"Recent studies show that every 26
seconds in the U.S. a student drops out of high school...nearly
half of students who enroll in high school will never receive
their high school diploma."
But somewhere in the
underground and off the radar youth and teen entrepreneur coach
Shonika Proctor is showing her full commitment to working with
spirited and determined teens who are
beating the odds in SCHOOL, in LIFE and in BUSINESS. They
are becoming self-sufficient on their own resolve!
As a prospective sponsor (individual or corporate) you can
engage and learn with and from them as they take the first - and
subsequent - steps toward building an entrepreneurial mindset.
The result? A way of thinking that will forever impact the way
they think, work and live.
Having an entrepreneurial
mindset is not a different approach to thinking
but the only approach to thinking.
Whether you decide to work for yourself or someone else
having an entrepreneurial mindset will determine your
ultimate quality of life (or lack thereof).
-Shonika Proctor, Pioneer of Teen
Entrepreneurship Coaching
Everyday across the U.S. there is a
surge of radical niche businesses being developed by young
people in their teens.
In the world of the Renegade CEO's we are ALL
about rebellious, extreme, independent, radical,
underground teens who want and need their ideas to be heard like
yesterday! While we realize that these traits are a parents' or
teachers' worst nightmare, these are the most desirable traits
of a DREAM coaching candidate for our next successful Teen
Renegade CEO.
Daniel Uribe has
traveled more than 4,000 miles...on a skateboard! That
is exactly why he is the founder and president of Lazer
Bearings, a wholesale company that designs high-end
silicon nitride ceramic bearings for skateboards, roller
skates, movie dollies and everything else that rolls.
He’s a thrash innovator!
Our teen entrepreneurs thrive here…in a world that's mysterious,
unknown to most and definitively 100% their own. It's a magical
yet wickedly dark place and a global 'living laboratory' where
they manifest raw talent and fulfill uninhibited dreams.

Many of the youth and teens in our program
live in broken/single family homes or have overcome a tremendous
personal hardship so any level of contribution helps us
significantly. Our community is completely operated by
self-generated funding and generous sponsors like you.
If you don't proactively support
youth & teens now...you may have to support them in the near
future as a caretaker or taxpayer.
These timely yet timeless videos focus on progressive yet
wholesome themes that are relevant to today's teen. Videos are
scripted, edited and filmed by teens in either our Washington,
DC or Los Angeles Studio. As a corporate sponsor you will
receive your name, product or service strategically mentioned or
placed in the video and tagged as a resource. See a sample of
our work here:
2. Sponsor Our Workshop Series ($3,500 per series)
Our workshop series integrates chapters/themes (from holistic to
marketing & branding) excerpted from our book, Teen
Entrepreneur Success Secrets, and pairs them with
supplementary multimedia hands-on training tools, workbooks,
videos and case studies. Your donation helps to fund research,
design and production of these workshops. These workshops are
offered in after-school programs, business classes, conferences
and seminars. These workshops help introduce and expose the entrepreneurial mindset to
teens, educational advocates and prospective global and
complimentary partners who are not yet familiar with our
program.
3. Sponsor-A-Teen CEO
Our most accomplished Teen CEO's are doing all sorts of amazing
things from generating revenues equal to their household incomes
to running a business out of an office space that they leased on
their own. However, it took a lot of coaching and ongoing
support from various people in both online and offline
communities to get them to that level. By sponsoring a Teen CEO
you provide them with reserve capital that allows them to be
exposed to opportunities they may not have had the chance to do
otherwise such as:
Traveling out of the state to meet with a potential investor or
client
Entering a business plan competition
Taking public speaking or ongoing professional development
classes
Designing & Manufacturing a sample prototype of a product
Having legal contracts drafted
Currently, most of the work they have done to date has been
purely guerrilla marketing, along with their responsibilities of
going to school and helping as needed at home. Your sponsorship
of a Teen CEO or donation of any amount helps alleviate some of
their start up and growth struggles.
'Meto' proudly brands
herself as the ultimate Nintendork. She is a self-taught
anime artist who is often lost in a world of manga and
chibi’s that she has spent more than 8 years creating.
In addition to being young, she’s swimming upstream as a
girl in a guy's world! She is currently creating her
first comic book.
Level
1: 'Rags to Niches': $600 (or $50/mo)Since all Renegade CEO's realize that 'Living Your Dream' is
about moving in sync with your own reality, Level 1 Teen CEO's
learn to align their mind-spirit-body as they are taught the
importance of discovering, embracing and celebrating their
unique talents and gifts. Once they learn how to run to things
instead of from them, they are able to figure out their ideal
niche business.
Patricio Quezada
realizes that as a talent scout and CEO of an emerging
modeling & talent agency, in just a few quick moments he
has to make his point. He has to BE what he seeks to do
with the aspiring models, singers, actors and other
performers who want to be stars...he has to make a
statement...that will be remembered.
Level
2: 'Seuss Shall Set You Free': $1500 (or $125/mo)When adults evolve from breakdown to breakthrough and experience
their Zen and AHA moments they are usually like 'aaaaaah' and
envisioning the sunset across a beautiful background. However,
when teens have a breakthrough moment, it is because their
confidence is increasing, so they usually get a little crazy and
a little radical. Often times if not guided properly they can
quickly end up right back where they started. So in Level 2 they
are learning a bit of Seuss'ism strategies, getting comfortable
with speaking & interviews and learning how to maintain a
purpose driven focus no matter how silly others think it sounds
or seems at that time. These training techniques will ultimately
allow them to continue to have fun yet help them build a
personal brand that becomes more relevant and focused with time.
Muata Gibson-Hunter
is radically different than most 15 year old boys. He
spends most of his time reading and writing. He is a
prolific writer who recently completed his second
graphic novel, 52 Blocks. With a love of ancient martial
arts, pencil art and a great story line, Muata is on a
mission to produce a series of books that will become a
full length feature film. Having an older brother as a
screenwriter just might help him get there a little
faster ;-)
Level
3: 'Go Beyond...': $3,000+ Because most teens know EVERYTHING and NOTHING at all ;-) Level
3 Teens have made it almost as far as Teen Entrepreneur
Coach Shonika Proctor can take them. At this point they are
becoming extremely independent and have to really begin
transitioning into interesting and unique partnerships with more
established firms in their respective industry that can help
them truly evolve to the next level. At this stage teen CEO's
are usually meeting with Angel Investors, designing &
manufacturing products, building ecommerce stores and they may
even be outsourcing some of their backend support.
DaeQuaan Williams is
an avid lover of all things Motocross (MX). He has spent
more than half of his life actively involved in the
sport of Motocross and he's only 12 years old! From
controlling his turns on curves to changing his exhaust
system, there are few things that DaeQuaan hasn’t
figured out how to fix or modify on his own MX bike.
While he's considering a career in racing, first things
first as he’s finishing the design and prototype of his
30cc (adult) MX training bike and his family-friendly
Motocross Parks.
