17A- Elevator Pitch

-
For this elevator pitch, I made sure to fix my posture and have better eye contact.  I also worked harder to convey the details of my business and give my personal background this time.  I look forward to getting more comfortable with this pitch and sharing it with others.

    Hey Emily,
    You definitely improved on your second pitch. You did not look down and kept eye contact. Advice I would give you is to stand up because I think that would feel more natural and it is great practice. I also think you should dress up more business casual. Lastly, I would memorize your pitch. It would make you more confident and it would feel more natural. Overall, great job.

    Hi!
    You seem more comfortable and confident in this second version of your elevator pitch. You spoke about your own personal experience with late night snacks, which provided a nice anecdotal aspect to your pitch. I agree with Monica in that dressing more business-like would add a level of professionalism to your pitch. The speed of your pitch is at a good level and it was easy to follow. Overall, great job with your elevator pitch!

    I think that you made some really good improvements to your original elevator pitch. You kept your eyes looking at the camera (person) which conveys confidence. Not to mention, I really enjoyed the personal reference to your experience with food options in Gainesville. It made me feel like you could relate to the problems that other people have. I believe you could improve by practicing your speech by standing and using some gestures. Without standing, it is harder to convey passion and connect with the person you are speaking too.

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...

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...
