I always recommend purchasing the Business Strategy Game Guide before requesting personalized Business Strategy Game tutoring. The guide lays the groundwork on how the bsg online works. You’ll get more bang for your buck if I don’t have to go over basic concepts in depth. I keep the guide is short and to the point. It was designed so teams who are behind don’t have to spend hours catching back up.
The guide will get you out of 95% of all “tricky” situations and that students think they need customized support for. Here are the few situations where I do recommend you start out with BSG-Online tutoring:
- There are only 1 or 2 years left in the game.
- Your athletic footwear team is in last place and is more than 40 points behind the next lowest scoring team.
- Your teacher is about to declare your team bankrupt.
- Your team has had negative EPS exceeding $1.00 for 3 or more years in a row.
The four situations above can be unusually tricky and require a lot of work to dig yourself out of the whole.
I’ve tutored teams out of all of the situations above dozens of times. The Business Strategy Game is always recoverable. The makers of the game designed it so teams could come back… no matter what place they are in.
It is important to note, I provide free customized support and questions with purchase of the guide. I only request people pay my tutoring rate if the questions start to take up more than an hour of my time a week or I feel like the team isn’t making an honest effort to help me.
If you’re not sure if your team needs Business Strategy Game Tutoring or not, just send me an e-mail and I’ll evaluate your situation for free.

The Business Strategy Game Quiz 2 is MUCH more challenging than the first quiz. I commonly see kids get 40% on the second quiz. The simulation uses non-standard definitions for financial formulas so googling the equation often won’t work. Below are the most commonly used equations for the Business Strategy Game Quiz 2. If ANY equations aren’t on there, please comment below. I will research the correct equation and then append this post. : ) I’ve uploaded a YouTube video again for your convenience. The SlideShare is linked to below as well. There is a lot more to Quiz 2 than the equations, make sure to check out my other blog posts listed below to ensure your success.

Business Strategy Game Quiz 1 primarily consists of two topics. The first topic is where the company starts out. The second topic is on how the bsg-online operates. The YouTube Video above covers both topics. You will find most of the Business Strategy Game Quiz 1 answers below. I recommend reading over them a few times and watching the video to familiarize yourself with the content. All BSG-Online quizzes are timed. Keep in mind, your quiz 1 results DO effect your overall Business Strategy Game grade. If you take your time and really do well on them, you’ll have more leeway to make errors in the game. You can also view the Quiz 1 SlideShare below.

This short tutorial will show you how to export your BSG-Online reports to send over for personalized tutoring. The reports below will give the necessary information to make informed decisions applicable to your unique Business Strategy Game Situation. Many first time users believe there is a “correct” or “perfect set of numbers.” In reality, the BSG-Online is based on relationships between you and other teams. What allows you to win is a deep understanding of the hidden strategies and software tips that take hours to figure out.
All of the files need to be “printed” as a PDF or a Microsoft XPS viewer. It is normally very easy to do. Just select PDF as the printer when in the print page dialogue box. I also suggest saving all files to the desktop for easy retrieval.
