One venture idea I have thought of is to sell the service of tutoring. This is actually very bad timing, as the best time to start my business in school would be a week or two before the Midterm Break. However, learning is on-going, and there will always be a need for tutors. My strongest subject is mathematics, and I am able to teach it very well. This will be a great venture idea because many of my friends have been telling me to tutor them, thus having demand for the service. Startup costs are extremely low; I won't have to pitch in money to pay for heat, electricity, or any other miscellaneous expenses because I will probably be using public locations for my tutoring sessions. I won't have to pay for supplies since the students will bring their own work, paper, and writing utensils. The only legitimate expense is transportation and food. That is why the venture idea of tutoring students in math will be a great one; it is easy to execute.
Another venture idea is selling school supplies in school. In the past years, DT has had a similar project called the Trojan Junior, where they sold supplies and winter gear to the students. It wasn't very successful because students just wouldn't buy from there, and I plan to bring it back. With the Winter time rolling away, there will be no need to sell cheap winter gear; I will be foucusing on selling school supplies. This is a great idea because there is always a demand for school supplies simply beacause students need them in a school environment. There will always be times when they run out of paper, lead, ink, pencils, and pens, and that is where I will step in. However, this venture idea will be very hard to execute because I believe that students will rather borrow from their friends than to buy new supplies. But overall, this idea is very suitable in a learning environment, and the supplies will sell.
