How To Start A Side Hustle For Under $100! | School Holiday Program

How To Start A Side Hustle is a one-day school holiday startup experience for high school students who want to learn how to start a business while they are still at school. Throughout the day, students will: • Hear from young entrepreneurs in the morning and learn how they started, what worked, what didn’t and the advice they would give to other students. • Build a business idea based on their skills, interests, hobbies or opportunities they see around them. • Identify their customer and explore who would actually buy their product or service. • Create a brand including the name, look, messaging and how they could market it. • Develop their product or service and think through what they are offering, how it works and what makes it different. • Explore sales and marketing including how to attract customers, price an offer and make their first sales. • Plan their next steps so they leave knowing what they need to do to keep building their idea after the workshop. Students can attend with an existing business idea or start completely from scratch. By the end of the day, students will have worked through the key stages of turning an idea into a real business opportunity, while building confidence and connecting with other young people interested in entrepreneurship.
