Three-Week at LaunchHouse

This week was the first week for the LaunchHouse 3-week course. The course splits students into three different groups and allows them to work exclusively with a company at the LaunchHouse. The first group of students are working with Whoa!Dough, a delicious and healthy cookie bar company. The students are tasked with finding ways to bring the cookie bar directly to the consumer. The second group of students are working with a black owned minority business that developed an algorithm to find distressed properties. The business then purchases the homes and collects rent until the property is sold. The students in that group are tasked with writing blogs as a way to bring awareness to the community of the services they offer. The last group of students are working with a company called Haowen Cultural Foundation, a non-profit that helps international high school students find a college that fits their needs. The students in this group are tasked with redesigning the website in a collaborative effort. Overall, the LaunchHouse 3-week is a great course for students to experience working with companies in a real world environment.

  Student Venture Update As discussed in a previous blog , three groups of Hiram entrepreneurship students are currently running their own business on campus. The three businesses include Mad Batter, Hiram Tees, and Tribe Clothing Brand. With the semester coming to an end, these businesses are looking to end strong! Mad Batter is a baked goods business that is focused on selling to students on Hiram campus. They have totaled an estimated 300+ sales in a short span of two months. The team plans to continue following their business plan and grow their sales.  Hiram Tees is a T-shirt business that is focused on making unique shirts with funny slogans. The team slightly changed their business plan and decided to accept custom orders.
