New Gas Cans with a Vent By: Chevus Turner

1.If any one out there has used these new styles of gas cans made by blitzusa.com you will find that there is no vent on the other end of the nozzle. The cans nozzles are suppose to be self venting but if you have used these you would no that is not the case. This might not be a big thing but for some the little things can drive them bonkers. These new style of cans were produced to control spills and such so the vent was removed so in case the can fell over there was no outside pressure to aid in the gasoline to spill out of the cans nozzle.

2.Surveys will be sent out to local hardware and automotive shops and also companies could show us their return list of gas cans. Also a mobile survey could go around finding people who use these cans and ask them what they think of them and how do they think they could be improved. Distributors would also be a very good way to know what they think of the product.

3.We know when screening the ideas of a vent we cannot use the old fashioned flip the caps up and pour we must go by the guidelines the government has issued so that spills are still eliminated. We know that these new vents must always vent but so that they do not allow liquids to seep out. Then brainstorming will start and ideas will be tested and prices will be compared.

4. The new vents will not have a high price to create except for a new machine on the assembly line to add the product to the existing gas cans. Sales will improve and returns will be minimal but we will be the only company to offer this there for people will be much happier that a past product was improved for ease.

5.Our prototype will be created and tested to the extreme from dropping 3 stories and being ran over to make sure that the product will do its job and not let a spill occur for any reason once this is past then new vents will be sent out to locals stores. Also it will be passed by the government for resale in the United States.

6. Once these new and improved gas cans are on the shelves we will have the store ask for the customers phone numbers and call them a week after they purchased our product and ask questions of what they thought of the new idea and how it worked for them and ease of use. Also we will then again ask for a return list on the product and compare it to the previous return list taken earlier.

7. If all has passed then we will begin marketing the product in stores, by taking all previous products and recycling them, and also by giving a simple commercial for people to know what they wanted was out to buy and make their days easier.
