11A - Idea Napkin No.1


1.       My name is Carlos Leon and I am currently studying business administration at the University of Florida. My talents include writing, math, and critical thinking. My skills and experiences derive from a previous job I had as an administrative assistant, which prepared me to be organized and approachable. If my business got rolling, I would be taking part in helping the health of the planet and it would push me to further improve on the size of my carbon footprint.

2.       The product I am providing to customers is solar integrated machinery that can provide electrical power to their everyday needs, including their homes and cars, to take away from the use of burning fossil fuels.

3.       This product is being offered to customers who are conscientious about the harm on the planet non-renewable energy furnishes and then deciding to participate in efforts to change those effects by investing in clean, renewable energy. The customer for this product is also interested in saving money long term, through the benefits of owning solar powered products.

4.       The customers care about this product, because it is a solution to the battle with Carbon emissions on the planet and an answer into saving money for their future.

5.       Unlike most solar companies, ours is committed to remaining a non-profit for the focus to be on helping the environment and not in making large sums of money. We also believe that customers should have their products upgraded and updated at no additional cost in order to have the latest technology being used out there.

I believe these elements fit together and can make consistent progress in finding more and better solutions to fighting global warming/climate change. If I had to say one thing that is weaker than all, it would be the “who are you offering it to” bit, because I believe everyone should have this need but there are some who don’t see the planet being harmed or don’t understand the benefits of solar energy.

    Hi Carlos,

    Being environmentally minded is more of a priority now than it was in years past. Unfortunately, not everyone is on the same page, but at least the younger generation is more aware and willing to enact change. Solar power is definitely sustainable and would be more than successful if its power can be captured and effectively converted at a usable rate. I would definitely be an interested consumer if an effective means was developed.

14A – Halfway Reflection

1.       To keep up with the requirements in this course I’ve developed an extroverted behavior towards talking to people. Because I’ve had to interview various people I’ve had to become more comfortable with approaching someone and talking to them out of the blue. This developed behavior has enabled me to complete the assignments with ease and look forward to the next time I’ll have to interview someone. 2.       When I first started my Business Law class this semester I was a bit put off by the fact that the only grades in the class were the 3 exams you had to take. After a month of reading the textbook and trying to grasp the concepts of law I felt overwhelmed by all the information and thought there would be no way I could pass the exam, feeling like I should give up. After talking to my sister, she put my mind right and helped me see the class as a learning opportunity and not a passing grade one. Since then I have developed a...

21A – Reading Reflection No. 2

The book I chose to read was The Art of Social Media: Power Tips for Power Users, by Guy Kawasaki. 1.     The general theme in this book is the topic of digital marketing and experimenting with the tools of social media to successfully connect to other people and grow your businesses.   2.       In ENT 3003, we learn about several ways in which we can use tools to build a business such as recording an elevator pitch and this book talks about several online tools that one can use to be successful, not only through social media but small details like “always have a signature for your emails.” 3.     Based on this book, the exercise I would implement in class is creating a business card. Kawasaki talks about how your business card should be made where scan websites would automatically pick up all your information and recognize the different details such as your number and email. 4.     The biggest ‘ah...

27 - Reading Reflection 3

I read  Steve Jobs  by Walter Isaacson, a biography about the life of the founder of Apple.  When reading this book, one thing that surprised me the most was why the name Apple was chosen for the company. While an apple grasped the concept of simplicity very well, the main reason was because it came before Atari in the phone book. I admired Steve‘s determination in getting things done the most. He always found a way to convince himself, and other, to work just a little bit longer to be the best. I least admired how Jobs treated some employees. He would be verbally abusive to people who didn’t meet his expectations. Jobs did face adversity, especially when he was fired from Apple and had to invest his money into other projects, like Pixar.  The book talks about how Jobs was described by other people. He was said to have a RDF dedication. RDF stand for reality distortion field, a term from Star Trek, meaning Steve would bend reality to his will. This all just mea...
