Hypothesis Solution
Consumers are frustrated with uncertainty/inability in securing a seat/table within coffee shops when in need
Website/mobile app that allows consumers to reserve seats within coffee shops in advance.

What we learned on Day 2Hypothesis Reality

Unknown
Coffee shops would be interested in solutions that can better monetize “squatters”
Coffee shops generate the lion’s share of their profit from to-go/walk-in only, so do not worry about revenue opportunity cost from squatters.
Day 2 Pivot
Hypothesis Solution
Consumers are frustrated with uncertainty/inability in securing a seat/table within coffee shops when in need.
Create a marketplace for transacting/securing coffee shop tables/seats in real-time.
Consumers are willing to pay for ability to get a seat on demand.
Bid-system will determine market value of the seat based on the specific circumstances.
Consumers are willing to pay other consumers for their seat.
Bid-system will be consumer-to-consumer.
Consumer-to-consumer bid system for tables in coffee shops

What we learned on Day 3
Hypothesis Reality
Consumers are frustrated with uncertainty/inability in securing a seat/table within coffee shops when in need.
Problem was not as significant as originally thought (primarily weekends and small, popular shops).
Consumers are willing to pay for ability to get a seat on demand.
Not universal. WTP lower than expected (<$5.00).
Consumers are willing to pay other consumers for their seat.
Cultural barriers to concept of paying someone for their seat.

Day 4 Pivot
Hypothesis Solution
Coffee shops do not truly fill the needs of office-less professionals
Office-less professionals can purchase a membership that entitles them to unlimited wi-fi, coffee/snacks, soundproof phone booths
Ambience, decor and community are highly desirable factors in choosing a remote workspace
Keep the to-go customers, create a space for non-members so that coffee shop feel is retained, but work space is amplified
Create a brick and mortar shop that addresses the office-less professionals’ need for coffee shop ambiance with workspace amenities
ThirdSpaceThirdSpace is where your local coffee shop meets the shared
workplace.
ThirdSpace wants people to feel welcome to just pop-in or, better yet, stay the entire day. It’s a new coffee shop specifically tailored to people seeking an efficient “third space” to host a meeting, to get work done, to surf the web, to meet new people, or to just get outside of the home/office.
ThirdSpace does not reinvent the local coffee shop. It re-presents the beloved coffee shop culture to keep it fresh and energized, human yet relevant.
Coffee shops beautifully designed to keep you inspired, creative, and most of all productive
