We are Boise State University Business students and for our Entrepreneurship class, we have to create a product that solves a problem. The problem we first thought of was nodding off while driving or while in class. The people we thought would be most impacted are you all! You’re on the road for days on end, driving through some of the most boring sections of road. Without giving away too much information, we’ve created a list of questions to help us determine if there is even a market for the product we have in mind.
1.What type of issues do you experience while on the road?
2.Do you get drowsy while driving?
3.What methods do you use to keep yourself awake?
4.Energy drinks, stopping and walking around, loud music, cold air, etc.
5.Are these methods effective?
6.If there was a product that would wake you up while driving, would you rather it does it manually (push button), automatically (senses when you are sleepy), or randomly (random intervals to keep you on your feet)?
7.Would a product like that interest you or are you set with the way you currently do things?
8.Do you have any suggestions or ideas you’ve thought of that you think would help keep you awake?
9.Would you be willing to pay $50-$100 for a product like this? Would you rather pay more or less?
Thanks you for any responses!
