Park Days, Pay Days: How I Finessed a Full Workday with Toddlers & Tech

By DaniMarie | Fanbase the Finesser | aka The Park Lady


Today I ran my business out the trunk of my car, livestreamed on YouTube and Fanbase from the playground, sold snacks, entertained toddlers, managed tech issues, and still walked away with content, connections, and coin.

Why?

Because moms deserve a business model that moves with them.
And that’s exactly what I’m building in real-time.


The Mission: Monetize Real Life

While the kids played, I went live.
I streamed behind-the-scenes content from the park, hosted a Zoom call, answered questions about side hustles, and gave the raw, unfiltered truth on what it’s like to balance motherhood, business, and unpredictable weather.

The goal?


Show other moms how to monetize their everyday routines with strategy, style, and a little tech finesse.


Hence the name: Fanbase the Finesser. πŸ’…πŸΎ


What It Looked Like IRL:

  • I was on Fanbase, hosting social audio rooms + posting Flicks

  • On YouTube, sharing my top side hustles for 2025

  • Using Zoom to stream content and coach in real-time

  • All while at the park with my two boys—and yes, they were fed, happy, and part of the content

The “park hustle” is real. I sell essentials parents forget—fruit snacks, wipes, sanitizer, water—and pair that with live digital content teaching other parents how to do the same.


What We Talked About on the Stream:

  • Reselling basics at the park as a low-lift, repeatable side hustle

  • Using AI tools like ChatGPT, Perplexity, and HeyGen to automate, promote, and create

  • How I document every part of this journey to later turn into digital products, workshops, and content

  • What it takes to actually scale a hustle when you’re also wiping noses and sharing Goldfish


Real Life Strategy for Real Moms:

I’m building a blueprint that includes:

  • A new IG account: @TheParkLadyOfficial

  • A digital coupon + text list for recurring customers

  • QR code-driven promos (because we paperless, baby)

  • Livestreams that double as both teaching + earning opportunities

  • AI-generated promo content to keep me visible, even when I’m napping in the car with my kids


Today’s Inventory + Adjustments:

✅ Fruit snacks, water, wipes
πŸ” Need more gloves, sanitizer, bug spray
πŸ’¬ Customer request? Waterproof phone cases. Bet.
🧾 Note to self: Get business cards reprinted and center the text this time.

                                                        


Next Steps I'm Finessing:

  • Systematize park pop-up setup + takedown

  • Use Perplexity AI to find best park times + locations

  • Start filming a tutorial series on “Park Hustle 101”

  • Develop a full Park Hustle Starter Kit

  • Order more supplies and prep a seasonal shift (hello fall baked potatoes 😏)


Post-Hustle Recap:

We had Chipotle for lunch, ran errands, and stayed flexible with our schedule by rating the day as a B-Day (mid-energy). We keep it cute and strategic, not chaotic. Tomorrow we’re off to Seattle for more content and connection.


Final Thoughts from Fanbase the Finesser

This ain’t just content—it’s curriculum.
This isn’t just playtime—it’s product testing.
This isn’t just motherhood—it’s movement building.

And I’m here to show other millennial moms how to finesse every moment of it.
