AN ENTREPRENEURIAL MIND JOURNEY

NEWS FLASH!

I, Kiana F. Palmares, am not that interested with entrepreneurial mind in the first place. However, this subject has sparked something in me. It kind of tickled my mind to do and explore some things about this field. Through this course, I have learned to turn problems into opportunities. I have also realized that this field is not that easy as it may seem to others. Moreso, I learned how to manage my time properly, and how to interact with people more effectively. This Final term has gone by so passed and the events that we have conducted are the Final Term Pitching and the Lecture Series.

Last April 30, 2024, WeFetch! had their Final term Pitching at the College of Business and Management building, Employee Lounge. The proponents of this proposed application are the following: Samantha Angelie Alonzo, Raul Gacang Jr., Kristel Jane Francisco, Kiana Palmares, Charimaine Penola, Mark Kenjie Penoso, Christian Lloyd Tonson, and Michael Yotoko. They have discussed the details of their application including how it will work, its fixed rates for every service that will be offered, and details about its value propositions.

The pitcher was Palmares; scriptwriters were Gacang, Tonson, and Yotoko; and the ones who led the making of PowerPoint presentation and the prototype of the application were Francisco, Penola, and Penoso. Alonzo is then assigned to the video production and other details needed for the making of the app. Thus, the workloads of each of the members of the group were equally divided.

Their Final Pitching went much better for them. They are the fifth presenter from their class to pitch their proposed service. The panelists this time listened to their talks. However, the former raised some concerns especially on the rates of the service. They asked if how we are going to manage such big target market with only limited resources and affordable rates. After defending our proposed venture, we have agreed to polish everything if we will opt to continue working on this application. The panelists also made us realized that there will be competitors anywhere, so we must be diligent enough to be better than them.

May 8, 2024. The GEE 16 conducted their Lecture Series at the University Convention Center. There are four speakers who have spoken about the most important things to remember in this field. For instance, they have discussed about what a startup is and how to classify it from others. Moreover, they also highlighted the importance of different aspects that will be relevant in entrepreneurship. Looking forward to more events like this soon because it served as an eye opener for everyone who is and will be working in this field soon.

so many people loved it but for me it was eh ♡ paulo avelino’s character was pretty lacking for me, i wish they’d elaborated more on him ♡ but i liked the group dynamic because they’re not the wholesome, fake happy kind of friends, seeing them interact made me feel like they’re people i really know in real life (which made me miss my own friends) ♡ even jasmine’s character felt real because she’s probably someone i’d know HAHA ♡ fun fact: i’ve listened to the song lloydy long before watching this because i mean?

Finding Consumers: A Journey to Providing Convenience

NEWS UPDATE!

WeFetch! had their Midterm Pitching at the College of Business and Management building, Employee Lounge, last March 5, 2024. The proponents of this proposed application are the following: Samantha Angelie Alonzo, Raul Gacang Jr., Kristel Jane Francisco, Kiana Palmares, Charimaine Penola, Mark Kenjie Penoso, Christian Lloyd Tonson, and Michael Yotoko. They discussed the details of their application including how it will work, who will benefit from it and who are their target customers and consumers. Moreover, they discussed the job opportunities they will offer upon the release of this said software application.

The pitcher was Palmares; scriptwriters were Gacang, Tonson, and Yotoko; and the ones who led the making of PowerPoint presentation were Alonzo, Francisco, Penola, and Penoso. Thus, the workloads of each of the members of the group were equally divided.

Their Midterm Pitching didn't went well for them, honestly. They are the sixth group from their class to pitch their proposed service. However, even from the beginning, the panels were talking to each other and weren't listening, but Palmares continued pitching. During the question and answer portion, the panelists asked questions that was already discussed by the pitcher earlier. They had clarified things that was supposed to be clarified already, if they just listened to the one pitching. Moreso, their question and answer were timed. Thus, they were just inside the room for less than 20 minutes, which is kind of unfair for them because the previous groups were given much time inside the Employee Lounge and lasted for 45 minutes to an hour.

Nevertheless, the group just took it as an inspiration to do better next time. They let things be and hoped that everything will improve the next time around.

April 16, 2024. The proponents of WeFetch! filmed the clips for their promotional video. They utilized the College of Engineering Grounds, and the College of Forestry Extension as their setting. They had Yotoko and Penoso as the main charaters, Gacang and Tonson as WeFetch! riders, Francisco and Penola as the ones who will finalize the app prototype, and Alonzo and Palmares as the cameramen and directors. Look forward to their advertisement!

On April 22, 2024, WeFetch! decided to go in pair to find customers who are willing to avail or use their application. They interviewed random students and highlighted the best features of the app, which includes:

Convenience to everyone anywhere inside the campus

Safer and more secure travels

Affordable fare and delivery fee

Offers part time job to students with valid driver's license and own personal vehicle

After conducting the interview, most of the respondents said that they might invest in the application due to its timeliness, relevance and convenience. However, concerns from each of them followed:

Online access of the app: strong internet connection is needed and it might not be available everywhere

Affordable fare and delivery fee: profit of rider and the app owners might be compromised or they might be bankrupt

Showing of driver's license: it might go against the Data Privacy Act of 2012

Snips from the interview:

Kiana Palmares, the team leader then said, "Even though they call or refer our app as something "generic" or "common", one can't deny the fact that it is what the majority of the population wanted. They want something that can provide them with ease and convenience, with only having an affordable amount. On the other side, our software application still needs a lot of improvement that we need to work on before fully developing it. Thus, we will do better. Thank you!"

Seeking Validation: An Initial Quest in Providing Convenience

JUST NOW!

WeFetch! recently conducted their venture proposal at the College of Business and Management building, ACCY 3 room last February 13, 2024. The proponents of this proposed application are the following: Samantha Angelie Alonzo, Raul Gacang Jr., Kristel Jane Francisco, Kiana Palmares, Charimaine Penola, Mark Kenjie Penoso, Christian Lloyd Tonson, and Michael Yotoko.

The pitchers were Alonzo and Palmares; scriptwriters were Gacang, Tonson, and Yotoko; and the ones who led the making of PowerPoint presentation were Francisco, Penola, and Palmares. Thus, the workloads of each of the members of the group were equally divided.

As quoted from the comment of their panelist, “Need lang ninyo iimprove inyong infographics, guys. Chada na ang presentation but you need to work on it nga dili siya confusing tan-awon.”, the proponents then took note of it and will strive to improve their software application.

On February 22, 2024, the proponents of WeFetch! go in pair to seek validation from their prospect customers. They interviewed random students and highlighted the best features of the app, which includes:

Faster transactions

Safer travels

Affordable fare and fee

Secure journey

Offers part time opportunities

After the said interview, most of the responses said that they might invest in the application due to its timeliness and relevance. However, concerns from each of them followed:

Online access of the app: strong internet connection cannot be accessible anywhere in the campus

Limited number of riders: concerns on unavailable rider

Contact number: contact number of the management must be provided to still cater the needs of a customer in cases wherein online access cannot be possible

Snips of the customer validation interview:

On the same day of the customer validation, the proponents gathered to sum up their ideas for their Business Model Canvas, which will be used for their mid-term pitching on March 5, 2024. Forming a circle, they exchanged ideas, suggested improvements, and neglected some possible flaws in the making of the app.

Cost structure, revenue streams, and customer relationships are what needs to be improved in the Business Model Canvas.

"Seeking validation from customers shed a light to us. Through this activity, it made us realize the possible risks and concerns of the application by the time it will be implemented. It has opened our eyes to seeing the better version of our app. Therefore, I have learned that in creating something for the community, one must need to gather views and opinions from different people in order to acknowledge and decipher the best version of the service that will be given",

quoted in the statement of Kiana Palmares, the team leader.
