What can you sell to a teenager. How to make money quickly on the Internet for a teenager: some interesting options

Everyone can earn on the Internet, whether you are at least 13 years old, at least 15, at least 35. It all depends on your skills, typing speed, literacy, cunning and many other factors. Just because you're underage doesn't mean you can't earn. I knew some people who at the age of 16-17 earned more than many adults in the regions of Russia.

And in this article I want to analyze how a teenager of 13-16 years old can make money on the Internet without investments and with investments. It is quite possible for a teenager to earn money on the Internet, you just need to know how to do it 🙂 And I will tell you.

But first I want to answer your questions.

How much can a teenager earn on the Internet

How much do you think a teenager of age, say, from 13 to 16 years old can earn on the Internet?

Looking ahead, I will say right away that at the age of 15, I earned a maximum of 15,000 rubles a month, while spending about 2-3 hours a day. How it was, I will tell later in the article. Roughly speaking, if I spent a full time as at an official job (8 hours), I would be able to earn about 40-50 thousand rubles a month.

In my personal experience(I tried many ways to make money on the Internet) anyone, including a teenager, can easily earn from 10 thousand rubles a month and not spend a lot of time on it, and with due diligence and patience, you can earn from 20 thousand or more - here it all depends on your ingenuity, skills and abilities.

Ways to make money online for teenagers

Naturally, we will analyze ways to make money on the Internet for teenagers, schoolchildren and minors. If you are one of them, then yes, you can earn too. Just I will tell you about my method, with the help of which I earned 15 tr at the age of 15. per month.

So, the best working ways to earn:

Earnings on the exchange of articles

It was on the stock exchange that I earned in my adolescence. Specifically, I made money on the eTXT exchange. An article exchange is a kind of market where you can sell a unique article(unique means not copied, but written personally or rewritten in your own words from other sources, which is called rewriting).

Do you think that you have never done this? And here is the lie. You probably copied homework and you know what it means to “rewrite, but in your own words.” This is called rewriting. This creates the illusion that this text is yours, unique, but in fact you are writing the same thing, but in different words. Such a text can also be easily sold, it is in demand on the article exchanges.

1. register;
2. looking for free orders, apply;
3. you are accepted as a performer;
4. write an article on the instructions of the customer;
5. voila, you completed the order and earned some money!

Another option (on reselling articles):

1. buy several articles that are already on sale (let's say you spent 500 rubles);
2. put them up for sale again 2 times more expensive and wait until they are bought;
3. sell over time for 1000 rubles;
4. voila, you have earned 500 rubles!

Third option (one of the best):

1. choose a topic that you understand (eg sports, design, mathematics, Russian language, history…);
2. write various articles on these topics;
3. put up for sale in your account and sell;
4. voila, you make money selling your articles!

When I was just starting to earn money, I first wrote all the articles myself. I wrote articles on sports nutrition, on the construction of baths and garages (although I didn’t rummage about this at all even now). At first I sold articles for a ridiculous 10-20 rubles, and then I got involved and realized that I could earn more.

Then I started investing, that is, to buy other people's articles and sell them at a higher price, plus he wrote his own articles. So I got about 10-15 tr. per month.

The most popular article exchanges are eTXT, Advego and Text. I made money on the first one.

Earnings on freelance exchanges

Despite the fact that freelancing is supposedly the concept of "adults" and teenagers there is little, you can still make money on freelancing quite easily. Freelancing is also something like a market where customers and performers meet.. Customers need you to do some work online, and you do it.

Tasks can be completely different and in any case you will find something for your skills. The most important rule in this is not to be afraid and try to start at least with something. Everyone always starts from the bottom, don't forget that! You can refuse and never understand how people make money on the Internet, or you can slowly and steadily dive into all this specifics and earn good money in the future.

I was on the freelance exchange several times and earned about 5 tr. in 10 days. At the same time, I spent more time looking for work than on the job itself, that is, I earned these 5 thousand in about 10 hours of work. Roughly speaking, if I initially had a task, I would have earned these 5 thousand in one or two days.

The thing about freelancing is that rating means a lot, and if you are a beginner, then you will have to work at low rates first. But when you get a rating, it will be much easier for you to find very profitable projects and earn good money. Freelance specialists earn from 100 tr. per month.

The most common freelance exchanges are Kwork, FL.RU and Freelance. I worked for KWORK. By the way, now I already order freelance services, but do not perform them 🙂

Earnings for a teenager on Yandex.Toloka

Any teenager can make money on the official service for small earnings from Yandex called Yandex.Toloka.

Yandex.Toloka is a service that offers you to earn little money for completing small and simple tasks (evaluate the site, choose the right picture, etc.). As far as I know, the only disadvantage of this method is that there are not always many tasks, and sometimes they simply do not exist. At least once I tried to start earning money there, and I didn’t succeed. But that was 3 years ago - try it, maybe you will succeed!

Earnings on maintaining VKontakte groups

I will tell you one way to make money on the administration of VKontakte groups, which you are unlikely to find anywhere else. Any teenager can make money on VKontakte groups, even if he does not have one! Now I'll tell you how.

So what did I do? I was looking for abandoned VKontakte groups (there were no new posts for at least 5 days) and with a large audience (from 100 tons of subscribers) and wrote to the group contacts with a proposal to take the group into development (become an administrator and post articles):

If the creator of the group agrees and makes you an administrator, then you start posting content, resurrecting the group, and then offer the administrator to work there on a permanent basis for 30-50% of the income of this group- in 95% of cases, the administrator will agree, since most likely he does not care about the group at all and he will only be glad that you work there.

In general, I came out on income in groups of about 5 tr. per month (while working for about half an hour a day). After about a year I got tired, that is managed to earn about 50-60 thousand.

These were three the best way fast and stable earnings on the Internet for a teenager. In principle, they are suitable not only for schoolchildren and students, but in general for everyone.

Contact me for a job

Another way to make money for a teenager is to write to me using my contacts and I will try to find you a job:

• mail: [email protected]
• In contact with: https://vk.com/new.chance

In any case, I can offer some of you a job in my projects with a stable salary.

What you will never earn

I want to immediately warn you and tell you “money ways” that you will NEVER make money from. These include:

• earnings on entering captcha;
• clicks;
• paid tasks in boxes;
• watching videos for money;
• filling out questionnaires, surveys;
• reading letters for money;
• paid surfing on the Internet;
• writing reviews;
• casino, bets;
• pyramids, mmm;
• financial games (money games, games with money withdrawal).

here is an example of such a "lure" (actually a scammer)

I don’t know for sure whether this whole list is or not, this is the first thing that came to mind. On this you will NEVER earn more than 1000 rubles per month. And if you earn, then once or twice a maximum. The threshold for each of these types of earnings is 2-3 thousand per month with daily work of 4-5 hours. This is a disrespect for your time and work.

According to the current labor law, only an adult citizen can officially get a job that does not even require any qualification. But many parents think that earlier child understands how money is obtained, the more benefit it will bring to him. Plus, most teens today are looking to self-employment in order to provide for their own needs that go beyond the necessary - fashionable clothes, a modern gadget, an unusual vacation, etc. For high school students, finding a part-time job is not a serious problem. But earning money for a teenager of 12 is much more difficult than for a 15-year-old. Let's try to figure out what are the options for earning money for this age category.

Where can a teenager find a formal job?

It does not make sense for a 12-year-old schoolboy to apply to the labor exchange or browse sites with vacancies - there will be no offers for his age. According to Labor Code RF, organizations can employ persons who have reached the age of 14. And even in this case, there are a number of limitations:

• the vacancy must be in the category of light work;
• work should not be related to money;
• a working day can be a maximum of 4 hours;
• Written consent from parents or guardians is required.

Why is a job opportunity available from the age of 14? Because at this age, a teenager already receives a passport, and an employment contract can be concluded with him. A twelve-year-old student does not have any documents, and it is impossible to bring him to justice under the law. All this causes certain difficulties for employers. So there are practically no chances to get a job in any organization, even in a neighboring hairdresser's, having come there "from the street", for a 12-year-old girl. But fortunately, the ways of earning money are not limited to official employment.

How to make money for a 12 year old student

Teenagers who do not yet have a passport can earn money in the following ways:

• the provision of paid services to residents of their home, yard, microdistrict;
• informal part-time work in small organizations near the house;
• collection of recyclables;
• participation in Internet projects for earnings;
• income from needlework.

Let's take a closer look at each of the methods below.

Important! Any attempts at employment and earnings of a teenager must be controlled by parents, and best of all, with their help.

Earnings on the provision of services

In Europe and the USA, part-time work for teenagers on small assignments is a completely normal practice. Even in literature and movies you can find a lot of confirmation of this fact. Schoolchildren earn extra money delivering mail, delivering small loads, mowing lawns, babysitting, etc. In Russia, this practice is not yet so widespread, but still, it is present.

A teenager of 12 years old may well perform simple work, for example:

• help in the garden or at the dacha;
• shopping and grocery delivery;
• dog walking;
• babysitting younger age;
• washing cars;
• courier work, etc.

A student can search for clients for such services in two ways - using word of mouth or through ads. If you live in the private sector, the child can simply go around all the neighbors on the street / block and offer their services. For residents of apartment buildings, it will be more convenient to stick ads with a list of possible works at the entrances and stops within the microdistrict.

Tip: Ads should be written by hand and indicate the age of the child in them - this will cause more trust and sympathy among potential customers.

Naturally, all this should take place under the supervision of parents. They can (and even should) help with the search for clients by recommending the child to their neighbors and acquaintances. And, of course, every order received from outside should be monitored - go with a teenager to the first meeting with the employer to make sure the offer is safe and there is no fraud.

Important! negotiate with customers in such a way that the teenager is paid money immediately after each completed task. This will keep the child interested in work, and in addition, protect him from fraud.

Informal part-time work in organizations

In any microdistrict there are many small offices that need the services of a janitor, a janitor, a courier for short distances, or an assistant to carry out small assignments. A teenager of 12-13 years old can cope with such work. But to get it, you need the help of parents.

Ideally, to begin with, walk through potential employers followed by an adult. Employees of the organization are more likely to take the parent seriously than the student. First of all, contact those offices (shops, hairdressers, car services, etc.) where you are already known as a client - it will be easier to negotiate with them. Explain the situation, describe the child's abilities, and, if possible, arrange an interview. Pay attention to private organizations - they definitely won’t take a student to a chain store or a beauty salon.

Important! It is better to send a teenager to the interview itself - this will teach him to take the job offered more seriously and add points to him in the eyes of a potential employer.

Recycling work

Soviet schoolchildren have always had a completely legal opportunity to work part-time at the delivery of glass containers. If you caught those times, then remember that any drink, from milk to mineral water, was sold in glass bottles, which were accepted for return in stores, paying a certain amount for each. Accordingly, glass containers suitable for delivery could be found in any home. And this process was perceived quite normally, it acquired a touch of marginality only after perestroika.

However, recycling offices still exist. And they accept not only glass containers, but also waste paper, scrap metal, and non-ferrous metals. In addition, the delivery of things for recycling in Lately has become fashionable again, with the development of the trend of caring for the environment. If there is a collection point for glass containers / waste paper / other secondary raw materials in your area, you can offer your student to earn extra money with his help. Of course, collecting bottles and scrap metal is not a suitable way to make money at the age of 12 for a girl, but for boys it is quite suitable.

Earnings on needlework

Many students are interested various types creativity - drawings, jewelry making, beading, knitting, wood carving, etc. If the work of a teenager is done neatly and beautifully, he may well make money on their sale. School fairs, your own page on the social network, or just a group of friends and classmates can become a trading platform. By the way, parents can help here too by showing their child's products to their friends and work colleagues.

Tip: in addition to selling works, a teenager can sell materials for creativity or do simple workshops on any stage of creativity and make money selling them.

How to make money for a student of 12 years on the Internet

Quite attractive, from the point of view of a teenager, is earnings on the Internet. It is in this area that strict control of parents is necessary, at least at first, and somewhere their participation. Not every banner that promises instant profit on the network leads to a trustworthy site. The main task of parents is to help a teenager to weed out obviously fraudulent projects, as well as to teach the basics of cyber security so as not to put viruses on him.

As methods of network earnings for schoolchildren of 12 years old, the most suitable are:

• boxes - sites, which pay money for viewing ads;
• wrapping systems– sites where certain actions are paid for in social networks;
• solving control and writing essays to order;
• sale of items from online games.

The first two methods are suitable for almost everyone, regardless of age, since they only need a computer and a social network account. But there is little money to be made on such sites. One view of an advertising link costs about three kopecks, actions in social networks - from 10 to 25 kopecks.

To sell statuses and gifts from online games, a teenager will have to spend a lot of time in the game itself. Not every parent seems to agree to this. However, the event can bring good profits.

To find orders for tests and essays, a student can register on one of the websites of companies providing such services. In addition, in social networks for each city there are groups dedicated to solving educational work to order, groups of schools and classes. You can advertise your services there.

Important! Many sites recommend that teenagers of 12 years old make money on freelance exchanges. However, this cannot be called a good idea - schoolchildren of this age do not have the appropriate knowledge and skills to develop a quality program, write a competent and informative text or create a good illustration.

Second important point in which a teenager will need the help of parents is receiving payment for work via the Internet. Most freelance sites and exchanges withdraw money earned by users to wallets of electronic payment systems. Anyone can have such a wallet. But in order to receive payments on it and withdraw money, you will need to confirm it in the payment system, for which you will need a passport, which a 12-year-old student does not have. There are two options here: use the parents' passport data for confirmation or look for sites that transfer earnings to the balance for work mobile phone. But still best solution will wait with Internet earnings at least until the age of 16, until then learn how to earn money in real life.

Any student wants to have their own free money. Even small savings for pocket expenses will never be superfluous. It's good when the parental salary allows you to have personal funds, but what to do when this is not possible? Then the question arises, where to get the money for the student?

Let's try to understand this issue, because the sooner a teenager learns to make money, the more chances he will have to break through in life and gain invaluable life experience. So, where can a teenager get money if there is no work experience?

It is known that work feeds a person and in our case, being a teenager (schoolboy or student), you can earn some good money. For example, even without experience, a student can put up ads. Working as a poster is usually the first experience in earning their own money for many teenagers. It is convenient to combine it with studying at school, where the schedule of your labor activity each interested student chooses independently.

Despite the apparent simplicity, posting ads is not so simple. This is a rather difficult physical labor, therefore, agreeing to such work, the student must calculate his strength.

How can a teenager 12, 13, 14 years old make money on the Internet

Three to four hours a day will have to devote to this activity. The result of the work will be a pleasant reward, although not very large. But, the first money is the first money and you will always remember about them.

Newspaper money making marathon

“Where else can a teenager get money” - you ask? There is only one answer - to use your free time wisely. Now there are a lot of opportunities, when already at the age of 14-16 you can earn extra money. A student can devote his free time from studies, for example, to getting a job at the post office delivering newspapers and magazines to the recipients.

Usually, a plot or a separate microdistrict is attached to a working teenager. Twice a week, mostly on weekends, newspapers should be delivered to people's homes. Such work is much easier and less time consuming than posting notices, but often the student will have to carry heavy mailbags. Therefore, it is desirable for a teenager to be in good physical shape and have great patience in order to serve all the tenants. Remember about tact and communication culture: no one knows how life will turn out, and many of your clients can help you in the future!

Part-time work in trains will help a teenager to make work a little easier. Long trips are tiring, and sometimes on the road you want to escape from the gray everyday life and just read. This is where the schoolboy offering to buy newspapers comes in handy. Charm and sociability will help you earn the first good money, you just have to want and try!

Advertising is the engine of trade and a great way to make money

What to do and where to get money for a teenager is already clear, but what if a busy schedule does not allow you to devote 4 hours a day to posting ads? The alternative is advertising. A student can become a promoter. By promoting other people's products and conducting promotions, you can earn much more than selling newspapers.

Not only students, but also schoolchildren are interested in such work. Firstly, this is a rather non-dusty way, and apart from a well- “suspended” tongue and a sunny smile, nothing is required of you. The task of the student is to attract potential buyers and invite them to visit a store that sells cool goods, and right now there are big discounts. Keep in mind that handing out leaflets should not look brazen and intrusive, otherwise such persistence will simply scare away the future buyer and cause a negative reaction. Working as a promoter will give the student the opportunity to show their activity and life aspirations, and if they like this activity, then in the future, having work experience, they can start their own advertising business.

How can a student make money? It's time to grow up...

Yesterday's schoolboy, who easily earned his first money, sooner or later grows up and faces the problem of how to provide for himself. Not everyone has rich parents, and financial expenses are more depressing than encouraging. Being young and full of vitality, I want to try and experience everything in life, of course, good. But, how to pay for all these pleasures? How to find a source of income?

• The first is not to succumb to temptations and try to earn money with your mind or work.
• Set the right direction in life. If your desire to earn more prevails, then look for a part-time job where the pay meets your needs. If you are chasing experience in your field, then you should go to work where already experienced colleagues can teach you everything. True, in this case, large incomes, most likely, cannot be expected. But low wages must be treated philosophically - in the end, you came for experience: first learn, and then you will be entitled to expect a high salary.
• Start building your own business as a student. For example, start a blog on the Internet and promote your services. Share your experience and attract more visitors to your site, thereby increasing your income and building an online business. By learning how to manage and allocate costs, upon graduation, you can effortlessly build a real business in real life.

Thus, there are more than enough options for where to get money for a schoolboy and a student. You just need to decide how you would like to earn your pocket money, decide on the amount and begin to implement your plan. Never be afraid to start somewhere, because to become a truly successful and financially independent person, you need an experience that every teenager must go through in order to achieve well-being and stability.

In addition to all of the above, you must understand that in order to have money, you need to not only earn it, but also save it if possible. This article contains several good advice how to save for a student, and how to save for a student.

Good luck with your first earnings!

Many teenagers would like to have their own personal money, but due to their age and study, it is difficult for them to get a job. Yes, and employers are not too eager to hire a teenager for official work. However, there are real opportunities for how to earn money for a minor.

Features of regulation of labor of minors

The labor legislation of our country allows you to independently conclude an employment contract from the age of 16. It is allowed to conclude an employment contract for light work from the age of 14, but only with the consent of the legal representative. And, finally, in strictly defined cases, it is allowed to work from the age of less than 14 years: for example, for filming a movie, in advertising. In such cases, the employment contract is signed not by the child, but by the legal representative.

Minors may not work everywhere. There is a list of jobs in which children cannot work: carrying heavy loads, underground work, work in hazardous and hazardous industries, work in nightclubs, work related to the sale of tobacco and alcohol, etc. Of course, work should not interfere with studies.

The law does not prohibit a minor from engaging in entrepreneurial activities. If he is engaged in it, then from the age of 16 he can be recognized as fully capable and officially register the business.

Earning in the real world

A teenager who wants to earn money first needs to look at all possible job ads. They can be found in newspapers, on sites with vacancies.

How to make money for a 14 year old student

Or you can contact the youth labor exchange, which is in almost every city.

Of course, in this way it is very rare to find a job that pays decently. But pocket money should be enough. Most often teenagers are offered the following jobs:

1. Work as a promoter. A teenager distributes leaflets on the streets and in shopping centers. Or he stands behind the counter and conducts some kind of advertising campaign. These jobs are usually paid by the hour.
2. Work as a poster of announcements. Everything is clear here: you need to glue ads to the right places in the right area. As a rule, the number of ads is paid.
3. Postal work. There is always a shortage of staff at the post office, so they are happy to hire teenagers. And they even offer full-time work, for example, for a while summer holidays. True, the postage is very small. Most often they offer a job as a postman. But here you need to consider that such work is unsafe. After all, you will have to walk along the entrances of unfamiliar houses, perhaps in an unfamiliar area. In addition, you have to carry rather heavy bags with correspondence. Sometimes you can get a job as an assistant at the post office and do simple work: fill out documents, glue stamps, etc.
4. Work as an agent for the sale of communication services. It is necessary to call the apartments and offer various services: to connect the Internet, telephone, cable TV, etc. In principle, in terms of payment, such work is very good, but also, like the work of a postman, it is not safe.
5. Work as a courier. It is necessary to deliver something to different places. Pay is usually small. And the work itself is hard: the teenager spends all his free time “on his feet”, driving around the city. It is also possible that with a heavy burden.
6. Work as a waiter. Offers customer service to catering establishments. But it is unlikely that a teenager under the age of 16 will be hired for such work.

It is worth trying to talk about possible work with parents, other relatives and adult acquaintances. Perhaps they will help you get a better paid and more comfortable job: as a secretary, administrator, car washer cleaner, etc.

If a teenager is fond of something, for example, he is well versed in graphic editors (he knows how to create drawings in them, process photos, etc.) - there is a chance to get a job in this area. But this requires a lot of effort. Most likely, you will have to apply to the relevant companies as an intern with a symbolic payment. But there is a chance to learn new things and get an interesting job with good earnings in the future.

Earnings on the Internet

That's where there are definitely no age restrictions - on the Internet. It all depends on the ability of a teenager and his desire to earn money. For example, if a teenager is doing well with the Russian language and the presentation of thoughts, then you can even try the work of a copywriter. Those who are fond of drawing on a computer can try to sell their creations via the Internet. The same goes for young photographers. The profit from this will not be immediately and small, but you do not need to chase easy money.

It is important when looking for earnings on the Internet not to fall for the tricks of various scammers. And don’t waste time doing things that you can’t make money on (like making money on clicks, comments, etc.).

You can even start your own business from the Internet. For example, to make something with your hands and sell through the website or social networks.

How to earn at school age?

Summer has come. Let's say you went to camp. You have nothing to do, but you want to do something useful, but it’s better to get paid for it. Naturally, before this spring, you did not get on the stock exchange where they provide work for teenagers, and now you are suffering. I will immediately reassure you, these exchanges provide you with work, but it is unprofitable. The most frequent type of work at these exchanges is from 8 am to noon, walking and collecting garbage around the city. Imagine, this is a humiliation, plus you will be paid 2,000 rubles. Count, 2000 p. / 30 days = 67 rubles - for 6 hours of work, 67/6 = 11 rubles per hour. Stop 11 rubles per hour? It's a gon huh? Macdonald`s pays 200 rubles per hour. Of course, 200 rubles is difficult to get, but the job that I will offer you will not upset you.

newspaper business

I suggest you build a newspaper business. It's all very easy to listen to. If you have more than 10,000 people living in your city, then this business will not burn out. If you have 10,000 people living in your city, then you have a local newspaper that writes about acquaintances, friends, neighbors who have done something interesting. Naturally, the local newspaper is in greater demand than some "Komsomolskiy vestnik", where they write about all sorts of old Komsomol members. The local newspaper is sold in most stores in your city and it is sold for 5-6 rubles more than in the place where entrepreneurs get it from. Where do they get it from? They take it to the printing house. Let the newspaper cost 15 rubles in stores. So in the printing house (and this is the place where newspapers are born and where they have the lowest price) it will cost 10 rubles, 10 rubles? Yes, this is the recommended price at which newspapers are sold here in Russia. You can sell newspapers for 20 rubles, that is, a profit of 10 rubles. Believe me, only 200 people in your city know that newspapers can be bought cheaper at the printing house. Questions arise: Who will sell newspapers? How will newspapers be sold? Let's answer the first question.

How much money can you earn

Let's say you are 15 years old, the very age when you have a passport, there is no mind. You have friends in grades 5-6 who would do well to earn 160 rubles in a day (which is 2-3 hours). Now let's answer the second question. You can sell anywhere, just anywhere. You can go to the market, go to apartments, hypermarkets, places of worship where there are a lot of people, and calmly sell.

Here is the plan from beginning to end: go to the printing house, buy 200 newspapers (that's 2,000 rubles), sort newspapers into 5 stacks at home, 40 newspapers each. 5 guys come to you, you give each a stack of newspapers.

How to make money at 14?

They drive around the city. Believe me, it's very easy to sell 40 newspapers to one person in a day. In the evening, the guys come and bring you money. Consider: 2000r. (this is the amount spent on newspapers) multiplied by 2 (because they sold twice as much), it turns out that you earned 4000 rubles, 4000 rubles - 2000 rubles. =2000r. is net income. Now we have to pay the guys. Pay them 40% of the profits. 2000 rub./ 100*40=800 rub. you pay the guys, 5 guys, so 800 rubles / 5 = 160 rubles for each employee. You have 2000 left. — 800 rub. \u003d 1200 rubles, isn't it wonderful? Per day! And in a new way!

You can start with a different number of newspapers and employees. This is just one example of how I make money. Before I started working, I consulted with my uncle, an entrepreneur, he gave the go-ahead, and I began to work confidently. You realized that you don’t need so much strength as attention. It works! There will be a continuation of how to make money in school age. Lots of ideas, thanks for buying.

We occupy schoolchildren during the holidays - how to make money for a teenager schemes and proven methods.

The commendable desire for independence, inherent in many modern schoolchildren, is often expressed in the desire to find a side job. And this is understandable, because not all parents are able to provide their children with enough pocket money. In addition, having your own money opens up many tempting prospects for young enthusiasts, from updating their wardrobe to buying fancy gadgets. But how can a teenager who is unskilled and able to work just a few hours a day make money? This will be discussed in our article.

The specifics of teenage labor activity

Let's start with the fact that only boys and girls who have reached the age of 16 have the right to independently sign an employment contract. Up to this point, teenagers can only officially get a light part-time job and only with the consent of their legal representative. This rule applies to persons over the age of 14. Of course, there are certain exceptions. It is allowed to take young children to work related to filming in films or advertising, subject to the signing of an employment contract by their legal representatives.

It is also worth mentioning other restrictions on the labor activity of minors. For example, teenagers should not be assigned to work in dangerous and hazardous industries or in nightclubs.

How to make money as a teenager: work for schoolchildren

In addition, activities related to carrying heavy loads, selling tobacco and alcohol, etc. are prohibited. It is quite obvious that work should not interfere with the learning process. By the way, the law does not prohibit a teenager to independently engage in entrepreneurship. From the age of 16, he is recognized as fully capable and has the right to officially register a business.

Ways to find a job

The easiest and most accessible of them is to contact the employment service. In all cities of our country there are specialized centers that can provide teenagers with official employment. However, as practice shows, the offered vacancies do not meet the requirements of today's youth. And this is not surprising, because hard work for meager pay can hardly be called the ultimate dream.

Many teenagers find promising and quite profitable work through their acquaintances. Indeed, this method of employment can be called one of the most effective. It is enough just to spread the word about the job search through numerous acquaintances and look forward to the responses. Parents, friends, buddies, neighbors, classmates, comrades in circles and sections - all of them, even indirectly, can contribute to the process of employment of a teenager.

And, finally, one cannot ignore the resource for which nothing is impossible today. Of course, we are talking about the Internet. Numerous job sites, thematic forums and pages of various companies - finding a job on the World Wide Web is not difficult. You can speed up the search process by posting the appropriate status on social networks. Perhaps one of the acquaintances or completely strangers who visited the page just needs an energetic and conscientious employee.

Work in the real world

First of all, it is worth noting that teenagers aged 14 to 17 are very willing to take courier delivery services. The main advantage of this type of activity is the absence of price discrimination. That is, any employee, regardless of his age, can receive quite decent money. The amount of income will be directly proportional to the amount of work performed. Do not forget about the free schedule, which is also a tangible plus of this type of earnings. The disadvantages include the need for constant traveling, often associated with the transportation of fairly heavy bags.

It is also impossible not to recall the so-called advertising campaigns. As a rule, this concept includes posting ads and distributing leaflets. Both are quite simple activities that do not require any physical or mental costs from adolescents. At the same time, this type of income can hardly be called easy money, because schoolchildren often have to work in adverse weather conditions. In addition, the reaction of people who are trying to "shove" another flyer is sometimes not very friendly.

Let us dwell on the question of how you can earn money for a teenager who is not yet 14 years old. In this case, you should pay attention to the dog walking service. This type of teenage labor activity is perhaps the most popular in the United States, which cannot be said about our country. However, according to the results of statistical surveys, many owners of four-legged pets are ready to regularly pay for their walking. Of course, there is no talk of impressive amounts, but you can earn 100-200 rubles for a couple of daily promenades. Of course, this source of income is not suitable for everyone. A teenager should at least not be afraid of dogs, and as a maximum, be able to handle them. Daily payment and the absence of financial risks are the advantages of this type of income.

Very good income for a teenager at any age can bring and manual labor. All kinds of embroidered icons, pictures from beads, knitted hats with images of cartoon characters and other handmade products are in fairly wide demand today. The only difficulty may be the search for sources for the implementation of their work. But here, again, numerous acquaintances or various Internet forums and sites can come to the rescue.

We will not ignore another, slightly non-standard way of earning money for young people. The organization of a home greenhouse can be quite a profitable business for a teenager, regardless of his age and gender. As practice shows, caring for flowers is not too troublesome and quite a pleasant activity that can generate income. The help of parents and all kinds of online resources about floriculture will help overcome the difficulties that arise at first. Having planted a few unpretentious sprouts and allowing them to grow a little and gain color, you can safely go to a specialized store and offer your product for sale. It is possible that this type of earnings will eventually develop into a very profitable and successful business.

Work on the Internet

As you know, today's "advanced" youth literally spends all their free time at computer monitors. However, not everyone thinks that a hobby can bring a good income. Meanwhile, various ways of earning with the help of the World Wide Web are in great demand today. Let's dwell on the most profitable and interesting of them.

Particular attention should be paid to copywriting, or writing articles to order. This type of work not only teaches a teenager literacy, but also helps to expand his horizons. After all, sometimes you have to write texts on a variety of topics, from psychology to gardening. Of course, this type of earnings is not suitable for every student. It implies discipline and perseverance, as well as the ability to correctly formulate one's thoughts. As for the level of income, it directly depends on the number of items sold and their value. On average, copywriting can bring a teenager from 3 to 9 thousand rubles a month.

As for creating and maintaining your own Internet blog, this method of making a profit can also be called very promising. However, it is unlikely that you will be able to quickly earn money with it. And this is quite logical, because attracting a readership is a rather lengthy and difficult process. The obvious advantage of blogging is the ability to choose absolutely any topic that will help make the resource creative and unique. In addition, this type of income raising does not require serious knowledge in the field of programming, it is enough just to get acquainted with its subtleties and main nuances in general terms. The level of income in this case will be directly proportional to the invested work and potential of the teenager. For more information on other sources of income through the Internet, see the video.

Thus, there are many options for earning money for young people, regardless of age and gender. If desired, everyone can choose for themselves an occupation to their liking. And if some ways of income require the presence of certain skills and abilities, then others are suitable for absolutely everyone without exception. The main thing is to set a specific goal and confidently follow it, despite minor difficulties and obstacles.

The desire to earn money from a teenager is by no means a whim. Firstly, a teenager from childhood learns a simple truth - one cannot live without money in the modern world. Mom and dad will not work forever, providing their son or daughter with everything they need. Sooner or later they will retire, and you will have to work. Then you will be faced with the same choice between the primary needs of any person (food, comfort, clothing) and entertainment (cinema, discos, headphones for the computer). You will understand and logically justify all the "no" of your parents, who could not afford headphones for $ 200, and were looking for a cheaper analogue.

Secondly, the need to earn is determined by the structure of our world. A teenager understands that in order for his desires to be realized, a lot of money is needed. Parents have a well-planned budget, little is left for pocket expenses. The only way out is to look for ways to earn money.

How to make money as a teenager?

When a child becomes a teenager, it is considered that he has reached a certain intellectual level and can handle simple work, but work as a courier, poster of announcements or a flyer delivery does not require the manifestation of individuality. She will quickly get bored and will not bring moral satisfaction.

In connection with the development of commercial business on the Internet, there was a need for advertising goods and services, rewriters and copywriters, posting, processing of graphic and text information, site moderation. All this requires efficiency, attentiveness and allows you to show your individual character. And who, if not teenagers, are distinguished by a high speed of completing tasks!

Ways to make money on the Internet

So, you wondered: how to make money at 16?

I will make a reservation right away - I am 16 years old and this article will not talk about any tricky or thoughtful earnings. Rather, I will simply describe my first work experience, its pros and cons, and, perhaps, I will spur a couple of teenagers to start earning for their optional expenses on their own, because at the age of 16, usually a person already begins to understand what and how he does, why and , the main thing is what he will do in the future.

Earning money. I think that there is not a single more or less adult person in the world who would not ask questions on this topic. And although money is only an exchange currency, which in one country is calculated in dollars, in another - in euros, and in a third, in something specific, necessary for humanity in this area. But since I live in Russia, the currency here is appropriate - rubles, and I will tell about honest earnings of rubles in this article.

I will talk about the most common work for teenagers in our time - the work of a promoter, or, in simple terms, a person representing the products of a particular company, conducting various promotions, distributing leaflets, tastings, contests and much more.

You can get a job like this in almost any city, because now the number of manufactured products has increased significantly and, accordingly, the need for its promotion in the market has also increased, in attracting buyers to it.

So, my story. About a year ago, I began to realize that it was unpleasant for me to constantly ask my parents for money, I tried to do it less often, but it didn’t always work out, because heaps of small household expenses always add up. And then it dawned on me - I'm young, I have arms and legs, a head on my shoulders, so why don't I go to work? After several unsuccessful attempts to get a job (more on that later), the right place was finally found. Or rather, the right agency, but in this article without advertising.

The first job that I was assigned to was the simplest, but at the same time a routine and low-paid job - handing out leaflets. They had to be handed out for several hours a day (usually 4-5), they can give you a uniform, or they can just tell you to come in a parade a la white top - black bottom, as I had.

I will say right away - the experience, the beginning, as always, is not a very pleasant occupation, a kind of test of strength and responsibility, which many who signed up to work with me did not pass. But I defended these days (like 3 a week, 3 weeks).

At first, my legs hurt, people did not want to take leaflets and in general I wanted to get away from work, but I understood why I was doing this and my stubbornness told me: start, finish it. Then everything began to take shape - for a start, I learned a few tricks on how best to give people leaflets so that they take them. How best to convey information to them, etc.

For example, if a person is in a hurry - do not waste time on him, you need to choose people who are not too in a hurry and not too angry, if a person does not want to take a leaflet, then usually just smile at him and he will take it. You can also say some short phrase when submitting, for example, “Promotion, come!” and then you definitely will not go unnoticed. This is all understood in the first few days of work. It's simple, guys. At first it’s hard, I want to leave, but usually there are few such boring promotions and they go to newcomers to the agency, like a check. So if it seems to you that this is not what you imagined - think, what will happen if you stay and show yourself? So I did.

This action was followed by another, already more interesting one - a tasting. Here, unlike on the street, it was not necessary to shove these leaflets into people, usually people themselves came up to try a new taste of yogurt or some other yummy, who doesn’t like a freebie. And you know, even the soul becomes joyful when a person evaluates your product. This action was followed by others, actions with electronics, discount cards, products of different companies.

Usually promoters do not work alone, but 2-3 people, and when you stand with a person for several hours together, you can always make a new acquaintance or just have a nice chat during a break.

Almost any work develops a person - mentally, physically, but only if a person works not only to be paid, although wages also play a big role in choosing a job.

Now about the unsuccessful job search, as promised. In the first office I came to, they wanted to put me as an operator, call people on numbers and try to impose products on them - nothing special if it were not for the promised salary of 20 thousand and this is at 16 years old. And I don't live in Moscow. The office was small, meager, you immediately feel something is wrong. When I refused, the girl in the office did not let go for a long time and tried to convince me that the work was wonderful and that I was just stupid, since I refused. This, perhaps, convinced me completely. After getting rid of it, I went to two more places and both had the same problem - an internship.

It's one thing when you are offered a difficult job, but they pay for it, albeit not to the maximum. Another is when you are asked to work for a month for free so they can see if you are fit. Well, this is already at any gate, since they didn’t detain me here for a long time and I quickly left. So what am I talking about - always soberly assess the situation, ask about documents, employees, look at reviews about the company on the Internet (but not on the company's website) and just know the value of your work.

Now about specific earnings. For the first shares, I earned an average of 200-300 rubles a day, which, in general, is not bad for a teenager. Then they appreciated me, which I hoped for and began to call for more prestigious promotions. If at the first promotions the salary was 60-70 rubles / hour, and even on the street it was necessary to stand, then at subsequent promotions the salary increased, 85-90 rubles / hour on cards, 100-120 rubles / hour at tastings and in places where there is a mass congestion of people - exhibitions, for example.

Time is usually discussed by phone, if it does not suit you, then you can always politely refuse the action, because the schedule for such work is free, which is very convenient for a student. So, working 2-3 days a week, it is quite realistic to earn 3-4 thousand a month, which is just enough for your own expenses.

And at this time, you need to think about what to do next, because the work of a promoter is only an intermediate stage, this is the time to find yourself. To work as a promoter, you do not need special skills, the main thing is to be able to speak and, perhaps, walk smartly.

Like I said, especially interesting ways there will be no earnings, but in the future I plan to come to this. There are a lot of people in the world, a lot of things that people could pay for - the main thing is to see it and figure out how to make it all happen. And I hope that not only for me, but also for any person who has taken a step towards originality and ideas, everything will turn out well. Thanks for reading the article.
