Creating Your Own Business is Just As Hard As it Sounds

It took Julian Capps nearly four years before he could launch his "brainchild." Beagle, as he coined it on a late night in Baltimore coding his future product, has officially launched and is spreading to college campuses across the east coast. Beagle is an application that is for college students who need help and need cash! His slogan is, "A friend in need is a friend in deed," and it applies directly to his product. Beagle is a way for students specifically with .edu email addresses to post errands and pick up errands from others for extra cash. The errands range from a cup of coffee, tutoring, or a ride to the metro and even the stranger ones of a tutorial in Runescape. Julian has seen his product nearly launch, fail and be bounced back from Apple, and run out of cash all at the same time. It has been through his desire to become something great and expand his simple idea into a wanted and needed application by all college students that has pushed his application over the edge!
