Pitch

I liked Amit's pitch for two reasons, firstly he had a solid idea which made meaning and secondly he got his point across clearly and effectively. I found his idea lucrative because it has been successful already and appeard promising as far as the future growth is concerned.

I chose Austin's business idea for a variety of reasons. First, Austin is a friend of mine and I know he is a very smart kid, so he had immediate credibility to me. I know that his dad is a very successful entrepreneur himself, and that he has been working on this product for a little while. It is not something completely new to him, so he has experience with it. I know that Mark Sanders (Austin's dad) has a ridiculous number of patents and has started many different companies. Also, Austin did a good job presenting the pitch.

i chose Amit because not only did i like his business idea it was already up and running and so far a successful venture.  i think that there is a very large market here and it can be broadened as the company expands.  i am curious to see what they do in the future and if picked what his group will come up with.    

I voted for people according to how well their idea was pitched and how feasible the idea was. The idea has to be good, period. The idea is the most important, and how well the idea is delivered is second. There were a few people that delivered their ideas effectively, but their ideas were unreasonable and unfeasible. I decided to vote for the person who delivered both to me effectively, a good pitch with a good idea. I voted for Jason because his idea was definitely feasible and he delivered his idea effectively.

I voted for Jason, the reason why I voted for him is because I think that his idea (although not the only one) is feasible. He presented well and was easy to understand. He was also friendly and seemed to know exactly what he wanted. It was clear to me that he had thought about the idea a lot and had solidified it into an actual product (at least on paper) that was capable of surviving.

I voted for Jason. I chose Jason because I felt he had a very strong idea. As a freshman it can be very overwhelming going to a new school for your first time and with registration and everything it gets confusing and hectic. If you had a service that completely took care of all you room needs it would be amazing. I felt he did a good job presenting energy wise, and I felt it was a very feasible idea. These weren't the only things I felt were strengths about his pitch but also that there is a rather large market for it.

For me I voted for the last presentation because they gave the most concrete information. They tied it to a real organization and honestly as an investor; I thought I could make the most money off of it. With a new company doing research on the user trends on the Internet, which is like gold. To think of all of the marketing firms or other industries that would want this information. You could charge a lot of money to corporations in order to get this information.

The following are the different aspects I looked at:

The reason i voted on the pitch i did was because i liked the idea. The person presenting the pitch went very early in the rotation which gave them a professional ethos or a sense of confidence. I picked up on this confidence right away and really liked the way they presented. The pitch seemed more energetic than most and couple that with an idea that i really liked was why i chose the pitch i did.
