Entrepreneurship is not a quality that's reserved for adults only. As a student, you have a unique opportunity to explore your entrepreneurial spirit and learn valuable skills that can set you up for future success. Here are a few reasons why you should consider starting a business while you're still in school:
Financial Independence: Making your own money can give you a sense of financial independence. It can also help you learn the value of money and how to manage it wisely.
Step 1: Research: Identify popular candies among peers and school policies about selling food items.
Step 2: Capital and Supply:
Gather initial capital and buy candies at wholesale prices. If you dont have money to start just borrow 10$ from your mum to get start. You can easily scale from there
Step 3: Pricing: Set prices that cover costs, provide profit, and are acceptable to peers. Don't have to worry about setting too high of a price unless you have competition. This is because what you are actually providing is convenience.
Step 4: Marketing: Spread the word about your candy business through various channels. You can create a whatsapp or telegram channel just to showcase what goods you have.
Step 5: Selling: Choose strategic times and locations to sell your candies. Best time to sell will be during recess time as you get to meet students from other classes
Step 6: Customer Service: Be friendly, listen to customers, and adapt based on feedback. You need to maintain your name as a reliable candy supplier in your school. Over time, you don't have to look for customers, customers look for you
