I can still remember the time that my childs school held a parents and teachers meeting to raise the issue of raising funds for the reconstruction of the school gym following a devastating storm that had ravaged the building and practically torn it apart. It was my original idea that each person contribute some money to put towards the building costs, I didnt realize that most of the parents there could not afford that and thus we had to come up with a new idea posthaste. With speed as quick as a bolt of blue lightning we managed to propose a number of practical solutions which would not cost and arm and a leg. The idea that was finally agreed upon would not only earn money but also bring fame to the school from legions of rabid fans. You must be wondering now what was the plan in question? Well the executed plans details are all in the paragraphs below.

Bags are a commonly used item to carry our belongings Luggage and books are a few examples of things that are normally carried. Without bags it would be difficult to put all these things together to bring around, in a world without bags we would have to carry a few items at a time and scatter to collect fallen items. Bags come in all shapes, size and color. They can be created from a wide variety of material at many different levels of cost depending on the material used. Thus our idea was to use some funds to carry out a strategy to create some bags for sale. There are many designs of bags to choose from and so we used the internet as a resource (thanks to its limitless information) for finding the right design of bags to fit our budget and skill level. The four designs that we finally decided upon were sling backpacks, fabric backpacks, customized backpacks and clear backpack with bottle holder due to the fact that these designs would entail the least work and cost.

Fabrication Fiesta

Making cheap school backpacks are actually easy if it is collaboratively done as a group working in unison and not as a solo effort. Each mother in the school is more likely than not to own a sewing machine which can be utilized for the activity of bag making. The tasks would be segmented and sourced to each different group in a fair manner to accelerate work and increase production. Nonetheless each individual backpack would be imbued with a personal touch to retain an aura of uniqueness about it thereby siring a finished product that is suitable.

Sling Backpacks

This smooth and sexy drawstring string-a-sling backpacks is sure to be a star product especially when targeted at the youth market. It can be fashioned from a variety of easily available stuff. These will be a showcase of crowd pulling backpacks which are trend-setting.

Fabric Backpacks

They can be made from the leftover rags and this brings forth a multi-colored bag that can be just as admirable as a single toned one. Material is very easy to find because there are rags found even in the oddest of places and these swaddles cost next to nothing.

Customized Backpacks

Of all the bags these hold the highest hopes as a bestseller. For those who want a customized bag they would no doubt be willing to pay a premium for it. Each bag would be designed to suit each individual whim in his chosen colors and shape. The customers would come from a wider variety of sources as compared to customer base for the other bags. The profit margin would also be significantly higher. Any design could be catered to such as nylon mesh drawstring backpack according to the clients fancy.

Clear backpacks

Especially targeted at the child sector of the market, the bags were done in fine detail. The translucent material can be purchased at discounted factory prices which are cheaper than store prices. To add extra value to the overall product the easiest way is to accessories using interesting bits and pieces. Shiny glitter dust can be spread onto the surface of the bag to add shine and glamour to the bag to add to its pulling power. Shiny shapes like butterflies and ladybirds among others can also be added to make it more beautiful.

A lot of products today rely on branding the worth of the product relying on the brand or symbol it bears. Thus the school symbol imprinted on the nylon drawstring rucksack or back packs will no doubt be a marketing exercise to make the school brand well known around the whole community and more, this will also instill a pride amongst those tied to the school and install a school spirit within their hearts. This may act as a catalyst for some venture capitalist to fund some further furors into capitalism.
