Respect in Business as A Teen

As I walked into the office of a local business in my area, I noticed some funny looks. I was wondering was there something on my face or something. I had a important meeting with a local business owner as a part of my offline business that Ive just put together for the New Year.

As I shook the owners hand and introduced myself as the person he just talked to on the phone. He looked confused and said he thought I was older. I went on with my proposal smoothly but it seemed he was not convinced. Was it because of my age? He said he would get back to me but never did.

I was really down for this for a while but moved on to the next business. That's all you can really do. You have to face the reality that some business aren't going to trust you with their money because of your age.
Alot of older people think that you don't know what you're doing because you're young, but I learned to prove them wrong by showing them you know what you're talking about inside and out. I don't give them room to catch me in a mistake.

Also a BIG issue is DON'T LET THEM KNOW YOU'RE NERVOUS. I also learned not be discouraged, just move on to the next thing. As a teenager don't think it won't happen to you because it usually does and when it does just be ready. As for the older people reading this, no disrespect. I just feel yall should give us more credit than yall do. We are the next generation and I feel you should help us and guide us for the future.
