Uptown Tails is born!

Well, we did it: we launched UptownTails.com on Black Friday (which also happens to be my birthday). Woohoo!

However, I only launched to a few friends and not the whole world because, frankly, I'm not yet proud of it. Seriously, it's not something I can put my name behind right now. Hopefully in the next week we'll get it cleaned up enough to launch next weekend. I'm truly disappointed at how far behind this project is.

I didn't mention this at all before in the blog, but I've been working on this business concept since last summer. Uptown Tails sells premium dog and cat products. Basically, we're where you go when Petco and PetSmart aren't good enough. Think Pottery Barn for your pet.

My time at Babson has been crucial in understanding my future "serial entrepreneurial" route. There are several business opportunities that I have identified and am now armed with the ability to launch them. Uptown Tails is not my $billion idea, but it's great practice and one that I can truly be passionate about and enjoy. After all, what's better than having customers who are dogs and cats?
