I want to become an Entrepreneur and start my own business later on, so I took part in deciding what business Cassie, Nicolas and I are gonna do!

Meetings, Meetings!

We held many meetings, and in those meetings, we brainstormed different ideas. When we thought of ideas, we needed to think about our Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats. And also the customer’s needs, our product’s Replicability, Scalability,  and Sustainability. And last but not least, we need to think about the ROI or the return on Investment. Finally, we picked out 9 ideas that we thought were good, then we evaluated each of them and picked out the best.

Educational App

We decided to make an online educational product, it can be a game or an app. And later on, we can combine it with some offline classes using the online content/product we made.

I Need to Think and Rethink Before I Decide What Business to Do

• I need to think about a lot when I’m deciding what business I’m gonna do.
