Police are called on boy selling ‘Ice Cold Beer’ but his clever sign has them chuckling.
11-year-old Seth had neighbors calling the cops on him when they spotted his “Ice Cold Beer” sign.
Really though, his idea was pretty genius.
There are some kids out there who seem destined for the business world.
Even at young ages, they enjoy combining brilliant ideas with their hard work ethic, all so they can bring in a little cash.
Seth built a stand near the side of the road. However, instead of lemonade, he sold another tasty beverage.
He stood at the roadside with a sign that said, “Ice cold beer”.
Because he was just a kid, a neighbor decided to call the police.
The cops immediately went to the area to start an investigation.
Fortunately, when they arrived they found out that Seth wasn’t selling actual “beer.”
Instead, his advertising had a hilarious and clever twist.
A closer look at the sign revealed that he was actually selling “root” beer!
The boy didn’t deceive anyone. In his sign, the word “root” was written in green.
You wouldn’t be able to see it without getting close.
Instead of getting mad at the boy for coming up with such an idea, the Policemen considered it an excellent marketing strategy.
They were even amazed at how good his business went. Not a lot of kids would be able to pull that off!
Seth may be young but he sure knows how to attract business.
While many children create lemonade stands and mow lawns for money, this young man showed everyone that thinking outside the box can make a big difference.
It’ll be interesting to see what other clever ideas he comes up with in the future and how other young entrepreneurs learn from his business success.
