    Smile HI from a 15 yr old entrepreneur.

    Hi. I am 15 years old and have 2 businesses. One is selling sweets and chocolate at school and the other is transferring videos, audio tapes and other things like that onto DVD or CD. They're both doing pretty well at the moment. I currently live in Spain but used to live in England and as my dad still works there and comes back at the weekends I started to ask him for english sweets and chocolate as it is hard to get out here and as most of the people at my school are English they missed it.

    This is just a start as these problaly aren't seen as proper businesses in some peoples minds but to me they are. But I'm glad to have found this site so that I can see what other entrepeneurs do and how I can one day follow in thier footsteps.
    I've written an article on my story and if anyone can be bothered to read it then thanks and if u can tell me what you think and how I could improve.

    Thumbs up

    Good job, keep it up! With time you'll naturally see bigger and better ways to improve if you constantly seek new information and different ways to get wealthier. What you have is that natural entrepreneural gene, where you make money out of nothing

    Welcome!

    In my book, any money making opportunity is proper business as long as it is not unethical

    Your attitude will take you far, so keep it up!

    PS: I'm interested in hearing about your 2nd business where you transfer digital items onto CD & DVD, particularly what kinds of digital goods. Is this a service you provide to clients at their request?

    Thanks for the support the benchmark society. My second business is based in Spain and so i advertise in the local newspapers and have had some good return from it. Recently for example a business asked for me to transfer 100 vidoes onto DVD for them. I will send you a personall messege with more information and what you need to do it if u want.
