Actually, is it possible for you guys to share the second to last slide and just keep that on there? Yeah, just just to have something for me to look at. Alright, so I'm going to be kind of all over the place. I just jumped in from another meeting from a different world right into this world. So that's great though because that's kind of how people are gonna be right they're gonna look at whatever you're proposing and they're gonna have their own stuff and like your boss or whatever, and you're going to present it and hopefully get their buy in but I do want to say I like how like visual that was overall and that you guys use a lot of imagery and take us kind of through my favorite was the walkthrough of the shop that you guys had there. Just quick question like, did you guys create that for this project?
Yeah. Crystal and our team use some 3d software to model that.
That's, that's freaking awesome. Like, I think that was like for me, like one of the most like engaging parts of this presentation. At that point, you know, you kind of took me in to the presentation, and I was starting to imagine what this experience might be like. But then it lasted. It was short lived. It lasted very little. So that's like one bit of feedback. I'd like to give. I think, overall, what I write here somewhere I'd like to intro and then I wish your problem statement was a bit stronger. You lead with a very strong statistic about people being lonely. And then you jumped into this chocolate experience. And I myself like couldn't I got love chocolate too, by the way, but I couldn't connect that. Like I can imagine that this type of makes people happy. But I just wanted a stronger problem statement there and data. And you know, from me, again, Nicole, you know, enlighten me maybe sometimes because I come from like a very business oriented approach to UX design. So immediately, I was trying to make connections to other things in my life that I can like draw ideas from and I just couldn't help but think of escape rooms. You know, like you keep thinking about like this experience. And so like, instead of like solving a puzzle, we're creating chocolate like this is great. And so I would have liked to see what other ideas exist out there. And your deaths research that you would have, you did or you could have done to kind of like draw inspiration from these other ideas and how you're kind of building upon this puzzle with your expertise. And then the other thing I want to say is like, just from a business point of view, I think it's it's here to build brand awareness and loyalty, build, even customer connections. Somewhere in here, I think there was like a business point that he had made. And they made me think like, you know, is this scalable? Or how scalable scalable is this? And then I just started writing questions. He took me kinda in a rabbit hole, but like, it's like, okay, how, how different is it? Is this from Ben's past experience with what he did? And, and then, you know, I started to kind of put things together I was like, Alright, how could they have thought about scalability of this and address this in this research? You I felt like you took an approach of like how these shops or this shop that you saw that was like kind of broken down and lonely, and how it could be better and then, but I wonder if you could kind of do what Ben was doing and getting other chocolate tears to get involved to create these experiences, using the chocolates from these shops. And then now it's like you have this like Uber model, right? And you're still promoting these local shops, but you're promoting them at other people's locations. Again, I'm not here to come up with other ideas, but I just felt like overall I wanted I wish you had a little bit more research. I'm not sure if Nicole did say this is kind of the beginning of the class. I think I'm not sure if you had the opportunity. I don't want to jump the gun if you had the opportunity to do in person research or not, but I just wish there was a bit more research and then you just went like from the problems problem problem statement to a solution to your research, and then back to your proposition and what other research that you need to do to back up your proposition. So I'm just going to kind of stop there. I hope you have some questions for me that I can answer.
Eric, do you have anything you want to just add in there? Yeah, sure. And are already is it on yet or not? Yeah, nice comments. I felt very similarly in a few points. So I'll start with the likes. First, the the lock through the 3d modeling was very impressive. And also the booking platform. I thought that was really well done the UX it made a lot of sense, especially coming from the interactive design side. So between those in the storytelling aspect, I think it was Ben was walking through this personal connection he had and why this story came about that was really strong. So I would leave with that if I were you guys. The connection point about people being lonely. I also felt like that was out of place. So if your reasoning is like you want to create more experiences, because people are lonely, I think maybe just make it more clear that that's the connection point. Otherwise, you maybe don't even need it because I think what you're driving is like what we do at Netflix, we do this thing called you have to figure out the opportunity size to understand who the audience is how big of an impact you'll have. So if you're trying to assess people who would potentially use this type of service, then you could look at people who might go to similar types of experiences like a cold stone, or you could look at people who like to go to like those escape rooms. So I think if you're trying to assess how much value you're bringing that that is something more you can do rather than the amount of loneliness basically. So let's see, what else did I write? I think lastly, you mentioned your goals, that one of them was to build loyalty. So I would basically tried to understand how you're going to do that. So if those truly are your three goals, I would tie them closer to more how you would do them or make your goals about you don't need three goals unless that's part of the project but I would make it like this is our goal and first and foremost is creating these experiences that people will share that that could be you know So lastly, I guess I said one more thing. I wonder if you could look at you had a lot of different service offerings and a lot of them were like customizable, and very cool. But in terms of scaling this, they might not all be feasible so you could experiment with them and see which one people respond to best, and then be able to roll those ones out more to larger audiences. That's everything. Thank you.
Yeah, that was great. That was great and cool. Can I actually like jump back again? Eric, Eric inspired me. Yeah, no, I was just thinking like, because everybody's gonna continue this right, Nicole? This is not where it ends. Okay, maybe okay. I just thought like, from a problem standpoint, I would love to explore like if I was in your group, how experiences like bring people together. And how people like being together especially post COVID In this like experience, world experiencing more things. Like I've never been to escape rooms in my life. I've been to like eight times now. Maybe because I'm like seeking you know, experiences. So going back to like, scalability, what Eric said, Escape Rooms are not that scalable, like they spend a lot of money I know a friend that actually like makes them and so like what Ben did before taking these modular experiences to other people's workplaces and creating this experience there without even even people leaving like I'd love to do more research on on that like, first of all, like, how, what are people looking for in terms of experiences now in a post cold world? And then you know, how, how is that being? So what solutions exists out there for folks that are getting back into work environments and seeking experiences, but really can't because of all these COVID rules?
Yeah, yeah. Yeah. Thanks. Both of you. I hope that was that was that was I mean, I feel like that was really helpful for your team. That was the most constructive. I appreciate you both for just
like being very honest and constructive on this because he gave us a lot of actionable things that we can work on. I know, that sounds awesome. So please.
Yeah. All right, questions. Crystal. Can we just is it short, because I just want to make sure we stay with
I was just wondering if you guys felt like we were missing the like business side of like with like, like, expense or budgets or anything or like, you feel that was missing or is that not something we would address at this point?
Seven I think like I said, opportunity size is the biggest so if you can just in terms of numbers, just quantify how many people you estimate would actually be using this is the most valuable past that if the storytelling aspect, so if you can focus more on why you're doing this and that sentimental reason I think that's really important.
Thank you for your for stories. Cool, thank you. Thank you. Thank you. All right. Let's get them on.
