Develop TWO new product or service concepts that you would like to test among consumers to see if it is a good idea. MAKE SURE YOU ARE SOLVING A PROBLEM!
Let me reiterate. Make sure you are solving a REAL problem. The concepts that succeed usually fall into one of two camps: 1) Small, irritating and annoying ideas that happen frequently; or large, infrequent problems that have really bad consequences when they happen.
First, tell me what the problem is you are solving;
Second, tell me your solution idea (briefly -- no more than a sentence).
Third, write a Brand Positioning Statement for your new product or service idea;
Fourth, write it in Concept Form (use the correct format that we learned in class (EXAMPLES SHOWN BELOW)
