16 year old Alistair Boyd is competing for the national Ambition AXA award in the UK this year, given to exceptional young entrepreneurs. How did he earn a spot in this prestigious competition? Alistair designed a travel kit especially for kids. The kit includes age-appropriate guides to the language and cultures of various countries, perfect for traveling kids. His idea has interested travel companies across the UK as a great product for their businesses. If he wins the competition, Alistair would be awarded around $63,000 to launch his product, and begin a micro business. Keep an eye on Alistair; we could soon see his product turned into a business!

Designed a product like Alistair? Create a micro business to launch that product with the help of my book, Starting a Micro Business!

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.
