• Who? Foreigners or non-locals • What? Locals are talking and using slang that
the people cannot understand • When? Anytime • Where? Out and about • Why? So that non-locals can understand the
slang used
Background Situation
Travellers, holidaymakers or people having moved to a new area do not understand the slang words or phrases used by locals, and can feel left out or embarrassed.
Problem
How can you understand what the slang that locals are using means?
Question
Our app, Slang It, will make it easy to look up slang words and phrases on the go, using an app rather than searching for the terms using the internet, which can cost a lot of money for people who have come from foreign countries.
Key Insight Statement
Our team, Colloquial, is developing a mobile app, Slang It, to help travellers, holidaymakers or non-locals who do not understand slang that is being used by locals to be able to understand it, with the use of a slang dictionary app, that has both a browse and a search option.
Mini Elevator Pitch
User Profiles
Doing some research into our users gave us useful information. We found out that our users would find the app helpful for when they do not understand slang being used, and this would help prevent embarrassing situations from occurring. They would want Slang It to be a simple app, with no unnecessary features so that it is quick and easy to navigate around and get what you want done.
The other slang dictionary apps on the market do not target Scottish slang specifically, and Scottish slang is the principal focus of our app.
Competitors
The core feature of our app is to help non-locals understand slang words and phrases used by locals.

Feasibility – Data, Content, Technical
Our app presents no technical challenges, as it does not require internet access and we are putting the content in ourselves.
Business Case
We have chosen the ‘Somebody Else Pays’ business model, and will use advertising to make money. We have chosen this model as we think more people will download this app if it is free.
Our three core marketing activities are: - Banner ads on apps or sites that travellers coming
to Scotland are likely to use, such as Trip Advisor - Social networking – Facebook page, Twitter etc,
and adverts on Facebook - Posters in train stations and airports
Marketing Strategy
App Design Mock-up
Using AppShed we have created a very simple version of our app, and two screenshots of it are shown above. One shows how the search option lets you find words in the app, and the other shows an example of the entry found by the search.
