Although networking is more or less associated with the adult business world teens can use networking also. For instance, if you make cd's(or put music on ipods) you can make this a successful business with potentially little work.
All you need is at least 1 person who can vouch for your credibility and ability. Get this person to tell everyone about yourself. I can guarantee after 1 or 2 good jobs your name will start to come up in many a situation. This method can almost instantly create a customer base.
There's also the fact thta you prbably know a lot of adults. You can use them to your advantage. I mean who would really turn down a teen trying to do something to make their life better? Not many i tell you. Ask adults(parents,family,neighbors,etc.) to help get your business out.Imagine this: you tell 5 adults,and they tell 5 more,they tell 3 more,etc.You just managed to get your business out to a lot more people than you would if you just told evrybody and expected them to keep it to themsleves.
Then there's the ultimate form of networking for teens. Simply become riends with everybody.More importantly the people in your school who are "likely to succeed". Think about it.In 5 years they may be superstars who can help you get your business out.Remember just because they can't help you noe dosen't mean they cant help.
