Frequently asked questions

How many businesses will you accept?
We will accept up to 40 businesses.

Where should I begin?
Start with our resources page. Read inspiring stories about other young entrepreneurs and play games to hone your business skills.

How do I apply? Can I apply as part of a group?
Application must be submitted online. Please submit one application for each business. Children working as a group should submit one application that includes each child’s information. No more than 3 participants per business.

What is on the application?
The application asks kids to think through some simple, but important elements of their business:

  • What product or service do you plan to sell?
  • What price will you charge for each product/service? How much will each product/service cost you?
  • How will you pay for your startup costs? If someone is helping you with your startup costs, how will you pay that person back?
  • How will you advertise/market your business before the fair? 
  • At the end of the fair, how will you determine if your business was a success? 

What if someone else has the same business idea?  
Two cupcake businesses? Not a problem. In general, we will let market forces play out, though we will let later entries know if another applicant has a similar idea so the later entrant can decide what to do.

How Will the Fair Be Set Up?

The 805 Children’s Business Fair will take place on a farm, providing a beautiful outdoor setting for young entrepreneurs to showcase their businesses. This will be a tented outdoor event with individual booths for each vendor.

Vendor Setup Details:
 • Vendors must bring their own tent, table, and chairs.
 • Booth spaces will be assigned upon arrival.
 • We cannot accommodate businesses requiring electricity—please plan accordingly. If you require a generator at your booth please contact us for prior approval. 

 • Setup and breakdown times will be provided closer to the event date.
 • The fair will take place on natural terrain—please ensure your setup is secure for outdoor conditions.

We encourage vendors to bring signage, displays, and anything else that enhances their booth while keeping the farm setting in mind.




What are the rules?
This event is designed to give children the experience of selling a product or service. If a parent is found selling or promoting a child’s product or service, their child’s business will be disqualified from the competition.

Parents of younger children may sit in the booth, but the children should be responsible for set up, customer interaction, and sales.

Parents may help their child fill out the application, but we expect the children to do as much as possible by themselves.
