It’s never too soon to encourage your kids to be innovative and self-sufficient. And once your child hits the teen years, there are plenty of opportunities to earn money by doing odd jobs, or even by establishing a small home-grown business.
This is a great opportunity for your teen to develop and strengthen his/ her individual skills and interests with a practical goal in mind. Is your teen interested in music or dancing? Is he/she clever with tools and hands-on tasks? Does he/she have an entrepreneurial spirit, or is he/she simply keen to earn money to reach a certain goal?
The best way for your teen to earn money is by pursuing his/her own interests, whether it is swimming, working with children, working outdoors or on the computer. It is easier to maintain enthusiasm and stay innovative when we are doing something that we love.
This book explores the basics of independent jobs for teens, so they can set up a business that is rewarding and enjoyable while paving a path into their chosen future.

The book discusses 18 job ideas as well as a guide to help teens, or kids, get started in their own business. Ideas discussed include:
• legal and safety considerations
• Federal working laws
• writing a business plan
• how to ask for money
• quotes and invoices
• how to decide if a job is for you

This book is wonderful, if your child wants to make money by going into business for themselves! It takes you through the whole process. From legal aspects, to writing business plans, and action plans. This book is well written to help self starters get a real grasp on what it takes to start a business. I highly recommend this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent and realistic introduction to entrepreneurship
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 21, 2019
Verified Purchase
I thought this book was excellent, not just for teenagers but adults as an introduction to areas of self employment. It is very practical, realistic and sensible. It advises to consider legal requirements which is necessary, and also gives practical instruction on how to work in a number of start up ventures, creative and practical. Adults wanting a practical introduction to starting as self employed would find this book helpful too. It is a great starter book for self employment.

5.0 out of 5 stars what a great book for making money for Teens
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 11, 2014
Verified Purchase
This a well written and easy to read book for any teenager. The book covers guidelines that one needs to be aware of such as age restrictions, taxation, creating a business plan, having a budget etc.
The book then covers
a) Possible jobs that a teenager can do. There are the more well know jobs such as newspaper delivery to the more artistic type jobs such as a performer, or party planner.
b) For each job type it covers the personality type which is best suited for the job role, benefits, tools required etc.

There are definitely plenty of ideas to get any teenager interested in finding ways to make money.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great ideas
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 14, 2014
Verified Purchase
This book does contain quite a few good ideas for teens who want to start earning some cash / start their own business. And just in time for the kids to start planning for summer vacation too! I like the way it describes the type of teen suited to each type of work, very realistic evaluation. It is however very US-centric and while the general ideas hold true in the UK, the details can be very different (maybe you need to publish a UK version?) I did appreciate the safety tips, anything that brings this to the forefront of a teen mind is A Good Thing! but again the level and type of safety consideration varies from location to location.
