1) Me
VRIN: I am unique just like anyone else which gives me a different perspective. Basically the VRIN definition.
2) My contacts through friends and family friends
VRIN: The contacts that I know aren't 100% unique to me because other people can know them but the combination sets me apart.
3) Likability across different individual groups
VRIN: Again this is the same as #1 now looking back on it so the same as the first point.
4) Everybody has to ship things
VRIN: Literally everyone ships which makes this important and valuable but people can ship through other companies.
5) Lots of people are upset about shipping prices and damaged items
VRIN: A lot of people have many complaints which makes this important and valuable but not all people have issues.
6) Fun friendly young environment
VRIN: I find that especially the millennial age like to work in places where it is relaxed which makes it valuable but it isn't that rare now a days.
7) Technological copyright of the app
VRIN: The app being proprietary would be very rare and valuable because no one can copy what we do. Honestly I believe that this is one of the most important things.
8) Convenience
VRIN: The convenience is valuable but not rare or inimitable.
9) Experience in shipping a lot of things
VRIN:Me being good at shipping things again isn't very rare.
10) Willingness to work hard to get it done
VRIN:This is kind of a hard thing to quantify where everyone in entrepreneurship has.
My most important resource is the app itself because it optimizes the rare, valuable and inimitable thing because its proprietary.
Hey Garrett!
ReplyDeleteI believe your idea really fits into the growing online economy in our society. More and more people are transitioning to primarily online shopping simply for convenience . And if it is convenience they are searching for, your app defiantly delivers. I think one of the most important topics you covered was the problem of shipping costs. Many times I have gone to checkout on amazon only to delete my whole cart because shipping was going to cost twice as much as my items. Great work!
