1) Describe the overall topic of your Senior Project.
- Marketing the coffee shop. I wanted to do a market analysis of the sales of the coffee shop
in terms of what types of drinks they sell per month. I would take into effect the weather,
time of year, and ingredients of the drinks. After I take all the data into effect, I will be able
to help the coffee shop determine which ingredients they should buy per month in order
to increase overall efficiency. I will also be able to propose an argument to convince the
school administrators why the shop should stay open until 10:00AM instead of 8:20AM.
2) What is your previous experience in this area of study?
- During my freshman year of high school I took an elective called Business Essentials. This
elective taught me the overall factors of production that businesses need to succeed.

knowing what ingredients to order and when.
