![]() uhm, I'm assuming most of the people here are business personal. The question is mainly, *what will they get out of it?* You're 15, not much experience in business (which is more than selling and buying), you sure you will make $? Advice to you is to ask for consignment goods, and get a booth over at the library. i heard its rather cheap, 50-60 a day only.
*if i get branded mean, so be it.. *sobs* ![]() |

gain the experience and save the money for your future business. |

![]() uhm, actually, i dun think i was mean. If you were actually doing business, you need to actually be tuffer than this. people who owe you $ wun wanna pay up. people whom you owe money to will keep calling up...
alternatively, you can be a sort of roving sales person. people will let you have some of their samples, then you can sell to your friends, etc etc... |

![]() Hi, I think if you are looking for seed money, you need to assure potential investors how committed are you to your business. You are only 15 = no experience, no need to study? How are you planning to manage your business if you need to divide your time between school & business? What makes you think that your business will succeed? This is reality, nobody will throw cold hard cash to you & let you play with their hard-earned money.
You need to do your part. Work out a business proposal: Who, What and How? Who are you selling to? What are you selling? How are you selling? How are you sourcing for your merchandise? What's your target sales, profit? How soon do you plan to return the money? What happens if the business does not work out as expected? What's your Plan B, C or even D? You have to think through, plan & prepare for the worst case scenario. Actually if you have good business plan, you don't even need to return the money. You can share profit with your sleeping investor/s. All the best. |
