Elevator pitch

-
We live in an age of customization and instant gratification.  We go to places like Chipotle and Blaze where we can build our own order and get exactly what we want within minutes.  We have plenty of lunch and dinner options but are lacking a breakfast place, especially one that goes beyond the typical breakfast hours.  Stacked is a concept that I have developed for a customizable restaurant in which you pick your bases, toppings, and sauces for various breakfast dishes and ultimately build your own platter.   This restaurant would be located in Gainesville, preferably downtown so that it is a trendy setting for brunch and a cool place to hangout after going to local bars or clubs.  Stacked will be open 24 hours and which will be especially convenient to those that need a quick bite before class, or a late snack after studying or hanging with friends.The restaurant will go above and beyond to exceed customer expectations through healthy alternatives such as a juice bar as well as unhealthy snacks such as double chocolate chip pancakes and chocolate sauces.  The possibilities are endless and I am confident that Stacked will bring the energy and food that Gainesville truly needs to satisfy its young adult residents.

    I thought you did a great job with your elevator pitch! You provided a lot of information in a short amount of time (the basic idea of your business, what makes it different from existing competitors, hours of operation, etc.). I noticed that you mentioned that Stacked would offer "unhealthy" options, which, while waffles and pancakes aren't necessarily healthy, marketing them as a negative could drive away your customers. Other than that, you spoke with confidence and clarity.

    Hey Emily,
    You had a lot of good information in your elevator pitch. I think keeping eye contact and maybe alternating your pitch more would keep your audience engaged. Adding a statistic in the beginning as well would be cool to hear such as how many people say their favorite food is breakfast food. Overall, I enjoyed your pitch and love your idea!

    I really liked how you started off by discussing an overall trend in our generation regarding instant gratification. I believe this is one of the reasons that your opportunity exists. Not only is there not a restaurant fulfilling this need, but the demand for this type of restaurant is growing. I think your demeanor and confidence was very professional. The only complaint that I have is your lack of eye contact with the camera. This is an important factor when presenting someone with your business idea because eye contact helps them make a connection to you and your ideas.

27A – Reading Reflection No. 3

-
1) What was the general theme or argument of the book? I decided to read  The Art of Social Media: Power Tips for Power Users by Guy Kawaski because I am very interested in social media and the ways in which it connects us to other users more efficiently. By reading this book, I was able to gain powerful strategies and insights into what it takes to have a strong social media presence and maintain beneficial followers. 2) How did the book, in your opinion, connect with and enhance what you are learning in ENT 3003? This book definitely enhanced my learning in ENT 3003 because social media has become such a big part of marketing for so many businesses and I wanted to improve my knowledge on this essential tool to promote my ideas.  I am very passionate about my business "Stacked" and can think of several campaigns that I could complete on Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook.  3) If you had to design an exercise for this class, based on the book you read, wha...

7A – Testing the Hypothesis, Part 1

1. Opportunity There is currently no place in Gainesville that provides people with the opportunity to get breakfast food in a customizable, fast-food set up and is open 24 hours.  After going out, many people seek comfort foods such as pancakes, waffles, eggs etc but there is not a place that is open really late and is in the areas that people go out at.  Also, there is an increasing trend with places that are set up like Chipotle, Grill Fresh, Bolay and other places that allow the customers to customize their meals with a variety of options. 2.  Background Info The who:  College students/ Millenials The what: There is a lack of convenient breakfast places that are open 24 hours and are in a fast-food, customization set-up The why:  Restaurants may not have the start-up capital and resources to open up a place that is open during late hours and has fresh foods. 3. Tests Testing the who:  I believe that there are others who have this need besides c...

12A – Figuring Out Buyer Behavior No. 1

1) Segment- The segment of my market that I have chosen to analyze is college students, particularly those that attend the University of Florida in Gainesville and like to go out. 2) Interviewees- I decided to interview two females and one male for the purpose of this project.  All three of them are college sophomores and explained that they like to go out with friends frequently during the evening. 3-5)  I learned that the latest that would be necessary for the restaurant to be opened would most likely be until 3 AM because after this hour people usually return to their homes.  Additionally, there are some nights where this concept would seem more desirable than others such as Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays.  On nights such as Sundays and Mondays, this concept would not seem as appealing during the late hours and it may be desirable to make shorter hours during these time periods to save money on paying staff.  Additionally, my interviewees emphasiz...
