معلومات عنا

Hello! I'm Ada Knechtel the mastermind behind AK Creates. I am a 10th grader at Shawnee Mission West and I am always finding a way to be creative. When I was just 11, during the pandemic, I was on a mission to start a business. I thought it would be so fun selling my art (and as a bonus I would be able to spread some positivity and happiness in the world during that tough time).

مشكلة

At an early age I noticed that there is a lot of negativity in our everyday lives. When I founded AK Creates, it was during quarantine, when people needed easy ways to uplift each other and stay in touch.

حل

Bright and colorful stationery that promotes positivity! This includes greeting cards that can be sent to loved ones to cheer them up, cute stickers with motivational messages, notepads encouraging productivity, and notebooks custom designed to match your style!

السوق المستهدف

Millennials and Gen X females that are employed in the United States, but open to anyone who likes cute paper goods that brighten their day.

التأثير المجتمعي

الخطوات التالية

مدارسنا ومناطقنا

I think I did a good job making a professional image for myself and exerted confidence while presenting to show that I am prepared.

You’ve done an excellent job with your FocusFlow pitch! Your ability to clearly articulate the problem and present a well-thought-out solution is impressive. The integration of the Pomodoro Technique with white noise is a smart approach, as it draws on proven methods to address common productivity challenges. Your detailed plan for moving the project forward, including market research, the development of an MVP, and strategic marketing efforts, shows a strong understanding of what it takes to bring an innovative product to market. I also appreciate your awareness of potential challenges, such as market differentiation and scalability, and your consideration of strategies to overcome them. Keep up the great work, and continue refining your strategy as you gather more feedback—your proactive approach is a key strength!

Your perspective is incredibly insightful! Highlighting the calendar as the greatest invention ever demonstrates remarkable depth. You've identified how it plays a crucial role in organizing our daily lives, influencing agricultural cycles, and shaping cultures worldwide. Your appreciation for such a fundamental concept truly reflects your keen awareness of how timekeeping structures our world. Keep up the great work, Evan!
