1.
My name is Mary Sigmon, I am a fourth year
information systems student at the University of Florida. Some of my skills
include analytical ability, good team worker senses, and I’m quick on my feet.
One of the experiences I have has is working for Wells Fargo at the preview
last summer. I got to interact with customers every day and explain how we
could help them out. I see this business in my life because I have been
traveling so much recently and I think it could really help.

I am offering a faster way to get through
airport security. Imagine you are running late to your flight and you miss it because
the security took so long being inefficient.
3.
I am offering this product to all the passengers
that go through the airport. Everyone taking a flight somewhere will benefit
from this. The thing they all have in common is the fact that they travel.
4.
Airports will actually pay to have this product
because it will make customers so much happier and it will improve their
overall operations. Everything will be much smoother and easier to manage.
5.
My core competencies include my great team
working ability. It is like no other. I am dedicated to the team and its goals
and will work until they have been achieved.
These elements will fit together because I
have personally been a customer in this situation so I know what it is like to
be in their position.
Some feedback I received last time was that people
would greatly appreciate this product as everyone is just trying to get through
the airport as fast as possible. Some other advice I received was that I should
use the technical skills I used to make this product work. I incorporated this
into my napkin by describing how I would make it work.
Really good post Mary, I think you did a great job going from the first Idea Napkin to the second one. I think it’s great how passionate you are about team success and believe that goes perfectly with your idea. If you were to try to potentially sell to an airport, they are going to want everything, in detail, up front and ready to go as they won’t have time for mistakes. Since you are someone who is so passionate about teamwork, I feel that you would do whatever it takes to meet that deadline and make sure your product is perfect for the purchaser.
ReplyDeleteHey Mary,
ReplyDeleteYour first napkin was great, your idea could be a major change that we need. I still fear the execution could be impossible due to the way government bureaucracy mandates the security not any particular company but if you managed to create a scan that was effective and fast you can bet that I'll be right there supporting it.
