PRODUCE SIMPLE
PRODUCTS
 LESSON 1
After going through this module, you are expected to:

1.Plan simple products to sell;

2. Produce simple products to sell; and
3. Cite examples of goods and services in different
production areas.
As a 6th Grader, do you think it is
possible for you to earn money by
producing simple products and
services? Why?
Think of what goods and services can
be made from each production. The
first production area is answered for
you.
To become an ideal entrepreneur, you must
  

understand the market and the human

motivation for buying and selling a product
or service based on needs, wants, and
demands. Always keep consideration on what
you need rather that what you want.
Entrepreurship – is the pursuit of opportunity
beyond resources controlled.
Entrepreneur – is “a person who starts a
business and is willing to risk loss in order to
make money. Desires to establish a business
that will be able to produce new and simple
products
Planning Simple Products to Sell
Are you creative, inventive and resourceful? Are you
observant of the people and things around you and find
ways and means of converting some of the things you see
into marketable items and products? If for instance, you
see a pile of old magazines and newspapers in your
garage, what can you do with this to make it marketable?
Young boys and girls like you can be potential
entrepreneur. Use your creativity and
resourcefulness, as well as your skill, to create
simple products to sell. To ensure that your
products will be sold, you need to make a simple
survey, whether in your school or in your
neighborhood to identify what potential customers
need.
A simple survey can be an interview with some
classmates in your school if you intend to sell in school
or residents in the neighborhood or in the school. Then
look around you to find out if what they need is already
available in neighborhood or in the school. If it is not yet
available, or if it is available but it is not enough to meet
the demand, then decide on whether to create the product
needed, and what product it would be.
 Producing Simple Products to Sell
Once you have identified the needs of the people in your
community and have identified the product you want to
produce, you can now plan your budget, the materials and
the tools needed, and the schedule of operation. If you do
not have the skill to produce, you can either buy the
product from its primary source where it is cheaper, or
buy the product in bulk or in wholesale, then repack it in
smaller quantities for retailing.
Simple products like roasted peanuts, varieties of
cookies, pumpkin seeds, corn chips, cakes, cupcakes,
polvoron, candies like pastillas, yema and varieties of
hard candies; accessories like bracelets, necklaces,
headbands and the like which are popular among
students in schools, are saleable items. School items
like writing tools, pencil cases, writing pads and
erasers are needed by pupils.
One of the slogans in marketing today is
that “if you do not have a market, create
one!” this means create a demand for your
product through salesmanship and good
quality product at a reasonable price.
Remember
1. Potential entrepreneurs are creative,inventive and resourceful.
2. To determine needs/demands of potential customers, make a
survey in the school or neighborhood. Interview these potential
customers and scan the neighborhood and school with products
already available on sale.
3. Once you have decided what product to produce, prepare your
budgets, tools and materials, and schedule of operation
