17A: Elevator Pitch

https://youtu.be/E1fxbfbnkw8
(sorry, my phone broke, and I only had my laptop to film this on)
2) The only feedback I received was positive, other than that my peers asked that I make more gestures and stand up. 
3) I didn't change the script or anything, I just stood up, walked around, and gestured more. I felt more confident doing it this time around compared to the first time.

    Hi Fede,

    As your first elevator pitch had a good script, I think it is great that you stuck with the format and worked on your weaknesses. You definitely had great gestures and I think standing really added to the effectiveness of your pitch. I like how you walked around a bit, really adding some dynamic energy to your pitch. you most definitely appear confident and convincing.

    I did not see your first pitch, so I went back and watched that one too. I think you did a great job on both of them. This one was more dynamic and convincing. I liked that you stood up this time and you did a great job with your hand gestures. It seems like you video is cut off at the 30 second mark though…

    I watched both pitches and I can tell you seemed more confident this time. This one you really seemed to interact with the audience and have your pitch memorized very well. I did realize it was pretty short and I think the main reason for this is you may want to slow down a bit and let your audience really think about what your saying. I noticed each time we do these they become much easier. Overall great job.

30A: Final Reflection

Image
1) Read through your posts from this semester. Recall all of the experiences you've had a long the way -- the highs, the lows -- the fun moments, and the moments of drudgery, and even the moments of dread. Most weeks, mostly in the first half of the semester, I was excited to complete the assignments for this class. They tested what I wanted to learn and what I wanted to accomplish this semester as a mock entrepreneur. In the second half, I felt like the assignments were not really doing anything for me as an entrepreneur, but they were still interesting. I also had a really great time reading the assigned books. 2) What sticks out to you as the most formative experience? The experience that you'll remember years later? What was your most joyous experience? What experience are you most proud of yourself for accomplishing? The most formative experience for me was writing out my Venture Concept and seeing my idea fully fleshed out. That assignment really helped me un...

28A: Exit Strategy

1) Identify the exit strategy you plan to make. Do you intend to sell your business in the next 5 years for a large return? Do you intend to stay with the business for several decades and retire? Do you intend to protect the venture as a family business, and pass it down to your children? To be honest, as this is not the field that I want to spend my career in, I would be completely open to selling the company for a return. If I can find a buyer that I know will take care of its clients and employees, I will gladly sell it. 2) Why have you selected this particular exit strategy? Book publishing software is simply not the world I want to live in for the rest of my life. I found a solution to a problem that affects thousands of college students around the country, and I've done my job. I would rather spend my time doing something else that interests me. I would sell the company to someone who I know cares about the company. 3) How do you think your exit strategy has influen...

My Entrepreneurship Story

Image
I was exposed to entrepreneurship from a very young age. My dad has always been the entrepreneurial type; he’s always wanted to be his own boss. Back when we lived in Argentina, he hosted a radio show on the most popular station in the country, but that wasn’t enough for him. He ended up buying the station, but the economic collapse in 2001 forced him to close it. We ended up immigrating to Miami, Florida, where he started his own digital design and advertising agency called Disart Media. He ingrained in me the benefits of being your own boss and owning your own business. To this day, he is a huge influence on my life and my work ethic. While, frankly, this course is required for my major, I knew this would be a class I would enjoy and learn a lot from. Being able to run your own business is an invaluable skill, and I cannot wait to learn and grow from this class. This is a picture of me helping run the Wetlands Music Festival at Flavet Field last school year.
