Jobs For 15 Year Olds

So, you can’t find or get any “real” jobs for 15 year olds and that means you are thinking of starting your own side business. But no matter what type of kids business you want to start, YOU NEED TO GET CUSTOMERS! One way of doing that is by using fliers and placing them in places where real potential customers will see them.

Flyers can be made for your baby sitting business, pet sitting business, lawn mowing business, or any other type of money making endeavor you want to try your hand at. Your flyer should have some personality and tell as much about you as it can. You need to advertise yourself and let people immediately know why you are the PERFECT person to help them with whatever service it is you provide. 

If you are wanting to take care of pets while people are away, your flier should cover what experience you have with animals and briefly go over the different things you can do (see flyer example below). If you are wanting to baby sit you should list your rates, explain where you live and where you can go, and also give the reader a good reason to call you. For any flyer you put up you need to be creative and SELL YOURSELF confidently without being too pushy.

DO WORK and if you can’t make one yourself on your computer, ask your parents to help you make one. It can be a fun project and together you can come up with an advertisement that, placed in the right places, will get your business off the ground!
