βSuccess can be engineered by following the right process, which means it can be learned, and...it can be taught.βκ· After 10 long exhausting weeks, we are almost at the conclusion of our entrepreneurial journey. As for this final journal, the recent two video presentations provided new insights on the relevance of building an MVP as well as the appropriate approach when pitching. The presentations highlighted the importance taking matters logical, systematical, and small because after all, we want to deliver services to the community that will help them in their daily lives and also maintain the service relevant and profitable in our part. It also underlined to choose the right target market or the focused population for a too broad scope will not be sustainable for the product to exist in the market. Aside from that, one thing that did leave an impression on me are the idea of the words βsmallβ and βlazy.β These two words, though not frequently mentioned nor ever mentioned especially βlazyβ in the presentation, are something to ponder on. Most of the services or products in the conventional world nowadays cannot be argued to have a purpose of making life fast, easy, and convenient thus they existed. In its very essence, products or services are made sometimes because people feel lackadaisical or just probably busy on doing other matters. Then, here comes the entrepreneurial industry, ready to resolve creatively and ergonomically even the minuscule and nonsensical yet impactful to oneβs everyday life and activities. In my defense, lazy or laziness cannot be just connoted negatively because we have different reasons and have different routines. The idea of these words were embedded in me that no matter how small or negligible a problem to somebody or for you, we cannot generalize and have the assumption that every individual experiences the same level of difficulty nor influence of that problem you or I experience in our day to day lives. In my standpoint, an empathetic attitude should also be harnessed and flourish if we are to take part in this industry for us to build a sustainable and βscalableβ products and services with our focused population in providing new ways to resolve their problems and concerns.
In these previous weeks, our group also kept on tracking the survey and the respondentsβ feedbacks. So far, we have been able to establish a part of the whole product that we are planning and aspiring to help our fellow Filipinos, especially to the chosen target group. The group also had a discussion on the case analysis regarding on a US based company base brand named βDoordash.β We have so much to learn from them especially that our project service is almost similar to their system. Albeit, the group have progressed well compared from the very first stage of our development. In sum, as entrepreneurs or budding entrepreneurs, learning from the perspective of the people or the customer should always be a priority. This way, a strong foundational concept can be built and developed to serve their needs. A part from that, we should also acknowledge that no idea or problem is too small to solve. With a creative mind and imagination anything ca be made possible. However, for we have entered the world of entrepreneurship, I reckon it is not yet the conclusion of our journey but rather the beginning of a long promising and hopeful path.
