Solving the Problem Assignment 8A

Solving the Problem
by Jenna Jaeger

My solution to this opportunity is to create a mouth guard that is formed to the person's mouth to wear after they place the whitening strips are. People can purchase a mold and mail in the mold to a certain facility that can custom make the guard. It'll look like Invisalign and be mailed back within a month. Then they can use it to cover the strips.

    Hey Jenna! I believe that this solution will greatly improve individuals who use whitening strips. I have used whitening strips before and strongly agree that it is difficult to keep in place. I love the idea of having a mold like an Invisalign that can be used monthly instead of having to pay thirty to forty dollar’s worth of whitening strips.

    I think that this is a great solution. It is practical and can definitely be done because companies like Invisalign do things similar to this all the time. I think it is also good that it has a similar form of something like Invisalign because it is a very well-known and trusted product around the country so people won't be so wary of your new product and will be quick to trust it as well.

    Hi Jenna!
    I believe your product proposal is incredibly effective when sold as a "Teeth Whitening Package" or even subscription service that caters specifically to each client's needs! I really like the idea of customization, and of guards molded individually that perfectly adjust with your teeth! I think it's pretty ingenious. I feel that it solves the slipping of whitening strips without compromising the formula or the costumer's enamel, good solution!

Halfway Reflection Assignment 14A

Halfway Reflection by Jenna Jaeger 1) I have read the assignments description on Monday so I knew I had enough time to complete the assignment before midnight Friday. I watch all the lectures in one sitting to make sure I retain all the information. I take notes while watching the lectures to keep myself engaged. 2) I felt like "giving up" when I had to conduct more interviews in a specific category. I interviewed anyone for the first two rounds of interviews, and I felt the stress of finding people high for that assignment. I got through it by talking to a friend and also brainstorming out loud. I think I am just as tenacious as before. This class is similar to one I took over the summer, so I am not surprised by anything yet. 3) I would tell the incoming class to make sure they give themselves the right kind of support. I would tell the incoming class to jot things down when they think of something related to the class. I would tell the incoming class to start an a...

Figuring out Buyer Behavior No. 1 Assignment 12A

Figuring out Buyer Behavior No. 1 by Jenna Jaeger My segment is businesswomen in Tampa. I conducted three phone interviews with my mom and two associates of hers. She works in a legal firm in downtown Tampa. All these women use whitening strips at home, and have experienced this need for something to hold them in place. After speaking to all three women, I deduced that they usually whiten their teeth once a week with the exception of right before an important event they are attending. They make sure to whiten their teeth before going to the dentist twice a year. They are conscious about their hygiene, and want a good report back from their dentist. They realize they have this problem during use of the whitening strips. They brought to my attention that they usually don't discuss this problem with their dentist, but rather their spouse while using the product. I asked if they were to ask the dentist, if they thought he/she would have anything to help with the problem. They re...

Testing the Hypothesis Assignment 7A

Testing the Hypothesis by Jenna Jaeger 1) I believe there is an opportunity for whitening strips. 2) People in the Unites States who use whitening strips have difficulty keeping the strips in place because of the material of the whitening strips. The who: People who use at home whitening strips The what: They are unable to keep the strips in the right place The why: Material of strips 3) Testing the hypothesis Testing the who: It could be individuals, dentists, and whitening brands. Testing the what: Are all whitening strips made of the same material? Are all brands offering the same type of whitening methods? Testing the why: Is it just the material? Do the strips move because of contact with the mouth? Is it the foaming and bubbles that are causing the shifting of the strips? 4) Interviews (what i didn't know before about the opportunity) Interview 1: They did not have trouble with keeping them in place. Interview 2: A certain technique is used to put ...
