About
The problem is that Hy-Vee wants to develop better communication with customers. The problem right now is that not a lot of Hy-Vee customers know how to access the weekly ads and coupons, and elderly people, who dont all use the internet, dont know how to get those things. Our solution includes a modified way of promotion the ads that get sent out in the mail. As of rigtht now Hy-Vee has it set up to where you have to be a member of the fuel savers program that Hy-Vee in order to recieve ads and coupons in the mail, but the problem there is that you would have to specifically ask how to get that done, and what steps youd have to take to get signed up, and its just a very long and unnecessary process. A solution I had in mind was setting up a space in the coupon book or weekly ad page or both thats set apart that advertises how to recieve certain things in the mail once again. Our main audience is Hy-Vee customers, mainly the ones that specifically go in just for the purpose of grabbing the weekly ads. (Total Words 195)

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.
