Elevator Pitch No. 1

My opportunity is a device to attach to a steering wheel in a vehicle to locate emergency vehicle sounds coming within a 2 mile radius of the vehicle. This is a new solution compared to my initial thought as this will aid the hearing impaired (as well as others) driving. This device would then alert the driver by vibrating the wheel. This would be beneficial to hearing impaired drivers who may not detect the sound as quickly as others. It may also be helpful to other drivers; as nowadays many use their phones and other devices while driving. Being alert is important for anyone behind the wheel.  My product would have the name "Here Wheel."

  3. Hi Isabella,

    Your pitch for "here Wheel" was well organized and you made the presentation in a very professional manner. It is challenging to use a whiteboard while making a video, and you handled that in an excellent fashion. The objective of getting the customer interested in your product was certainly met.

  4. Hi Isabella,

    your idea is fantastic and something that I could definitely see being helpful to all drivers, not just the hearing impaired. Your pitch was very well organized and I like how you drew on the whiteboard to help create visuals for your audience. Overall, you did a great job and I think this idea is something that could really take off and one day be a staple in vehicle manufacturing.

  5. Hey Isabella, your elevator pitch was very good. "here wheel" is such a good idea for both those who are hearing impaired and those who are not. I liked that your visual was drawing on the white board behind you so your viewers could get a better idea. This is a product that will really help all individuals regardless of their hearing. You definitely met your objective in this video!. Great post.

  6. Very nice presentation Isabella. I think the here wheel is a fantastic idea and will catch on in no time. Including the personal information that you are hearing impaired definitely hooked me in the beginning and you sold me during the pitch. Good job and good luck.

  7. Hi Isabella - Great job on your elevator pitch! This is a great idea for those who are hearing impaired as well as those who are easily distracted while driving. I think it will also be beneficial to new drives. Great idea using the white board as a visual aid by the way! It helped me visual what the aid is going to look like.
