Teaching Business Skills to Kids

Hi, Nina.

Hmm, interesting. Some pretty good stuff, huh?

Hey, what's your name?

Timmy.

That's good. That's a nice, firm handshake. Where's your team?

Huh?

In business, you need a team. Where's his team? What's going on here?

Um, I work alone.

Look at your competition. They're all making a lot of money,

and you're sitting

here.

So we're gonna make you a winner. Do you wanna be a winner?

Yeah.

Principal,

come here. Janitor,

come here. Science teacher, come here.

So Timmy, do you understand what we're doing here?

We have a team.

Yeah.

It starts with these three people. We're gonna suit them up properly.

I'm gonna take you to the Trump collection.

You're gonna love what you see.

You know, you have to remember one thing. Timmy, come here.

A bad suit is an advertisement for the competition. You know that?

You gotta dress smart. You gotta dress sharp.

I like these.

You like the French cuffs?

Yep.

You know what a French cuff is?

No.

Are the faucet fixtures really gold?

I like clothes with robots on them.

That's pretty cool.

I didn't bring any money with me.

Look it, do you have a credit card?

Don't you have a credit card?

Let's go to the bake sale. You're gonna win. You're gonna do great.

Come on, let's go.

This location is killing me.

I was waiting for you to say that, Timmy.

Let's move it over there.

Good. Come on, fellas. Let's go.

How about right here? Perfect.

Much better. But you know, the table's not right. In fact, it stinks.

Get this table out. Let's put that one in.

Okay, fellas. Bring in the case. Come on, let's go. Quick.

Quickly.

Move it down.

Uh, move that over here.

Now bring in the statue. What's that mess?

I'm sorry.

What is that mess? Clean!

Yes, sir.

Timmy, these cookies are no good. We gotta do better.

Bring in the Trump cookies, please.

Uh, Timmy, could I get your counsel on something?

Get your fingers off the glass.

Oh, sorry. Right.

Come on.

My lease is running out. Do you think Mr. Trump could get me an apartment?

Are you looking to get fired?

No.

Then get out of my face.

Yes, sir.

Why did I hire these guys?

That's good, Tim.

I like it.

Ha.

Perfect.

Guys and gals, what do you think?

It's good.

We are now open for business.

Timmy, I'm proud of you. Now you've got it. How does it feel?

Good.

How would you like to be the CEO of one of my big businesses?

I gotta ask my mom.
