Assignment 8A- Solving The Problem

My selected opportunity involves the desire for college students to save and budget their finances efficiently. However, this can become a hassle when one tries to overcome the obstacles presented for a college student. I understand that there are numerous websites, books, and apps that provide financial advice for various individuals. Therefore, I understand that if I focus my product/service around the themes mentioned above, it would have to be significantly different or better than the other products in the same category. Furthermore, my focus is on the visibility of this financial information to a college student on a daily basis. My idea is to integrate some type of course or workshop into the student's curriculum which will be a mandatory requirement for all students. This course or workshop can be held once or twice a week and will dive into various tactics that can be implemented into one's lifestyle to help them manage their finances more efficiently. My idea places an emphasis on sending the information to the students and making it visible to them, not just providing the information for them.

    I think that your focus on the visibility of this financial information to college students is crucial. As you have stated, it can certainly be difficult to make this information truly visible to students.

    There may be certain programs/information already in place for students to help manage their finances more efficiently, but those programs/information aren't overly visible to students. Your ability to make this information visible will determine the success of this opportunity that you are attempting to exploit!
