Step into the world of real business, real clients, and real results. In this hands-on course, students don’t just learn about selling—they live it. Through our school-based enterprise, Falcon Pride Designs, students become part of a creative team that designs products, works with customers, and brings ideas to life.
From day one, students will build confidence in communication, sharpen their presentation skills, and learn how to connect with people in a professional setting. They’ll take on the role of designers and sales professionals—meeting with clients, identifying needs, creating custom designs, and delivering polished presentations.
This course goes beyond the classroom by teaching students how to think like entrepreneurs. Students will track trends, understand what drives customers, and learn how businesses stay competitive. They’ll also gain real-world experience in pricing products, negotiating, creating invoices, and managing sales records—skills that translate directly to future careers.
Whether students are interested in business, marketing, design, or simply gaining confidence and real-world experience, this course provides an exciting opportunity to build skills that matter. By the end of the course, students won’t just understand business—they’ll have experience running it.
