Starting A Summer Business For Your Kids
The best way to decide what business approach to take with the child or children is to find their interest. If the child is not interested in what is going on the business will not be successful. The adult must keep in mind that the business is for the child and not for themselves. It is often found that parents become too hard on their children and push them too far. Being forced to do something will make the person less interested and less motivated to complete the task. The most common types of businesses children run with their parents are a lemonade business. Many children enjoy the building the lemonade stand with their parents because they spend quality time together. Lemonade believe it or not makes a lot of money depending on how much each cup is sold for and how long it is being sold. In addition to lemonade many parents find it helpful to sell baked goods from home. If the baked goods and lemonade are good most likely people are willing to come back and recommend friends.Girl Scout cookies sell for a lot of money with children who are members of the club. Even though the profit from the cookies goes back to the organization they will be taught good sale tactics. The parents are allowed to help their children sell the cookies as long as the money gets back to the organization. Even though the child does not profit financially quality time is spent together and the child obtains good information on how to sell things. The child will gain good and consistent customers by selling for a good cause. There are many things that can be sold to make a good profit such as things around the house that are no longer needed. Having a garage sale or yard sale is a good way to make money. Selling things that are old that the children have grown out of will teach them to let go of the things that are no longer needed. The child will feel good giving it to a family or person who really needs the items. Teaching a child how to share is very important. Customers who purchase the items will be very grateful because they are purchasing items they need for the home at discounted prices they can't find anywhere else. Children will find it fun to make colorful signs and talk to new people. Good customer service from the child will provide them with tips. Car washes are also a good way to make profit. The children will enjoy being around cool vehicles and playing around with the car. In the summer many people will need their car washed and appreciate having it washed by someone who will put the money to good use. Having the children actively involved in the summer is the best way to go and what better way to have them active than to make a profit for their hard work? |
