So since all our previous posts were a bit random and informal, we've tried the more formal ( read clichéd) version of an article this time.
(The first paragraph with a smart ass quotation and an exaggerated introduction of our initiative. )
Milton Friedman kept saying "There ain't no such thing as a free lunch" ,We beg to differ.Our first initiative was started off on 11th September. It was to give photocopies to students at abnormally low prices. Wait!, not low prices, for FREE! . We know what you're thinking. "NO!,NO!,NO-GOLMAAL BOSS." But hear us out.
(The next paragraph with a painfully detailed description of our product and the response to it. )
We have got a tremendous response from the students at IIT Madras for whom we've started this. We provide not 100, not 200 but 1500 FREE PHOTOCOPIES to students everyday. On an average 6000 students will benefit from this during the course of one cycle.The copies run out in two hours. Two hours in which the rush in the xerox shop is comparable to the rush in a woman's clothes store during discount season. Two hours in which we see efforts of our team finally come to fruition. For us, it's two hours of satisfaction.
(The paragraph that boasts about ourselves ( this is usually not included in formal articles, but we just couldn't resist ) .
So the next time your IIT MADRAS friend actually has some money in his wallet, you'll know where he saved it from.Think of us as the student Robin hoods( we tend to get a tad bit over confident sometimes ,don't we?) who redistribute resources from advertisers to students by creating a win-win situation for both parties.
(The final paragraph with thank you notes to every possible individual involved, along with big promises for the future. )
We thank our Principal, teachers and fellow students for giving us this opportunity ( LOL JK)
But on a serious note, a big thanks to the students and all the people , for their tremendous response and support. This has been a real moral booster. We hope to cater to you in bigger and better ways in the near future. And about free lunches, we are not sure, but keep your eyes and ears open. Maybe we would get to that next!

Thanks to your overwhelming support, we have crossed 1000 likes! (without the help of a fake hot girl picture!). Although our statisticians say this is due to our brilliance and charming good looks, we believe it's due to the support and love you've shown us. Thank you people!

So...
1. Who ARE you guys??
All of us, founders and workforce, are just college students, working hard to make the everyday lives of students better.
2. Another company??? (*yawn* )why did you even start this??
Initially ‘College Connect Me’ aimed to take college students to the MOON for FREE. But after long discussions with NASA and ISRO, we came to the conclusion that this was not a feasible business. Hence right now we are just concentrating on making your college lives better in general.
3. Okay. But just what do you do??
Cheaper and better Notebooks, Free Photocopy for your notes, college related phone apps and cool websites. These are just a few of the things we are working on to help you take away so much more from your college days. And this, we achieve by exploiting the numerous brands that want to reach out to the student crowd.
4. Free?? cheap?? Seems fishy…just where do you get the money from??
The money for this we generate mainly by selling lemonades and apple pies in our front yard, and partly by exploiting the advertising potential of numerous brands that want to reach out to students.
5. My 3 year old sister can do all this!
Possible, but all of us in the team are college students ourselves and face the same problems all students do. Hence, it is possible for us to identify the needs of the student community, and we design our products keeping these needs in mind.
