Santa's perfect pitchJeremy Hanks analyzed Santa as an entrepreneur in his post called "Santa Claus: Worlds's Greatest Entrepreneur." I loved what he did so I crafted a venture-capital pitch for santa to illustrate the kind of deal that venture capitalists would fund in today's economic conditions.
1. Problem. Parents need a method to influence their non-compliant kids throughout the year. This is a universal problem beginning at approximately age three and continuing up to the teenage years.
2.Solution. Outsourced bribery via jolly old man who gives candy and toys to nice kids and lumps of coal to naughty ones.
3. Busniess Model. Revenue sharing with toy companies and candy companies, licensing image to retailers, and royalties from multiple movies, songs, and publications.
4. Underlying magic. Ability to deliver toys to all the kids around the world in one night, make reindeer fly with near zero-carbon footprint, enter homes through chimneys, know what every kid wants, and know whether every did has been naughty or nice. Zero support issues due to omniscience. Completely lead-free materials. Over fifty patents filed.
5.Marketing and Sales. Current SEO methods yield 15,700,000 hits in Google. Partnerships with toy manufacturers, candy companies, and retailers to increase Santa's brand awareness for mutual benefits. Deep inroads into western literature. Creation of long-lasting brand awareness by working with grandparents. You can trackmarket penetration in real time too.
6. Competition. Jessus or none, depending on your world view.
7. Team. ProvenCEO with hundreds of years of experience. In addition, all work for free with no stock options. North Pole productin facilities are also free.
8. Projections. Total addressable market of two billion children. Conservatively, 1% market share means twenty million children.
kinda deal even the most jaded venture capitalist would jump at. Merry Christmas!! for goodmy...a..kinda left of us time ago..
only b didnt really see that, cuz a told us she had to go away for the summer to..
um, to follow her dream of being an artist, but its not summer anymore
and she's still up there. And that's all she seems care about right now.
Everytime i see her, i tell myself, this time. im gonna tell her what i think..
This time, im gonna look her in the eye and say , either come or leave for good
and so there i was, just the other day, i was sitting across the table from her, looking her straight in the eye
And i didnt say any thing. i dont know why not, but i wish i had.
Cuz even if it didnt change anything, she'd know i felt. --
