Frequently asked questions
The Young Entrepreneur Business Fair inspires kids to discover their inner entrepreneur, This one-day market gives kids the opportunity to showcase their very own businesses.
Use the Facebook page to get more information and tips and tricks for your business.
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.
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?
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.
The fair will be an indoor/outdoor event. You will be allowed to bring a 6 ft table
This event is designed to give kids the experience of selling a product or service.
Parents of younger kids may sit in the booth, but the kids should be responsible for set up, customer interaction, and sales. We expect the kids to do as much as possible by themselves.
