5 Businesses Any Teen Can Start This Summer For Extra Cash

Summer vacation is just around the corner, here are some ways for you to make some spending money for the summer if a McJob isn't your scene…


1- Drop-Shipping
Drop shipping is a business where you sell items to people but ship them through the manufacturer.  This saves you any of the hassles of having to keep inventory, having to pay for shipping, or having to handle customer service or returns on defective items.

For example, do you like a certain brand of iPhone case?  Well simply find out the manufacturer's policy on drop shipping (usually on their website).  From there all you have to do is promote and sell the items and input the orders to the manufacturer and wait for your cut to roll in.  That's all!

It's super easy to set up a website promoting the items (there's a million services out there for website building, there's countless ones specifically for setting up online stores, or you can sell them on things like etsy or ebay or amazon if you wanted) or you can sell them to your friends and family!

Careful though, you can make tens of thousands of dollars in a job like this and you may not want to go back to school in September!
