Free Money

Where I went is the kangaroo gas station right by my apartment.   I approached homeless people because if I’m going to have to give away my money it might as well be to homeless people who actually need it.  They way I intended to start the conversation is by going up to them and asking if it is alright for me to give them a dollar. I believe I will be able to give all of the dollar bills away. 



I found giving away a single dollar not that hard.  However, I found it a little harder to give each dollar away the more I did it and by the 5th dollar, I was pretty disappointed that I just gave away 5 bucks that I could have probably spent on a dough religion pizza of the day.  I was right in assuming all 5 dollars would be taken, as I would probably take a free dollar given to me.

Week 7 Reading Reflection

Something that surprised me in the readings was “The Gravity of Decision Spectrum”. This concept was very interesting and I find it fascinating that there are techniques this detailed when trying to sell to customers. 

The section that was confusing was the “Drift into Nebulousness”.  I found this whole section difficult to understand, and was not aware of the point the author was trying to get across.

If I could ask two questions, the first would be for the author to explain the “Drift into Nebulousness”.  My second question would be where he obtained all of this information and if some of these concepts are from his mind.


I did not disagree with anything the author said.

Elevator Pitch. No. 2

From the feedback I received last time, I learned that my pitch needed to sell my product more.  I also learned that it needed to be longer.  No feedback surprised me, and I respected all of my peers opinions, and did not find anything silly.

I changed the length, and delivery of my pitch.  I also changed the contact to match my altered product idea, and believe I did a better job of selling it to customers.
