Every year,over
40.000 secondary students in Britain run a business.“Each business
runs for one year,”said Ben.one of the group of students visiting Shanghai.“When we started
our business.we borrowed money from parents and friends.At the end of the year.,these
people will receive some of the profits.”I asked Ben whether running
a business was difficult.He said that it was no problem.He said that they
always received a lot of advice from teachers and business people.
Another member of
the group.Regina,told me the four questions they always asked themselves.The
questions are:
1.What do people want to buy?
2.Where is a good place to
sell our product?
3.How is our product better
than other products?
4.How much is our product?
I was also very
interseted in how the group was organized.Regina said that there were usually
about five to seven students in each business and among them are one manager
and one accountant.I asked them who was the manager.“I am,of course,”said Regina.“It was my idea to
produce picture books,”she said.“Other groups in our school sell thinks like T-shirts,videos and
computer games,”said Ben.
“How much money do
the businesses usually make?”I asked.“Some businesses make $ 20,000---30,000,but most groups make a small
profit of about $ 1,000---3,000.”said Regina.I asked them
what they did with the profits.“We can do what we like with the profits.”However.Regina told me that
it was important not to waste the money.She always told the other groups to
give the money to charity.
