I'm Saira Khan, and I'm a successful businesswoman. | 0:00:02 | 0:00:04 | |
I started trading when I was just a teenager. | 0:00:04 | 0:00:06 | |
Now, I'm looking for the next generation of budding entrepreneurs | 0:00:06 | 0:00:10 | |
who are fantastic at trading and know how to make a profit. | 0:00:10 | 0:00:15 | |
I'm looking for Britain's best young traders. | 0:00:15 | 0:00:18 | |
Will you do three for £2? | 0:00:18 | 0:00:21 | |
Can I interest you in 50p for the jumbo swords? | 0:00:21 | 0:00:23 | |
-Yes. -No. -From over 1,000 applicants, 14 teams | 0:00:23 | 0:00:27 | |
have made it through to the heats. | 0:00:27 | 0:00:29 | |
-Would you like a pick-and-mix fruit dessert? -Very nice, lovely. | 0:00:29 | 0:00:33 | |
They'll be tested in a range of tough trading challenges. | 0:00:33 | 0:00:37 | |
I don't know how I'm going to survive this cheese challenge. | 0:00:37 | 0:00:40 | |
I think you look amazing. | 0:00:40 | 0:00:42 | |
Each team will be given £75. | 0:00:42 | 0:00:46 | |
They must decide what to buy... | 0:00:46 | 0:00:48 | |
I think we need to look for a cheap teapot. | 0:00:48 | 0:00:51 | |
..Negotiate the lowest prices... | 0:00:51 | 0:00:54 | |
-It's a deal. -£8.40. | 0:00:54 | 0:00:56 | |
You drive a hard bargain. | 0:00:56 | 0:00:57 | |
Nice doing business with you. | 0:00:57 | 0:00:59 | |
..And then they must sell, sell, sell. | 0:00:59 | 0:01:02 | |
-£10. -Go on, glitzy glam. | 0:01:02 | 0:01:05 | |
The team that takes the most money wins the challenge. | 0:01:05 | 0:01:09 | |
But only the teams that top the leaderboard could be | 0:01:09 | 0:01:12 | |
in with a chance of competing in the grand final in New York. | 0:01:12 | 0:01:17 | |
USA. U-S-A! | 0:01:19 | 0:01:22 | |
Watch them in action, listen out for my top trading tips, | 0:01:25 | 0:01:28 | |
and one day you too could trade your way to the USA. | 0:01:28 | 0:01:33 | |
It's time to meet today's two teams, both from Essex. | 0:01:38 | 0:01:42 | |
It's Trendz versus Sky Limit. | 0:01:42 | 0:01:43 | |
We're Trendz and we're going to trade our way to the USA! | 0:01:43 | 0:01:48 | |
School friends Joyce, | 0:01:50 | 0:01:52 | |
Linda and Astrid have got one big thing in common - image. | 0:01:52 | 0:01:57 | |
We're called Trendz because we care about our image and the way we look. | 0:01:57 | 0:02:02 | |
I spend a long time doing my hair because I want to get it perfect. | 0:02:05 | 0:02:09 | |
I think I'm the person that | 0:02:09 | 0:02:11 | |
should be selling things to people because I can talk for hours on end. | 0:02:11 | 0:02:16 | |
I'll sell you this buy-one get-one-free, 10p off, no, 20p! | 0:02:16 | 0:02:21 | |
HIGH SPEED GABBLING | 0:02:21 | 0:02:23 | |
I like acting because it's a good way of expressing myself. | 0:02:27 | 0:02:31 | |
Off the stage, now. Next! | 0:02:31 | 0:02:34 | |
Acting actually helps me with trading because it helps me | 0:02:34 | 0:02:38 | |
make the person believe that the thing I'm selling to them | 0:02:38 | 0:02:42 | |
is the best thing in the world. | 0:02:42 | 0:02:45 | |
I love street dancing. | 0:02:49 | 0:02:52 | |
I do R&B, I do gospel, I do all sorts of things. | 0:02:52 | 0:02:55 | |
I'm dying to do ballet. | 0:02:55 | 0:02:56 | |
It gives me the energy | 0:02:58 | 0:03:00 | |
that I use to run up and down and grab my bargains quickly. | 0:03:00 | 0:03:03 | |
And the girls have got a secret strategy for selling. | 0:03:03 | 0:03:08 | |
We're good at trading because if we don't get our way, | 0:03:08 | 0:03:10 | |
we can do puppy dog faces and the owner will give in. | 0:03:10 | 0:03:13 | |
Ooh, sneaky tactics, Trendz, but will it be enough | 0:03:13 | 0:03:17 | |
against your opposition? | 0:03:17 | 0:03:19 | |
We're Sky Limit and we're going to trade our way to the USA. | 0:03:19 | 0:03:25 | |
Best friends Kajal, Laraib and Hiba are no strangers to trading. | 0:03:25 | 0:03:29 | |
We used to go to the Sunday market and we used to sell things like | 0:03:29 | 0:03:34 | |
hair clips, jewellery. | 0:03:34 | 0:03:37 | |
My name's Laraib and I really like photography. | 0:03:39 | 0:03:42 | |
I've got a good eye for detail and | 0:03:42 | 0:03:45 | |
I think it'll be easy for me to spot a bargain. | 0:03:45 | 0:03:48 | |
My name's Hiba and I love reading. | 0:03:48 | 0:03:50 | |
I love escaping into a book and forgetting about myself. | 0:03:50 | 0:03:53 | |
My name is Kajal. I love using the computer. | 0:03:53 | 0:03:55 | |
I'm usually looking around for the best bargains online. | 0:03:55 | 0:03:59 | |
And the girls even practise trading with each other. | 0:03:59 | 0:04:02 | |
Say if I like something that Kajal's bought and I've | 0:04:02 | 0:04:05 | |
got something she likes, we don't mind trading with each other | 0:04:05 | 0:04:08 | |
because it's fun and you get what you want. | 0:04:08 | 0:04:11 | |
So it's the swap shop traders of | 0:04:11 | 0:04:13 | |
Sky Limit taking on the image-conscious Trendz. | 0:04:13 | 0:04:16 | |
Which team will take the most money and win today's challenge? | 0:04:16 | 0:04:20 | |
Today, our teams are at a great big car boot sale in Essex | 0:04:22 | 0:04:26 | |
where there are hundreds of stalls. | 0:04:26 | 0:04:28 | |
Let's reveal the trade challenge. | 0:04:28 | 0:04:31 | |
You're trading challenge is to make as much money as you can | 0:04:31 | 0:04:35 | |
from selling toys and games to people on a day out at the seaside. | 0:04:35 | 0:04:40 | |
But first you've got to buy products for your stalls, so I've brought you | 0:04:40 | 0:04:44 | |
here to Sadler's car-boot sale. | 0:04:44 | 0:04:47 | |
There are over 400 stalls here and you can buy anything | 0:04:47 | 0:04:51 | |
from board games to consoles. | 0:04:51 | 0:04:53 | |
The boot sale is packed with bargains and | 0:04:53 | 0:04:56 | |
there will be tons of toys and games and lots of haggling to be done. | 0:04:56 | 0:05:00 | |
Trendz and Sky Limit will have to search for the best things to sell | 0:05:00 | 0:05:04 | |
on their beachside stalls tomorrow. | 0:05:04 | 0:05:07 | |
Southend-on-Sea is a sunny holiday town in Essex | 0:05:07 | 0:05:11 | |
and there will be thousands of visitors looking for fun in the sun. | 0:05:11 | 0:05:15 | |
So today, at the boot sale, it's time to get buying. | 0:05:15 | 0:05:19 | |
There's £75 for each team. | 0:05:22 | 0:05:25 | |
Haggle hard and be quick because there are loads of people here | 0:05:25 | 0:05:29 | |
already trying to bag a bargain, OK? | 0:05:29 | 0:05:32 | |
Get on with it. | 0:05:32 | 0:05:34 | |
Trendz are straight off the starting block. | 0:05:37 | 0:05:40 | |
Excuse me, how much is that? | 0:05:40 | 0:05:42 | |
£2. | 0:05:42 | 0:05:43 | |
-Or a pound if you want it? -Yes, a pound. £1. Thank you. | 0:05:43 | 0:05:50 | |
A boogie board for a pound? That's a good buy for a beach stall. | 0:05:50 | 0:05:53 | |
-Oh! Water guns. -But where are they going to get the water from? | 0:05:54 | 0:06:00 | |
-The beach. Excuse me! How much for the guns? -£2. | 0:06:00 | 0:06:07 | |
No! We need to get it lower. | 0:06:07 | 0:06:10 | |
It's 10 minutes in and Sky Limit still haven't bought anything. | 0:06:12 | 0:06:17 | |
Compare, compare? | 0:06:17 | 0:06:19 | |
-Yeah, look around and compare. -Come on, Sky Limit. | 0:06:19 | 0:06:21 | |
You've got to chase those bargains! | 0:06:21 | 0:06:24 | |
-We're going to find the products somewhere else - cheaper. -Cheaper. | 0:06:24 | 0:06:27 | |
You could sell them separate or as a pack. | 0:06:27 | 0:06:30 | |
They're walking past some bargains here. | 0:06:32 | 0:06:35 | |
I just don't understand why they're not buying them. | 0:06:35 | 0:06:39 | |
-Here you go. -But there's no stopping Trendz from bargain spotting. | 0:06:41 | 0:06:46 | |
They've just found a huge inflatable ball. | 0:06:46 | 0:06:49 | |
-How much is it? -£3. -Can we get it at a lower price? | 0:06:49 | 0:06:52 | |
£2.50? | 0:06:52 | 0:06:54 | |
-We could do, yeah. -Yeah, all right. £2.50, please. | 0:06:54 | 0:06:57 | |
They just need to find a way to blow it up. | 0:06:57 | 0:06:59 | |
And now they've found some rubber rings. | 0:06:59 | 0:07:03 | |
If we get three, can we get them at a bargain? | 0:07:03 | 0:07:05 | |
Do it another £2.50, for three. | 0:07:05 | 0:07:07 | |
-There you go. -Thank you. -Thank you very much. | 0:07:09 | 0:07:12 | |
What was the deal on all of this? | 0:07:12 | 0:07:14 | |
There was three rubber rings, and they're meant to be £3, | 0:07:14 | 0:07:18 | |
but we got them all for £2.50. | 0:07:18 | 0:07:21 | |
The ball was meant to be £3, so we got that for £2.50 as well. | 0:07:21 | 0:07:25 | |
All right, and how much do you think you're going to sell this for? | 0:07:25 | 0:07:28 | |
£5. It's very big and it's a family ball as well. | 0:07:28 | 0:07:32 | |
Yeah, it's a great idea. I just hope it's not got a puncture in it. | 0:07:32 | 0:07:37 | |
Me too. | 0:07:37 | 0:07:38 | |
I like the way Trendz are thinking about where | 0:07:38 | 0:07:41 | |
they're going to be selling. | 0:07:41 | 0:07:43 | |
The things that we're going for are inflatables and beach things. | 0:07:43 | 0:07:46 | |
We're going for water guns, too, because when the kids get hot | 0:07:46 | 0:07:50 | |
they can always just spray water on themselves and have fun. | 0:07:50 | 0:07:53 | |
30 minutes into the challenge, | 0:07:55 | 0:07:57 | |
and I think Sky Limit are about to buy something. | 0:07:57 | 0:07:59 | |
They've spotted a toy rocket. | 0:07:59 | 0:08:02 | |
That's £1, then. | 0:08:06 | 0:08:08 | |
-Thank you. -One, two, three, four. -Thank you, bye. -So it was £1. | 0:08:08 | 0:08:13 | |
Did you haggle? | 0:08:13 | 0:08:14 | |
No, not necessary. | 0:08:14 | 0:08:17 | |
Why wasn't it necessary? | 0:08:17 | 0:08:19 | |
We thought it was quite cheap already. | 0:08:19 | 0:08:22 | |
Sky Limit, you've got to negotiate, whatever the price. | 0:08:22 | 0:08:25 | |
There's always room to bargain. | 0:08:25 | 0:08:28 | |
Excuse me. Would you do three for £2? | 0:08:30 | 0:08:33 | |
Trendz are really haggling. | 0:08:33 | 0:08:36 | |
Astrid is a natural born dealer. | 0:08:36 | 0:08:38 | |
-Would you do two for a fiver? -Did you say please? | 0:08:38 | 0:08:41 | |
-Please! -All right, then. | 0:08:41 | 0:08:43 | |
Thank you. 'We haggle the sellers' | 0:08:43 | 0:08:46 | |
so then we get it for a better price. | 0:08:46 | 0:08:48 | |
But what are Sky Limit looking at now? | 0:08:51 | 0:08:53 | |
That's a board game. Do people play those on the beach? | 0:08:53 | 0:08:57 | |
-And how much is the Me To You bear? -£1. | 0:08:59 | 0:09:02 | |
-85p. -80p. | 0:09:02 | 0:09:03 | |
THEY GIGGLE | 0:09:03 | 0:09:05 | |
85? | 0:09:05 | 0:09:06 | |
A good tip in business is think about where you're selling | 0:09:11 | 0:09:14 | |
as well as who you're selling to. | 0:09:14 | 0:09:16 | |
Your location can determine whether you're going to make | 0:09:16 | 0:09:19 | |
a profit or a loss. | 0:09:19 | 0:09:21 | |
We weren't thinking about the place we're going to be, so we need to get | 0:09:21 | 0:09:25 | |
something to do with the beach, something people would need | 0:09:25 | 0:09:28 | |
and they must have forgotten at home or something. | 0:09:28 | 0:09:32 | |
Oh, sunglasses. | 0:09:32 | 0:09:34 | |
Sky Limit decide sunglasses are a good idea. | 0:09:34 | 0:09:36 | |
Not toys or games, but a top buy for a sunny day. | 0:09:36 | 0:09:40 | |
If we buy six, how much can you give it for? | 0:09:40 | 0:09:43 | |
£3.90. I'll go to £3.90. | 0:09:43 | 0:09:46 | |
That's six sunglasses for £3.90. | 0:09:46 | 0:09:49 | |
-Kites! -Next, they find something that could fly off the stall. | 0:09:56 | 0:10:01 | |
-How much are the kites? -Kites are £1, the little ones. | 0:10:01 | 0:10:04 | |
-Each? -Each, yes. | 0:10:04 | 0:10:05 | |
What if we buy like three? | 0:10:05 | 0:10:07 | |
Three? You still won't get them no less than £1. | 0:10:07 | 0:10:11 | |
How much will you give 10 for? | 0:10:11 | 0:10:13 | |
-10, you can have them for £8. -It could be time to negotiate. | 0:10:13 | 0:10:17 | |
The trader's giving them the chance to buy in bulk, 10 for 80p each. | 0:10:17 | 0:10:22 | |
-Three for £1.50. -No! | 0:10:22 | 0:10:25 | |
-£1.70. -No. -Oh, please! -No! | 0:10:25 | 0:10:28 | |
Or I can sell you 30 for 12 quid. | 0:10:28 | 0:10:31 | |
No, we can't buy that many. | 0:10:31 | 0:10:34 | |
-Well, see. -30 for £12 - that works out to just 40p each. What a deal! | 0:10:34 | 0:10:41 | |
-Two for £2.50. -It's only 50p. | 0:10:41 | 0:10:45 | |
Thank you very much! | 0:10:45 | 0:10:47 | |
They've bought just two kites for £2. | 0:10:47 | 0:10:50 | |
10 or even 30 would have been a much better bargain. | 0:10:50 | 0:10:54 | |
My top tip to all you traders - when you're buying products, | 0:10:54 | 0:10:58 | |
try and buy them in bulk because you get a much cheaper price for them. | 0:10:58 | 0:11:02 | |
Trendz find the same trader. | 0:11:02 | 0:11:04 | |
-How do they get on? -How much are the kites? | 0:11:04 | 0:11:06 | |
You can have 10 for eight quid. | 0:11:06 | 0:11:11 | |
-OK. -Yes, please. | 0:11:11 | 0:11:13 | |
Or you can take 30... | 0:11:13 | 0:11:17 | |
for 12 quid. | 0:11:17 | 0:11:18 | |
No, we'll have 10 for £8. | 0:11:18 | 0:11:21 | |
Trendz do buy 10 kites for £8. | 0:11:21 | 0:11:24 | |
That's 80p each compared to Sky Limit's two for £2. | 0:11:24 | 0:11:28 | |
But neither team got the best bulk deal of 40p each. | 0:11:28 | 0:11:34 | |
What's happening? It's midday, | 0:11:34 | 0:11:36 | |
the hottest day of the year, and the stallholders are packing up. | 0:11:36 | 0:11:41 | |
The boot sale is closing early. How much money have you got left? | 0:11:41 | 0:11:45 | |
-£20. -You've still got £20 left? | 0:11:45 | 0:11:48 | |
Everybody is packing up. Go! | 0:11:48 | 0:11:51 | |
Would you like a carrier bag? | 0:11:54 | 0:11:56 | |
Thank you. | 0:11:56 | 0:11:58 | |
Trendz spot some fishing nets. Will they catch the customers? | 0:11:58 | 0:12:02 | |
Can we get five for £4? | 0:12:02 | 0:12:04 | |
-Yeah. Go on, then. -They get five for £4 - a £1 discount. | 0:12:04 | 0:12:10 | |
It's a race against time now before the end of the boot sale. | 0:12:12 | 0:12:18 | |
-Quickly, how much is it altogether? -That's six and two, eight quid. | 0:12:18 | 0:12:22 | |
£8 for the five of them. | 0:12:22 | 0:12:23 | |
-Yeah. -Two, four, six, eight, 10. | 0:12:23 | 0:12:28 | |
-That's 12. -OK, quickly. Thank you! | 0:12:28 | 0:12:32 | |
-£2? -£2 for all of them? -£1.50. -Yes. | 0:12:32 | 0:12:35 | |
-Go on, then. -Trendz just got a great deal there, | 0:12:35 | 0:12:38 | |
a huge bag of balls for £1.50. | 0:12:38 | 0:12:41 | |
-And Sky Limit are going back to the kite trader. -How much are they? | 0:12:41 | 0:12:45 | |
That lot - six quid for the lot, take the lot. | 0:12:45 | 0:12:48 | |
Get it, get it! | 0:12:48 | 0:12:50 | |
£6 for a stack of kites? A great bargain. And just in time. | 0:12:50 | 0:12:55 | |
The buying is over. | 0:12:55 | 0:12:58 | |
-I think we're done. -The deals are done. | 0:12:58 | 0:13:01 | |
What have the two teams spent that £75 trade fund on? | 0:13:01 | 0:13:07 | |
Trendz bought a lot of beach toys - | 0:13:07 | 0:13:09 | |
the boogie board for £1, fishing nets and water guns. | 0:13:09 | 0:13:13 | |
They've also got lots of balls and inflatables. | 0:13:13 | 0:13:17 | |
Sky Limit bought loads of kites, water guns and sunglasses. | 0:13:17 | 0:13:21 | |
But they've also got the board games and that cuddly bear. | 0:13:21 | 0:13:25 | |
That could be a risky strategy. | 0:13:25 | 0:13:28 | |
So, both teams have bought a big variety of toys and games | 0:13:28 | 0:13:33 | |
to stock up their beach stalls. | 0:13:33 | 0:13:35 | |
Now it's all about who sells best at the seaside. | 0:13:35 | 0:13:40 | |
Only one team will win and still be in with a chance of trading their | 0:13:40 | 0:13:44 | |
way to the USA, and being named Britain's best young traders. | 0:13:44 | 0:13:49 | |
Let the battle commence. | 0:13:49 | 0:13:51 | |
It's the selling day. Today, we're in sunny Southend-on-Sea. | 0:13:55 | 0:14:00 | |
It's baking hot and there are thousands of visitors | 0:14:00 | 0:14:03 | |
looking for fun on the beach, a ride on the fair, a walk along | 0:14:03 | 0:14:07 | |
the longest pier in the world. | 0:14:07 | 0:14:10 | |
Trendz, how are you feeling? | 0:14:10 | 0:14:12 | |
We're very excited to be here and we're going to be walking | 0:14:12 | 0:14:15 | |
-away with our heads held up high. -Fighting talk. | 0:14:15 | 0:14:18 | |
Sky Limit, how are you feeling? | 0:14:18 | 0:14:19 | |
We're very confident and excited, and we just want to wish | 0:14:19 | 0:14:23 | |
Trendz good luck. With competition like us, they're going to need it. | 0:14:23 | 0:14:26 | |
Woo! I gave you £75 to buy toys and games, | 0:14:26 | 0:14:31 | |
and today you're at the seaside because this is where | 0:14:31 | 0:14:34 | |
you're going to sell all the items that you've bought. | 0:14:34 | 0:14:37 | |
Now, whoever takes the most money today is the challenge winner. | 0:14:37 | 0:14:41 | |
The winner gets a chance to go to one of our semi finals, | 0:14:41 | 0:14:44 | |
and if you win that you'll be trading in New York. | 0:14:44 | 0:14:48 | |
May the best trading team win. | 0:14:48 | 0:14:51 | |
They have just three hours to sell. The pressure is on to get set up. | 0:14:54 | 0:14:58 | |
The image-conscious Trendz are working on a tidy | 0:14:58 | 0:15:02 | |
but colourful-looking stall. Your stall is beginning to look nice. | 0:15:02 | 0:15:06 | |
You perhaps need more stuff on there, don't you? | 0:15:06 | 0:15:09 | |
What are you doing blowing that thing up? | 0:15:09 | 0:15:11 | |
-Trying to get it good. -You're going to be there all day, aren't you? | 0:15:11 | 0:15:14 | |
Worth a try. | 0:15:14 | 0:15:16 | |
'You're going to need a lot of puff to get that blown up, Astrid.' | 0:15:16 | 0:15:20 | |
Trendz are doing well. They're taking time to make sure their stall | 0:15:20 | 0:15:24 | |
looks nice, colourful, and I just hope they get their pricing right. | 0:15:24 | 0:15:28 | |
I think we should sell the boogie board for about a tenner, | 0:15:28 | 0:15:32 | |
because we only bought it for £1. | 0:15:32 | 0:15:34 | |
It's worth £10 and we bought it for £1, that would be very good. | 0:15:34 | 0:15:37 | |
Yeah, we bought it £1, and it's very light | 0:15:37 | 0:15:39 | |
and comfortable and loads of people will enjoy it. | 0:15:39 | 0:15:42 | |
If Trendz do sell that boogie board for £10, it'll be a £9 profit. | 0:15:42 | 0:15:47 | |
We'll be about 10 minutes | 0:15:47 | 0:15:48 | |
and then you can buy some things, yeah? | 0:15:48 | 0:15:51 | |
Sky Limit's strategy is to go | 0:15:51 | 0:15:53 | |
big on the advertising with lots of posters. | 0:15:53 | 0:15:58 | |
-Sky Limit, how are you getting on? -Fine. | 0:15:58 | 0:16:01 | |
-We're trying to prepare our stall. -OK, prepare your stall. | 0:16:01 | 0:16:05 | |
Still lots of things in packaging here. | 0:16:05 | 0:16:07 | |
Yep, we're just getting ready | 0:16:07 | 0:16:09 | |
with posters so that people are attracted to our stall. | 0:16:09 | 0:16:11 | |
They're working hard to get set up. | 0:16:13 | 0:16:16 | |
Who's going to show off their products the best? | 0:16:16 | 0:16:20 | |
Both teams have bought lots of kites, but I wonder how many are | 0:16:20 | 0:16:24 | |
going to have them out on display and take advantage of the wind. | 0:16:24 | 0:16:28 | |
It's time to trade. | 0:16:29 | 0:16:31 | |
Teams, start selling. | 0:16:33 | 0:16:36 | |
Sky Limit aren't ready and they're still talking prices. | 0:16:39 | 0:16:42 | |
£4 at least. | 0:16:42 | 0:16:44 | |
Maximum around six. | 0:16:44 | 0:16:47 | |
Because there's lots of customers walking by, they don't seem to be | 0:16:47 | 0:16:51 | |
grabbing the customers. They're focusing too much on their stall. | 0:16:51 | 0:16:54 | |
Over with Trendz, and there's interest in the boogie board, | 0:16:57 | 0:17:00 | |
and they want £10 for it. | 0:17:00 | 0:17:03 | |
We just made our first tenner! | 0:17:03 | 0:17:06 | |
That's brilliant. | 0:17:06 | 0:17:08 | |
Trendz have made their first sale. | 0:17:08 | 0:17:10 | |
They bought the boogie board for a pound and sold it for 10 quid! | 0:17:10 | 0:17:14 | |
We've got the upper hand now. They ain't sold anything. | 0:17:14 | 0:17:16 | |
Don't speak too soon, Astrid. | 0:17:16 | 0:17:19 | |
It looks like Sky Limit are now ready for business. | 0:17:19 | 0:17:23 | |
And just in time, too, as they sell an inflatable beach ball. | 0:17:23 | 0:17:26 | |
We're really happy. It was just there on display | 0:17:28 | 0:17:31 | |
and the girls got attracted to it, so we're happy with our first sale | 0:17:31 | 0:17:35 | |
because it's the price we wanted. | 0:17:35 | 0:17:37 | |
And it looks like Sky Limit's advertising idea is working. | 0:17:41 | 0:17:45 | |
Someone is interested in that cuddly toy. | 0:17:45 | 0:17:48 | |
Awww! | 0:17:48 | 0:17:49 | |
Got to pay! You've got to pay. | 0:17:51 | 0:17:53 | |
Go and give it to the ladies. | 0:17:53 | 0:17:55 | |
Thank you! | 0:17:57 | 0:17:59 | |
-Sky Limit, how are you getting on? -Quite well. | 0:18:00 | 0:18:06 | |
OK, so have you got a strategy? | 0:18:06 | 0:18:07 | |
We attract the children and then the adults. | 0:18:07 | 0:18:10 | |
Kids first. When kids get stubborn, they get what they want. | 0:18:10 | 0:18:13 | |
So get to the kids first and then to the parents. | 0:18:13 | 0:18:16 | |
'That's good tactics, Sky Limit.' | 0:18:16 | 0:18:20 | |
Over at Trendz' stall, they need to work fast to win over the crowds. | 0:18:20 | 0:18:25 | |
Come and buy something! | 0:18:25 | 0:18:27 | |
It's getting busy now and there are a lot of customers. | 0:18:27 | 0:18:33 | |
They've got to grab those customers if they want to make a sale. | 0:18:33 | 0:18:36 | |
So Trendz decide on a new approach - | 0:18:38 | 0:18:40 | |
go straight to the customer. They head out to the beach. | 0:18:40 | 0:18:44 | |
Thank you. | 0:18:44 | 0:18:46 | |
It's looking like a great strategy. | 0:18:46 | 0:18:48 | |
Trendz bought five of these fishing nets for £4, | 0:18:52 | 0:18:55 | |
and they're selling them for £1 each. | 0:18:55 | 0:18:57 | |
-There you go. -Thank you. | 0:18:59 | 0:19:01 | |
Joyce, we've only got one left. | 0:19:05 | 0:19:07 | |
'That's good going, Astrid.' | 0:19:08 | 0:19:10 | |
'But you'll need to sell all five to make a profit on those nets.' | 0:19:10 | 0:19:17 | |
Would anyone like to buy a fishing net? Thank you. | 0:19:17 | 0:19:19 | |
'And the last one is sold.' | 0:19:19 | 0:19:21 | |
Trendz have made just a pound profit on the nets, but it's not stopping | 0:19:21 | 0:19:25 | |
Astrid's enthusiasm. | 0:19:25 | 0:19:27 | |
We've made so much money just by | 0:19:27 | 0:19:28 | |
walking along saying, "Do you want to buy this, do you want to buy that?" | 0:19:28 | 0:19:31 | |
And everyone is buying it. It's really good. | 0:19:31 | 0:19:34 | |
We're halfway through the selling challenge and both teams still have | 0:19:34 | 0:19:38 | |
a lot of things left. | 0:19:38 | 0:19:39 | |
-Got any green ones? -Yeah! | 0:19:41 | 0:19:43 | |
Sky Limit haven't found a buyer for | 0:19:43 | 0:19:45 | |
that board game, and they've also got lots of water guns. | 0:19:45 | 0:19:50 | |
Water guns, we bought loads of them. I think we should start... | 0:19:50 | 0:19:52 | |
£1 each, and the bigger ones around £2. | 0:19:52 | 0:19:58 | |
Time for a customer-grabbing tactic. | 0:19:58 | 0:20:00 | |
Attract their attention by making lots of noise. | 0:20:00 | 0:20:03 | |
Water guns! Mini water guns! | 0:20:06 | 0:20:08 | |
We think having a water fight is a really good idea because... | 0:20:13 | 0:20:16 | |
It attracts more attention. | 0:20:16 | 0:20:18 | |
People see how much fun we're having. | 0:20:18 | 0:20:21 | |
We're having fun and selling at the same time. | 0:20:21 | 0:20:23 | |
-Good profit. -'The tactics got them customers.' | 0:20:23 | 0:20:27 | |
But Astrid can shout as loud. | 0:20:29 | 0:20:32 | |
-Water guns! -Water guns, £1! | 0:20:32 | 0:20:36 | |
She's on their turf, undercutting their price, and | 0:20:36 | 0:20:39 | |
Kajal isn't having any of it. | 0:20:39 | 0:20:41 | |
With one hour to go, the stalls are quiet. | 0:20:44 | 0:20:47 | |
But just along the promenade, the funfair is packed. | 0:20:47 | 0:20:51 | |
So both teams decide to get out selling. | 0:20:55 | 0:20:58 | |
Excuse me, would you like to buy something? | 0:21:01 | 0:21:03 | |
Astrid and Joyce are loaded with kites and looking for customers. | 0:21:03 | 0:21:07 | |
But they aren't having much luck. | 0:21:07 | 0:21:08 | |
Would you like to buy any water guns or bubbles? | 0:21:08 | 0:21:11 | |
Not at the moment. | 0:21:11 | 0:21:13 | |
Hiba and Laraib are pushing those sunglasses. | 0:21:15 | 0:21:18 | |
Mini water guns, only 40p. | 0:21:19 | 0:21:21 | |
'And they head straight for people eating their lunch.' | 0:21:21 | 0:21:24 | |
You can't get a better price than that. | 0:21:24 | 0:21:26 | |
'Smart thinking, Sky Limit.' | 0:21:26 | 0:21:29 | |
OK, thank you. | 0:21:31 | 0:21:33 | |
That wind is blowing and I think both teams have been | 0:21:33 | 0:21:37 | |
missing a trick. | 0:21:37 | 0:21:38 | |
Finally they start to demonstrate their kites on the beach. | 0:21:38 | 0:21:46 | |
My top tip is when you're selling, try and demonstrate your product | 0:21:46 | 0:21:53 | |
because it helps the customer to buy and you can close that deal. | 0:21:53 | 0:21:57 | |
Thank you. | 0:21:58 | 0:21:59 | |
Although both teams have kites, Sky Limit have lots more, and they're | 0:22:01 | 0:22:05 | |
selling them for lower prices. | 0:22:05 | 0:22:07 | |
There's bargains. | 0:22:07 | 0:22:09 | |
Would you like to buy a kite? | 0:22:09 | 0:22:11 | |
Come to our stall. Kites, 70p. | 0:22:11 | 0:22:15 | |
-How much is a kite? -70p. -70p, all right. -Thank you very much. | 0:22:19 | 0:22:24 | |
We've sold quite a lot but we really need some more customers. | 0:22:28 | 0:22:31 | |
We've got to win this. | 0:22:31 | 0:22:33 | |
Get your beach essentials here. | 0:22:33 | 0:22:35 | |
Low, low prices. | 0:22:35 | 0:22:36 | |
With just 10 minutes to go, both teams pick up the pace. | 0:22:36 | 0:22:40 | |
Finally someone is interested in that big bag of balls | 0:22:43 | 0:22:47 | |
that Trendz bought for £1.50. | 0:22:47 | 0:22:50 | |
If they'd divided them up, | 0:22:52 | 0:22:53 | |
and sold them separately, they'd have taken more money. | 0:22:53 | 0:22:57 | |
Now they sell them for just £1. | 0:22:57 | 0:22:59 | |
-I'll take two kites. -Thank you very much. | 0:23:08 | 0:23:11 | |
It all has to go soon. | 0:23:11 | 0:23:13 | |
Pushing for sales, Sky Limit are asking the customers to | 0:23:16 | 0:23:19 | |
make up their own prices. | 0:23:19 | 0:23:21 | |
We'll sell them to you as cheap as you want. | 0:23:21 | 0:23:23 | |
Make us an offer and we'll sell it to you. | 0:23:23 | 0:23:26 | |
Fun to play for the whole family. | 0:23:28 | 0:23:30 | |
And look, they've finally sold that board game for just 50p. | 0:23:36 | 0:23:39 | |
With just minutes to go, both teams offer rock-bottom prices. | 0:23:42 | 0:23:48 | |
Everything 10p! | 0:23:48 | 0:23:50 | |
10p! Everything 10p! | 0:23:50 | 0:23:52 | |
10p! Everything 10p. | 0:23:53 | 0:23:55 | |
I want it, I bartered for that one. | 0:23:55 | 0:23:58 | |
Selling time is over. | 0:24:00 | 0:24:03 | |
That's it. No more selling, no more taking money, please. | 0:24:06 | 0:24:09 | |
Your stall is closed down. No more selling. It's finished. | 0:24:09 | 0:24:13 | |
Sold out. | 0:24:15 | 0:24:17 | |
'Wow. Trendz have sold out, but they had | 0:24:17 | 0:24:19 | |
'lots of things at very low prices. | 0:24:19 | 0:24:22 | |
'Sky Limit had higher prices but are still left | 0:24:22 | 0:24:25 | |
'with stock on their stall. | 0:24:25 | 0:24:27 | |
'It's been a tight competition. | 0:24:27 | 0:24:30 | |
'But who has taken the most money and which team could still be in | 0:24:30 | 0:24:33 | |
'with a chance of trading their way to the USA and being named | 0:24:33 | 0:24:37 | |
'Britain's best young trader?' | 0:24:37 | 0:24:39 | |
Trendz, Sky Limit, the trading challenge is over. | 0:24:41 | 0:24:46 | |
You've both worked incredibly hard and done very, very well. | 0:24:46 | 0:24:50 | |
What was your highlight? | 0:24:50 | 0:24:52 | |
My highlight of the day was when they bought the body board, | 0:24:52 | 0:24:54 | |
because we bought it for £1 and sold it for 10. | 0:24:54 | 0:24:56 | |
That was amazing profit. | 0:24:56 | 0:24:58 | |
The highlight of my day was when people was buying | 0:24:58 | 0:25:01 | |
masses and masses of kites. | 0:25:01 | 0:25:03 | |
They was giving us such a good price for it. | 0:25:03 | 0:25:06 | |
Fantastic. What about Sky Limit? What was your highlight? | 0:25:06 | 0:25:09 | |
My highlight was when we were working as a team and we sold loads | 0:25:09 | 0:25:12 | |
of stuff together, and when little children came up to us, | 0:25:12 | 0:25:15 | |
we interacted with them and made them buy stuff. | 0:25:15 | 0:25:17 | |
The moment of truth has arrived. | 0:25:17 | 0:25:20 | |
Who has won | 0:25:20 | 0:25:22 | |
the trading challenge? | 0:25:22 | 0:25:24 | |
Sky Limit, your takings were... | 0:25:28 | 0:25:32 | |
£77.31. | 0:25:34 | 0:25:38 | |
Trendz, your takings were... | 0:25:42 | 0:25:47 | |
£73.49. | 0:25:52 | 0:25:55 | |
Oh my God! | 0:26:00 | 0:26:02 | |
We're really happy. We feel sad at the same time as well because... | 0:26:02 | 0:26:05 | |
We're now friends. | 0:26:05 | 0:26:07 | |
We were kind of close to them but kind of got to know each other. | 0:26:07 | 0:26:10 | |
You've got to give me a smile and a high five for taking part. | 0:26:10 | 0:26:14 | |
Sky Limit, you are today's trading challenge winners. | 0:26:17 | 0:26:22 | |
Well done, and enjoy. | 0:26:22 | 0:26:24 | |
So, Sky Limit have won, making £77.31. That's a £2.31 profit. | 0:26:27 | 0:26:33 | |
Let's look at the leaderboard. | 0:26:35 | 0:26:37 | |
Remember, only the four winning teams who take the most money | 0:26:37 | 0:26:40 | |
make it into the semi finals. | 0:26:40 | 0:26:43 | |
Sky Limit haven't made it through. | 0:26:43 | 0:26:46 | |
The top four teams are Prosperity, Aspire, Sapphire and Impulse. | 0:26:46 | 0:26:51 | |
They're still in with a chance of competing in the grand final | 0:26:51 | 0:26:55 | |
in New York and being named Britain's best young traders. | 0:26:55 | 0:26:59 | |
Next time on Trade Your Way To The USA, | 0:27:01 | 0:27:05 | |
there's a strange whiff in the air. | 0:27:05 | 0:27:07 | |
It stinks so bad. | 0:27:07 | 0:27:09 | |
Our two teams take on the task of becoming cheese connoisseurs. | 0:27:09 | 0:27:12 | |
It's sort of nutty, yeah. | 0:27:12 | 0:27:15 | |
And battle it out at a farmers' market. | 0:27:15 | 0:27:18 | |
-Bread with cheese. -You want to buy some cheese? | 0:27:18 | 0:27:21 | |
But who will gain enough wedge to be crowned winners? | 0:27:21 | 0:27:25 | |
