At Biz in a Boxx we try to support our young entrepreneurs as much as possible. So many of them keep us informed on our “contact us” page as to how their businesses are doing.

Last week my beloved computer passed away. As I looked at my friend of five years with whom I interacted every day I felt so frustrated. Not only did I need to get a replacement , I needed to get all that info transferred from old to new. No way was I capable of doing that!

I contacted Kevin of Teen Tech to set up my new computer. As I sat in my chair watching a 15 year old set up my new computer I was truly amazed. I have trouble doing anything out of the ordinary, and this kid moved so fast and so confidently that the computer was up and running with all the “stuff” on it that I needed in a couple of hours.

Now Biz in a Boxx did not teach Kevin how to use a computer, but it did teach him what to do with his skills and how to profit from them. Kevin found a niche. He caters to Seniors with computer issues. He advertises in the bulletin board at the local Senior Center and at a couple of the retirement homes in the area. How smart is that? Kevin started his own business because he could not get a summer job. He wants to earn money to buy a car when he turns 16.

What this is all leading to is that kids are not too young to start a business. They have great ideas, and so many have great skills like Kevin. They just need the “know how” to get started, and that’s why Biz in a Boxx was created.

You know, after my Teen Tech experience I was so proud to be a part of this company.
