The Case: Story of Samara

Samara and her friends have always been fascinated by the sheer power of business. However,
no business starts without planning and therefore Samara and her friends sat together to discuss
the idea. They also made a note that they needed to convince their family members (Mom, Dad
orUncle) to fund them. One thing they were all certain of was that they wouldn\'t be able to
afford a physical store and would have to adopt an online platform as their storefront.
They opted for Facebook.
But what to sell? They knew they did not want to become just another Facebook-based business
selling fashion clothing and jewelry, watches, and other accessories. They would need to be
innovative in selecting the product to sell through their online store. With so many questions to
answer regarding the business, they started designing slides so that they could convince the
Mom, Dad, or the Uncle. They needed to come up with a compelling storyline supported by
nicely designed slides to do the convincing.
Assume that you are bestowed with the task of designing that WOW slides to get the approval
from the family members. Design the best slides of your life to help Samara pursue her dream
and start the online store up and running!
