The First Concept's
We are Team Amazing featured below. This past Wednesday we were able to receive our classmates’ thoughts on a couple of concepts our team had come up with. Jean made simple tally marks to see which one of the four concepts our classmates liked best. She also received some very helpful feedback ranging from target markets to appliances that could help.
The first concept was a waxy substance mixed with bare ground liquid ice melt which prevents ice and snow sticking to the surfaces that it is applied to. We would be using this to put onto snowboards and ski’s. This received 7 tally marks.
The second concept was a picture frame decorated with various sticks hot glued to it. We would be collecting sticks and using them by cutting, sand papering, and gluing them around the frame. This received 4 tally marks.
Tied with the second concept is a social media marketing based business. We would (theoretically) go in to downtown businesses and make them virtual by making a website for them as well as a Facebook page, twitter account and a possibly an app.
The last concept was a delivery service of frozen milkshakes and yogurt. We would be making both of these then transporting them in a cooler of sorts to the customers. This received 3 tally marks.
