Idea Napkin No. 2

I unfortunately wasn't able to complete the first idea napkin, so that puts me behind because I don't have any feedback as of yet.

1)You. I am Alex Broderick. I am a first year Computer Science major at the University of Florida and Innovation Academy. My talents and skills include coding, leadership, and a huge passion for sports. My aspirations are to become a successful programmer, and make a difference in the world in any way that I possibly can. For my business concept, I see this business playing the biggest role in my life. This is a concept that I will have to constantly monitor forever, and that will keep me focused on one thing, making my customers happy.

2)What are you offering to customers? My product, or program if you prefer, is something that will start out as a scheduling application for the four major North American sports, including baseball, basketball, football, and hockey. The reason that this solves a problem is because ever since the creation of every single one of these four leagues, there hasn't been an algorithm that can create the schedule for years and years in advance with taking into account the season rules for each sport, while also maximizing the efficiency of the travel schedules along with off-days for travel. I have seen too many times, a team go from the east coast to the west coast over night for an afternoon game the next day, and I think I can do something about this.

3)Who are you offering it to? This program will be exclusively offered to just the front offices of the four major sports, and after that gets off the ground, I plan to expand the program for other professional and non-professional schedules. Along with this, I plan to open the application to bigger businesses to plan out travel for their employees and clients travel schedules.

4)Why do they care? My demographic cares because it will make things insanely easier, and all those effected by these huge businesses, for example, a player on one of the MLB teams, will appreciate the travel schedule so it isn't as rigorous for the rest of their careers in comparison to what it's like now.

5)What are your core competencies? What sets me apart from everyone else is that I am trying to put everyone else before the money. I know that the business world is built on money, but I think that the consumer comes before that, and the foundation for a great product is great consumer satisfaction. Every player in every league deserves a change to their schedules to make things less painstaking. What I have that no one else haves is this program. No one else has put the athletes first, because these sports have been about their money, and will keep things the same as long as they're making a profit.

I really do believe in this program, and what it can do. I think it could benefit everyone in these demographics, but in due time, it can help everyone just like you and me. I do, of course, think that there is always space for improvement and the ability to adjust plans based on reality. On the other hand, I know what I want, and I have a good idea for going about it, so I will do everything in my power to accomplish that.
