19A - Idea Napkin No. 2


1) Who I am has not changed since the first Idea Napkin so I will explain myself the same way as I did before. The story and history of my life and my parents origins are the same as before so you can check those out in my first Idea Napkin blog. But to further explain myself about who I am, I feel as if I am a very laid back person and am always trying to find ways to simplify things to save time, I'm very persistent with finding things to make life easier and more efficient. 


2) My product also has not changed. I am still offering a cheap, easy way to help clean the environment while you are going about your leisure day on the water or a day out fishing on the boat.

3) My target market it mainly people who live near water and along the coast of Florida because these are the people directly affected by this environmental pollution. 

4) They care because we are helping to fix the environment they so strongly care about if they want to protect their longevity on Earth. They will pay this small fee because they virtually have to do no work and still feel good about themselves and like they are making an impact in our community.

5) Our core competencies are to help clean up the environment in an efficient and cheap way. What sets us a part from everybody else is that we are cheap and effective. We don't rely on expensive equipment or machinery to help. We are taking one small step at a time and having the people give back to their community to help fix it. 

I believe that in combination with a great mission, a cheap product, and easy use, our product and company will have a great effect on people and the community. I think that it is pretty straight forward on why people will buy this product. The only thing we need to make sure it has is quality due to the cheap expense of the product. I got on comment on my first Idea Napkin and what I got from it was that it was a good product that made a lot of sense for buyers and sellers.

    Hi Nathan,

    I think that you still have a very straightforward target market and product. Ithink that the way that you present yourself and explain your skills links really well with how you are trying to sell your product. I will say that the longevity of the Earth as a demand driver will probably only work on the younger generation as it would affect them more. I think you just have to be a little more specific on why each type of person living on the water would want this product.

    Good job!

29A- Venture Concept No.2               I’ve lived most of my life on the water so the beach is a second home to me and we know in this increasing population that means more trash and sadly our beaches and bodies of water suffer from the pollution and debris that all of us humans make. That is why it is my company and product’s goal is to help preserve our beaches for our own benefit. I want this company to do more than just sell products, I want to make a difference in my own community and others dealing with the same sort of problem. In order to fully achieve and facilitate my idea of the sea sweeper into a reality that would help millions of people, I must create an opportunity for myself and have something innovative that someone has never created before or at least to the same efficiency as my product.               The opportunity that lies up...

30A- Final Reflection 1) Reading through all my previous posts from this semester really made me think that you can accomplish so much for a start-up business in such a short amount of time. By doing a little bit for my concept each week, I've seen it grow week by week and with the structure of the course making us go and talk to people and reading material that will not only help us get ideas for our business but the mindset and attitudes we need to have helped me develop a better and more concise idea that I could have on my own. My highs were when I got to read interesting material on business and my favorite was my book on psychology because it really interests me how the consumer mind works and how people make their decisions and my lows would be my elevator pitches because the idea of presenting to investors that could possibly just hate my idea and think I'm stupid is nerve wrecking.  2) My most formative experience would be networking and connecting with ...

28-A Exit Strategy 1) My exit strategy really does come down to if my business is successful or not and how successful it really is. If my business is raking in a lot of money and growing, I think I would keep it and continue to grow it to become a bigger business but if my company is doing okay and I feel as if I cannot make a big difference in the remaining life of my business, I would try and sell it to someone who can grow the business. If I did decide to keep my business, I would keep it to provide for my family until one of my children is old enough to own it, that is, if they wanted to inherit the business. If not, I would sell it and use the money to retire. 2) My strategy relies on what my kids want and how successful I am. I want this strategy because I don't want my children to be born rich and spoiled, I want them to learn on their own, fail on their own so that they can go through the process I went through instead of just being handed money.  3) This stra...
