30A – Final Reflection

1.    With no entrepreneurial experience, nor have any family or close friends that have their own business. I was a tab bit nervous about taking this course. However, this course has been put in great context and structured very nicely for each student. My lows in this course was finding random individuals to interview and talk about my idea. However, that low turned into a high, because the feedback I received was more than amazing. My highs in this class, is now having the ability to start my own business and not fear the process, with the support I have develop, I’m ready more than I’ve been before.

2.    My most joyous moment of this experience of this whole process was contacting former coworkers, managers and speaking with neighbors. I have enabled me to open my social capital and obtain a nice networking base. I’ve accomplished a lot with just building a relationship with some of the individuals, I’ve reached to, in order to help me along the way.

3.    At the beginning of the semester, I had a mindset of being an entrepreneur, but I just didn’t know which direction I was heading. I needed others as my classmates, that were also in the same situation and taking the steps to learn. Also, gaining the mindset to put forth the action and becoming an entrepreneur. I have learned key factors to look for, especially pitching an idea to a business owner as came so easily for me. Second, searching for a venture capitalist that will probably believe in my idea. My mindset is more interested in opening a business now than I was when I first started this semester.

4.    My recommendation for a student that are coming on this journey and fear the need of change, I state to them, just do it. Don’t be afraid, because there will be failure, there will be others tell you that’s not a good idea. However, you must believe in yourself and know that you can get through this. Also, build a social capital, networking is the key to a strong healthy business. In this course, just be unique and interact with your classmates everyone must start someone. But at the end just make sure you finish.

29A – Venture Concept No. 2

29A – Venture Concept No. 2

1.       The opportunity behind my concept of providing transportation for individuals not wanting to walk at events to an arena, has been a great idea. I’ve had the opportunity to speak with numerous of different individuals on this business venture and to say, they have supported me. I’m in the process of building an app to help me with detecting people as close radius from their vehicle to pick them up and ride them to the arena. Especially, urgent assistance will be provided on the app for any disable, parents with little babies or any other type of urgent messaging to pick up these specific individuals first. Also, one of my long-time friends knows an owner who owns golf carts, bikes and other type of transportation that can be used for a business venture like mines. The owner stated, this will work and give him the opportunity to get his business name among others, being that he has a small business. I’m very excited for this venture concept and this opportunity of being able to plan and execute my vision.

2.       The feedback has been nothing but amazing. I’ve had friends, business owners and family members support me, criticize me about my idea. However, all the feedback has allowed me to push through and motivate me to become a stronger individual. I have also, overcame any fear and doubt that I thought was going to stop me from this idea.

3.       The only thing I changed was to add an urgent messaging system on the app for special needs individuals. Other then that, I didn’t change anything else. After researching, interviewing others and feedback from many people, I’ve decided the best thing is to focus on customers and their needs. Especially, making them satisfied so my business can grow and grow.

Ron told me to wait and if not, he will interact with the company and help with initiate my idea and seeing what is required and the cost for my services to be implemented with an app made. Ron was very helpful and stated, he will reach out to the vendor if I don’t hear anything within the next two weeks.

19A- Idea Napkin No.2

1.    You. Who you are?

I am a college student who have been wanting to be an entrepreneur since I was in high school. However, the fear of failing has allowed me not to start my business. But now I have been ready to take the initiative to innovate a product that will help at sporting events, concert or any event that needs transportation.

2.    What are you offering to customers?

There are many highs and lows with creating an app that can provide non walking services, for individuals or a group of people walking long distances to an event. This will services will allow customers to use the app to have a cart or bicycle that can hold up to eight people to utilize and cannot walk.

3.    Who are you offering it to?

I’m offering it to any individual that have downloaded the app and need a ride to the arena or building they are attending for an event. That will involve a large crowd of people.

4.    Why do they care?

They care because some customers have a disability, some customers have small children especially parents that have more than one child. They care because dealing with large crowds the need to finding a parking spot close to the arena is very rare. Therefore, they will have the ability to use my services to minimize all the walking and not have to worry about the long distance they may have.

5.    What are you core competencies? What sets you apart from everyone else?

My core competencies are the rational decisions I have made to have a successful business. Providing services and building and app to connect with the customer in order to have rides to the event they are attending. Another core competence is providing excellent customer services, I’ve always being a big believer in having exceptional customer services. In order to have a great reputation, build your brand, receive great customer feedback and the ability to expand your business through customers referring others. It is a core competence for my business plan/model and for longevity of the business.

My competitive advantage to set me apart from everyone else is, having quick transportation such as bicycles and carts to detect customers with an out to pick them up as close as possible near their vehicle and taking them to the event. Preventing them to walk long distances, avoiding any bad weather conditions and caring for customers who have a disability or other abnormal conditions that prohibited them from walking.

Last what set me apart is, I won’t have any set prices this will be a donation-based services.

18A Create A Customer Avatar

18A Create A Customer Avatar

 Customer Avatar:  I have two avatars for two different customers that I have. My first customer is 35 years old with 2 kids a boy and girl. My second customer is 24 and is a college student, who is attending school for sports management. Both customers love going to sporting events. Their hobbies are going to games (Buccaneers, Lightning and Tampa Bay Ray). The type of car my first customer avatar drive is a Jeep, which is big enough for her and children. My second customer avatar drives a racing Honda Accord car. I’m sure all my customers are people who watch sports, go to games or probably even participate in fantasy football. The customers who utilize my services come from all different aspects of life. 

           

In common with my customer is attending sporting events and attending college. I do not see this as coincidence because I came up with this idea through my own experiences.

17A – Elevator Pitch No. 2

1) The Pitch: 

2) Reflection: I had very positive feedback to my Elevator Pitch No. 1.  I did not keep recording my pitch, in which, I think that was probably why my pitch could have been much better.  My peer responses were all positive and they did give me some useful feedback on what I could have done better. I decided to practice on the “hmm”, “and”, “but”, in which we use these words a lot.

3) The Change:  Based on my own feedback, I recorded my pitch several times and worked on my words of chose to have a better flowing pitch. In which, that solved the issues I found occurred in Elevator Pitch No. 1. 

16A- The Secret Sauce

16A- The Secret Sauce

The Secret Sauce

1.     Five ways in which I have Human Capital:

·         Personality – Regardless of how my day may seem, if it’s going bad or it’s a rough one. I’ve mastered the art of, keeping a positive attitude. Knowing a negative attitude will only make the situation worst. Also, keeping a positive attitude keeps good energy around me and allows me to stay in high positive spirits.

·         Determination – I may not have the answers to everything, but I am always determined to find the answer and provide others with the resources. When others are relying on me it makes me work harder and feel very important.

·         Respectful – I have always treated others the way I want to be treated. Everyone you meet is not a bad person. Also, others may be going through a tough time. I’m always respectful to others as I would want them to be to me.

·         Rational – I’ve always been a thinker before I do something. I’m more of a rational decision maker. Not only for myself, but for others around me. I’m rational to help benefit the decisions I make, that will cause a positive impact on others.

·         Empathetic - When interacting with other individuals, I’ve mastered the art of adapting myself to put myself in other shoes. I can be a great talker or listener, a loud goofy friend or a quiet person, whatever someone needs me to be, I’m usually easily able to adapt.

2.     Interviews

·         My Mother

“What do you believe is my human capital? These are the things that make me different, like knowledge, skills, etc.”.

a.     “Of course, you are the bomb, because you are my daughter. But you have always been committed to be a better person, achieving all your goals. Always not allowing anyone to stop you. You have always been very determined and eager to maintain a positive attitude and not let anything negative stop you. I’m sure you stress yourself, but barely let me know. But you have always been the protector and wanted to make sure everyone in our family and friends were happy.

·         My Best friend, Noel

You will give your jacket to a stranger if they need it. You are very loyal to your friends and family and always want everyone to be happy. If they aren’t happy, you will always find a way to put a smile on some face. As your best friend you have given me the ability to do better and get back in school and earn my Doctorate degree. You are a true definition of a strong positive individual”.

·         Breanna Wellington, Accounting Manager

“What do you believe is my human capital? These are the things that make me different, like knowledge, skills, etc.”.

You always do just the little things that are really considerate, and I love that about you.”

Reflection:

Listening to my interviewees, I’ve realized I can be so hard on myself. I’m always trying to go above and beyond. My best friend Noel stated, one thing it’s okay to do, is be a human. Everyone knows me as having a positive attitude and staying strong, but they don’t see the soft side of me. In which, I don’t show much because that’s for my personal matter only. I do agree with I’m always putting others first more often than putting myself first. In which, that can be a good or bad thing. Because as humans we can often forget about our own health and personal needs because we are always caring and supporting others first. I have always been a smiley, positive, smart and determined individual. Also, I’m always trying to uplift others because we all need that one push to get us motivated to be successful.

15A- Figuring out buyer Behavior No. 2

Report Findings:

In this assignment, I have interviewed three individuals who haven’t thought of my problem but have agreed that it’s definitely a good idea. They have also, stated they will be interested in using the services when attending an event. I have asked everyone what specific components will be helpful for the customers. Also, which factors and functions are needed for the app to pick up customers as close to their vehicles as possible. When interviewing, the customers cared most about the quality and accuracy of the app to have effective services. Majority stated, they need great reviews and the app to be reliable.

My idea is for all customer to purchase the app on their smartphones, iPad on other devices. If you are an elderly customer, with no app services, it will be phone services available to reach the driver to pick you up from your location. But this will be only for customers with no device to download the app. The app will need to be downloaded if you have a smartphone device to use our services. The app/service will be funded mostly through ads, banners and money fundraised for special events. In which, the app will not cost, but when being picked up a donation will be required. However, if this is a legitimate business my interviewees stated, having to pay for the app may be a profitable way to earn revenue.

If the app works perfectly, it was stated they will continue to use the app and recommend others to do so as well. All individual felt the app will help with disability who can’t walk for long periods of time. It will help with getting people to and from the arena/events faster. Also, helping customers who have kids and would rather not walk and have a ride to the event. This will all be well worth it and a great potential idea.

1.     James Duncan (Bucs Football Fan)

James interview was extremely helpful in improving my service and seeing a new perspective. James suggested including a feature on the app that would notify the driver who will pick up the customers of how many will need to be seated and if they have a disability. This will be an indication to provide a larger cart to escort the customers. This would help customers get to their events quicker and not have to walk long distances.

2.     Chris Hall (Lightning Hockey Fan)

Chris told me that if he had learned about a service like the one described at earlier, he would have absolutely used it. As a lightning fan, he stated, he must park at a garage that is over a mile from where the stadium is. He also, feels that if parking were more open and more parking build next to the arena’s, etc. most customer would be better off. As a fan who attend hockey games stated most people Uber now to the arena or events to be dropped off in front of the arena. Also, to avoid DUI, having to walk long distances and the hassle of trying to find a park. Chris said that the most important aspect of the app to him was quality and the ability to pick up customers to avoid walking long distance. Also, he liked the idea of not charging a specific price and just allowing customers to give a donation. He said she would even pay for an app that was well developed and never crashed it that meant it had time accurate.

3.     Larry Hoover (Parking attendee for events)

     Larry, who is a business major, gave helpful suggestions on how to promote the business. He suggests putting flyers on cars at work and paying for local billboards. He also suggests a feature that could combine apps that will do an analysis on the areas with a lot of people who will need to use the app. He also suggested giving a feature where the app gives estimated times each customer will have to wait in order to be picked up.

    
     Conclusion: I was able to get a better perspective when interviewing more individuals, that are usually attending big events and, have worked parking at an event. This allowed me to look at my business plan in a different way then before and innovate for new ideas and improvements. I also, was able to think about new functions and alerts the app will need in order to provide great services and accuracy. Also, making sure all customer is satisfied and that this will be a potential plan for a business.

14A – Halfway Reflection

Tenacity & Paying It Forward

 

1) Tenaciousness is a competency

The behaviors I have used to keep up with the requirements of this course, is the ability to think outside the box and put my visual on as an entrepreneur. This course for over the past month has given me so much information, tools and resources to think like an entrepreneur. Also, the assignments are fun and has enable me to read more.

2) Tenaciousness is also about attitude.

I didn’t quite want to give up, however, I was very frustrated when I know I would faithfully watch the lectures. Then I will take the “Cupcake” quiz and not make a perfect score. I have gotten better with taking notes and replaying specific sections that I know will be very important and covered on the quiz. Now I’ve developed a technique to write key notes down and the ability to remember what Professor Pryor spoke about in his lectures. In which, his lectures are the best.  Therefore, I’ll continue to listen to his lectures, learn, take notes and my score will improve each time.

3) Three tips. What are three tips you would offer next semester's student about (1) fostering the skills that support tenacity and (2) developing the 'tenacious mindset’?

-         

                 Step out of your comfort zone
                      Watch the lectures many times as possible. The material is very useful and will be beneficial in your business career
                   Take the assignments as a fun learning tool and not too serious.

13A – Reading Reflection No. 1

Grinding It Out: The Making of McDonald’s, Ray Kroc

1) You read about an entrepreneur:

What surprised you the most?

Before Ray Kroc started McDonald, he was a salesman and owned another small business before McDonald was discovered. Also, I was surprised how he lied about his age to become an ambulance driver at the age of 15 years old. He also, was a real estate agent in Florida. Which was a surprise to me. He has variety of jobs before owning a multi-million-dollar company.

What about the entrepreneur did you most admire?

I admire how Ray Kroc was like many of us individuals, he worked regular jobs. In fact, he worked many jobs and figured with his skills of making good hamburgers and French can earn him a fortune. He took the risked and didn’t give up on his idea.

What about the entrepreneur did you least admire?

He only wanted to established McDonald in suburban areas not necessarily in poor areas. When it come to generating revenue, there shouldn’t be a issue with building a fast food restaurant in a poor area.

Did the entrepreneur encounter adversity and failure? If so, what did they do about it?

Yes, when negotiating and buying more restaurants his partners were in a disagreement and Kroc suddenly became annoyed and frustrated. He also, made policies strict and not to be broken and the brothers did not agree. When doing business with others it becomes very difficult to get things resolved and that was Kroc’s problem when facing adversity, he couldn’t also get what he needed to continue with being successful.

2) What competencies did you notice that the entrepreneur exhibited? 

Exceptional customer service skills, knowing what the customers wanted and needed. He also, was able to showcase his sale skills.

3) Identify at least one part of the reading that was confusing to you.

The McDonald brother did not work as a group and made it very difficult for Kroc to resolve his ideas and innovate the necessary tools for all of them to be very successful.

4) If you were able to ask two questions to the entrepreneur, what would you ask? Why?

·         What would you have done differently starting from the beginning of your business vs what you did when you started your business years ago?

·         How do you feel about going into business with relative, partners etc.? Would you recommend or just use investors and hire strangers to help with your business planning?

5) For fun: what do you think the entrepreneur's opinion was of hard work? Do you share that opinion?

Kroc worked hard to become successful. He had to work regular jobs and then take the risk and initiative to start his own business. With the failures and adversity, he didn’t give up on his plan/idea and executed with his best ability to become wealthy and successful.

12A – Figuring Out Buyer Behavior No. 1

The Individuals selected for this segment are residence that live in my apartment community about parking at the arena for a sports event.

Interviews

Interview #1 – Sylvia Thompson

Sylvia has been living in our community for over two years and stated, one of her major reasons why she does not go to any of the games is due to parking. However, she loves the location, it’s close to her daughter school and she love how it’s centrally located in Tampa FL. However, with the frustration of not being able to find a park by the arena is a big hassle. She would love to catch a game, however, due to the long walks in the sun, it does not help with her health and she would love assistance if it was available.

Interview #2 – Maria Gomez

Maria has been living in our community for one year. She has two small children and a dog. She stated she is a huge Buccaneer fan. When I presented Maria with my idea, Maria stated that it would be a fantastic idea. She was very puzzled as of why the arena does not provide any transportation, to and from the arena. She stated, she does not go to the games much, because she has two little kids and that will be a lot for her to deal with, having to gather all their belongings and walking long trips to and from the stadium. She stated, if there were bicycles or licensed golf carts that can seat 5 or more passengers, she will attend more games with her children.

Interview #3 – Peter Correa

Peter is my next-door neighbor and the both of us, have discussed sports and catching a game at the arena. However, Peter stated, he’s never been to a football and he didn’t want to deal with the hassle of parking, walking and waiting in long lines getting in the stadium. Therefore, I spoke to him about my idea of creating an app to detect individuals who will need a ride to and from the arena. Also, stating, the rides are donation based. He stated, it sounds like a great idea, however, he stated the technical problems that the app can have. He also stated, the regulations of having golf carts or vehicle made like golf carts might not work. Setting up licenses or permits to make sure everyone is safe. Most critical things he thought about, made me realize, I have more brainstorming to do.

What I learned

I learned that majority of sports individuals would like to attend a game, however, they don’t want to deal with the hassle of parking, walking and getting back to their vehicle after the arena, especially being having a couple drinks. Also, all interviews thought this was in fact a great idea. However, my last interviewer did bring up some good key points that I may need to consider. In regards, to technical issue that can happen in making the app, regulations with the transportation and needing a permit or license with the stadium to start a business on their property.

How I would Describe this Segment

I think there are a lot of individuals who attend sporting events at a stadium/arena like the idea of walking and tailgating, in which, most are not bothered with the parking and walking miles to see their favorite team. However, I also think that those who like my idea are the ones who have a disability, kids and other reasons why having transportation to and from the arena will be a benefit for their personal needs.

I have plans to become a business analyst then obtain a career in Information Technology. In which, I would like to advance my skills in Cyber security.

I just need to over come my fear to accomplish opening my businesses.  
2.          What are you offering to customers? I am offering to customers the ability to not have to walk miles and miles to the arena. At their convenience they will be able to wait in their car, while a bicyclist or golf cart rider will take them to the arena.
3.       Who are you offering it to? I am offering my services to anyone at the game who does not want to talk.
4.        Why do they care? They care because this will allow people with little babies, kids or disability individuals who have a hard time taking a lot of stuff back and forth to the arena, to their car. They will also care because sometimes determining the weather on a game day, it will benefit them to catch a ride to the arena.
5.      What are your core competencies? There is not a price listed for our services. This service will be donation based. The app will be able to closely detect individuals who are needing rides back and forth to the arena to their vehicles.
6.       Each element is listed that leads to the next. They are all conjunction with one another, in which they all make sense. With my exceptional customer services and over ten year’s experience will help with my entrepreneurship journey and target the market and a big audience.

9A - Testing the Hypothesis, Part 2

9A – Testing the Hypothesis, Part 2

After this round of interviews, I have learned that residents who live in my apartment complex have had issues with finding a park closer to their building. One person told me that she was not happy about walking long distance to her car with her baby, baby items and her personal things. Another person said, they don’t have a car, so the complaints don’t concern them.

Who: The neighbors who live here and pay their rent in the community, should be able to have an assigned parking space?

What: For those who don’t live in the community should be considerate of others and park their cars in the back of the apartments. Also, the property staff needs this to be addressed and resolved immediately.

Why: In order to satisfy your residents and listening to their ongoing negative feedback. This will allow all residents that you do hear their complaints and once the situation is fixed, this will be a positive change for this community.

	Inside the Boundary	Outside the Boundary
Who?	Residents who don’t have an assigned parking.	Anyone who do not live in the community, should find parking in the back.
What:	Having the ability to park right by your building	What if the people who don’t live in the community make it convenience for the actual residents to find a parking spot
Why:	People are often frustrated with not being able to park by their building.	Non-residents should be considerate of others and we will not have this issue

8A – Solving the Problem

The solution to my opportunity, we as residence in our community need to speak up and step up to getting this resolved sooner than later. We as residence aim to solve the issue of the urgency of being assigned at least one parking spot closer to your apartment building.

The solution will take some time, however, the property staff have responded to our complaints and notifying each residence of their understanding of what an inconvenience this has caused for 60% of residence in this apartment community.

The assigned parking has been reviewed and stated, it is a long-term issue to be resolved. But it will be soon, expecting this resolved within the next 2 years. As, this will decrease the complaints from each resident, this will show support from the property staff that they do listen and care for their residence living issues.

7A – Testing the Hypothesis, Part 1

 The opportunity I’m pursuing is the problem of the lack of parking in my apartment complex, in Tampa FL. The issue is being a residence her and not having at least one assigned parking for yourself. Therefore, walking a long distance to your apartment has been an escalated issue in my neighborhood.

The Who: The residence in my neighborhood

The What: Not being able to find closer parking spots to your apartment building

The Why: Inconvenience of locating spots near your building, especially for carrying groceries or other heavy items.

Testing the who: Not only are the residence of the apartments are “The Who” but also the property staff and guest

Testing the what: Being able to be assigned at least one parking spot for residence only.

Testing the why: Driving and walking long distance in the neighborhood with heavy items, your children, and other things to get to your apartment.

Interview #1: Ran into one of my neighbors outside while taking her dog on a walk, she started to state how bad parking has been. She suggested as well, that we are needing assigned parking passes for residence only.

Interview #2: Spoke with another neighbor, in which, this individual was really upset of how far of a distance she had to walk with her newborn baby and all the baby items. Also, having to walk back and forth with her child due to no parking spaces by the building. She was in fact furious.

Interview #3: This interviewee understands this has been an ongoing discussion in our neighborhood and has not input, due to not having a car. Therefore, not having many parking spots by her building does not concern her.

Interview #4: This is neighbor believes this shouldn’t be a problem. As the property staff should not have a problem supporting the residence complaints.

Interview #5: This is a property staff interviewee, who supports other residence suggestions and complaints. This employee does live in the community and has a hard time finding a park as well by their building. In result, employee has stated, this situation is in the works of being resolved to have assigned parking for residence only.

All in all, reviewing an analysis on my neighbors’ interviews, I have resulted not just myself 
have been frustrated with this issue, but also multiple neighbors as well. The reason our community needs to assign at least on parking spot for residence. This will reduce the residence complaints, lower frustration for residence to find parking and, striving to resolve residence inconvenience in the comfort of their home
