Goat Parties - 18A

1) My selected opportunity has to do with people going out to mid town and losing their wallets or forcing all the guys to carry everything. Party like a goat and forget having to worry about where your wallet, money, credit card, and ID are.

2) The first solution to this problem I came up with is an app. This app would have your driver's license (approved and certified), a scan way to pay for cover and drinks (possibly even paying cover before you arrive), a way to show how long the wait is at places and how busy it is, and much more.

The second solution takes advantage of one part of this opportunity, the cash. When we go out, we often have to go get cash out before we go to the bars or clubs. This is just annoying. So a solution is a group that sits around mid and downtown that has cash and when you need cover you just venmo or cashapp the company and they give you cash.

  1. I like your idea, and I would use it. I remember one time I was in downtown Fort Lauderdale and while I was giving the bathroom made guy a tip my license slipped out of my pocket without me noticing, and I lost it. Another time I didn't have cash to pay one of the cover fees which was uncomfortable, your solution would be well received.

  2. I think this is a great idea, but i would be careful with making sure you are not copying or infringing on another businesses copyrights or trademarks. For example, in Miami they already have an app where you can pre-pay for events and reserve a table with alcohol already. It helps clubs and bars make sure they are filled before hand so you get better pricing. Also, if bars and clubs just used apple pay, your idea would basically become obsolete and useless. Mostly what I am saying is that its a very easy idea to copy and get used by a bigger company who already has the existing technology. Maybe if you could think of what your competitive advantage is, you could refine the idea.
