This includes tracking stress levels among employees, their overall welfare and whether they are feeling adequate in their job roles or not.

As an entrepreneur, one of the key things you will always look forward to is making sure that the space given to employees is adequate, and they are comfortable no matter where they are. 

During the lockdown, the Indian IT industry made employees “Work from Home” (WFH) as per the government’s mandate. As a result, about 90% of employees worked from home with 65% of them from homes in metros and rest 35%: Source ET(Click to read the full article)

The Solution

This will virtually erase any doubt you have about making sure employees are comfortable wherever they are. It would include specialized tracking features like monitoring mouse movement, eyeball movement, and how much they manage to complete in a given amount of time, on-screen time monitoring.

Even introducing features like tracking the movements through the help of the webcam, for instance, would help monitor the reaction time that an employee has to the workload they are given.

Through these different metrics, an employer would be able to assess whether a given the subject is following through with their deadlines or not.

All of this would be carried out with utmost safety, ensuring that neither party is using this information to their gainful advantage.

Tech Business Idea: Portable Sterilization Technology

Health Tech Ideaswithdc

In a world today where staying clean and sterilized has become a necessity, there are multiple areas where sanitation/sterilization is going unnoticed. One area that is still unexplored is the food universe. Food, like air and water, is a necessity.  

Consumer Problem/ Need:

When you are at a grocery store shopping for your essentials, there is no way to ensure that what you’re buying is safe and virus or germ-free and sterilization is done well. Especially with fresh fruit and vegetables.

Since fine particulate and contaminants are not immediately visible on these food items, making it difficult to gauge whether they are safe. 

This is a growing concern. Especially in light of recent controversies peaking up about people spitting on fresh produce, making it difficult for other consumers to access them.

Since most of these incidents happen discreetly it is difficult to continually maintain oversight for contaminants even at a store level.

So what, as entrepreneurs is the fix we can offer consumers who are seeking to know whether what they are paying for is free of any external spoil?

The Solution: Portable Sterilization Device.


UV Sterilization devices are currently popular in public space-related businesses. For instance, the airline industry actively uses them to disinfect their flights between spots.

uv-sterlization-fruits-and-vegies

The reason why they are preferred is that they have a very high-efficiency rate of killing germs. However, this is not limited to just businesses.

These devices have also found their way into domestic settings. Many of them are offered at a cheaper rate and with less equipment so they can be used to sanitize everything from the home to the devices present within a given facility.

What if a similar device can be used in the kitchen? This would be an easy-to-use, click of a button device that would be able to disinfect your fruits and veggies in a matter of minutes. So this way, you don’t have to resort to complicated, time-consuming processes like boiling your vegetables in order to disinfect the produce when you bring them from the store.

It would also, reduce the amount of you spent worrying about the quality of the produce: giving you control of the process so you know that what you have is 100% safe at all times.

Kent, the Indian-based purification-based company, carried a similar product in its portfolio earlier in its inception. However, it didn’t gain significant traction because the need for them was not as immediate as it is today.  

The Conclusion:

For an idea like this to work, it would have to be first perfected at the execution stage. The fundamental thing that needs to be first sorted out is the design. The device will have to be made handy and accessible. UV Sterilization devices have this image of being bulky and rather intimidating devices. These should be easy to use and require no additional element of intervention in their functioning.

The device would also need to be in an adequate price range. It should be affordable for everyone from the average household to even a small-scale business. With the right studies done to determine the exact price range would be, it would be wise to roll this out after striking a balance where the product is both profitable and useful to anybody who would require it.

While Kent has given us a start, we as entrepreneurs need to take it one level further: making a product that is not just innovative but also useful in a post-COVID-19 world when staying clean is not just optional anymore, but mandatory. 

Think about the possibilities!

Business Idea: A Modern Shoe Spa Whose Main Focus is Hygiene and Personalisation

Ideaswithdc Online Business Online Services

The world is increasingly becoming aware of a strong need for cleanliness. As the pandemic rages on, many industries and people alike are moving towards innovation in the sanitation spaces, looking for solutions that are both simple, workable, and efficient to execute.

Consumer Problem/Need:

Today, consumers are aware of the consequences of running businesses, homes, and other spaces with even the slightest contaminants. But there is one source that we are all aware that exists in our homes and that we use every day: Shoes.

Shoes are all the rage today. With even the emergence of a subculture surrounding them, sneakerheads are some of the most influential buyers present in the shoe consumer market today.

nike-shoes

It is our job as entrepreneurs to bridge the gap between this market and the evolving needs of the society within which they live. What’s the best way we can achieve this balance?

Business Solution:

Sanitation is an important conversation to have, especially in this day and age. Considering the passion that sneakerheads to maintain their shoes, how about a service that takes care of making sure that they are sanitized without sacrificing the quality of their materials?

Shoe Laundry could instantly put that worry to rest.

shoe-laundry

It would offer services that cover multiple factors apart for disinfecting, Colour touch-ups, basic servicing, Sole repairs, Lace & insole replacement that could keep the quality of the shoe intact without compromise.

This would also help shoe lovers especially sneakerheads pimp out their old shoes and give them a fresh look while making sure they are safe to use. This would effectively reduce the contamination risk without risking the fashion appeal of a pair of your best shoes.

By including bigger, recognizable brands like Nike who are known for their iconic styles, we can push the business further.

We can invite them to print their labels on freshly customized shoes, thereby giving each pair that walks through the service a personal endearing touch. This would immensely appeal to the demographic that identifies as sneakerheads, since building shoes from scratch and giving them a personal touch is very much part of the culture.

Conclusion:

Like any other business, at the end of the day, this boils down to marketing. The best way to bolster traction for a business like this is through creative marketing. One way this can be done is through inbound marketing: pitching the product effectively through portals like social media, and blog posts using the right metrics and tools.

The campaign would have to be visually appealing and attractive, while still being able to connect with the target audience immediately. This would help them establish an image in the market and help when they plan to expand their business. 
 
 Another issue with ideas in this realm is feasibility. Often ideas similar to these lack the strength to reach an execution level. This can be due to a multitude of reasons. Some of them include an inability to market it to the demographic in an appropriate and effective manner or a short-coming at the resource stage, which leads to an inability to operate on a bigger scale due to infrastructure problems while moving to a larger scale.

To fully excel, these brands will have to continue to innovate with their marketing techniques, as they are far away from saturation point. This gives them a massive arena to play in, as there are no known entry barriers to entering this market.

Which is why a large part of the plan will be to create awareness. Entrepreneurs need to educate their audience about the business with clarity, by curating the right information.

This will include putting a spotlight on issues that concern hygiene in this space, why it is necessary, and what the key benefits are of establishing a satisfactory shoe hygiene routine, especially with a raging pandemic.

The sky is the limit. But with the right tools, like aggressive marketing and good brand-building practices, this business can reach the execution stage quickly and effectively, with a good audience base backing their every move. It’s time for businesses to level up and carry the edge.

Think about how you can bring an edge to your existing business in a similar manner.

Mental Health Product | Mental Fitness in Fitness Trackers

Health Tech Ideaswithdc

It’s evident that devices that track your physical health, especially through Snap-On wrist devices are all the rage today. There is a growing concern about risks associated with the neglect of physical health and mental fitness.

Problem: Mental Fitness

Increasingly, people are taking a keen interest in putting in an effort into maintaining their physical health today more than ever.

Here is a article by WHO reflecting how crucial and needed it is to talk about Mental Fitness- Click Here

What are some of the parameters to consider while attempting mental health in this simple parameter?

Wrist devices often use tools like a pulse meter, for instance, to measure the heart rate of an individual, convert that to understand effectively how many calories they have burned in a session.

This gives users insight into their ability to handle workouts or endurance for short. This also allows them to make decisions on whether they should be pursuing more or less intense workouts depending on what the device accesses is their calorie burned out during one session.

However, currently, there are no such immediate metrics one can use to track their mental health with ease.

While some of these physical devices use parameters like Heart Rate Viability to assess stress levels, they are not an adequate representation or measurement of mental health.

Solution: Mental Fitness

Consider this: What if there were a device that could do the same thing, but be used as a tool to assess mental health in a similar manner?

This would allow the device to register any abnormalities and alert the user to pay more attention to these characteristics. This can be done through an elusive framework where a user’s compulsive patterns are registered and regimented with the help of AI.

While consistency is key while trying to pick up a new physical regimen that can often be a negative thing while trying to undo undesirable behavioral patterns.

For instance, if you are used to sleeping on the same side of the bed for years on end, and are attempting to undo this cycle of behavior, this handy device could alert you every time you pursued the behavior.

You would be surprised just by altering such simple daily life patterns your productivity can rise multiple folds.

It would lead to more conscious behavioral patterns and allow and individual to undo patterns that they are longing to cut off.

It could also alert the individual when they decide to pursue new, desirable patterns of behavior and encourage them to incentivize this behavior to make it a steady pattern.

Conclusion:

This device would make individuals more mindful of their practices and encourage them to experiment with their routine so that they can be more productive in their day to day life,

which is a common issue while trying to explore the length of your limitations.

It would encourage individuals to tweak their lifestyle in order to keep things interesting no matter what and increase their day to day productivity, not just on a monthly basis, but on an everyday basis.

As the world we live in becomes increasingly smaller and limited in scope, it’s important to keep a check on not just the physical levels at which we function, but also the mental levels to be healthier and productive individuals.
