Week 7 Reading Reflection

What I found to be the most interesting aspect of Chapter 6 of the textbook was the "Profile Analysis Approach".  The Profile Analysis Approach is something that enables entrepreneurs to judge a business venture's potential by sizing up the ventures strength and weaknesses along a number of key dimensions or variables.


One concept that was confusing to me was the subject of "The Feasibility Criteria Approach".  The multiple bullet points and factors that tied into this subject made it difficult to understand.  I believe this section of the chapter could've been shortened


Question 1:  Do you believe that the design methodology development process will be useful in the future?

Question 2: Which, in your opinion, is a better process. The Design Methodology Development process or the Lean Start Up Methodology Process?

I would ask the author these questions because I was very interested in these two processes.  I would love to know the author's own personal opinion on the two.  I believe the Lean Start Up process is much more effective.

I can't say that I disagree with what the author had to say in this chapter.  I find that the further that I venture into this book the more I agree with the author.

Elevator Pitch No. 2

The feedback that I received on my first video was very productive.  The people that chose to comment on my post said that my idea was creative and most of them had positive things to say.  I was very surprised at the fact that some people said that I looked nervous while I was giving my Elevator Pitch.  Knowing me, I know that I never shy away from the camera, so that was surprising to see.

Based on the couple of comments on my abilities to be on camera. I tried to speak louder and look more directly into the camera.  I wanted my viewers to feel closer to the idea and to the passion I feel towards my idea.
