Toys by Teens, LLC was formed by the not-for-profit group Teen Entrepreneur Boot Camp to create a real-working business model to teach students about entrepreneurship. Dr. Howard Wexler, inventor of the game Connect Four, donated a new invention to the project for the students to launch into the marketplace. The eventual revenue earned from sales will be used to offer this free program to new teams of students.

Ground Booty: Day 6
Over the weekend we had sent out the press release. At the beginning of the day we got out first real taste of the business. We saw the poster!!! The poster looks great! We actually got 2. One big and one small. We hung up the large poaster on the bow of the ship. It took a while, cutting string and attaching it. After the poster was all set we began talking about the menu. We split into groups for the rest of the day to cover more ground. One group contacted news papers, one caontaced radio shows, and television news. We asked for contacts, and sent our press release. Another group spent the rest of the day finishing the flyers which we needed asap to send them out. We got quotes from different printers and decided on the company that gave us the best deal. We got 1,000 post card for $200. This was a long, but eventful day!
