Reading Reflection #2

Mindset of Success

  1. The original theme of the book is the psychology of success and how to achieve it. 
  2. This book connected with what I'm learning because I think it gives me more insight on the topics that are talked about. Not everything is just words and numbers on paper, it runs deeper than that. having the right mindset is always important when making a new product and starting a business. 
  3. I think the exercise I would design for this class would be something along the lines of brainstorming different topics. Brainstorming is a great way to get your brain working and to look deeper into topics. Reaching just the surface is not enough for something like entrepreneurship.
  4. I learned that psychology is something that is very prominent in thins industry. There is a lot of instances that requires you to dig deeper and realize what you really want with your business or yourself as an entrepreneur.

    Hello Rachel,
    I have never read any books about psychology, but it seems that this book could be very interesting as it dives into how people's mindset's affect their success with their products and themselves. A lot goes into the success of products and I think that the entrepreneur's mindset may be one of the most important factors that can be overlooked. Entrepreneurs already have a hard enough time getting their product or service to succeed but I believe it all starts in their own determination to succeed.

Existing Market : I think what's next for my venture is reaching the international market and seeing if I have any potential internationally.  After interviewing three people, they all had the same basis of what they wanted next for this product. Even though my program is online, they want it to be transcribed in person and have places that they can go and meet with a person one-on-one who is employed with the company. When I asked them about going internationally, they thought was a good idea but in their eyes it was going big too fast. They think I should worry about building a reputation in the U.S before I move on to something internationally.  After listening to m interviews, I think the best for my company ans Study Buddies is to grow as much as I can in the national market. I will look into finding places that could be designed as "headquarters" for students to come wither their parents (if needed) to sit down and have meetings about the students progress or to get

Venture Concept #1

    Opportunity : Giving students a chance to earn better grades by adding on extra study tools for them for their own advantage. There isn't any changes in the environment that is creating this opportunity. My target market is students from the grades Kindergarten to College. There is no age limit to my service but the main age range is 6 years old to 25 years old. Now, customers are currently satisfying this need by studying for themselves and gaining access to outside resources when need be. I think customers are loyal to what they are using now because they think there is nothing else better for them. I plan to change that with by service I am putting in place. This opportunity is big because I am giving students who need more help than others a chance to excel in school and develop the grades they need to feel good about going to school. The window will be open for as long as children are going to school. They will be the leading people in these next generations to come so the
