23A- Your Venture's Unfair Advantage

Resources:

1) I already have contacts in both the Gainesville Police Department, UFPD, and Prince George's County Police Department in Maryland. 

VRIN: This is valuable because I will need the cooperation of various departments to make the program successful in the communities I serve. Rare because not too many people have contacts in police departments in various states. Not hard to copy by others if they network properly. Non-substitute because the self-defense courses would need to be taught by trained professionals.

2) The increase in human trafficking cases and abductions is causing more people to take action into their own hands. I would have the support of the general public. 

VRIN: Valuable resource because I need the support of the community to make the community day events a success. Rare because no one is currently doing any community  to combat these unfortunate events on the surface as far as personal safety. Others could copy this by gaining the support of the community first and having them back their program. Non-substitute because I need the support for the program to be implemented.

3) My mom is an event/meeting planner and can help coordinate the various events for the community day that would happen every 3 months. 

VRIN: Valuable because my mom knows how to coordinate events and what goes into planning a successful event. Rare because she is my mother and would help me over someone else. Able to be copied by others if they can find an event planner to be on their team of supporters. I am able to substitute this by keeping this venture strictly business and not working with family.

4) I have a lot of skills and qualities that set me apart from most people. I am hard-working, determined, and passionate. 

VRIN: valuable because my skills can help me be successful in my venture. not necessarily rare because all types of people have these same qualities. It is about how you use them to your advantage. Able to be copied by others because of the same reasons. Substitute because I may need to dive into other strengths for my venture to work out.

5) I have a team of supporters backing me in my ventures. 



6) Implementing this program in schools will create more jobs across the country

7) Support of county school boards
VRIN: Valuable because in order for the program to be implemented in schools, the board has to approve it.

8) Have financial supporters or people in my network who could be sponsors for the program and community events for the first year.
