No Kart

     Recently we discovered an app that is exactly the same as the app we are planning to design. The link of the app is posted below. Thus, after considering, our Go Kart idea has been abandoned. Right now, we are still brainstorming ideas that are be totally different.
   
     Also we have lost our enthusiasm about our last idea because first of all, it's very challenging to make in terms of technology. So the idea that we are focusing now should probably be easier to make and interests us.

HydrationRight Continues to Develop

Since my last blog post, I have made a lot of progress with my business MVP. I have been working hard on finishing my website (see home page below) and drafting blog posts that I will publish in the next couple of weeks. I have also spend a lot of time reviewing my business and trying to answer all the hard questions I might be asked during my pitch. This next week I'd like to focus on finishing my logo so that I can open my Facebook page to the public. I would also like to work on my marketing strategy and the technology behind my product.


Stumfort Blog Post - Nov 14th

In the past few weeks, Stumfort has made constant progress and we are very close to creating our first prototype. One important step in this journey has been learning how to sew! We are currently cutting up dress shirts and stitching on snap-ons in order to fit on a sweater attachment, thereby creating a typical Stumfort product. In the near future, we are going to follow accounts on Twitter to help grow our profile and spread the word about Stumfort. We have gotten 5 followers so far and are going to tweet about how our prototype is being finalized so that we can get more attention from those who may be interested in our product.  

Mama's Meals Goals

Since Mama'a Meals last blog post we have not accomplished much since then. We did have to write 20 hard questions for our business, then our class asked us some questions about our business and we struggled to answer a few of them. We are in the process of completing our prototype and still need to print our logo. Hopefully, within the next few days we will send the prototype out, but we still have to bring in the food and place the logo on the box. We are also going to try and finish our business plan by the end of this week.

ParkMePlease in effect!

ParkMePlease will be giving discounts to all followers on any of the accounts listed above. Early adapters to ParkMePlease will receive loyalty points which will earn free parking.

Ez-Box opens into new realms

Ez-Box, previously Pack My Lunch, is doing incredibly well. Brandon and Adam traveled down Jermantown road to the Flint Hill lower school to taste test possible lunches with third and fourth grade students. We discovered that most of our healthy lunch box ideas were enjoyable for these children. As prime examples of who the lunches would be created for, they added valuable insight to our business plan. Harrison also worked closer towards a launch of the prototype and should be finished by the end of the week. Ez-Box is on the path towards success! Below is a picture of some food that the lower schoolers taste tested.
