ABSTRACT
The article discusses how business ideas should be structured for adolescent girls and how, as companies grow,
founders must diversify their products and services, diversify their projects, and search for directions to develop their
projects.
KEYWORDS
Adolescent entrepreneurship, main needs of creative entrepreneurs, creating own projects, creating like-minded
communities, self-development.
INTRODUCTION
Entrepreneurial activity is rapidly developing in our
country. The state plays an important role in projects
contributing to its development. The dream is for the
knowledge of young students to benefit our country
and for every new generation to be significant for the
future. The opportunity to start one's own business,
share one's knowledge, earn an income to help
parents, and have one's own money are motivations
for choosing entrepreneurship. Important goals and
objectives were set to determine the real opportunities
for adolescent girls' entrepreneurial activity.
Entrepreneurship at an adolescent age can yield great
results, as young minds are capable of finding and
promoting
non-standard
business
solutions,
generating new ideas, and implementing them.
Entrepreneurial activity is an independent activity
carried out at one's own risk, with the purpose of
deriving regular profit from the use of property, the
sale of goods, the performance of work, or the
provision of services by individuals registered in this
capacity in accordance with legal procedures.

In the modern world, projects and companies that
monetize intellectual property are at the forefront and
driving force of the economy. Most often, they operate
in creative sectors
—
enterprises in digital technology,
arts, culture, design, media, and communications.
Such companies are often founded by people who
share certain views and values
—
these are creative
entrepreneurs.
Creative entrepreneurs are not only those who sell
artwork and music. According to the study "How
Creative Entrepreneurs Live," founders of such
projects possess skills and personal qualities that allow
them to start a business under conditions of high
uncertainty and work with the "complexity of creative
products" a priori.
The main need of creative entrepreneurs is the desire
to change the world for the better, which is why they
decide to create their own projects. Second and third
places are shared by the desire to bring people
together,
create
communities
of
like-minded
individuals, and pursue self-development.
According to creative entrepreneurs, their approach to
business is not primarily about striving for profit but
rather based on their love for what they do. Their
activity can sometimes be both leisure and work, which
means that business becomes a lifestyle for them,
touching all areas of their life.
Research shows that creative entrepreneurs rarely
have specialized education, but their ability and desire
to learn allow them to quickly master new directions.
Most creative entrepreneurs have well-developed
skills that compensate for the lack of certain
competencies.
As companies grow, founders face the need to
diversify products and services, diversify projects, and
seek directions for project development. To do this, it
is important for them to have the following skills (most
of which they already possess):
1.
Stress resistance and patience to continue
project development despite constant risks
—
such as new customer demands, changing
audience preferences, and contextual and
metaphorical shifts like lockdowns during the
COVID-19 pandemic.
2.
The ability to create an effective team and
maintain a balance between creating a
positive, safe environment and monitoring task
completion.
3.
Economic adaptability that allows for
developing alternative ways of development.
This skill is especially important in creative
fields, where the market is still forming and the
places for production and sales are not clearly
defined.
4.
Empathy in dealing with customers.
5.
The ability to maintain connections within the
professional community. This skill is closely tied
to the need of creative entrepreneurs to form
their own social circle, which can provide them
with both loyal customers and employees.
Creative entrepreneurship typically relies on human
capital, distribution and sales infrastructure, as well as
the cultural potential of the city and its population.
Entrepreneurs in this field may face various challenges,
from audiences not being ready to not being able to
assemble a team with the necessary skills.
Notably, the ecological situation is becoming a
motivation for developing ecological activism, socially

responsible businesses, and introducing new solutions
in eco-control. For example, the diversity of the urban
environment encourages entrepreneurs to create new
landmarks and become socially active in solving urban
issues, such as preserving architectural heritage.
The
availability
of
administrative
support,
opportunities to collaborate with other creative
enterprises, and the rich historical, cultural, and natural
conditions of cities are factors that help the growth
and development of creative projects.
Creative entrepreneurship is not only shaped by the
external environment but also actively influences it:
•
Through collaboration with other enterprises;
•
By organizing events, fostering consumer
culture;
•
By creating demand from audiences for new
product and service quality;
•
By forming new landmarks.
As a result, there is a change in citizens' culture and
lifestyle and the formation of communities around
projects.
Creative entrepreneurs are forced to balance between
altruistic needs and the necessity to earn money.
However, the values that motivate them
—
self-
awareness, freedom, the need for self-development,
communication skills, and a willingness to take risks
—
help them create new products and services unfamiliar
to the market or elevate them to a new level of quality.
Creating their community allows such entrepreneurs
to feel nurtured among like-minded individuals, receive
support, and gain encouragement from this
community.
Creative entrepreneurs are people who build their own
reality and use everything around them for this
purpose. They do not avoid risks or look for safe
business directions, nor do they shy away from starting
their business. They seek to shape, create, and change
the environment as they wish. Unlike crude
institutional strategies, the tactics of creative
entrepreneurs allow them to quickly and precisely
reassemble everyday life.
Creative entrepreneurs invest in developing their own
or others' talents. Table 1 presents a comparative
analytical profile of a creative entrepreneur.

self-employment or

any creative field. A
creative entrepreneur
differs from a
conventional
entrepreneur because
they are engaged in
creating or exploiting
creative or
intellectual capital.
There are three ways for citizens of our country to
engage in entrepreneurship:
1. By establishing a legal entity.
2. By registering as an individual entrepreneur.
3. By creating a farm.
Entrepreneurship is an activity aimed at regularly
generating profit. The effectiveness of entrepreneurial
activity can be evaluated by the amount of profit
received, as well as changes in business value (market
value of the enterprise). Entrepreneurship is the most
important process that encompasses all institutions of
a market economy.

Entrepreneurship requires a business plan. A business
plan is a document that reflects information about the
selected market segment, competitors, and the
uniqueness of the product or service. It also collects
information about the prospects of the enterprise and
calculates the profitability of the project. Having a
business plan allows you to see the whole picture and
solves a number of tasks for the owner or the person
trying to implement the idea, such as:
-
The prospects and potential of the project;
-
Possible shortcomings of the project;
-
The direction in which to proceed for further
development;

The time and money needed to implement and
promote the idea.
We have studied the legal aspects of starting
adolescent
girls'
entrepreneurship.
Generally,
individuals can start a business from the age of 18
—
this
is considered the time when full legal capacity is
achieved. From the age of 16, adolescents may start a
business if they have the written, notarized consent of
their parents (legal representatives) or if they are
considered fully capable due to employment or
marriage. From the age of 14, they may start a business
with the written, notarized consent of their parents
(legal representatives), as well as in case of marriage if
such an opportunity is allowed by the country's laws.
For minors, that is, individuals aged 6 to 14 years, the
law does not provide an opportunity to engage in
entrepreneurial activity.
For state registration as an individual entrepreneur, an
application is submitted to the relevant authorities.
The list of documents that must be submitted to the
registering authority is implemented according to the
"Regulation on the Procedure for State Registration of
Business Entities."
Adolescents are prohibited from working or engaging
in entrepreneurial activities in the following cases:
-
For heavy work (at 14 years old, carrying loads not
exceeding 12 kg; at 15 years old, loads not
exceeding 15 kg);
-
Work involving hazardous or harmful conditions;
-
Work performed at night;
-
Work that may harm their health and moral
development** (such as gambling, working in
nightclubs, etc.);
-
Work related to the production, storage, and sale
of alcoholic beverages, tobacco products,
narcotics, and toxic drugs;
-
Work related to night shifts.
Employees under 18 are entitled to reduced working
hours (without loss of wages) and a longer annual paid
leave.
Working hours are defined as follows (Article 415 of the
Labor Code of the Republic of Uzbekistan):
- The working time for employees aged 16 to 18 should
not exceed thirty-six hours per week, and for
employees aged 15 to 16, it should not exceed twenty-
four hours per week.
- The working time of students working during school
hours should not exceed half of the maximum working
time established for adolescent employees under this
article.
The daily duration of work (shift) should not exceed
the following limits (Article 416 of the Labor Code of
the Republic of Uzbekistan):
- For employees aged 15 to 16: four hours in a six-day
work week and five hours in a five-day work week;
- For employees aged 16 to 18: six hours in a six-day
work week and seven hours and thirty minutes in a five-
day work week;
- For students of general secondary, secondary special,
and vocational educational institutions aged 15 to 16
working during the school year: two hours in a six-day
work week and two hours and thirty minutes in a five-
day work week;

- For students aged 16 to 18: three hours in a six-day
work week and four hours in a five-day work week.
All workplaces employing adolescents must meet
safety working conditions certified by the results of
workplace certification with a positive conclusion from
state expertise.

Advertising plays an important role in entrepreneurial
activity. The main advertising methods used in this
project include: speaking at parent meetings and
advertising services in electronic media.
"Business Risks" refer to the possibilities of insufficient
profit (or even loss) due to uncertainty. Such risks may
arise in the following cases:
- A decrease in demand for tutoring services;

- Competition;
- Sick leaves.
Currently, many students are studying English and
Mathematics. One way to cover personal and optional
expenses is through tutoring. Tutoring typically
doesn't have one-time expenses because classes can
be conducted from home over the internet, using
available equipment like a computer and printer. The
current costs associated with tutoring are presented in
the table below.
CONCLUSION
In conclusion, the number of adolescent entrepreneurs
is increasing year by year. Entrepreneurial activity is an
additional contribution to the family budget. Modern
adolescent girls' entrepreneurial activity is real and
possible today, as evidenced by conducted research.
However, it primarily manifests itself in providing
various services, with only a few ready to start their
own "business." Adolescents are innovators who can
contribute to the development of the city, region, and
even the country's economy.
