Explain How Your Curriculum Works
The curriculum is more than just theory, it's an experiental tool. Each lesson provides application activities for every step to start a business.
For instance, at the end of Lesson 3 - the student will have determine what they are working toward (i.e. $300 for summer camp); completed a purchase order and a prospect list, determined their sales price, named and designed a coffee label, make cold phone calls and had their first sales presentation. At the end of Lessons 4 through 7 the student will have completed an income statement, personal budget sheet, conducted a questionnaire, learned general business operations, sought avenues of publicity and administered customer service techniques.
Give me more information
We recommend that students establish their new coffee business with people who already purchase coffee on a regular basis. The goal is to maintain a business for at least a year. However, it is truly the student's decision how long their business should run.
The coffee is a high-quality coffee that comes from Arabica beans grown on the hills of Colombia. It comes fresh from the roaster once a month and wholesales to students for $5.00 a pound.
What is the recommended age?
The curriculum is recommended for children Grade 3 and up adapting various aspects to ensure the best results for each student's ability.
How much time commitment?
Seven easy-to-follow scripted lessons come with supplemental activities and forms to support the business. Most lessons can be taught in less than one hour. Older students can easily teach themselves.
