This is my niece, Lindy, and we are going to go paint addresses on the curbs today. So, curb painting, that’s how I got my start. A lot of people are like, hey sam, how long have you been knocking? My answer? Since I was 11.
Perfect For Kids
So, I am taking my niece and we are going back to the roots of my curb painting days. I am showing her how to go out and make a little money. This is the perfect job for teenagers or anyone else looking to make a little extra money. You can charge $15 and pocket a little extra cash for gas, tuition, groceries, or whatever you need. Here’s a typical pitch-
Easy Pitch
Hey! Hi! We’re just the ones painting the addresses on the curb. So, like there’s our stuff’s over at the neighbor’s house right there. We’re just waiting for his to dry and we’re just wondering if you guys would like us to repaint yours. It is a little faded. I don’t know if you’ve looked at it lately. So, hey do you want us to just touch it up it’s only $15 bucks. We’re just doing his right now and he can’t really read yours right now so, is that cool if we just knock it out? Ya? Okay, cool.
Fast Sale
See how fast that was? You paint it and get it done, and let it dry while you go pitch the next house. If you have teenage kids and you are trying to show them how to work hard and earn their own money, this is the perfect side hustle. It can be done on their own time, it teaches them how to work hard, and it shows them they are capable. It gives them so many learning opportunities. It is a quick way to turn out some cash.
So, Lindy was out here with me today. She learned some valuable skills. If you want to teach your kids a valuable skill set of selling, get them out and paint some curbs.
