The second semester of CEO is focused on students developing their own business idea and going from business plan to launching their business at the end of year Trade Show. They are currently working through a financial spreadsheet that helps them understand their 'numbers'. Potentially one of the more intimidating pieces of their journey is making sure the numbers work. This exercise aligns with any business that may need some help to get started as they talk with Bankers. In preparation for Banker Day next week, students are identifying costs of goods sold, mark up, price points for products/services, direct costs and indirect costs. It's fun to watch them continue to discover what their packaging looks like, best vendors, wholesale vs retail etc. They have worked hard this week and getting into the details. Excited for more that is to come!
