product concepts Assignment

I watched shark tank season 15 episode 2 and the pitch i personally like the most is storm bag and this is because of how the product is used and how much easier it is to use than their competitors. The product is for natural emergencies like floods, They state the last thing you want to do to prepare is to shovel sand. This is because it takes a lot of back braking labor and they really are heavy. With storm bags you can build a fort to protect your home in a few minutes without having to shovel and work for it. All you have to do is add water to it and it goes from 1 pound to 30 in 3 minutes. This can be used my anyone regardless of their position. They made a case why a consumer should want it and i understand, i would not want to rush to start and shovel thousands of pounds of sand when i could just take out my storm bag and have it ready in 3 minutes without doing labor. You could also get it back to 1 pounds and can reuse it 3 times. One thing that had be in a debate is that kevin said he cant compete with sand bags because its free and i see what he means but i think he underestimates how many people would spend money on this especially since you can reuse it 3 times. This product could also be used to water your flowers while your gone on a trip or vacation, this was brought up by lori. Overall i think this product was a very Great idea.

    Hi Pasquale,

    I watched the same episode and picked the same pitch. I agree that the sandbags seem easy to use which I love and are also affordable so that’s a plus. Like they said, all you have to do is add water and in literally 3-5 minutes you have a whole 35 pound sandbag ready to be used for either your home or severe weather. I agree too about how Kevin stated it’s hard to compete with free but, these aren’t ordinary sandbags; They are reusable, and less hard labor. This product will definitely interest consumers because it’s so easy and affordable which to me personally is better than free.
