I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The And I- Oopsie is a revolutionary product that removes dents from metal water
bottles. It uses suction technology very similar to car dent removers, but on a much
smaller scale. We will be selling replacement suction cups for the And I- Oopsie as well. It
would solve the huge problem faced by owners of metal water bottles, which is: dents!

IV. SOLUTIONS
The And I Oopsie solves the aforementioned three main problems by:
1. Strong suction technology that when applied directly to the dent, and pulled, will
2. By using suction rather than adhesives or magnets, the bottle will not be damaged

The main competitors would be indirect. Solving the problem at home may be a large
substitute, but also the silicone bumpers that are made to protect the bottom of your
bottle from denting. The target market could include about 36 million users, this based
on the sales statistics of hydroflasks. We would anticipate that each customer would only
buy one of our products, however we will also sell replacement suction cups for the And
Our main competitive advantage is that the And I- Oopsie is the only product of its time
on the market today. No other product is able to physically remove the dents in metal
water bottles. There are preventative products, but why prevent an easily solved
The costs associated with the product are production and manufacturing, labor,
materials, administrative, and marketing and sales. The And I- Oopsie will be sold for $20
per unit. We have no direct competitors, but the preventative boots can be found for less
than $10. Our product is worth more because it can be used more than once on any
hydro flask and you can still have your hydro flask without a boot in order to keep the
desired aesthetic. I think our heaviest sales months will be in the summer and around
christmas time, because these are when hydro flasks are most likely to be purchased. We
do not expect repeat buyers like I said, because the And I- Oopsie can be reused, however
there may be some repeat buyers if they lose one, or would like to order replacement

sales and social media following as well as my social media statistics with my indirect
XI. CONCLUSION

And I- Oopsie will immediately remove unsightly dents from anyone’s metal water
