uSnacks is Born: Part 1 of 3
This is part 1 of a 3 part series on the philosophy and birth of uSnacks. Enjoy.
What is uSnacks?
uSnacks was founded with the goal of making the pastime of college snacking easier. Amazon changed the way we buy books, iTunes changed the way we buy music, we believe uSnacks will change the way college students buy snacks. uSnacks is about taking what used to be tedious and hard and making it simple and easy.
Why Should I Care?
uSnacks was started by college students for college students. The idea was to make it super easy for students to buy snacks in bulk and have them delivered right to their dorm. While putting this vision into action the uSnacks team experienced how hard it was to build a business from scratch. There were issues with money, partners, business plans, website design, marketing, legal drafting, the list went on and on. We found ourselves spending 80% of our time and money dealing with startup issues that seemingly had nothing to do with our business operations. Then it dawned on us. There must be college students all across the country that have the desire and motivation to run their own business, but for whatever reason have trouble executing due to these daunting obstacles that come along when starting a business. uSnacks provides these motivated students with the opportunity to run their own uSnacks operation at their college or university without dealing with these frustrating issues.
