DENVER — Less than one year ago, 8-year-old Aiden Newman-Brown started his own business, called Bottle Caps Are Cool. After finding a passion in collecting old bottle caps, Aiden decided to create a business from the hundreds he had sitting around his house. Tap Caps are Aiden's No. 1 product and he has already had over 500 orders. 'Tap Cap is a bottle cap keychain that you can program to anything you want, like a video, website, link, phone number,' Aiden explained.
Since you have to physically tap the cap to a phone, Aiden sees this as a way to get people meeting face-to-face. He is also using some of the profits to help people in his community on a weekly basis. 'I make food, like in the winter, like hand-warmers, socks, stuff like that,' Aiden said. Aiden builds supply kits, called Tap Caps Connect bags, and meals for food-insecure people in his community. And at 8-years-old, he already has advice for any entrepreneur.
