Packaging For Tomorrow

Unfolding The Future, inc., is a company that takes pride in transforming the way its products are used on day to day basis. Due to the lack of innovative ideas, the company has suffered a dramatic loss within the last two quarters. With innovation in mind, the packaging department of Unfold The Future, inc., has completed a new design for the sugar free mints due for market launch in April. The proposal is so ground-breaking that competing companies have yet to come up with such ideal design, thus making this proposal the most important opportunity for regaining the companys lost shares.
The new idea for packaging the sugar free mints lineup was to produce a package that was slim and unique at the same time. The general consumer looks for a mint product that could be carried around with them without taking much space in their pocket. With the (.44 oz) metal tin package, Unfold the Future, inc. will become one the first company to offer such a compact size. Additional materials like paper and plastic were suggested for packaging but they had far greater flaws compared to the metal tin. Paper is not a durable enough material to sustain too much abuse in pockets and purses while keeping its original box shape. At the same time, plastic doesnt offer the same kind of style and attraction the metal tin can achieve. The strong metal case can keep the mints safe in most inconvenient environments without altering the taste of the product and at the same time provides a stylish appeal to widespread customers. The second and equally important aspect of the proposed design is the uniqueness of how the package opens and closes. With the innovative slide on and slide off cap, the package is more convenient and stylish than the company has ever produced. A little slide of a thumb opens and closes the container and provides easy access to the mints. Each tin will contain sixty mini mints in the (.44 oz) container and maintain the same price as the (1.76 oz) packages. The compacts size and sugar-free concept in tradeoff will give the company an opportunity to sell less for more. The basic design will remain the same for all the sugar-free mints and the only thing that alters will be the color for various flavors. It is imperative to keep the colors identical to the non-sugar free products in order to keep the process more convenient for the consumers and the workers. The product is guaranteed to attract consumers attention on the store shelves due to the proposed packaging ideas provided. By accepting this design proposal, Unfold The Future inc., will be able to offer the same product as its competitor but market it with a packaging design to lead the future sales in the breath mint industry.

The following is a brief paper I wrote for my Economics class:

Under the direction of President George W. Bush, anti-trade and anti-business sentiment was on the rise. As the countrys economic problems have gotten worse, the pro-market theme has not so much become less as disappeared. The administration has been forced to swallow what remained of its commitment to market forces and deregulation with a $250bn bank recapitalization.

It seems safe to assume that US finance will change profoundly as this crisis works itself out, regardless of whom the country chooses as its next president in the upcoming election. Simply restoring the stringency of some earlier regime is not an option. Better regulation is needed, but history shows that designing it will be difficult. A new approach to financial regulation would hardly signify the end of American capitalism.

In the short term, the recession will shrink the tax base and worsen the excess of spending over revenues. The eventual bill for the current rescue package is likely to be less than $700bn, since some value will be recovered from the assets and equity that the Treasury acquires. American capitalism would surely retain its distinctive vitality, which springs from a zeal for competition, innovation, and sheer hard work that seems bred in the bone.

Does this seem OK?
It’s supposed to be one page, but it falls a little short. Is there a way I can expand this?

Our American History teacher is haveing us come up with an invention for class. It relates to the innovations of the Gilded age and how it sculpted that era. The invention should be something in our time period. And it can modify an already exsisiting product, or something totally new. It needs to be able to be made into a real thing, and I have to package it, and I have to advertise it also. Use your imagination.
