About The Hundred Dollar Business

After a semester of great entrepreneurship lectures at BYU, conferences, speakers, books, and being associated with an amazing local entrepreneur community, it’s time to put it all to the test.

With $100 dollars, 30 days, and solid business principles, we intend to set up a functioning business, cover all expenses, and earn back $100 to continue the next Hundred Dollar Business project.

Join us by reading the blog and giving your suggestions! If you see anything we could do better/differently, or you know someone who knows someone who… you get the idea.
