Next Thing: The next thing my customers would want would be perks for using the app, such as coupons to local places and discounts. Customers also like to have feedback from using apps, so they would also want some type of edge or reward feature for using the app.
This reward and perks service would foster customer loyalty and reward active users. By doing this more customers will be willing to use the app and keep using the same app.
Since my concept is an unique app idea and is not a particular type of product, I will chose the a product from Amazon that is relatable to the industry but I can not promise it will compliment my existing business concept.
The product I chose is relatable to my fresh produce app concept. The product is a set of reusable bags specifically designed to hold fruit and vegetables. They are also designed for storage and can easily be washed and reused. They allow customers to be environmental friendly by saving plastic bags, while getting superior produce storing abilities.
The customers love the quality of the mesh the bags are made and love how easily they wash. They can be machine washed and customers love that. Customers also mentioned how they love the draw strings on the top of the bags. They are very secure and stay closed once locked down. The size of the bags also allowed customers to fit a good amount of fruit in them.
Some customers mentioned that the bags were actually not made with quality fabrics and complain that they tore easily. One customer even mentioned how the produce she kept in the bag went bad faster than the traditional plastic bags.
If I could change this product I would suggest making one big mesh bag with several different compartments so the customer would not have to carry around so many bags. The multiple compartments would allow for the separation of different produce while also making it easier to carry.
This product would not necessarily make a good addition to my app idea but I think reusable bags are a great idea and it is important for consumers to be environmental friendly as much as they can.

Hi Thomas
ReplyDeleteThe idea of an app that connects fresh produce suppliers with potential buyers is remarkably innovative.I think you have a really cool concept and I can't wait to see it come to fruition. I also think that the reusable bags are a great solution for people who are trying to be more eco friendly.

Hey Thomas, I love the idea of reconnecting people to their food sources, especially if they are fresh food sources. Finding good food is becoming more and more inconvenient and difficult, so an app that makes that process more user-friendly is absolutely an innovation. As for your revenue driver, it looks like it would be very effective, although I despise seeing advertisements everywhere, so it would have to be executed well.
