When dreams turn into drinks.

Hey, there, legal drinkers! Wouldn’t it be amazing if there was a brand new kind of wine in different flavors like Blue Razzberry Lemonade and Cranberry Limeade? Sounds sugary, though, right? In order for this drink to be perfect, it would have to have a low calorie and sugar count, kind of like a SkinnyGirl Margarita. On top of that, it would be awesome if it was packaged as boxed wine so that it could be shared with everyone so that all could take turns to “slap the bag.” Then, it could be used alone, frozen, with a mixer, or even as a cocktail. One can only dream.

Guess what? Dreams really do come true, and they’re called BeatBox Beverages. These delicious, low calorie, party-sized wine based drinks are officially on the market, and have begun a nationwide party-movement. At universities and venues all across the United States, people are slapping the bag with BeatBox and are united in the excitement this company has stirred up. The BeatBox team is so confident that people will love their product that they are willing to help sponsor events of all kinds, providing BeatBox Beverages, banners, and merchandise for participants over the age of 21.

Who came up with this, anyway? Business school student Justin Fenchel and his buddy Brad Schultz had a dream to create a mixed drink that trumped all boxed wines, one with great flavor while fun to drink. Together, they made the dream work, and teamed up with fellow business school classmates Dan Singer, Amy Steadman, and Jason Schieck. The BeatBox Beverages were born, and boxed wine has been revolutionized forever.

The BeatBox team appeared on "Shark Tank"in 2014, a show that allows entrepreneurs with brand new ideas to present them to “sharks,” or the founders of self-made empires. The entrepreneurs try to sell their creation to the sharks in hopes that they will invest in it and help their company boom.

Luckily enough, BeatBox Beverages sparked the interest of the sharks, and billionaire businessman Mark Cuban eventually agreed to invest $1 million for a third of the company. Once this occurred, BeatBox skyrocketed. Regional managers and brand ambassadors were hired for the company to share the fun all over the country, and are blowing up on social media. BeatBox events, social gatherings, and parties have taken over Snapchat, Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook, spreading great drinks and good times from city to city.

It is incredibly inspiring to see that with only a vision, a few college students can create something so exciting and popular. The founders of BeatBox Beverages put their heads together to accomplish something monumental, and took the nation by storm. Now, all legal drinkers can get in on the excitement and party with BeatBox Beverages! If you are of legal drinking age and feel moved to become a part of their movement while you “slap the bag,” you can apply online to become a brand ambassador. This position allows the person to take part in many different activities, some of which include opening up Key Stores nearby their home, doing dry demos in liquor stores, and throwing BeatBox Beverage sponsored parties. These ambassadors receive special rewards for their accomplishments and can even win a trip to party in Vegas with the BeatBox team.

With passion, hard-work, and teamwork, anything can be possible, so the time to start dreaming is now. Write your goals down and hang them up on your wall. Set them next to your bed. Print them out and keep them in a safe place. Do whatever you can to make sure that you read your goals every single day and have a clear idea of what you want to accomplish in this life. You may fail at times, but life is about picking yourself back up again and striving for success, no matter what stands in your way. The BeatBox team started small and grew to become a multi-million dollar success, proving to young people that we have the power to achieve greatness.

Now, keep one thing in mind -- you have the power, too. Go get ‘em, tiger.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.
