fandomhigh | Young Entrepreneurs Club; Thursday 2pm -- 10/09.

It was the first meeting of the Young Entrepreneurs Club and, even with everything buzzing in Turtle's head for homecoming, she was ready to go and very excited and even a little bit nervous, although things like this should be old hat for her. She waited until everyone came into the classroom before greeting them.

"Hello! Thank you all for joining Young Entrepreneurs! Hopefully, we'll have a very good semester and make a little money, because that's what entrepreneuring is all about! Today, we're going to introduce ourselves by way of one of the most important items an entrepreneur can have: a business card. If you already have a business card, great! If you don't, there's some sturdy paper, pen, and markers, and you can make a makeshift one, with your name, what sort of business you're really interested in, or anything else you'd like to include. Mine has a little Turtle & Canary emblem in the corner, see? So let's take a few minutes to do that and then we'll just chat and stuff today!

"For next week, I'd like you all to think of lots of great ideas on what we can produce this semester to sell for the benefit of the club, okay?"

In case you want a thread to work on them, you got it!

So, who are you? Show off your card and how it shows off who you are.

Just like last time, Deadpool's keeping an eye on the future owners of the world, Lord help us all.

Fairly uninspired first meeting, but they're first meetings! They're allowed to be!

Ned

Ned grabbed a card and a green marker. He didn't quite know what to write besides him name and the one thing he was really good at.

So, he went with that.

NED.

I make pie.

And that was about it.

"I'm Ned," he said and held up his oh so creative business card. He needed to learn to draw ASAP. "And I...bake. A lot. I have a dog too. His name's Digby. But the card's pretty simple and that's about how I am."

Turtle held out her very professional business card, simple with accents of green and that nice little logo. "I'm T.R. Wexler, and I'm the president of this club. Many of you probably already know me not only as the proprietor of Turtle & Canary, but also from my work in radio and student council, among many other things. I'm very excited for our club, and I"m positive that we will have a great time!"

Turtle bounced a little at Ned's introduction. "Yay! Hi, Ned! I'm really happy to see you in the club!" And it was pretty clear, too, by her beaming smile, although she was pretty excited over-all. This just added to it.

"Thanks," he said and blushed a little but managed to cover it with one of his hands. "Me and my business card are happy to be here."

Dor

"These are just temporary business cards, anyway," Turtle said, waving a hand. "We'll meet another time at the computer lab to make up some really fancy ones for when it gets close to promoting whatever project we'll do this semester."

"Hopefully by that time my art skills will be improved," Ned said and made a face at his business card. "Or, at least, my ability to form ideas will be better."

Jack Burton!

"Awww, I like it, though!" Turtle insisted kindly. "It's simple, to the point. Gets the message out there. Consumers like that."

Business card...hrm...Well, he was now the executive of Jack Burton Enterprises Limited (he could think of a better name later).

Jack Burton
Transportation
I deliver!

Yeah. That looks nice.

Jack was peering at his card. It looked a bit...amateur. "I'm Jack. And I deliver."

Maybe a doodle of a semi would look nice?

"Hi, Jack." Turtle gave him a smile and a wave. "Good to see you decided to join us. That's an excellent slogan, too, with the double meaning and everything."

"Thanks," he said and felt a little better about his business card. Turtle was the expert, after all. "There's a lot of white space so I'd still like to get that taken care of. In the future."

"When in doubt," Turtle said, expertly, "you could always add a nice border."

Alice Liddell

A proper business card should probably have fewer doodles and scribbles on it ...

"My name is Alice Liddell," Alice said, standing. "I have never entrepreneured before. Is that word one that can be used as a verb? For my business card (http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v328/Rellyjean/alice/buscard.jpg), I wrote my name and several of my finer qualities, and then I filled in most of the white space with drawings and doodles."

Just like they did in the Fortune 500, really.

"Excuse me," Alice said cheerfully. "Did you happen to bring any pie with you?"

It was a valid question, and she hadn't had dessert at lunch.
