I think the first interview went well overall. It was very informative and looking back on it a lot of the stuff he discussed was brought up during our class this semester.
1. What do you believe makes your company different/better then others?
I believe that we offer a wide variety of coffees that are completely organic and cheaper then other places because we get it directly from the farmers.
2. How do you feel your company does at attracting new customers?
If I were to rank it on a scale of 1-10 I would say 7 because we do get good referrals but we have a limited budget so we can't advertise like we want to.
3. How realistic is it to start a company on your own?
Honestly it is a lot more difficult then I thought. Not so much the initial idea but the logistics of everything. It was hard managing the money and buying inventory and all of the start up costs without having the personal monetary backing.
I think that I am slightly more comfortable interviewing him. I knew him before and I was always good at presentations so it wasn't a big difference. They felt that I did good before and just as well now.
Hi Garrett,
ReplyDeleteI wish that I could gain meaningful insight from an entrepreneur in just one sentence too!! I cant really hate though, I've thought about doing the same thing for some of these posts that i don't have time for/arent interested in. However, I feel that this assignment could've brought you a lot more knowledge if you had actually tried on it. Oh well. Have a great day.
