Icebreaker for Windshields
Slide 1: It is very dangerous to drive with the wiendshield covered with ice and cleaning with usual ice scraper takes too much valuable time, and also the windshield can be accidentally scratched. Time at the morning is very precious. The procedure of ice cleaning is considered to be annoying, also it needs quite big amount of time. Fortunately, there are other options. Our company ‘’Ice Braker’’ provides a new solution for this everyday problem.
Slide 2: When you drive in winter weather conditions you have to be very careful and attentive. Before driving, the windshield of the car should be cleaned from snow and ice, because they worsen visibility and pose a threat to your safety and the safety of your passengers. Ice Braker is a completely new device for ice cleaning. It is a special windshield wiper that is equipped with the ice scraper. As we know, standard procedure takes a lot of time, but Ice Braker significantle reduce the time losses and allows the driver to stay inside the car. As a result, the driver needs less time to start moving and he can stay inside during severe weather conditions.
Slide 3: We have created the product sell / marketing sheet as the collateral material, as you can see on the slide. According to our calculations, materials would take $1333 per month, labor expenses compose $666 and special parts as two windshield need $1666. To sum up, overall month expenses are $3665. It is not a huge amount for a developing business, from my point of view.
