Idea Napkin No 1

1) Hello! I am Austin Ham a second year Finance major at the University of Florida. I believe I have strong interpersonal and leadership skills. As for technical ability, I am well versed much of the Microsoft program realm. I have been President of both my student body and the National Honors Society at my high school. I am also in a professional fraternity on campus. My aspirations are to be an independent financial consultant with my own firm and the ability to advise who I wish. My aspirations for my app, or entrepreneurial opportunity, are to get it implemented to benefit athletic UF students and to help them meet new people and have a great time,

2) I am offering an application to UF students to play pick up sports games across campus. The app would work on a day-to-day basis and serve to provide sports year-round since some intramural sports are only available during certain times of the year.

3) I am offering it to athletic UF students or anyone interested in playing pick-up sports on campus.

4) This solution will provide them with the ability to both have fun and meet new people. There are thousands of people who do not play a sport for UF but played sports in high school. This huge demographic will be very interested in this app, I believe.

5) This app is a relatively new idea and I have not heard of it in the past. It is essentially a social app for people to get together and play the sports they love. It promotes a healthy social and active lifestyle to help students meet each other and stay in shape.

I believe the aspects of my business idea fit together. The idea makes sense and there is a large demographic interested in it. The app would be essentially free but adds on the app would make revenue. The more popular the app the more successful of an entrepreneur I could be.

  1. Hey Austin! I really like your app idea! I completely agree that there is a huge demographic for it even for people who are not that athletic. I know I have friends who are always trying to get a volleyball game going. It would also be a great opportunity to meet new people and liven up the game since you are not playing with the same people.

  2. Hi Austin,

    Your app idea is great! I know friends who want to get involved and play sports but they are not always able to join this intramural sports that are offered. I think your app would help unite a lot of Gators and would allow the community of students that exists on this campus to do something that they love. I have not heard of an app idea like this before so I am sure that if you were to create it, it would generate a lot of interest. Good luck on your endeavors.

  3. Hi! I think this is an awesome idea! I used to play sports in high school but I haven't much recently because it is difficult to find people to play them with. I live off campus in an apartment complex so it'd be pretty cool if we could give a relative location so I could find people nearby to play sports with! I think this could be a huge success, especially here in Gainesville. Here is my link if you are interested http://anaksunamoon216.blogspot.com/2016/02/idea-napkin-no-1.html

  4. Hi Austin, I love that your idea is all about getting people moving. I'm a huge lover of sports. The idea of being able to check out when and where I could get involved on my time is definitely something I would be interested in. I would definitely consider branching out on this one because I think there are plenty of communities that would benefit. Great job!
