The idea for a courier service on bikes had been in the back of Beckham’s mind two years before the annual MU New Venture idea competition, but he said he never thought he would actually go through with it.
“I never saw myself as an entrepreneur,” he said, “but the opinions of the judges at the competition convinced me this was a doable thing.” . . .
The men see their business as a benefit to clients because it’s both time- and cost-effective.
“It saves businesses time because they don’t have to waste it by going out and mailing things themselves, and money because our service is much cheaper than other courier services,” Tinsley said. . . .
The business has seen a “snowball effect,” as Tinsley puts it, as more and more people get acquainted with it.
