Elevator Pitch No. 3

1) The pitch. 
https://youtu.be/R8EW5uYBEKs
2) A reflection on the feedback you received from your last pitch. 
I was glad to hear mostly positive feedback because I find it hard to present something in front of a crowd, even if it was a recording. The feedback that stood out to me as important was based on my delivery, I was told that I could be a little more confident in my delivery because it seem as though I was stuttering and stumbling on my words. I do agree with that feedback because when I get nervous I do tend to stutter, making it hard to express what I really want to say. 
3) What did you change, based on the feedback?
I made sure to almost memorize my pitch but also make it more personal because I do not want to seem like a robot. I wanted to sound natural and enthusiastic about my idea so that my listeners would be as engaged as I am on the topic. I was probably a little shaky and seem unprepared in my last pitch so I wanted to make sure that that was one of the first things that I fix in this pitch.

    Hi Mia,
    Your pitch did seem natural, and it was also great that you were enthusiastic about the topic. It showed that you knew what you were speaking on, and that the audience should show interest. Your professional attire also showed that you were taking the pitch seriously, and you were engaging during the pitch instead of being seated throughout.

    Hi Mia,
    As someone who stutters and is a little uncomfortable publicly speaking too, I think you did a really great job this time! But, practice makes perfect as Dr. Pryor says. You seemed very driven and ready to share your product when I watched your speech. Overall, I believe you did an amazing job with your third elevator pitch! Nice Job!

Your Venture's Unfair Advantage

Generate a list of all of the resources in your venture (produce a list of at least 10 resources that you already possess). This can include your human capital, social capital, financial capital, and capabilities.

Figuring Out Buyer Behavior No.2

Begin with alternative evaluation.  My business idea is to start a company that provides eye wear for those who have lower nose bridges and have a hard time finding good fitting eye wear in the market right now. For my customers, I believe that when they are looking for the perfect eye wear for them, they consider the style of the eye wear as important. I believe so because even if the eye wear is reasonably priced, but they do not like how it looks on them, they will not buy the product. Since this will be something that will be worn out where others can see, the style will have to be perfect for the customer to be confident in what they are wearing. In addition to the style, the fit would be the most important aspect to my customers. Considering my whole business is based off how eye wear will fit those who have a lower nose bridge, I hope that my customers will take advantage of this and find eye wear that fits them best.  How/where do they buy?  For my business, ...

Reading Reflection No. 2

I read How to Fail at Almost Everything and Still Win Big  by Scott Adams . 1) What was the general theme or argument of the book? The general theme of the book is that one cannot be discouraged after failing. Scott Adams had failed in so much in his life that he wrote a book all about it, yet he was still able to succeed in something that he grew a lot of passion for and he probably doesn't regret the route that he took to get there. He learned from his past experiences, took them and applied it to his next new adventure, whether it be a new business or a new job. He wanted us to learn from his book that our failures are what puts us on that path of success that we desire, and that if we work smarter, then we can all get there eventually.  2) How did the book, in your opinion, connect with and enhance what you are learning in ENT 3003? In my opinion, I think the book connected with and enhanced what I was learning in ENT 3003 when it came to starting a business, but no...
