Idea Napkin No. 2

Second Shot

You:  As I said before,  I'm a sophomore in college who has built working robots, solar-powered go-kart, volunteered for an agricultural business and various other places. I have a knack for finding a new way around something if the old or original way doesn't work out for me. As for aspirations, I'm still thinking about those. I see my product being useful in my life as I often don't have a place to put my phone when I sleep or sometimes don't know where it is plus I have terrible short term memory so I will forget to water my plant.

What are you offering to customers:  What I am now offering is a product that will make use of your small plants (for now) and to have a place to put your phone. You'll be able to place your phone on an adjustable metal tray so that when your phone vibrates from an alarm, notification, or text the vibrations from you phone will travel through the metal and shake the small canister of water to allow water to trickle down the dense polymer filter.

This product will provide a place to put your phone when you decide to sleep for the night so you won't lose it while also watering your plant. With this you'll have a spot for your phone while also growing a beautiful plant.
This blog post could help clarify if still unsure:

Who are you offering it to:  I'm offering this to every individual who may have trouble locating their phones, want a place to put their phone, forgets to water their plant from time to time, or maybe just want something that can look cool and be a conversation piece for your guests. 

Why do they care:  More and more people feel the need to be environmentally friendly or find something in their daily life that they can change to give back. With this "Potter Spotter" (name in pending) you will be able to grow that plant you never have time to tender while also having a reliable placeholder for your phone or other devices.

What are our core competencies: I'm putting together what you already may have to provide a convenience for you. Doesn't set me much apart but it's also not creating something entirely new like what a lot of people try to do. As others may have experience with this, I am inexperienced.

     I do believe that this idea fits together and makes more sense than my previous napkin idea as I now provide an explanation of what my product is as well as a video. A weak point may include the overall use of something like this in this day and age.

With the feedback from my last idea napkin, the main issue was describing what my product actually was and not just he concept of it.
A few point I took from the feedback include:
1. Unclear product idea - I provided a blog post describing said product
2. Past experience - I restated my past experiences with engineering and technology
3. Overall usefulness of my idea - Described the products use, fundamentally
4. Passion - The blog post and drawn idea in the video
5. Presentation - Clearer or more direct
