Halfway reflection

1. Some of the behaviors I have used to keep up with this course come from time management. I have always been able to manage my time fairly well, because as a reporter, you have to be on the job almost 24/7. Since this class is online, it has taught me to manage an hour or two when needed to complete assignments. 2. I have never felt like much of an entrepreneur, and as this class does not require too much work ethic, it still requires time. There were times when I felt like giving up on an assignment, or even in other aspects like working for the Alligator and taking 17 credits. However, there will always be bad days, and this course has taught me that successful entrepreneurs and even just inspirational people don't give up when it gets hard, they keep going and manage to make themselves even better. I feel like my experience with this being my second semester as a student in college and taking on a little too much is definitely teaching me a lot, but it is also preparing me to become better in my studies and endeavors after college. 3. Three tips I would give a student coming into this class regarding tenacity would be to not give up even when they wanted to, be creative and don't just half-way complete things for the class, and apply what you learn outside the classroom. Developing these are hard in which you may have one or two down pretty well, but being able to balance everything while having other responsibilities is hard. But if you apply these in everyday life and you use them for other aspects and not just this class as well, it will help you become successful in the future too.

    Anna,

    I like your honesty. This class is not labor intensive, but it does take some time in order to do the necessary work. I think one of the best things that someone can take from this class is knowing there will be days where you do not feel like doing the work, but it still needs to be done. And it is best not to do just the bare minimum to get a good grade. There are some good things that Prof. Chris is sharing in the context of entrepreneurship that apply to life period.

Elevator Pitch 3

https://studio.youtube.com/channel/UCuctrHd0VYW4bwCPZd9qkAQ/videos/upload?d=ud&filter=%5B%5D&sort=%7B%22columnType%22%3A%22date%22%2C%22sortOrder%22%3A%22DESCENDING%22%7D I did not get comments on my last elevator pitch so I don't know what I can go off for for that question. I think I changed how I approached the camera as well as how I talked and confidence levels. I tried to make more eye contact and speak with a better and more clear voice.

Creating a Customer Avatar

My customer avatar could be a wide range of people, but if I had to be specific about who my customer was, this is what I'd imagine they would be. My customer doesn't have to be in a specific age range, but probably someone who is over 30 and is working multiple jobs. I would imagine they are hard working and try to save as much money as they can, so if this means using a bike to get to work or not having a car, they would do it. My customer avatar may have a family, probably with a few kids, but my customer avatar would probably not have a significant other or else they would be better off financially. I think my customer avatar also in her free time would be cooking and cleaning and doing things they have to get done because they wouldn't be able to afford a lot of free time. I would think that my customer is a democrat,, considering most people who live in California are and also anyone who is struggling to afford the housing there would support democrats trying to give ...

Whats Next

The next step is to implement lots that have cheaper housing so that people with lower incomes still have places to live. I didn't necessarily get a chance to talk to homeless people in California, but I did talk to people like real estate as well as people who have studied the topic in the area. The general next steps to make the product possible would be to talk to the governing body in California, and set up where these places would go. Also to contact any non-profit organizations that could help. In a different market, these places could be used as immigration centers as well. We shouldn't be holding people under terrible conditions and if this could be a way for people to get the things they need and be checked than it may work. This topic is very controversial, but making shelters like this could be a huge help if it was done the right way. At the moment there are places like this, but they don't neccesarily serve the right purpose or treat people well. I think from ...
