Wysp is an online peer-to-peer marketplace that allows busy individuals, working parents, as well as retirees to outsource their to-do list to the local college community. The business plan provided here encompasses work over the past year in order to convey the business model to potential investors as well as professors. The Wysp idea is to provide local college students with flexible jobs where the student has the ability to choose their hours. On the other side of the business are the working families, professionals as well as retirees who need someone to help them with household duties such as grocery shopping, meal preparation, or transportation.
