Final Reflection

      This has been an unusual class experience indeed, one I knew little about before signing up for the class last day of drop add after being recommended by a faculty staff at the business school. I believe the most formative experience has been approaching people, trying to convince them take a moment from their busy lives to give you a little help. That was something I was reluctant to do, grew more confident as time passed by and feel very good about going forward because I understand it’s an quality to have in the world of entrepreneurship. The most fun moment was trying to give away dollar bills and the looks in people’s faces; I did disclose the reason of what I was doing after I had gotten their reaction so their reaction to the class exercise was also priceless. I do surely believe this class has had an impact in the our entrepreneurial mindset as well in the sense that it has made us more aware of the ins and outs and the challenges that come with it. For the future students I recommend to put themselves out there and find the courage to try, that’s the only hard part, everything that follows is nothing short of exciting and rewarding.

Week 15 Reading Reflection

This was a very refreshing read and probably one of most entertaining to read. I loved the humbleness with which the author describes everything and why and how it worked despite the fact that with huge success gain one might expect people to lose modestly. Scaling up customer loyalty is a phrase I had not heard of before and just they went about achieving that by trying to understand their customers very culture is quite incredible. This was an inspiring lesson to those who are intimidated about thinking big or are afraid their concept will never scale up, if you apply few basic concepts about how scale can be achieved and what they benefits and costs are, there is nothing to fear!
