Small Business Project



             Ideas.
             We all wanted to have fun with our mini company so we decided that a bake sale would be something we all could enjoy. We did a brainstorm of various ideas such as a bake sale, making arts & crafts and organizing a sports day. We decided not to organize the sports day because it would be too big an event for the four of us to control. Amy was the only member in our group who had an artistic talent so we decided not to make arts & crafts because all the responsibility would be on Amy. We all agreed on a cake sale because we felt it would benefit us all in one way and we each could contribute to the group with our own talents.

             Researching the Market.
             There was a bake sale on in our school a few years back and this inspired us to organize our own bake sale because we seen how successful their bake sale had been and we felt ours could be just as successful. I was asked to create a survey since I was the only member of the group with a printer at home. I typed up the survey and printed multiple copies when I was finished. The survey had various cakes on it such as cookies, cupcakes, muffins etc. and asked how much people would be willing to pay for these cakes. We got students around the school to fill out the survey. This helped us to get ideas on what cakes to provide. We analyzed the results and found the brownies, muffins and rice crispy buns were the most popular choice. This survey helped us to decide what cakes to make and how much to charge for them.
             Production/ Planning .
             My personal role in the group was production. My responsibility was to provide the cakes. I purchased flower, eggs, milk and baking chocolate in my local shop. Each member of our group contributed €10 for the raw materials. I baked the cakes in my kitchen on Thursday the 12th of December.
             Marketing our Products.
             We made posters on the computers in our school and stuck them on the walls of our school. The posters were bright, colorful and wrote in a large font to catch peoples eye.
