19A – Idea Napkin No. 2


1)    You. 
a.     I am a UF senior student in an information system major. My talents are good at geographically and navigation-related things. I can do simple Java and Tableau.  Also: My aspiration is financial independence. So far, I think this business probably is my first-time start-up business, and my first pot of gold will be earned from this business.
2)    What are you offering to customers? 
a.     Again, I am offering my customers multiple aftermarket solutions for solving the electric sedan trip rang problem.
3)    Who are you offering it to? 
a.     So far, electric sedan and SUV are growing fast. For example, Tesla is one of the successful examples in the industry. Also, Tesla builds 1,191 Supercharger stations, with 9,184 Superchargers global wide. However, there is only one station in Gainesville with 10 Superchargers. The balance of demand and supply is not right. We are here to help these electric sedan owners in Alachua to reduce their charging times.
4)    Why do they care?
a.     Image when a hurricane heads to Alachua county, would you like to drive an electronic sedan or an extended range electronic car with diesel generator from FL to GA and all the way to the other safe states. I will choose the second one.
5)    What are your core competencies?
a.     “As of January 2017, sales of the Prius liftback totaled over 1.8 million units in Japan and 1.75 million in the United States, and ranked as the all-time best-selling hybrid car in both countries” Toyota Prius – Wikipedia
b.     Prius is a hybrid which is close to extending range style by a diesel generator. And it’s sales the record also proved the potential market.

  1. Hi Don,
    I have really enjoyed following the development of your aftermarket long range electric charging solution. The first thing that stood out to me was part 4 of your post. In the case of emergency, no one wants to be stuck by the bounds of having to wait hours for their cars to charge. I think having some sort of combustion engine for emergency use would definitely be beneficial in the market for electric vehicles.

  2. Hello Don,
    I really enjoyed getting a chance to read about your market for electric charging solution. I agree with that there needs to be more charging stations for all car models. I think it is very cool and beneficial that the car industry is moving towards an electric fuel grade. By relying on electricity, it can reduce grenn house gases and help the environment overall.
