NAMING YOUR PRODUCT/SERVICE: INSTRUCTIONS • Naming your product or service is very important so think of a name that describes what the product does and also creates a lasting impression in the mind of anyone who hears it. e.g. The “Collapsi-Heel”- The name adequately describes what the product does and at the same time creates a fresh, funky name that people can identify with. You will notice that by shortening “Collapsible” into “Collapsi” and combining it with “Heels” we have created a catchy funky new word.
NAMING YOUR PRODUCT/ SERVICE: EXAMPLE • “The Collapsi-Heel: Convenience with a Click”
PRODUCT NAME AND TAGLINE PRODUCT NAME NAME TAGLINE
ABSTRACT: INSTRUCTIONS • WRITE A DESCRIPTION OF YOUR PRODUCT THAT MUST ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS: • What is its primary function and what need or problem does it solve? • How is it innovative? • How is it different from other existing product? ( if any ) • What are the key features? • How will it change the life of its users
ABSTRACT: EXAMPLE • The “Collapsi-Heel” is a ladies’ shoe that can transform from a high-heeled dress shoe into a more comfortable flat shoe. It solves the problem of women having to carry more than one pair of shoes to face different situations. It can be the fashionable high heeled shoe at the start of the party and then transforms into a comfortable option when its time to hit the dance floor. At the end of a day full of meetings, the professional woman can flick the switch and have a comfy flat shoe to walk home in. No woman will ever have to worry about carrying two pairs of shoes anymore as the Collapsi-Heel is the perfect solution!
