My nephew’s wife makes jewelry. She’s also the mother of three young children. The middle one – a rambunctious boy of five – wants to help mom, so he started ‘designing’ bracelets. Then, and given his father is in sales this might not be a surprise, he decided to sell them in the neighborhood.
His technique, which my nephew says came from his own imagination? Knock on a door and try one of two approaches:
Ask the neighbor if they’d like to buy one of his unique designs…
or… Tell them he made a bracelet especially for them, put it on their wrist… then say, ‘You owe me one dollar.’
No telling where he’ll start his career in 2039; however, he’s getting an early start down the path toward success.
