Pitch Week

This week we worked a lot with our new groups in order to prepare for our pitch today!  We have to pitch our ideas to the investors and if they invest then we get $20-$22 to start our business!  I think that we found pretty good prices in order to maintain our money.  We found 12 donuts for under $3 and muffins for $3.  This week we also took a test that was pretty easy and just a review from econ and we were learning the same information in Government.  We also practiced our phone calls which I actually thought was a lot of fun and probably the thing I liked most this week.  We got with a partner and went over phone calls which was kind of awkward with being in front of the class and pairing with your friends that make you laugh.  Personally, I like to be alone when I call for something important.  We also learned the right way to dress for a business meeting which we all get to be tested on today because we had to dress up in order to give our pitch.  I think that this business assignment will be fun because it gives us a chance to see how a minor business works.  We are able to see how to distribute money, use the money we were given, and the money we have earned.  It is good to be in the morning because a lot of people do not eat breakfast so there is something already waiting for them at school.  I think that our "business" is going to be very successful! Along with all the other ones :)

  3. I can't wait to start selling donuts tomorrow. :) I'm glad that we came up with a plan on how to go the first week so that everyone would buy donuts and muffins in the morning because they haven't seen them being sold at school before! I agree with what Hannah said, your outfit was so cute! The only bad thing about selling the muffins and donuts is that the online prices for muffins lied...and the deals for muffins were horrible. I also agree that out business will be very successful. :)
