My Unfair Advantage

Here is a list of my 10 resources:

      1.       I am quite adamant about making things easier for other people, and for myself for that matter. I will do pretty much anything to make other’s lives easier, and I really think this product will help me do so.

a.       VRIN: Fairly valuable (I feel that there are times where this can help me), fairly rare (there are probably some others that feel the same way), somewhat inimitable, non-substitutable.

      2.       I give just about 110% in everything that I do.

a.       VRIN: Very valuable (effort is important), somewhat rare (not everyone gives a lot of effort), kind of inimitable (not found in everyone, but I’m sure everyone has the potential to give effort), non-substitutable.

      3.       I am very enthusiastic when it comes to making things easier for others.

a.       VRIN: Valuable (who would buy from someone not enthusiastic about their work?), somewhat rare (not everyone is enthusiastic), inimitable (everyone express enthusiasm in different ways), non-substitutable.

      4.       I know how and where to get the materials I need for this program, at almost the click of a button.

a.       VRIN: Valuable, rare, inimitable, non-substitutable.

      5.       This class has helped me come up with this idea, and has given me a lot of insight on business creation.

a.       VRIN: Very valuable, very rare (it is unique to the university, and frankly, to the state of Florida), very inimitable, somewhat non-substitutable (there are probably other schools that offer this course, but I’m sure it isn’t structured how this class is).

      6.       I have shaped a pretty good network of people that I could consult if I ever need help.

a.       VRIN: Very valuable (it's not what you know, it's who you know), rare in that everyone knows different people, inimitable for the same reason it is rare, non-substitutable because it's very difficult to go on business ventures alone.

      7.       I have a lot of knowledge on how these sports work, and how to create this program with my own hands, from scratch.

a.       VRIN: Very valuable, not very rare (a lot of other people possess the same kind of knowledge), somewhat inimitable (I have a different perspective than everyone else, but others can still see what I see to a certain point), non-substitutable.

      8.       My product can help a lot of people and athletes, whether or not they notice.

a.       VRIN: Valuable (making things easier and more efficient is important), not very rare (a lot of things can help be more efficient), inimitable, definitely non-substitutable.

      9.       My program has a wide range of potential uses.

a.       VRIN: Very valuable, somewhat rare (not many products can be used for a bunch of different things), not really inimitable, non-substitutable.

      10.   I have a lot of experience coding, and a lot of perspective with my love of sports and connection to baseball specifically.

a.       VRIN: Very valuable (it gives me a specific insight to how it works, and how it would feel to have a change), very rare (not a lot of programmers look at the consumer part of things, and how much of an effect their product has on them), inimitable, non-substitutable.

I believe that my top resource is my insight into the world of sports connected with insight into the world of coding. I would not be able to, nor would I want to if I didn’t have this specific combination.
