Meet Ready Pouch.
Ready Pouch is our fictional example business. Its proposed product is a small pencil pouch for students.
Start with a possible problem
Some students who move between classrooms may struggle to find loose pens when a lesson starts. This could delay their work.
This is a starting assumption. We do not yet know how common the problem is, what would help, or who might pay.
Follow the decisions
In Unit 1, Tasks 1–3, we explore the customer problem before choosing a product. Later examples consider a small pencil pouch and show how research could change the idea.
We use the same business to explain choices about products, prices, costs, and other parts of the project. The example is a way to practise reasoning. Your own business can follow a different path.
Use your own evidence
Its example research and figures are invented. Use your own evidence for your project.
Ready Pouch has no real interviews, purchases, or sales results. Its financial figures are simplified teaching examples. Example amounts use US dollars; use one suitable currency for your own project.
