17A – Elevator Pitch No. 2

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6a2GNJl6K8Y

^^ youtube link to the pitch


Reflection:
What stood out to me that was important was focusing more on learning the pitch; to be able to site it exactly from my memory. What surprised me most about the feedback I got was how friendly everyone was! I thought it was beneficial for people to tell me my strengths and weaknesses of my pitches so that I could adjust accordingly.

What I changed:
I slightly changed my pitch's wording so that it rolled off my tongue easier. Along with adding more features to my product to make it seem more desirable!

    Hey Savannah,

    I really enjoyed your elevator pitch. Since I didn't do the first elevator pitch, I had nothing to go off of. It seems like you really used your feedback to your advantage, and your pitch is very well polished. I really like your product as well, I would absolutely pay for some good headphones. Santa Claus brought me a pair for Christmas, but they are over the ear, not an earbud type. Thanks for sharing.

    Hi Savannah! I think you did your second pitch very well. You seemed to recite everything appropriately with no complications. I feel as though you spoke in a way that was not robotic but conversational, which is great when you’re trying to pitch a product such as the headphones. I like how you reworded your script to make your message more clear. Great job!

    Hi Savannah,
    I really enjoyed watching your second elevator pitch. You spoke very clearly and in a way that was easy for all audiences to follow; more conversational rather than robotic and just reciting a script. I agree that when given feedback it is helpful to hear both strengths and weaknesses as it will only make the next pitch stronger than the previous.

    Hello Savannah,

    Great Pitch! I think the way you approached the explanation process for your product was great and really explained how your service would provide beneficial to those who need that service. I also enjoy how you asked for specific feedback after your pitch that way you get the most comments and feedback to help learn about things for the next pitch.

30A – Final Reflection

Image
1. From the first assignment, the bu lists, we have learned so much. The bug list was an excellent assignment to start the course. I allowed me to get into the headspace as a business person. To recognize the flaws or ‘bugs’ faulty in the world and look to create something that could affect it positively. And that’s what we learned throughout this course. Finding an opportunity and acting on it, that is what an entrepreneur is. 2. What sticks out to me the most is the idea that you planted is that the fact that we all just want money. It is essential to do what we need to do now to make money and focus on the bigger picture later. What I’m most proud of is the way I developed a full business idea and have the experience to know the steps of creating a product/service. 3. I do now see myself more as an entrepreneur, and I feel that I have grown the entrepreneur mindset. 4. One recommendation I would make to students is to be open-minded through this course and really learn from ea...

26A – Celebrating Failure

A time this past semester that I failed was when I was doing laundry. And I know what your thinking, but your wrong, I know how to do my own laundry. Unfortunately, I just made the wrong decision on my part. I had a shirt that was relatively old and pink. I was doing a whitewash, and I thought, 'ya know I don't think it will run; its been in the wash too many times to do that.' But thirty minutes later I found out I was wrong and it bled all my other clothes in the wash with it. From this experience, I learned from it, and what I learned was to don't take a chance just to do another load. And from this story, I hope you all learn from my mistake. Failure is critical in life. From failure, you learn; you learn from your mistakes and more about yourself. I handle failure pretty well. I have been through a lot in my life where I have learned the hard way that failure is okay and what makes you a better person is to take on that failure and do better from it. This class has...

28A – Your Exit Strategy

1. I intend to grow my business to all that it is worth, and if an opportunity comes for me to sell, then, of course, I will take that opportunity, but my main goal would be to run this business to the end. My existing strategy will be when I retire and hopefully pass on the business through my family. 2. I choose this to be my exit strategy because I want to grow and run the business to my full potential and then pass it on through my family to keep it in the family name. 3. I think this decision relates to my human capital and personal goals. I personally would like to take the business that I grew from the ground up as far as I could and, in the end, look at my progress. From there, my family can do what they think there’s exit strategy is best for this. What I mean by this is if they decide to sell it or grow it till they retire also. It has influenced my growth intentions and how I plan to use my resources.
