Idea Napkin No. 1 Week 6

1.) My talents/skills consist of exceptional public speaking, logical thinking and the ability to adapt in the market place. My aspirations are to be able to immediately provide my services/ product immediately in an area that could thrive. My concept is to create an app that helps the vegan community.

2.) The product I’m offering to the customer is an app that allows the customer to have access to whether or not a certain food item from various stores are vegan.  Along with the app comes the extra perk of the app locating the individual’s location and informing what places that are vegan friendly are around the area.

3.) What my customers have in common is the need to have access to whether or not a food product is suitable for vegans. The nutritional information will be provided and then a list of possible places to get the product’s are made available on the app.

4.) My idea at first is to generate interest in the app by starting off the app at 99 cents, but by advertising the available shops to bring in more revenue.


5.) What sets me apart is my app will actually work. There are a lot of apps out there for vegans, but don’t properly work or have restrictions on what food is on the app. I have found that when you go on these different apps the odds of not finding out what you want is great.

I find that my idea is original in the sense that I have not been able to locate an app that provides what my app is trying to do. My weakness is there is some difficulty trying to get a food app out in the market.

  1. Hi, I like your idea. Food is a big deal and I personally like the idea of organics and healthy options. Having an app tailored for different communities of foods sounds like an excellent idea. I am aware the vegan community is also growing and I am sure this is an unmet need. Good work, feel free to check out my blog:

  3. Hi Patrick,

    I really like your idea and I think you did a great job explaining it. I personally have experienced this problem and I think your idea would be an effective way to solve the problem. I think that the vegan community keeps expanding and this would be extremely helpful for them. You can check out my blog at http://entgabiefleischer.blogspot.com/2016/02/idea-napkin-no-1.html

  4. Hi Patrick. Your idea sounds great since it is an app and everyone wants convenience these days. It seems like you're targeting a small market as I'm not sure vegans are too popular or maybe I just haven't heard of many around where I live. With that being said, I'd consider offering the app for free to start to see how many consumers you can get, then charge $.99 once you obtain a certain amount of people and work out the kinks with the app, as most of them have them. Overall sounds like a great idea but a lot of research will need to go into this to make sure you have accurate information on there. Good luck!

  5. Hey Patrick, I like your ambition and drive to make an app that actually works. It seems like you have experienced frustrations in the past with previous apps which is where your idea came from. You are certainly hitting a growing market and, if executed properly, will generate a lot of revenue and downloads to your app! I would consider the ways that you are going to make your app "work" compared to others. It is easy to say you will deliver something, but how are you going to set yourself a part? What will you do differently that will make your app work the best?
