What is operation Canine ?

Operation Canine is a project/experiment to start a company which will build, launch, and market a product in 3 days. We wanted to show people that it’s not as difficult as many people think to start a company, and getting a first version of a product built and deployed can be done fairly quickly.

With the economy the way it is at present there may be people that are thinking of starting up for themselves, or putting a project to the test, we’ll document the good the bad and the ugly as we go, and it may help people make their minds up one way or the other.

Operation Canine: We’re going to go from nothing to everything (hopefully) and launch a product that will help people monitor their advertising/campaign spend and responses, to better manage their spend. We’re going to donate 50% of the first year profits to charity, and hopefully offer a tool that will help businesses in the current economic downturn.

This is now live and the end results running on a Startup Essential hosted solution is at http://www.spendmeter.com/
