Marketing: honest and clear — Entrepreneurship for kids

Marketing is telling people about your business. A poster says what you sell, the price, where and when (“Fresh lemonade, ₹10 a cup, Stall 4”). Word of mouth — happy customers telling friends — is free and powerful. Social media is only with a parent’s permission, from a parent’s account, and never with your home address or phone number. Every message must be honest: no “cures colds” claims and no fake “only 1 left!”.

Business tip

Honest and clear — “tell people what, how much, where and when — and nothing false”

  1. Honest and clear: what it is, the price, where and when, and only true claims. Misleading: false health claims, hidden prices, fake “free” or “only 1 left”.
  2. Poster = a sign or sheet; word of mouth = people telling people; social media = posting online.
  3. Social media only with a parent’s permission; never share your address, phone number or school timetable.

Use it for: Making posters, telling friends, and any online post (with a parent).

Worked example: 📣 Is this stall message honest and clear, or misleading? “Cures colds in one sip!” → misleading

  1. Lemonade or chai cannot cure a cold — the claim is false.
  2. So the message is misleading.

Check: Try it: design a poster for your idea with what, price, where and when — and only true words ✓
