Apprentice Style Business Competition

We tried this idea at my company with great success and fun. The ideas is an apprentice style business competition.


  1. We decide what the business is.
  2. Everyone competes with the same objective.
  3. Whoever has the highest profit wins.


The last competition was at work and we had 5 teams of two. The goal was to publish a book within three months. Each team had a maximum budget of $100. It was surprising to see how much people could do in their spare time.

It's great opportunity, because unlike your primary job, there is no penalty for failure. If you can even make one dollar and no-one else does, you win.

I am trying to get something started and I'm looking for teams of two. Send me your names.

What's the prize? Bragging rights.  You get to keep any earnings.

If you know anyone, let us know.
