Assignment 12

I spent the majority of half the day to find people that would benefit most from the hypothetical service I have to offer. The three people I interviewed consist of two students and an adult neighbor that works full time in a store nearby. The first person I interviewed lives on campus and told me the time she had to go to Infinity Hall for a meeting once. She could have taken the bus, but she believed it was not going to get her in the room on time. She resulted in taking an Uber because she felt the importance of the meeting was worth the price of the overpriced Uber. The other student I interviewed had to do some grocery shopping and had to walk all the way to Publix and carry the bags to his dorm room. He found no solution for the bus route would not have been efficient for him. My neighbor lives near his job. He lives very close and sometimes wishes to not have to take his car every time he needs to go to work. He isn't very affluent, so he sometimes walks to work if he finds the time.

From these three situations I was enlightened with, via the interviews, I found that the secondary option these people became dependent on were not very practical alternatives, even though they got the job done. Based on what I know about this segment, I can tell that the alternatives these people came up with were either hurting their bank account or their level of comfort.
