Idea Napkin No. 2

My name is Isaac Valancy and I am from Pembroke Pines, Fl. I have a lot of attributes and talents that will help me run a business like the one I proposed including organization skills, prioritization and being able to lead a team. I aspire to one day control a business similar to the one I proposed. I want a utilitarian business that is designed to be helpful for the greater good and be beneficial to all parts of society. I know that if I were to be controller of a business like this that it will consume most of my time. I will be motivated to try to improve the business model to perfection and work countless hours until I do.

I am offering a service that will help prevent countless traffic jams that start for multiple reasons. There is traffic that occurs during rush hour but that is because there are too many people going to one location and those kinds of traffic jams are not the ones my company will being trying to prevent. The traffic I intend to try to prevent is traffic jams that are caused by other reasons like accidents, broken down cars and or flat tires. My company will have numerous “road warriors” on the roads at all time patrolling specified geographic areas. They will be on call at times and people will report these incidents on an app. For example, you are on your way to a certain obligation and suddenly you hit a traffic jam. It is Saturday so you did not expect a huge traffic jam. Then while the you are stuck in traffic, you report on an app that there is a traffic jam and my road warriors will then report to the traffic jam and see what is causing it. If it is a small fender-bender then my road warriors will safely and quickly clear the road and clear all debris to allow traffic through.

My service will be paid by adding a small fee to everyone’s car registration fee. I am offering this service to everyone in specified geographic locations that have traffic jams multiple times a day for numerous reasons. This service will be beneficial to people who drive and ride cars. It will save people time and gas money. It will also be very beneficial to the environment by reducing car emission from cars that just sit in traffic.

I feel that this company is unique and has competencies that set us apart from other companies. Triple A performs a similar service, but we would be much faster than Triple A is because my “road warriors” are constantly patrolling the roads waiting for the next call. My drivers will also be certified in first aid and will apply it if needed before an ambulance arrives.

I do feel one aspect of my business is sort of out-of-joint with others. I think the reporting on an app can be altered a little and maybe make it where the driver can either call a number or report it on an app. That was one of the feedback points I received and I think it is a good idea to maybe change that part. Another point I received was that making everyone pay the fee on top of a car registration fee would be difficult to put in place. I would first want to test the market and finance it with an initial investment to prove that the concept works. I feel after being able to prove the concept and prove its feasibility that I could make this a government affiliated company.
