Market Analysis

Solution Overview

Handmade crochet keychains
Crochet tops (future expansion)
Personalized name or design options
Order via school social groups

Market Snapshot

Market Size: $500,000 (local school market, growing 2% annually)
Target Users: High school or college students seeking unique accessories
Growth Rate: 2% annually

Monetization Ideas

Direct Sales: Sell items during breaks or lunch at school at fixed prices.
Pre-orders: Accept pre-orders for custom designs to reduce inventory risk.
Bulk Discounts: Offer discounts for group orders (e.g., keychains for clubs).

Competitive Edge

Unlike mass-produced accessories, each piece is handmade and customizable, offering uniqueness. The combination of crochet and clay in one shop differentiates from peers who focus on a single craft.

Risk Factors

Low scalability beyond school campus
Time-intensive production limits volume
Competition from other student sellers
