Pivots

Survey Questions: How do you charge your phone on the go? How often does your phone die while you’re out? Do you currently use a FitBit or step-tracking device? If yes, how many steps do you take in a day? How much did you pay for your last phone charger? On-the-go charger? What would you think about a step-powered charger?Survey method: EmailPeople Surveyed: Sent – 7, Responses – 4Results: Out of the five responders, four used an on-the-go charger and three used a FitBit/activity tracker. The four had paid an average of $22.00 for their chargers. The three paid an average of $110.00 for their activity trackers. Three thought that an on-the-go charger would be worth buying if they walked enough to make it worth while, while two thought that they would only purchase as an accessory.
