Empowering teens and parents to learn investing together through play.
TeenVest Academy is an online learning platform that turns teens into savvy mini-investors. We offer a structured curriculum of bite-sized video lessons, interactive stock market simulations, and gamified challenges that make finance fun. Parents get a dashboard to monitor progress and conversation starters to discuss money at home. The business runs on a part-time basis: the founder creates one new module per month, hosts a live Q&A every other weekend, and engages the community via social media. Revenue comes from monthly family subscriptions ($25) or a one-time lifetime access fee ($199). With a budget under $5k, we use Teachable, Zoom, and organic social media marketing to reach families. The goal is to build a lifelong investing mindset in teens before they open their first brokerage account.
Financial literacy for youth is gaining traction as schools lag behind, while teens are increasingly exposed to meme stocks and crypto. Parents are actively seeking structured, positive alternatives to TikTok investment tips.
