Week 3-Excel

This week in class we discussed Social Media Privacy and Excel spreadsheets. Although Social Media Privacy is important, I think that the use of Excel spreadsheets is more helpful to my entrepreneurship idea than Social Media Privacy. Excel is a very useful program in any business and even for personal use. Not only can it organize any data such as prices, amounts, etc, but it can simplify or even completely eliminate one's calculations or formulas.

With my idea of the grocery app/website, Excel would be a completely necessary tool. Like I explained before, it would be able to organize any and every piece of data that came through an order being placed. Once programed, it can calculate prices, take sales/coupons into account, and factor in taxes. That of course would all take place on the business end of the app.

The customer, on the other hand, could use Excel via the app in a much simpler fashion. The user could create shopping lists, organize needs VS wants, and even incorporate friends' and family members' grocery lists. All in all, Excel would be a detrimental tool to the success of my idea.
