Business Idea Expression Experiment


In my opinion, I can say gathering as a group and talking about your business idea can be easy which can be hard to me at the same time. 

Why is it easy, but also hard? 

Because in my head, I already have my ideas and basically I can visualize it. But then when I come up with too much ideas, so I have hard time to pick which one is the one I want to go along, which one is the best for me, and which one I'm interested most about it, and it starts messing around a bit. 

Second thing, when I already decided which ideas I will talk, it might be easy at first, but then in middle, I recognized there's something missing or it's not organized well. It's because I can visualize idea but that doesn't mean my head can organize all the details in that ideas, so there are always holes when I talked about my ideas and recognized it myself somehow. It's a good thing that when I talked to people and it helped me understand my ideas better, but it disturbed my thinking flow when I was talking about it. 

Third, while I already recognized the missing information in my ideas and people asked about it, I found it's hard to get the answer right, since I didn't do the research about it, such as who is your competitor, how much my product cost. I can just make it up but that's not really accurate.

This week guest speaker, Matthew Tolentino who graduated from Tacoma and work as Assistant Professor within the Electrical and Computer Engineering Department. He's founder of Intelligent Platform & Architecture (IPA) and developed technology which helped Tacoma Fire Department problem. The interesting is he had no idea with their problem at first, he just went straight and ask "what is your problem?" Somehow it's a good way to find out. Compare to Erik, I felt like Mathew has more engineering side in him more than business, but he knows the core of the entrepreneurship. He developed his product in term to solve tracking chemical spills and the “lost firefighter” problem. And when he talked about RFID systems and bread crumb trail so they can calculate the situation inside the building before the firefighters going into by transition every firefighter into a mobile sensing platform. By that, the department can get the information location, floor-plan, and vita...

Erik Hanberg Story

Since I have no experience about making a business, it's nice to have a person who has a successful business, who rolled through ups and downs in business life came to the class and tell his story which helped me imagined more about that world. The first thing I heard from him is really surprise me which is if I have a business idea, start it, even though I don't know what it's gonna be, where it's gonna go. I'm a person who always think a lot before doing anything, if I don't know where I go, I'm not gonna start anything, you could say that's I'm hesitating a lot. And after that, Erik shared more about his life, how he maintains his money flow and keep the base for his main business by he and his wife doing different things beside the main side x side business which is teaching, writing book,...The money from it is lower than the main one, but it seems less peak up and down, so when things happened for the main business, he still has a back up p...
