Start consulting on the evenings or weekends. Even if it's just setting up Shopify stores or making someone a portfolio site.
If you don't have any leads, skip Craigslist and Rent-a-Coder and start going to tech/business meetups, asking friends and family if they know anyone who needs anything, and talking to random strangers at the bar. I've gotten ridiculously profitable clients at the bar.
Oh, and never do anything for free. In fact, always get a deposit, even if it's for a friend.
