The Evolution of the Portable Toilet

    My roommates and I always say how we wish we had a sink in our dorm room. It is always a pain to have to walk back and forth to the bathroom to either brush our teeth or spill something out. With this new product, this small contraption is space efficient and easy to use. Since dorm rooms are not conducive to rearranging, this portable sink does not need to be connected to any water source in order to work. It's that easy.
    At the beginning of this project, my idea was basically just a product instead of a business. By learning about all of the different things that go into building a business, i feel that my idea has grown tremendously. Throughout this process i learned about various technological advances that would really help my business thrive. Both the software and hardware chosen is very important when building a business. 
     Social media is one huge outlet that would help my business succeed. I can publicize my product on Facebook and twitter, which would help me target the specific audience i need. For competing businesses, these days its extremely important to stay up to date with the various social media sites. Social media sites are not only for connecting with consumers but also for updating them with new products as well as show pictures and create a conversation about your brand. 
     One thing that is very important that i did not know before is that when picking hardware you need to  buy the top of the line CPU since it is the part of the computer that controls the overall computing power and manages most of the computer operations. Another part that is essential is the ALU. This part of the processor performs the arithmetic functions of the business. This is extremely important when processing transactions. 
     Whenever building a business it is really important to know whose out there and who has a similar product that can potentially hurt your business. In doing the research for this, i noticed that there were similar products but we both had different target audiences. In comparing both of our ideas, i also learned a lot of things that could help mine prosper. Also i learned through this that specific software can help simplify things, such as photoshop. Photoshop is important when creating a logo as well as for editing pictures.
