Teach your young learners how to budget, run a business, earn money and how to spend it!

Calling all young entrepreneurs! But wait...how do you know if your child has the entrepreneurial spirit? 

Here are 6 characteristics to look for:

  1. They are creative and have problem solving skills.
  2. Your child does not conform to social norms.
  3. Your child thinks outside the box and learns from doing so.
  4. They can be very persuasive.
  5. They are more likely to take a risk.
  6. They show signs of leadership.

So how do you allow their skills to flourish? Here are 6 tips for setting your young entrepreneur up for success:

  1. Stop buying them things! Instead, encourage them to make and use their OWN money.
  2. Teach them how to budget. 
  3. Enroll them in an online course for how to create a business plan, price products and market their business. Such as Beauty & Business or Young Entrepreneur's Business Plan
  4. Give them real life experiences.
  5. Allow them to fail. This is sometimes the greatest teacher and allows children to naturally pivot by solving problems. 
  6. Give them opportunities to sell and don't interfere. Allow your child to sell completely independent of an adult. An adult can be nearby watching with pride from the shadows.
