Getting Kids to eat their Veggies

It is sometimes very difficult to get kids to eat their vegetables and other healthy food. We plan to create a spray bottle that is appealing to kids and promises to make food taste better. It may have their favorite cartoon character on the outside to make it appealing. Inside the bottle is a healthy concoction of olive oil and vinegar. Kids will be under the placebo effect, thinking their broccoli now tastes better and is approved by their favorite cartoon character. Mother's will be pleased that their kids are eating their veggies and getting added omega-3, and essential fatty acid (from the olive oil).

Online PA

Calendars are hard to keep. Using our online personal assistant you can enter all of your dates, obligations and meetings and we will send you messages by text to remind you about your commitments. The thing that would differentiate us from google calendar would be our personal connection with our constomers. We would recomend restaurants in your local area, and send reviews of your favorite movies. This attempt to connect with our costumer base will make us stand out.

The Unforgettable Machine

How often does one walk down the street and remember something that they had to do but don't have a pen to write it down? With our unforgettable machine, we offer a tiny device that could be carried around at all time that both records your voice and typing and with a push of a button will remind you exactly what it was you forgot.

Automatic Front Door Key

An automatic front door key. What if you could open the front door to your house with a click of a button? With the automatic front door key you no longer have to fumble with your keys when you have your arms full of groceries. It saves you time and frees you from hassel. It is also a safety measure. You wont have to rumage in the dark, trying to find the right key, you simply dress the automatic button which corresponds with your front door, and it unlocks. Each key is customized to only unlock your front door, similar to a car key.

More Ideas

4) Actor's Audition Website. A website for out of work performers. They can design their own profile's with resume's, headshots and performance characteristics. They would post their audition tapes and solo performances on this website for agents and directors to find. There would be a search option where you can type in criteria for a performer (ex. 5'8, male, blue eyes, etc.) and find them instantly.

A few ideas and why they would be good...

1) Filtra. There is a growing national trend that being environmentally friendly is "cool" and "hip." With that in mind, Americans still use over 10billion water bottles a year. This is not only bad because making the plastic uses a lot of oil, releasing carbon dioxide into the atmosphere but if it isn't disposed of correctly, it is a waste of plastic. They are also proven to be bad for peoples health. The alternative, the tap, is also at times unsanitary, unhealthy, warm or bad tasting. For these reasons, we intend to create a environmentally friendly water bottle with a built in water filter. This provides the consumer with crisp, fresh water wherever there is a tap.

2) Bowling on UES. The Upper East Side of Manhattan is a major hub for teens and adults as there are many schools, business yet is also a residential neighborhood. Living on the Upper East Side myself, there are times when I felt a tad bored because there wasn't much entertainment. Placing a bowling alley strategically on the Upper East Side can attract people of all ages and would make a lot of money.

3) People advertising. A completely unique way to advertise with athletes. As atheletes participate in their respective sport, there are many times when they are just hanging out with their skin exposed. What if we were able to superimpose an image of a company "tattooed" on the athlete as they are resting in their game. E.g. Michael Phelps, the winner of 8 gold medals at the 2008 summer olympics, spent a lot of time with his shirt off by the pool. As most people in the olympics watch the actual events as opposed to the commercials, what if for five seconds before Phelps jumed into the pool, we superimposed the word "Speedo" on him. That would have direct advertising that everyone would watch.
