(a) Feel most confident about my family’s happiness since we enjoy each other’s company. I feel this way since we all get along well.

  3. Hi Kevin,
    In Question 4 you say " I am happy so I have shown the happy face

    My life in 5 years will be a result of hard work

    My dream life would be for me to have enough time to spend most of my time at home, so i have shown an image of a home."

    Will you please say more about where you are in your life right now and what makes you feel the way you do about it? Please talk about where you are with your work, family, and personal life and describe why this generates a happy feeling?

    In 5-10 years you mention you will see the 'result of hard work'. Why? What leads you to say this. What will your life look like in 5-10 years? Describe what you envision, what's different and why this is important to you?

    You say in your dream life you would spend most of your time at home? Why is this? What would you be doing at home. Who else would be there and what would they be doing? How would this dream life be different from your current life? Would you live in the same place you do now? What would you do? How would you spend your time?

    Choose 3 Google Images:
    a. The first reflecting how you feel about your life right now. Upload the image, describe why you chose it and why you feel that way?

    I picked a picture of a man and a women sitting in a pool engaged in a leisurely discussion. This is how I feel right now since I have accomplished a lot in my life and I am very happy with where I am.


    b. The second reflecting what you hope your life will look like in 5-10 years? Describe what you envision, what’s different and why this is important to you?

    in 5-10 years I would like to be walking on the beach every day. This is my vision since I would like to live at the beach. What is different is that I have time to go every day and not worry about work



    c. Now, imagine your dream life, where everything that you want/is important to you comes true. Describe how this dream life would be different from your current? Where would you live? What would you do? How would you spend your time? Upload an image (or more if you’d like!) to bring this to life.

    See photo and description above for part (b). What is different is that I am not working.

  7. 1. For this blog, you will reflect on your impressions & experience with SimpliSafe. Even if you feel you know the company well, please go to the website at http://simplisafe.com, check-out the attachment & watch this ad https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CjTQGScvrLM&feature=youtu.be so you have a strong sense of what the company is about & how you feel about it.
    a) How would you describe what SimpliSafe offers in just a sentence or two?

    A comprehensive home security solution that is lower cost and a project you can do yourself in an hour.


    b) Is their approach different from other home security companies? If so, in what way/s? Is this important to you or not - why?

    Yes. It is different since you can install it yourself. This Is not important to me since I would rather pay someone to do work that will impact the look of my house. Any time that I do anything that impacts the look of my house I like to hire someone that is meticulous and will do the job in terms of spending the needed time to make the system look right in the context of the appearance of my house and work properly.

    c) What do you think the founders of SimpliSafe wanted to accomplish? Name 3 things you think they value & why? How do you feel about this?

    A cost effective, completely reliable system that is different than the competition that a burglar can’t defeat by cutting the phone line.

    2. Just like people, each brand has a “personality” – a look, tone and way of communicating that makes you feel a certain way.

    a) Based on what you see, what are 3 words you’d use to describe the “personality” of SimpliSafe? Do you find this appealing or not – why?

    The desktop alarm makes me think of the Google desktop assistant or the Amazon Alexa.

    3 words to describe: different, innovative, intrusive (since it sits on a table)

    b) Imagine that SimpliSafe came to life as a person. Describe what you envision, including work, hobbies, where/who he/she lives with, style & behavior. Then, upload a picture that depicts him/her & explain why you chose it?

    Forrest Gump – different. Fighting for acceptance. (yeah, I really mean this). Do you still need a picture?




    c) What other brands (in any category outside of home security) have a similar personality that you can imagine the SimpliSafe person “hanging out” with?

    None. I look at home security as a commodity like electricity because you expect to be always on and working properly.

  8. 4. Choose an image from the Internet of the person/home who you think is most likely to use SimpliSafe - explain why? How is this person different from the people who choose other home security brands? Do you relate more to the SimpliSafe user or another brand user (from Blog #3) – why?

    Image: a new young family that has 1-2 kids that is staring out that needs to save money. They use it because they need to save money and get a system installed quick.


    5. Are there any other products or services SimpliSafe doesn’t offer that you wish existed to help protect your home? Do you feel SimpliSafe could provide these things in the future? Do these things “fit” with SimpliSafe, in your opinion?

    No.



    6. Finally, based on your SimpliSafe impressions & experience with this blog, create an ad that would convince someone like yourself to buy SimpliSafe. Feel free to use a combo of words, images & even your own drawings.

    “Starting out in your first home. Need to save money and get a system installed quickly. Try simply safe. You will have same day security and save money in the process”
