Doing What Interests Me, Is Paying - An Entrepreneur In The Making

Doing What Interests Me, Is Paying - An Entrepreneur In The Making

When I was 10, I was called to organize the Annual Get together party for my own residential society. I was allotted Rs. 5000 and was asked to buy Party-favors (take-away), prizes and Venue decorations. Over the years, I learnt what made the best take-away and prizes, which seller had the best collection of these and which seller gave me the best discount. Apart from this, I thought of innovative ways to engage the crowd during the party and to induce the bonding between them. Some of the ways were having new and interesting group games, crowd-engaging spot prizes, group activities, themed photo booths, stalls put up by society members (few homes came up with Bottled home-made pickles, farsans, papad, wine, sponge cakes, chikki, cloth bags, greeting cards, candles, nail art stall etc.)
