10 Micro Tips for Micro Businesses

Countdown to Starting a Micro Business ebook launch

Day 1: 10 days until the release of Starting a Micro Business ebook by Carol Topp, CPA

on

Saturday, May 1, 2010

As we count down to the launch of Starting a Micro Business, I am going to share tips on starting a micro business.

Today’s tip: Set a goal

A goal for a business can be financial or personal. Maybe you want to try out running a business to see if it could be your future career.

Meghan taught violin lessons to children when she was a teenager. She loved playing violin and enjoyed teaching so much that she decided to study violin in college. Running her micro business helped her find her future career.

Some micro owners have a specific financial goal for their business. Perhaps it is to buy a car, pay the insurance and fill it with gas. Many students run a micro business to help pay for a hobby, a trip or college, while others feed a love for music, iTunes or text messages.

Yara was homeschooled and started a micro business offering babysitting during the day. Her goal for the micro business was to pay for her horseback riding lessons.

Linnea has a goal to visit her homeland of China and started a micro business making and selling jewelry to save up for her trip.

Some micro business owners see their businesses as a launching point for another business. They take what they learned from running a micro and start another business, adding to their knowledge as they go.

Be sure to visit MicroBusinessForTeens.com on Saturday, May 1, 2010 to order your copy of Starting a Micro Business.

For one week, May 3-10, 2010, I will be offering a special bundle package.

From a parent

Thank you for your e-book on teen micro businesses. Your valuable experience and wealth of knowledge is vast.

Your presentations at Cincinnati homeschool conferences and sharing with us over the years have benefited us well.

I can hardly believe we are at this point in our life-and here he is a young man ready to try his fortune with the world.
