Save the world, Provide a Free Service and Help the Homeless. My project combines some really important services and its pretty cool as well. I want to create a FREE WIFI Service/Advertising Network with a difference. My vision is to create mobile and static Wifi hotspots around the CBD that offer daily deals on food and drink near by that people can log on and use for free. How my idea is differe
nt... This WIFI network will also offer daily location based deals and promotions from supporting companies which would be an "opt in" basis. This will also cut down on the use of paper based flyers around the city which will in turn, stop littering and save the rain forest's/the world. The supporting companies would join on a subscription basis which will pay for WIFI services and help with the next key point to my project. Mobile HotSpots:
Sydney CBD locations are large and sometimes un-reachable by Static signals based on premises so I would like to, with the help of pre-screened & selected under 25's who are living on the streets of Sydney offer mobile HotSpots. The selected under 25's would be offered the opportunity to become a mobile HotSpot in Sydney CBD's busiest locations to help them off the streets, they will be provided with a uniform and a daily wage for helping us provide the service. We will also offer them support in finding accommodation and getting back on there feet. The bigger the network, the more people we help... I told you it was pretty cool! Project details:
Sydney based to start with and would like to roll out city by city through Australia Free WIFI network (in Sydney's busiest locations to start) Daily deals on food and drink direct to your device (phone/laptop/tablet) Environmentally friendly advertising (no paper based flyer's) Sent via Bluetooth and WIFI. Helping the homeless under 25's in Australia
My background:
I have been involved in Bluetooth/WIFI/Proximity marketing/advertising since 2005, I have key contacts in the highest ranked Bluetooth advertising company online and know the market and how it works inside out. I work here in Sydney's CBD and often see young homeless people that I wish I could help, people ignore them on a daily basis which has to be heartbreaking for them. I've been working on ideas for this project for the last 12 months, working out how I could continue to help people moving forward with only initial funding and this is it. This, with allot of work from myself would become self sufficient because the revenue gained by company subscriptions would fund the network, the wages for the mobile hotspots and as it grew the extra staff that would be required which in turn will help with unemployment in Australia. Every BIG idea starts with a small seed and this is where we are today. I would love to be able to help people on a range of levels:
Help the homeless by providing them jobs to get them on their feet
Help everyday people in offering them discount deals on food and drinks close by
Help companies have a direct route to market and help the community
Help reduce the use of paper based flyers and save our rain forest's.
