Micro Business Simulation enables students to gain real-world experience in running a business!

Micro Business is an easy-to-use program that introduces students to the experience of running their own micro business. It’s the perfect first step for students to learn the basics of running a business. It also offers the opportunity to apply concepts in other subjects such as math, finance, career, or general life skills in a fun business setting.

Like a flight simulator for business, Micro Business puts the student in the role of the owner of a mobile business cart, where he or she must decide what products to sell and where and when to sell them in order to maximize profits. It’s easy to use, visual, interactive, and exciting!

No correcting needed by the teacher as all student evaluations are performed by the software!
 

Students manage all the key aspects of their own virtual business including:

  • Pricing products

  • Buying inventory

  • Advertising

  • Reviewing financial statements

  • Hiring employees

  • Managing schedules

  • And more!
Micro Business Simulation asks students to choose their type of business (hot dogs, popcorn, ice cream, clothing, jewelry, or electronics), select a logo, create a business name, write a business plan, select products, and establish financing.

The perfect complement to any business course or curriculum!

Unlike any book, course, or seminar, Micro Business enables students to gain real-world experience in running a business. Students monitor their success by evaluating profitability, market share, personal stress, and customer satisfaction.

Students can try their business skills on their own, against classmates, or compete with the computerized businesses in the simulation. Micro Business is a practical learning experience that gives students the confidence to explore starting and running their own small business!

The simulation can be used in either a self-directed or facilitated learning environment.

Play again and again—every new simulation that is run is different!
