I started my first business when I was 10, selling customised xbox 360 controllers. Ever since then I have loved the concept of owning my own business. From there I went on to starting my own clothing brand (when I was 12) and with help from my parents, I was able to turn over £300 ish profit in the first 2months. This may not seem much but the 12 year old me was very happy with this. I carried on with the brand for a year making just over £1000 but then I decided to stop and try something new. When I was almost 14 I started dropshipping. This is where I made some money. In the first 6months I made over £2k purely through advertisement. I had 3 different shopify businesses all running at once and I literally did nothing but advertise.

Anywho, I am now 17 and I still have those shopify accounts however I do not really advertise them and so I am not making much money off of them now.

I currently own a company called Arctic Yogurt. We have 2 shops in Colchester, England and I am currently making around £3300-£3700 profit a month. I have just opened my 2nd shop and so that is why my profit is so low at the moment! I know that I will always be looking for new business ventures however I am really hoping this company will take off!

I read something that we did like 30 million in sales or something last year so I guess it's going good. But idk where all that money is cause I'm poor af

Thought about opening a restaurant at one point. But I know it would be a disaster.

I own and operate a landscape business. Been doing it since I was 3 years old with my dad. Always liked it. I also do welding on the side. (Repairing and making trailers).

Someday I hope to own my own Graphics Design/Web Development Company. Even if it's not big, would still be amazing to be able to do work for people all over the world. Currently, I partially own my familys restaurant.
