Money For Teens: Start a Local Moving Business

Moving Company/Hired Muscle/Shoveling Snow

If you look reasonably strong and think you can lift heavy household items with a couple other strong friends, advertise yourselves as hired muscle/movers. Simply post flyers advertising your ability to lift heavy objects and to assist in loading trucks and  moving furniture. Find out what some local moving businesses charge per hour or job and undercut them, obviously you may not be able to actually help a family move houses without a truck, but you can help load and unload and just in everyday heavy lifting that some people may require. Split the profits up among your friends, maybe keeping a little extra for yourself because you organized the venture, and continue doing your jobs. Make sure you save some of the money, either to invest or possibly start an official business once you have gained enough experience. Also be prepared to pay for any repairs needed to items you may damage; try to earn your customer’s trust and look presentable when you show up to a job. You may want to stay away from pianos. This is especially effective if you are on a college campus, where packing, unpacking, and moving heavy bags will provide constant business. This job can be employed year round, and if you find you don’t have time yourself, you can delegate the tasks to your friends. If you find that people don’t do much in the Winter, advertise yourselves as snow shovelers, try to target areas that attract an older crowd that requires assistance in such matters.

Money For Teens: Bake Sale

Money For Teen

Have a Bake Sale

This idea may seem childish, but it can make a lot of money, especially when applied to the correct demographic. I met a girl, 16, who raised $8,000 within a year, to pay for herself to go on a trip to Spain. She did so by selling baked goods to skiers at the bottom of the ski mountains in Vermont on the weekends. Basically wherever you can find a large group of people in the same place you can sell baked goods with a pretty high success rate. If you don’t have the time yourself, you may want to higher a baker or a friend to help out and split up the profits. I don’t know much about baking, but if you can spend a few days baking hundreds of goods, and freeze some, you should be able to make some good money.

Pet Sitting / Start A pet sitting business

This one pretty much goes hand-in-hand with babysitting, pet sitting has the potential to be extremely profitable and there is less competition. Ask your friends who have pets if they ever need assistance and offer your service. All you really have to do is walk their dog, maybe feed their cat and just do whatever you want in the general vicinity of the pet. Using the same business model as a babysitting business, pet sitting offers the opportunity to expand into a legitimate business.

Money For Teens: Create An Ebay Business

Money For Teens: Create an Ebay Business

Why limit yourself to selling your own stuff? You can set up a business in which you sell other people’s stuff on ebay for a cut. Go to local businesses and ask them if they need assistance in selling any old equipment that they no longer use, or post flyers advertising your ability to sell on ebay. Take advantage of people’s stupidity thinking that selling on ebay is difficult. And on top of all that, there is no risk involved, the products are not even your own.

Money For Teens: Start a Clothe Printing Business/Screenprinting

Cool Custom apparel for sports teams and individuals are in high demand at all schools and in all towns. (place links for how-to and deigns and such) People love having unique shirts with good sayings on them to show that they are on a certain team. For example, the wrestling team might want to get unofficial shirts for the team that say varsity wrestling for whatever school and then have a wrestling slogan, you could provide those shirts. Starting a custom printing business has huge profit potential as things will usually be ordered in bulk and the prices can be jacked up for customization. Besides a simple hot press the only other requirement is designs, so all you need is an artist. The apparel itself can be ordered after you receive a customer order to reduce risk of overstock. Also if you can successfully brand yourself, you can set up shop at sporting events like wrestling tournaments and make custom shirts, shorts, and sweatshirts for the events and charge a hefty price because there is no other way to get shirts that say “Beast of the East”, except for at that event. Lax pinnies are also taking off in popularity, and if you could get yourself into the business of making custom lacrosse pinnies, which no one does well, you could become extremely successful.

Money Fo Teens: Sell Candy/Gum

Money For Teens: Sell Candy at School

The profit margins for selling candy at school are huge, often 100%. This business can be tackled in many ways, the easiest is selling gum. Everyone loves to have gum, especially for the weekends, so Fridays are the best day to whip out the gum, especially if your school does not allow it to be chewed. The most profitable way to sell gum is each individually wrapped piece. A $1 pack of gum usually contains 12-15 pieces. If you sell each individual piece for $.25 then you make $3+ a pack or you can sell the whole pack for $2. Either way in a big high school you can make $50+ every Friday throughout the school year, thats an extra $1,500 of income. Although, the real jackpot comes Monday through Thursday; not many kids will buy the regular old candy because it frankly is neither essential nor addictive nor interesting. What kids will buy is asian candy. There is a candy called Hi-chew, in both a cheap American version, and a more expensive Japanese version, that is an absolute delight to eat and is almost addictive. Kids will go crazy for this stuff, especially if there isn’t a china town around or Super 88 where they can buy it themselves. Because people will first be skeptical, buy a fair amount, they are sold as individually wrapped chews in packs of 10 or 12 for about $1.50, and give everyone a free 2 pieces. That’s all they need and they will be hooked. I was in 5th grade and I made $80 in a week selling this stuff to a grade of 56 boys. This candy is so good people will literally be willing to pay $10 for a single pack of 12 pieces. You will easily be able to sell this for about $2.50 to $3.00 a pack and make a killing. The american version sells for about $.60 and can be sold for a bout $1.50 to $2.00 and is also very profitable, below I will link to a couple pictures of the japanese product and later a link to where you can buy it.

Money For Teens: Sell Bottled Water

Sell Bottled Water

If your parents rent a house by a crowded beach in the summer and you are stuck there for a while, why not take advantage and make at least $100 a day selling bottled water on the beach. Many beaches have little snack shops that sell bottles of water at ridiculous prices, sometimes up to $3, depending where you are. You can buy 24 packs of poland springs water for $6, that’s $0.25 a bottle. You can then sell each bottle for $1 or $2 depending on the competition and the temperature (don’t sell for $1.50 cause then you deal with quarters). At a busy beach there may be thousands of people loaded together baking in the sun, thirsty as ever, but they don’t want to get up to go get a drink. However, if you come around offering ice cold water out of a nice cooler, at a reasonable price, chances are high that a thirsty person will pay. You can make up deals like 2 for $3 or make signs that read something like “don’t get dehydrated”, anything to get people to buy your water as you walk around. Just don’t be annoying and wake up sleeping people. I’m not sure how strictly legal this is, but you should be able to get away with it no problem. Now, if you hit up the beach 3 days a week and you sell 100 bottles each of those days, you’re probably going to be making somewhere between $75 and $175 a day, which becomes between $225 and $525 a week, which is between $2250 and $5250 for the summer if you work 10 weeks, only 3 days a week. That is pretty good money and you get to get a nice tan and probably meet a lot of people. And if you live in a hot, dry area year round, you can apply to ever weekend. Before you go and buy a lot of water though, you might want to test the market, buying maybe 1 pack and see how well it sells. All you will need is the water, a place to store a lot of it, a place to buy the water like BJ’s or Amazon, a couple coolers, and a lot of ice.

Money For Teens: Sell Digital Photos

Sell Digital Photos

If you have photography skills, that being a slight knowledge/eye for composition and lighting you may be able to sell your digital photos on the web. The key to success in this business is knowing how to take good stock photographs. You may ask, “What is stock photography?”. The simplest answer is, photography that can be used for any type of marketing, whether it be for advertising agencies, magazines, websites, ads, or brochure. Thus the marketer licenses your photo and pays you a commission rather than hiring a professional. There are a few rules to this trade, they are as follows: no pictures of logos or copyrighted material, pictures of recognizable people must come with a release form, and regular touristy pictures are not what sells. I will list for you some reputable stock agencies and some e-books explaining more in depth the process of this trade, but I promise you, done well this can be very profitable, thousands of dollars a month profitable.

This gap creates an opportunity for you to ask businesses to be their “social networking expert” and get paid to advertise on facebook and twitter. You can do this job at home for numerous different businesses.

Money For Teens: Washing Windows

Washing Windows


Washing windows is a great business for those of you who live in an area where the houses are close together. Many people go through their lives with really dirty windows and just never think about getting them cleaned, but if you go door to door offering to clean windows cheaply for them you could get a lot of business. I would go out one day with a clipboard, going from house to house trying to sell your service, and when someone accepts, inspect their windows, write down their phone number, and work out a price, then return on a later date with your equipment. You can also, of course, post flyers advertising your service. Reasonable sized houses pay around $1500 for a professional job covering top and bottom floor, so with a ladder you can charge like $500 for your amateur service and hire a couple friends to help. Maybe even start your own business.
