Elevator Pitch 3

What stood out to me most was a comment that said to add maybe recipes and different components to take it all the way from the grocery store to the dinner plates at your house. Also, what I found was another piece of good advice was to make it sound natural. So I think I made it more natural and spoke more from the top of my head with a idea instead of word for word what I was going to say.

What makes me difference between other companies is a passion to continue no matter what. Also, even though I would enter a very heavily crowded mark I would still be able to adjust and create opportunity through the big pro

fit margin in the organic industry. Also, with a surge in demand for organic supermarkets we can create more demand for the app by adding in specials and information on seasonal fruits and veggies that are on sale.

Idea Napkin 2

 You. My name is Fernando Perez and I am a food and resource economics major. Based on some of the feed back I received I would like to revamp my idea into a whole new one.

2) What are you offering to customers? What I would like to do is create an electronic shopping list that gives you the best deals in prices like no other. Creating formulas and working coupons together to get the best deal on groceries possible.  

3) Who are you offering it to? My customers are very broad. They all enjoy to shop and save money which is everyone.

4) Why do they care? Because people love to pay for convience and they love ot save money. With a small nomial subscpition they will see that it will pay for it self.

5) What are your core competencies

My core competencies are putting the consumer first. Showing them that there are people who are look out for them and their families by saving money.

I believe in these five things because I love to help people, this is something I actually have had to study on. I also believe save time is better than save money and when you can accomplish both is when you can be successful.

I changed most of my idea by instead of them going out and using these tactics they would be able to scan these items and pick them up at a local supermarket. The feed back I mostly got was there were similar apps on the market so I decide to make it better.
