NewJen Tints:

LED headlights have become common on most-of, if not all motorized vehicles. However, they have a severe downside, contributing to 12%-15% of all car crashes. NewJen Tints aims to create a viable, detailed product aimed to resolve this issue; a window tint that dissipates harsh, blue LED light from car headlights. With our sustainable business model, we aim to decrease the amount of car crashes, one car at a time.

NurseLink business

Imagine a place where clinics, long-term care facilities, and hospitals never have to struggle with nurse shortages. NurseLink provides a platform connecting licensed nurses with healthcare facilities. We are solving the staffing gap by giving nurses the flexibility to choose jobs that fit into their schedule. While also ensuring healthcare facilities have the support they need. Through our app, facilities can post jobs, and certified RNS, CNAs, and LPNs can accept them immediately. We operate nationwide, and cater to clinics, long-term care centers, and hospitals. We ensure that patient care is never compromised. We bridge the gap anytime, anywhere, whether it’s last-minute coverage or long-term staffing needs. With NurseLink, healthcare needs can run smoother, reduce burnout in nurses, patients can receive quality care, and nurses can have more control.

Helping the elderly community with yard work

As people age, physical limitations or health issues can make it difficult for them to maintain their yards, which may lead to feelings of frustration, isolation, or even decline in mental and physical health.

The Effect of Storytelling on Business Success: How Connection Bridges the Gap Between Product and Consumer

Decades of research have been dedicated to discerning why some businesses are successful and others aren’t. Many analyses have been made, speeches given, and papers written, but the true path to success has eluded discovery while well-meaning pursuers of the answer are overwhelmed with sources of incomplete advice. I’ll be taking four years of business education and combining it with my passion for literature to propose that the missing link between a “by the book” business and true success is the element of story.

CC’s

CC’s is a profitable business that sells drinks and pastries. In addition, they offer Christian supplies that customers can read, talk about, etc. This cafe will be a safe environment for Christian college students to come and have study groups, read on their own, do homework, or just enjoy a meal. The location of this business will be close to college campuses, so college students who do not have transportation can walk. In addition, this cafe will support diversity, accepting others no matter who they are. Competitors such as: Perugino, Palace Coffee | Bakery, and Studio One Café will be addressed. Along with the starting cost that would range from $100,000 to $1 million.

Examining the Use of the Transfer Portal

The NCAA transfer portal has opened up many opportunities for collegiate athletes. However, due to NIL deals and other factors, the transfer portal has led to issues in Ethics, specifically where athletes’ morals and values lie within an athletic program. This tool has brought questions to the term “loyalty” among student-athletes. Issues include the increase of athletes entering the portal each year, coaches cannot create a culture if their players come and leave each year, coaches saving money for transfers rather than incoming freshmen, etc. Our solution to our ethical dilemma is implementing a new rule restricting undergraduate student-athletes from transferring until they fully complete two years at their current university. This solution gives them an opportunity to face their problems and try their best to work with the environment they are in. In addition, more money can be used for incoming freshmen rather than coaches saving money on transfers.

Final Research Project

We are intending to research the topic of sports betting and how it impacts the sports culture and regulations. Whether it is impacting the fans, players, or organizations, we want to understand the negative and positive outcomes such as sports marketing strategies and gambling addiction. There are many arguments for and against sports betting. Some say betting is unethical and corrupt, while others suggest sports betting can be beneficial to the sports industry. We decided to research this topic so we could gather information and decide if sports betting is ethical or if it should be discontinued based on the health and well-being of the sports society.

Examining MLB Player Value

The issue that we are looking at is how players are valued and the factors that go into the evaluations. Specifically in the sport of baseball. Mainly what we are looking at is how these crazy amounts of money are being determined for the value of the players. Also if the player is a bust and the teams still have to pay them how does that affect them.
