Selling
Earthen Lamps In The Short Break of the Senior School
On September 26, 2017, the business team comprising of
grade 11 and 12 students sold earthen lamps to students and teachers of the
Senior School. A mélange of eye catching earthen lamps prepared by the students
of grade 6 to 9 of the Eco Club during their Club activity periods from old
earthen lamps were displayed for sale.
We got first hand exposure of running a business enterprise
independently and how to deal with different kinds of customers. We just had 10 minutes to sell our products
and within no time all the beautiful products put up for sale were bought. We
had made the announcement in the morning assembly for two days prior to the
Fundraising Event asking interested students and teachers to bring change of
INR 10 or INR 20 as that would be the price of the lamps. We learnt how to take
a quick decision while dealing with the customers, how to manage a large crowd
in limited time as well as to count cash meticulously in a short span of
time.
