Interviewing Customers No. 2

My opportunity definitely is accurate from what I can gather from my various interviews with all the subjects from the last assignment. After looking back at the first set of interviews that I have done, I found that many of my questions were quite narrow and seemed sort of pointless with a Greek-life population. I changed my focus to mostly non-Greek focused people with the notable exception to one as an outlier.

The questions I decided to tweak and ask were as follows: What places do you eat?, Do you eat a lot on campus or off campus?, Would you eat at a cheap steakhouse with good quality and why do you eat at the places that you do?

Looking back at the ten interviews that I have done, I must say that overall I feel more confident in the possibility of a possible venture succeeding. There is an obvious demand for it as well as interest to fill a void in the local dining market. When I started I felt that everything was not up to snuff in terms of my idea but seeing how people reacted, I feel it has a fair shot.

Three tips I would share with my fellow students for doing interviews is as follows: Listen to criticism, be kind to your interviewees and change your idea according to feedback.

Hi Michael, I can definitely tell that you found an unmet need when it comes to the food options. I completely agree with your three tips and how it is important to listen to criticism and to be open to changing your idea according to your feedback!
