Figure 1.1: Janerosa making snacks

As she began producing snacks for herself, she got an idea: ‘Why not make more
snacks to sell to others and earn income while waiting for the Form Four National
Examination results?’ She turned her idea into a reality. She used the skills acquired
from school to bake delicious and healthy snacks by mixing the right ingredients. As she
continued making snacks, more customers were attracted to her snacks, and eventually,
she became a sole proprietor.

Questions:

1. What motivated Janerosa to start making her snacks?
2. What is the activity that Janerosa was doing?
3. How did Janerosa’s decision to make snacks turn into a business?
4. What do you think made Janerosa’s snacks attractive to customers?
5. In your own words, explain what a “product” is, using Janerosa’s snacks as an
example.
6. If you were in Janerosa’s position, what other products might you consider
creating based on your skills or interests?
