Competition Brief

ProX is a Real World Learning initiative providing summer professional experiences for high school students.

About

The problem is a lack of customer involvement and awareness due to the newness of the service. This results in missed opportunities to establish a loyal customer base, word-of-mouth recommendations, and sustained growth. Our solution is to redesign social media presence, and boosting advertising of the mission near the area.
Our main audience is the customers that need to be made aware of the shop/the mission. The value of our solution would strengthen the organization and the mission. The next steps needed would be to talk to the owner about her ideas to improve.

This was a fantastic pitch! You showed how informed you are about the market space you are entering by understanding and adding in the gamification that comes with your mascot.

Your video is grate and shows how much work you have put in to a Cotten candy business! I did get lost when reading the written submission as it covers skin care products and not cotton candy. This discrepancy made the pitch unclear but a simple update and clarification would get you back on track in no time.
