We must use hardware to make our device work. We must have a good CPU and a device with a fair amount of memory. We will use the CPU as a receiver to receive messages from the main cable box. It will send our device message which will sound it of or give the consumer the exact location.
We can use USB ports to plug our remote in and transfer new information as we upgrade our system. We must have a significant amount of memory so our device can function at fast speeds so there is no lag time between when the page button is pressed and when the system activates.
Computer forensics do not play a big role in our product because no one will put valuable information on their remote control. However, if one watches controversial material on TV, they might want to product what they are doing.

    As a new business, we must ensure our company privacy as well as a good reputation. We must monitor our privacy setting as we use social media to expand our business. We cannot jeopardize our reputation however, which is why we will monitor google searches as well as forums where people will talk about our product.
   We will use excel to chart our monetary expenses, as well as profits, dividends and other key financial areas. Excel is crucial in the workplace and our company will be no exception. We also must use this tool to see where our revenue is coming from and what we can do to improve our product financially.
  Excel also enables us to make graphs and calculate scenarios if we expanded our product or if we moved to a different geographical location. These tools will help our product be the very best and give us a huge edge on the competition.

Have you ever lost your remote under the couch or in another difficult spot and spent hours looking for it? The remote control pager is a product that will send a signal to your remote which will make it beep to tell you where it is. Personally, i have lost the remote so many times and always wondered why there is no remote pager like there is on a telephone, well now there is. 
We will use social media to market the product. Facebook ads and promotions will help people know that they can use this service to their remote with their cable provider. People who post about our product will also inform the community and we will have a page for our product which facebook users can "like."
We will use twitter to get the topic trending and send it to people and companies who are influential. We will use this strategy because these people and companies will tweet about our product which will raise awareness to people that are on twitter. "Word of mouth" will get around and our product will be trending and people will find out about it in a matter of hours.
