I was contacted by a TV producer from PBS’s Biz Kid$. She is looking for teenage entrepreneurs to showcase on the show. If you are reading this blog, she wants your story!
Here’s what she wrote:
Hi Carol,
I came across your website while researching stories about young entrepreneurs. I am a TV producer currently producing Biz Kid$ – an award-winning PBS series where kids teach kids about money and business. The series helps young people understand the basics of making and managing money, and how to start their own business.
Biz Kid$ is produced by the creators of Bill Nye the Science Guy and has aired on over 90% of PBS stations, reaching over 115 million US households.
Biz Kid$ includes short profiles of young entrepreneurs from across the country. We are always looking for interesting business stories about young business owners. I would love to enlist your help in reaching out to teen entrepreneurs, and possibly showcase their business stories on Biz Kid$.
Please visit our website for more information: www.bizkids.com. I look forward to hearing from you.
Regards
–

So can you help Ms. Singru? Are you a teenager with a business? PBS might put you on their show.
Contact her directly or email me and I’ll forward your story to her. Be sure to tell me if you get picked for the show!
Go check out an episode (or several) now. You’ll learn a lot and maybe get encouraged by what other teenagers have done.
