Entrepreneurship Class

My innovation would to create a new washable 3D printed permeable cast. The opportunity arises for the large amounts of individuals in need of a better cast structure that can help by being more  sensitive as well as better overall better hygiene.  Therefore, my venture concept is to apply my 3D printed permeable cast for individuals who need something better than the dated fiberglass structure that cannot be washed and can accumulate a foul smell over time. My opportunity further broken down would be for the individuals who require better hygiene and cannot do so with the traditional fiberglass cast. This need can be from small children to old people, male or female, who have a fracture of one of their two forearm bones and/or wrists. The nature of the need is for people who would like to be able to wash themselves and not have to worry about their cast becoming moldy or increasingly smelling bad. Also, the cast could be used for individuals who want are more fashionable. The force

My exit strategy is to sell my product to the distribution specialist after they realize how big of a market it could be and how it could be implemented after like 3 to 5 years of running it myself. Hopefully it would be by then that I would be able to sell it for over a million  dollars and with that money I would use to start up my real estate development business. I selected this exit strategy because I do not really want to make this my entire life. The typical entrepreneur makes their products their entire life and makes it their prime focus of their life. I want my life and my business to be about how to create a business with my family and successfully run it. I have spent the last three years of my life and am going to spend the next 2 years trying to learn all about business and all about the best practices. I want to utilize all of this information for the best and make my own company with what I have learned. This exit strategy has influenced my concept mostly because I d

Mindset- The New Psychology of Success, How we can learn to fulfill our potential - Carol S. Dweck The general theme of the book is about how you should always keep an open mindset and not be closed off to the surroundings. Keeping an open mindset keeps you outside the box and lets you stay open to new ideas. The book also breaks down the a couple different mindsets, the champion, the leader, the relationship, and the parental. They all have a different mindset and all have the same traps of why they fall into the non-growth mindset. Also, the book discusses more in depth how each mindset has different aspects and how keeping a growth mindset is always the best way. This book has enhanced the ideas of this class that my potential idea for this class of a 3D printed cast structure can always be enhanced and that I need to keep my eyes open on how to make it better instead of just staying locked in on my way. The more I let my product grow, the more it will be able to actually

Over the past semester, I have failed multiple times giving a listing presentation to individuals selling homes and they went with other agents. On these homes, the sellers wanted five different agents normally to come over and give them a "listing presentation" where we discuss our past credentials and how we will market and sell their home. My listing presentation is all about how I work on a big real estate team and have sold over 20 homes myself as well as the 250 plus that my team has sold. Also, I talk about how my marketing campaigns that I do for my homes which entails posting about them on social media, posting on the MLS, Zillow, and a couple other sites. I also talk about my database and how I already have potential clients looking for a home of that price range in their area. I failed on six different listings out of ten that I went on. What I learned was that no matter if my presentation good or not, some people just want a agent that is older and seems to hav

Existing Market People Beth Raulerson- She believed the next step was to run a social media campaign for a week and see if I could see any results of people who want to use them. When I told her my next step of making a model and showing the possible way into the field, she said that that might be a little rushed and he would want to see the people interested before seeing the product. Justin Tice- He believed my next step was to try to operate my real estate office as a partial storefront.  When I told him my idea, he said that that might be the best way but getting independent sales would make more money in the short run. Joey Mello- He believed my next step would be to make the model and start showing as many doctors as possible to spark their interests. His response to my idea was that that was brilliant and to do it instead of his idea. My next steps based on my ideas and the ideas of these people is to first make a model of the product for display. Then, with that model,
