Founder Overcomes 73 Rejections to Build Coffee Company

Jake Miller is the founder of a company called Fellow that makes coffee accessories.

He had an idea for a special coffee steeper while studying for his MBA at Stanford.

He started a campaign on Kickstarter to raise money for his idea, called 'Duo'.

Many people said no to investing in his company, 73 times to be exact.

But Jake didn't give up.

He believed in his idea and kept going.

Eventually, he got the money he needed and his company grew.

Now, Fellow sells many coffee accessories in big stores like Costco and Nordstrom.

Jake says the key to being a successful entrepreneur is to be passionate about what you do and never give up, even when things are tough.
