Businesses Where Teens Earn Money

June 16, 2010 in Home based business

Teens earn money on the internet and through the many jobs they find in their local communities. The business world as we know it has changed. It is no longer dominated by the wealthy who have thousands of dollars that were once needed to invest in a business opportunity. Opportunities are everywhere, on and off the internet, for teens to earn some extra cash for all the things they need for everyday life.

Here are some ways for the many make money teens out there that need some help and advice.

1. Get Paid To Take Surveys – Every year big companies pay millions of dollars for advertising and research. A lot of the research money goes out to individuals who take surveys. These surveys are used to determine what the most effective advertising will be for a product or service that a business is trying to market.

Survey companies are everywhere on the net. Some are free to join and others require a usually small investment, somewhere around $25.00 to get started. Be sure that whatever survey companies you sign up with have a large business base so there will be a lot of surveys for you to take.

2. Build Your Own Website Or Blog – If you have a product to sell or know of somebody who does, why not start your own website or blog. Once you learn the skills that are necessary to market your website or blog you will be able to earn a nice income. And unlike an affiliate program where you earn a certain percentage of what you sell; you will be able to pocket all the profits.

Google’s Blogger, located at blogger.com, is an easy way to start your own blog, and it is free. Blogging is an internet marketing phenomenon that most businesses use to get the word out about what they are selling and it is a great way to establish yourself as an expert in the area of your choice.

3. Start Your Own Home Business – If you consider yourself a true entrepreneur, why not start a small business from your home. There are jobs that we have all done as teenagers at one time or another to earn some extra money. Jobs or chores such as baby sitting, mowing yards, washing cars and tutoring are just a few of the things I used to do as a teen to earn some stepping out money.

These jobs may not be the most glamorous but remember you are trying to earn enough money to get yourself out of the house Friday and or Saturday night without hitting up Mom and Dad for some cash.

These are just a few ideas about how teens earn money in today’s business world. Some of the ideas I have provided are old and some are new. Think about what you would like to do and take some form of action. I wish you the best of success, your friend, Tim Stokes.

All of these work at home job ideas will require some help or involvement from either parent. Here are seven online job ideas for teens looking to expand their wings and or to explore their entrepreneurial side.

1. Surveys and focus groups are simple, fun and one of the easiest things to do. It doesn’t require any experience, just a teenager’s opinion. The types of surveys vary from topics about video games, movies, fashion, music, and other teen interests. Your teen may be compensated with money, Amazon or retail gift certificates, or points redeemable for cash or products. Signing up is always free; don’t ever pay! Monetary payments are usually paid out to a PayPal account or by cheque.

2. Many teens have their own blogs and they can use it as a way to promote their affiliate programs or get referrals from survey companies they have joined. They can sign up with Clickbank, a marketplace with merchants who offer digital products for people to sell. These commissions are set anywhere from 1% to 75%. LinkShare and Commission Junction are other affiliate marketplaces.

3. If one or both parents have their own home business, you can hire your teenager and delegate some of the monotonous and time consuming tasks. These simple tasks could be typing and printing out address labels, submitting articles to article directories, link checking and so forth. Parents can also help their teenager get the word out to others who may have limited budgets, but need to outsource some work.

4. Some kids like to follow in their parents’ footsteps, so if your teenager is interested in owning their own home business, you as a parent will have to be a co-signer.

5. Teens are very computer literate and savvy. Many are also artistic and creative. Becoming a web designer is a lucrative and rewarding career. Your teenager could be designing websites, creating blog templates, designing Twitter and MySpace backgrounds, buttons, logos etc. for anyone who can’t or don’t know how to do it themselves.

6. Open a lemonade stand; not a traditional one anyway. At Lemonade.com your teen can create an e-commerce online lemonade stand by recommending products that they love like music, sports, clothing, food, movies, video/electronic games and more.
