1) The IDEA
An app that promotes fiscal responsibility by notifying the user before they purchase items while in a store or restaurant. Also letting users crowd-source the cheapest meals/deals while in said location. Once you leave the store the app notifies you of how much money you saved. IE; Great job Sarah you saved 20 bucks by not buying those appetizers!
2) The PROBLEM
We all know the majority of society has an issue with saving money and instant gratification or "keeping up with the joneses". The vast majority comes from impulse buying with credit cards.
3) The SOLUTION
With this app you could set a budget for the store, sync it to your credit card or "google pay account" and get notified whether your purchase was in line with your budget.
4) The RESULT
Consumers save money and you help alot of them become more fiscally responsible
5) The MARKET
Any capitalist country with a middle class
6) The FASTLANE model
Offer a subscription service allowing users to crowd source cheapest meals at restaurants or better options at the grocery store. Or demonstrate how much money users save by purchasing the app for 1-5 dollars. "Don't buy that! managed to help me save 1200 dollars this year! For only 5 bucks!"
7) The BUSINESS model
Computer system
8) The EXECUTION challenges
Getting access to company databases of items and menu options. This will prove tricky especially as it may be cutting into their bottom line lol. getting users to pay for the app. I initially thought the location data would be hard but google literally knows when your in a store now and lists out deals. My mind was blown.
9) The BRAND idea
Got Buyers remorse? Let us help you stop it at the source!
Don't buy that!
10) The EXIT strategy
Continue to live off passive income from the app or Sell it to one of the many Fintech services out there like Intuit or Credit Karma.
