My Teenager Will NOT Flip Burgers. She’ll Start This Business Instead

One of these days my 13-year-old is going to need to start saving for a car.

I told her: you can work toward that car with a $7.25 burger-flipping job, or you can start a business, build a portfolio, and position yourself for college (she’s going into a technical field that requires it).

She was intrigued.

I showed her how she and I (and eventually, she alone) can build the kind of basic websites a local business needs. And there are tons of businesses without one.

They’re at risk of becoming invisible.

They pay hundreds of dollars to be in the Yellow Pages, which nobody uses anymore.

Now, when we drive around town, Regina points out businesses and wonders which ones have websites.

I know some web design people will be horrified: “Woods,” they’ll say, “you need all kinds of technical know-how to create whiz-bang websites!”

Local businesses don’t need and shouldn’t want whiz-bang websites. They need something simple and attractive. That’s what Regina and I will do.

You know these businesses need websites, and you know nobody else is approaching them with an offer to build one.

This is the kind of situation that should shout OPPORTUNITY at you. This is your future side business.

That future begins after our how-to workshop. Sign up:
