Opportunity:
The reading states that a venture concept may be defined as the application of a specific innovation to address specific opportunity. Therefore, my venture started because I first saw a problem and I found a solution. Then, I realized that finding a solution for this problem was an opportunity to begin a business. Therefore, the problem was that many students including myself forget when there assignments are due. I decided to create an app that will be synchronized with canvas , and that will be constantly reminding students with a lot of anticipation when to turn in their assignments.
Venture concept:
The market right know is define demographically I will first begin with UF students; however, in a future I would like to expand to other universities. My customers are UF students and it will satisfies their need because I’m pretty sure that their grades will change drastically. This is because many students work and have other actives.So, it is very hard for them to keep up with everything. So, UF Smart Planner will do the planning for them. This is a big opportunity because I feel that many of them will use it and more in UF since it is a very competitive among students. Many students care a lot about their classes ,and they will not miss this opportunity. At this point, I don’t really know how long the window of opportunity will be opened I have to first se how the business begins in order to answer the question. Once I have my business, I have to start thinking how can I innovate.I know it will take time and money but it is necessary.
Innovation:
Innovation is important because there are always competitors in the market and innovation can be a competitive advantage. I will also try to be better than my competitor by analyzing their service and seeking out what is working and what is not working. The actual concept of this venture is to help students because I’m one ,and I feel they would do much better with this new app. The idea is to begin with this venture and then innovate, or start another one with the same purpose. At this point, I don’t have the idea of what would be the other venture; however, the idea will also be to help students satisfy their needs.

Hi Natalie,
ReplyDeleteGreat work on this assignment! I really like how you covered the different venture concepts for this assignment. My favorite part of this assignment was when you talked about how innovation is important. I too feel the same way that there will always be competitors when there is possible to be them. Great work! Here is a link to my blog: http://ksnihur.blogspot.com/2016/03/venture-concept-no-1.html
Hi Natalie! It sounds like you have a pretty lucrative idea on your hands. If you can find a way to create a product to help remind students of assignments in an efficient way, I could definitely see a future for your product. The only thing that I would add is that differentiation of your product from many other similar ones would be essential. Good luck!

Hi Natalie,
ReplyDeleteI like your idea. I think the focus on innovation is important when it comes down to your idea. Because I think its hard for people to buy your services when they can just try harder to focus and turn things in. I think pricing might be of great importance as well. I really like the idea but it does not seem like a necessity, more of a luxury.
Great overall job on the assignment and you can check out my blog at http://flatpeak.blogspot.com/2016/03/venture-concept-no-1.html
