Sobre la simulación
A 90-minute, 4-round basic Express simulation on setting and defending a micro-business's first price, for pre-incubation and incubation programmes, chamber-of-commerce and municipal entrepreneurship courses and technical, technological and undergraduate entrepreneurship, marketing and small-business courses.
Milagros, a fictional micro-founder in Arequipa, Peru, sells her artisanal rocoto cream at a Saturday fair and on Instagram; her fictional pre-incubation programme wants a business that pays its costs and her time by demo day on 28 May 2027.
Round by round you set the list price and how you test what customers would pay, answer the hagglers, the family and a picanteria that wants 30% off, set a gourmet shop's terms and answer a rise in the price of rocoto, and answer a supermarket chain's offer and choose the Mother's Day promotion.
Each three-week period is scored on contribution, price realisation, price evidence, trust and jars sold; agreeing a price with competing stalls, or crossing out a "before" price that was never charged, caps the score. Spanish with English.
