I was exposed to entrepreneurship when I was in the second grade. My brother and I both wanted to make some extra money, so we decided that we could do 2 things: start a garage sale or host a rock concert (bear in mind: my brother and I did not know how to play any instruments at this point). After bringing the two ideas to my parents, they both said no to the garage sale idea (since we literally just moved into the new house), and they said that we could host a neighborhood rock concert, but couldn’t charge anyone (since we both didn’t know how to play any instruments). At that point, we were more eager to perform rather than make money, so we just went with it. Two of our neighbors actually showed up! My brother and I were ecstatic.
That was the first time I was really introduced to entrepreneurship. I have always been a curious person, so in the 10th grade, after learning basic chemistry, I wanted to invent something and become a multi-millionaire. The thing is… I never really invented anything. I had a ton of ideas that I tried to track in a journal, but never really went full force with any of them.
It was only until my freshman year of college (last year), that I finally did something that just about everyone would consider entrepreneurial: I started my own company. The company’s name is Trn-Eco LLC, (pronounced Turn - Eco) and I mostly post stoic-inspired motivational quotes on Instagram. The process has been tough since I only collect sales through selling merchandise. This has forced me to find ways to keep costs low so that I can continue running the company without losing money. Despite the challenges, I love doing what I do at Trn-Eco, and I would encourage the readers to check out the website: trn-eco.com and Instagram: @trn_eco.
That’s the main reason I enrolled in this class: to learn more about entrepreneurship and hopefully guide me on my journey with Trn-Eco or any other venture I choose!

Hello Matthew! You just reminded me of a time where my friends and I had a similar aspiration to have some extra change and we made a lemonade stand. It actually worked out alright, but the way we had to split up the proceeds broke us apart since all of the ingredients and supplies were provided by solely one person. It was definitely a learning lesson, but we never pursued anything else after that. Also, you have a new follower for Trn-Eco! I love reading quotes, the images look great!
