About
This is an app and site and brand that helps millennials stop saying the word "like." We both noticed that we don't know a single peer who can speak a full sentence or finish a thought without saying "like" at least once or twice...if not several times. The habit has gone on far too long and its unattractive in the professional world. Our idea is to develop an app, website and brand that gets people to stop saying that word so much. Users' incentives will be better public speaking and interview skills. The app will be similar to those push-up apps that count the number of pushups you've done. A user will tap the app to give themself a "demerit" every time they say "like." The app will keep track and show the user their improvement over time. The website will provide motivational sayings/suggestions (like brotips) that people can retweet or post on facebook. It will also have merchandise like posters, t-shirts, stickers etc. with those sayings/suggestions to keep the brand strong.
