What's Next

Existing Market

My existing product, a product with watering plants, isn't really going to fall through. I may just do this as a side project and work on it from there. I can expand on it some other time.

3 Interviews in current market




Expectations/Feedback

     To grow my venture I'm going to have to figure out how to incorporate a new ecologically friendly product that would see more use in it's day. Something that's more modernized. My initial idea was for forgetful people who lose track of time and forget that they need to water their plant or even lose track of where their phone is. That was my original thoughts and people have taken it in different directions where it wasn't meant to go so a longer, more thought out explanation for further products would be implemented.
     The feedback I got was mostly positive and they gave me ideas for future implications for the original idea as well as setting me a focus to gear towards larger communities such as cities where the impact of the ecological product would be the biggest. Having a team hep me out would also be helpful as I would get more criticism and feedback that would help the business grow as well as ideas and skills that I couldn't provide on my own.


New Market

My new market would be people who live in bigger cities. More tightly knit community so it'll have  larger impact than just sell my product to anyone who has a plant. My new venture off this business would incorporate something everyone uses. Maybe a new type of environmentally friendly doormat or toothbrush.

Expectations/Feedback

     I've learned that this new larger city market will have more revenue and cause a larger impact than would just selling my original product to forgetful people. I was even suggested making an app that could help out those forgetful people that would remind them of other things they would need to do. It would be like an alarm but all in a more neatly manner and easier to categorize and look at.
    What surprised me the most, and at the same time not so much, was the negative feedback that this has already been done before or I would just being taking someone else's job away from them by just using technology. My new concept was to just make products that people use more everyday like biodegradable doormats or self-charging toothbrushes from other sources of energy like water or something. My new concept was just plants and I guess I didn't get that across as I would have liked to int he first two interviews. This new market would be more attractive as it would make a the business run easier with a larger revenue but my products may cause controversy like "This has been done before" or "It's taking away already made jobs that people do". That isn't what I'm trying to do a all. I'm just trying to make green idea innovations.
