    Why should anyone care?

    The craft beer boom is showing no signs of slowing down. A new report from the Brewers Association, the trade group of craft brewers, shows production volume is up 16% this year – and the number of craft breweries has increased by nearly 700 since the middle of 2014.
    The statistical confirmation of the continued consumer excitement about craft beer comes in tandem with a separate report from The Beer Institute and the National Beer Wholesalers Association that highlights the overall impact of beer on the national economy.
    “Industry growth is occurring in all regions and stemming from a mix of sources including various retail settings and a variety of unique brewery business models,” said Bart Watson, chief economist of the Brewers Association.
    “Beer is more than our nation’s favorite adult drink – it is a powerhouse in job creation, commercial activity, and tax revenue.” said Jim McGreevy, president, and CEO of the Beer Institute.

    Who will use your product?

    Purchasers of Craft Beers identify with brands that are independent and local. Individual identity is more fluid and flexible than ever before and consequently, values have become a more critical means for consumers to connect with brands. Demographic of Craft Beer consumers is mostly highly individualized and independent, America’s young adults have both the group-conscience to want to change the world for the better and the self-assuredness to believe they know how to do it.
    – Craft beer lovers that want to find the next hoppy discovery
    – Self-identify as ‘craft beer’ appreciators.
    – White-millennial people born between the early 1980s and early 2000s, but the App has an information feature that is design to break this pattern and diversify the consumer profile.
    – Sub-Urban Craft Beer drinkers reflect with a particular preference for local, environmentally sustainable products, and while these beverages may cost a little more, they’re affordable luxuries that reflect this generation’s idea of sophistication and education.

    ” It connects to hundreds of specialized ad networks using websites like Jampp.com this is crucial since iTunes store, App rankings, are based on install velocity. To rank high an App must generate a lot of installs in a short amount of time.
    ” The App incorporates a Built In-Virality. A viral mechanism into the core functionality of the app, so each user that enjoys the app can potentially attract a network of users. Meaning that the App is better and more engaging when users invite friends to use it.
    ” There is a secure budget for App promotions with introductory special bites to attract App first batch of users to test metrics and understand the real value of each user before continuing with more systematic campaigns. This is vital for the App success.
    ” It has tracking tools to measure what happens inside the App (what are people clicking and using), to improve App functionality and success

    1. What does your product do?
    My product deals with an online version of comic books and an interactive chat room with friends and other users who are interesting in discussing comics or sharing their own personal comic stories they’ve created. There is an option to become a member, which gives the user to a much bigger selection of online comic books, including great deals on appeal; clothes, kitchen goods, etc. There will also be parental control which allows parents to block posting and chatting and only reading really good comics, therefore their kids can enjoy the app and a good read.
    2. Why should anyone care?
    After doing some research and looking into different apps, there seems to not be an app made just for comic books fans who just want to chat away with their friends or random people all over the world. This also includes reading comics or creating your own and sharing them. Most Social Media apps, is about posting stuff; photos, videos, things you’re doing but what if we can have an app which only interacts with creativity using Comics?

    3. Who will use your product?
    Age group would have to be 18 and older, not all comics are for young kids that’s why there will be a parental control option just for kids to read. This app is for people who not only enjoy a good read but also who enjoy creating and having discussions about the latest trends when it comes to comics.

    4. What makes your product unique?
    The app is unique because the user will be able to create their own stories/ comics and their friends and a wide variety of people all over the world will be able to read or share them. This app gives people a chance to express their creative side.

    5. What customer problem does your product solve?
