How Can Entrepreneurship Help Your Daughter Build Self Confidence?
Has your daughter ever sold anything and realized how it can help her gain self confidence?
- Maybe she is a Girl Scout and she sold Girl Scout cookies?
- Or she participated in a car wash or another school fundraising activity?
I am not talking about when YOU brought the forms into your job. You remembered every colleague who asked you to participate in their kid’s wrapping paper fundraiser. So, you returned the favor. LOL.
Remember a time when SHE sold.
- She talked about why this was important

- Hearing no and handling objections
