions of subscribers, even just increasing the deliverability score by 5% or 10% might result in millions of dollars of extra revenue over the years. This is why email deliverability specialists make $86,000 to $136,000 a year.

The exciting thing about this is there’s no degree or pathway to get into it. It’s just something that you have to learn. So this is something you can study on your own.

They are unfriendly, and you must constantly contact customer support or learn how to do anything. Well, chances are the user-friendly websites probably hired some user-experience researchers. User-experience researchers make $95,000 to $145,000 a year. This is the best-paying remote job. This is one of those positions where you don’t need a college degree. You don’t need previous experience. There isn’t a pathway to get into it.

This is why many boot camps and certification programs teach people how to do this. Now, I’m not going to lie to you. This is going to be one of the harder ones to get into.
