I made $600 a day as a teenage entrepreneur and what's crazy is I
haven't seen anyone mentioned this anywhere else. Don't get me wrong,
you can get a normal job and there's nothing wrong with that. But if you don't want to
be limited and how much money you can make from your hourly pay and you don't
mind putting in the extra effort and work, then this video is for you.
With hourly paying jobs, you could be the hardest worker there and your hourly pay
won't go up for the extra effort. With this, your effort will directly affect
how much money you make and how big your business gets. Just like it does for me
with my business Cookie Munchers. Oh and if you're new to my channel, welcome to KICKINwithCASSIE!
I'm going to give you six ideas make money as an entrepreneur.
But the last one is going to be the one that personally made me $600 a day as a
teenage entrepreneur. Car Detailing. So I actually have a friend in college who
started a car detailing business. It became super successful to the point
that he's still doing it after college. He's making huge money from something
that seems so simple. You can start off by cleaning the inside of cars yourself,
and then when you get good at it and build up a reputation, you can start
hiring employees and then you can split the money they make when you're not even
working! The key to this is to travel to your customers and do their cars in
their driveways. This is a very in demand service because most people do not want
to drive all the way to a car wash or a car detailing place to get it done.
They can hire someone like you or your employees to go directly to them and if you
show them good service, they will pay you! Number Two. Nannying.
People need trustworthy people to watch their children and there's two ways to get
into this. You can apply to jobs on various websites like sitter.com and
care.com. When you build up a reputation with a few parents then you
can expand because parents know parents. Or if you know enough parents that will
review you, then you can just automatically make a website and a
Facebook page, get some reviews on there, and get started. So get some reviews on
there and market around your town. And make sure you have references
if you go this option. This can make about thirteen to seventeen
dollars an hour, which isn't bad at all! Number Three. Dog Watching. This is also
very in demand because once word spreads about your trustworthy dog service, you
will get a lot of business. I would recommend going to the person's house to
let their dog out because people are much more comfortable when you come to
their house then when they leave their dog in a stranger's house. Also if you're
below 18 make sure your parents approve of the person that you are watching
their dog. This can make twenty-five to fifty dollars a day, and more if it's
overnight and you send someone in your place once you have employees.
And then you just get a cut of what they're making, then you're making money
without leaving your house. Number Four. Junk Removal. You need some muscles to
get this one started. A lot of people hate cleaning their junk it's just
something that they will pay for. But you will need a truck to make this one
happen and you will need a crew to help you haul away everything that they don't
want. The low cost someone will pay you to do something like this would be about
seventy dollars and it goes all the way up to seven hundred. What's cool about this
businesses is you'll often have to haul away things like couches, mattresses, tables,
and other perfectly working items. These items are all worth money! Take them away
and sell them on Craigslist and bam you have two streams of income right there!
Lawn Service. You can make a lot of money with this one. The more services you
expand to, the bigger the possibilities. I would suggest starting off with just lawn
mowing and trimming and then expanding to things like chemicals and other
possibilities. People are making anywhere between five
thousand and fifty thousand in their first year and then it can expand over
two hundred thousand in the first few years. And being younger you have an advantage.
Because there's many people who want to help you get your start and they'll hire you
to do their lawn. The downsides of this market is it is very competitive so you
might have to start with lower rates or start off with family and friends until
you get more reviews on your page and really get the business up and running.
So now we're on to Number Six. The one that made me $600 a day. Face Painting
and Costume Entertainer. Now bear with me. I know this sounds crazy but that's why
a lot of people don't do it! Now when I first started doing this I
had no artistic ability at all. But I taught myself by practicing on friends
and I taught myself a few designs that I would offer at various events.
I brought a paper to most these events that had a bunch of examples that I
found online where I could copy them if need be. So if you have any sort of
artistic ability at all, I would highly suggest taking up face painting. So how
does it work? I would go to my customers houses or various venues. This gig
usually only takes one to maybe two hours max. And you make sixty to ninety
dollars in that time period. Now if you want to make more money, or are a little bit
more ambitious, also be a costume character. Now the issue of being a
costume character is the startup cost is higher. You need more money to make more money.
But if you're face painting business is doing well then it is
definitely worth expanding to. Not to mention you also have to be okay with
dressing up as characters such as Mickey Mouse, Spongebob, princesses, and Dora the
Explorer. So what I would do is I would just play those characters. The
princess didn't have the face mask. Or if I did a costume character, i'd be wearing
a gigantic head and I would be dancing around playing games with the children
usually only for anywhere between fifteen to thirty minutes.
Now when you see people at amusement parks doing that same exact job, they
aren't being paid near what that job is worth. When you see people doing this at
amusement parks they're usually only being paid eight to nine dollars an hour
to run around dance around wave take pictures with you. But if you have your
own business doing this and you are traveling to birthday parties and other
private events, you're getting a hundred to two hundred twenty-five dollars for
anywhere between thirty minutes to an hour of your time. And if you couple it
with a face painting package you will be highly competitive and what's even
better it will usually tip you anywhere between 10 and 50 dollars. When I was
doing just two to three gigs in a day, I was making four to six hundred dollars
easy. And when you really start hiring people, you can make a lot more than that
very easily. When I first started, I was working for someone else and they had a
bigger company than I ever built. Because then I went to college
and I was in a new location. I would have had to start back from the
beginning. So when I first started they were hiring people like me to go in and
do the gigs. They were paying me as an employee anywhere between fifty to a
hundred dollars for the hour and they were taking the other half of money.
So we're basically splitting the cost in half. I got to keep half of it and they
got to keep half of it. Just because it was their business and they've been
doing the marketing up until this point. So there were some days they'd have me,
someone else, and them doing a bunch of parties in a day. I couldn't even imagine
how much they were making! So I would highly suggest just starting with just
yourself and then eventually starting to hire more people and building it out. But
only hire people you trust. This is key. Because they can make or break your
business. In the world of children and parents, word gets around fast whether
it's really good or really bad. Another key to the face painting for this
business is you have to have good quality face paints.Because if you don't,
they will be able to tell, and your service will not look as professional as
it should. So in the description box below I'm going to put a link to the
face paint I used so you guys don't make the wrong mistake. So now all of these
ideas have pretty similar marketing techniques. I would definitely suggest
making flyers and putting them around your town. Your local grocery store
probably has a place you can paste them up. I would also look into getting into
the local church bulletin. See if your town has Facebook groups where you can also
post about your newly found business. Be careful those posts don't sound like an
advertisement and more like a story of a young entrepreneur. I would even
recommend putting on the back or real bottom of your flyer, a little bit about
yourself and your story so that people feel more connected to you and feel like
they're on a more personal level. Just keep in mind people connect more with
stories than advertisements. Once you get it going, ask your customers to review
you on Facebook, so you can really get your business growing faster! Now if these are
way too much for you and you're like a Cassie, I do not think I can start a
business on this level! I just wanted some quick cash that I could have right
now and not really have to build anything up, then my suggestion would be
using Opinion Outpost. The potential of how much money you will make will be a
lot smaller but it is fast cash if you just need it right now. Basically what it
is, is you giving your opinions on shows and products
and when you're done with the surveys, they show you exactly
how much you have been making in your account. So I'll put that link in the
description box below as well but as I said it is not a get rich scheme. It is
just quick fast money if you need it right now. It will not grow to the level
of these other options. So I hope this post is helpful to you guys! If you guys
