Student Quotes:

  • When entrepreneurs invest in new things, they take risks. And when they finally succeed in creating something that is high in demand, they are paid by marketers. These marketers sell the product for lots of money to try to pay off all the money lost in previous investments. When something is high in demand, its price will be high. But once demand lowers over time, the price will decrease.
     

  • Every business needs to find different ways to reach the consumers. This is called advertising. When you advertise, you build your brand and it's important to advertise in a positive way.

  • It is important to advertise your business to show why it is different and better than its competition. If a business isn't advertised, people won't know about it! It is also important to always tell the truth to clients and customers. Treat others as you wish to be treated.

  • The key thing for today is to state your ideas, otherwise no one will know whether its good or not. Good ideas may come in handy one day so its best you let it out in the open and see what other people can do to help you with that idea. ?

     

  • "If your service is outstanding; you will always stand out." ... Ethan

  • "One way to get ahead of your competition is to be nice and treat your customers with respect." ... Avery

  • "Good customer service can be a deciding factor for customers. That is why it it important to treat customers and clients with respect. Making and keeping customers as friends also helps with making the business seem friendly".... Luke
