Venture Concept no.2

Opportunity: The children (relative term) of Gainesville need to be able to get alcohol safer and easier. Driving is a whole new step that could be a fun time with one's friends but also could end in yknow, death. So it's a good idea to knock it out. Scooters make this an easier reality to actualize, since they augment the mobility of a hypothetical delivery team that I could put together. This window of opportunity will be open for pretty much until someone actually makes something like this in Gainesville. I feel like kids (myself included) are just gonna get more lazy. So it'll be here.

Innovation: There are apps with the same idea in Los Angeles and large cities like that, but in little college towns, where the industry would probably thrive if prices could be kept reasonable, it seems a new idea. The idea being to drive around on scooters and deliver alcohol and tobacco, other vices, to people all around Gainesville. Click of a button. Probably upcharge the products like 5$ to what it's bought for, keep the company small so profits can be split and remain lucrative for al involved.

Competetion is stores that dont ID. My secret sauce is Me.

Feedback probably happened but I didnt look at it. But one idea is the whole thing is immoral and faulty.

Google Gold

1.) So I had virtually no strategy in drawing traffic to my blog, and honestly was unaware that was a goal of doing this. I put sports racers as a hashtag in the first one because I was excited for this class and like zefrank and would like to attract similar people. That's about it.

2.) I dont really use social media too much aside from facebook and tumblarina so there was no advertising. I have an addictive personality and if I use those things I waste too much time on them so I stay away. tumblrs worth it though.

3.) Ok so switch this one and number 2, woops. But my key words would be the titles of all the posts I guess, aside from just my regular patterns of speech I didn't change up my syntax at all. I'd imagine the word alcohol came up pretty frequently.

4.) My first elevator pitch did, probably some controversy on how I formatted it or something. Or people liked it.

5.) No. Because what why would that happen.

Very Short Interview, Part 2

The interview seems like a long time ago and also like I was much more serious about this class back then. Mr. Day is a cool guy.

B-How do you feel about the notion of wasting time?

J- Well if you're doing something, you may as well find a way to make it meaningful to your life, so I think that wasting time is a waste of time.

B- I'm going to be a teacher do you think thats a good idea?

J- That fits you nicely yes

B- I think the assignment meant I had to ask entrepreneur based questions but they didn't specify that so i'm not gonna. Well actually do you know how to spell entrepreneur?

J- Don't cut corners so much, also yes.

I'm a pretty comfortable person, as long as i'm talking to someone who is also comfortable in their own skin. So i'm not quite sure how to gauge if there was an increase in how comfortable I was but I was definitely ok with it. Jamie seems to be content with how i'm progressing.

Celebrating Failure

I'm a person with a good bit of anxiety, and therefore stay in my comfort zone if possible. A realm in which I fail pretty frequently is beating my friend valence at basketball. I can get him sometimes but most of the time he wins, or his team does at least. He's just quicker and better overall. He is also 29 so thats 10 years experience. I stop him better than most other ive seen at SW though. With this failure as well as the others I run across in life, I tend not to even think of them as failures. Just learning how to life better. Yes life is a verb there. I just learn to play different and mostly with more confidence when i play with Valence or anyone who is good and pushes me. Life is a series of chances. Do it. Bye.

My Exit Strategy

I plan on not doing anything that makes me feel a little dirty, for a living at least. For example, selling alcohol to people. As far as an establish a position for myself sort of thing, anything goes. So this is acceptable, especially as a hypothetical idea. But I think i'd go with the sell early thing for something like this. There's so many ways to make a living in the world, and doing something as common as easy as making a small business grow isn't really and appealing or fulfilling idea for me. This is my plan of action because morals. It didn't effect my methods of going about thinking of the venture.
