19A- Idea Napkin No. 2

You- I am a business student at the University of Florida who is starting an onsite scooter repair service. I am a driven and organized person who has already had experience in starting their own business. The things I learned from my previous business can be applied to this one. 

What are you offering to customers?
I'm offering a convenient service to customers that isn't currently available. This service makes it so that customers have to put in minimal time and effort into their scooter being repaired.

Who are you offering it to?
I am offering my service to busy college students who want to have a convenient repair.

Why do they care?
They care because they will save time and energy if they do not have to wait as long for their scooter to be repaired and also because they don't have to transport it.

What are your core competencies?
I have a better understanding of the students and their needs than a typical entrepreneur would. This is because I am a current customer of my own service.

Summary-
I think that everything lines up. The fact that I am a typical customer and have experience sets me apart from other entrepreneurs. My ability to understand the customer's needs will help me provide a convenient service.

Feedback- 
The feedback I received commented on the fact that I will need to provide the service more quickly than competitors if I want to remain the preferred service.

  1. Hi Riley,
    From reading your description, you clearly have a lot of strengths and attributes that will help you in pursuit of your business. Being a student will be extremely beneficial to your pursuit as your consumer base are primarily students. Since you are a student you will be able to identify needs of students that most entrepreneurs would miss. Students are extremely busy people and your product offers convenience in an otherwise time-consuming task.
