The Student-Made™ Feasibility Study

Why a feasibility study?

Before committing to a full year of our program, our team will help assess the potential value of Student-Made for your campus. We will share valuable insights and metrics on the current state of creative entrepreneurship on campus.

What’s entailed?

    • Identify student-run businesses on campus that are not currently connected with the entrepreneurship center. The goal number will be agreed upon prior to starting the study.

    • Reporting on goals of business owners, and how our program would support them. This will help define the impact of our program on campus

    • Our program is run by 6 managers across a variety of roles— which we will fill with interested applicants as part of the study.

    • Aligning manger team position with future career readiness.

      • We aim for manager positions to reflect future career aspirations— whether marketing, finance, community outreach, etc.

    • All our campuses operate a similar marketing strategy, but each campus brings a unique brand we want to align with. In this study we develop a brand marketing strategy and vision to appeal to your campus community.

    • We will report on social engagement garnered throughout the 2-months, allowing you to gauge the perceived interest in bringing our program to campus, from a customer and supporter standpoint.

    • One of the manager roles entails forming and maintaining partners that help promote student businesses and provide new outlets for sales.

    • Popup shops and retail opportunities account for a major portion of student sales on + off-campus, and we will compile a list of potential partners that would be a good fit.
