1.What your original goal was for this course.
My goal for this course was to gain understanding of the best practices for Business Venture Research. As I want to run and operate multiple business in my lifetime I want to learn how to evaluate perform proper steps in research and help me determine which risks are better than others. I currently have one business that I am starting but if I am trying to become a master at starting and operating business this is a crucial step in my journey.
2.How the goal was met by the course.
The information and the materials that I read and watched have made me danerous in my approach and I feel confident because I learned what types of research works best in different situations. Also what things we learned so much about business that failed and some of there downfalls while at the peak of their businesses. Zirtual is a company that is still around today but the founder didn’t have a proper money team and she lost everything over night. She laid over 400 people via email, she grew too quickly, and couldn’t sustain her current pace.
3.What you learned from this course. Mention at least 4 research resources you found useful.
I found the different research for different types of risk extremely useful then their is Primary Research, Secondary Research, Quantitative, and Qualitative are all great forms and provide different data research.
4.How you will apply the material learned in the course personally or professionally.
I have used all the information given in this course in the business start-up process and it is all verification for myself that I was looking for the right things and also have the right criteria for businesses that I was researching.
