what participants are judged on • On the bottom left corner of the front page of your Business Simulation is a list of
“Performance Indicators.” • Performance Indicators are the only things your judges can use to evaluate you. • Address each indicator point-by-point. Do not stray off topic by offering solutions that
do not address the specified Performance Indicators.
what tools can you have/not have? • No outside materials may be brought into competition • Only pen, pencil, calculator, and paper will be allowed in the preparation area. • Use that paper to present your solution in an organized format. • Draw charts, graphs and illustrations to provide further proof for your argument. • Use the facts given, and if you need other facts - make them up and act as if they are
given. If you tell your judge that your company has 60% of the market share, who are they to challenge that fact?
