The Second Month.

The next few chapters will be a bit more fast-paced, as I'm mostly writing the same things for more chapters.

-------------

At the start of the first month, Ronan spent a lot of time looking for some part-timers he can hire to fix bugs, he spent a lot of his money that he gained, in total hiring 3 people for a total of $100 each per month, they were mainly doing it for experience but paying them a bit of money also helped them, but because they weren't experienced all the fixes they added were tested in the beta program that was added into the app by Ronan, it allowed people to have access to the latest updates without any guarantee that it worked perfectly, Ronan also spent a lot of time on creating a feedback system, instead of them writing reviews they can just submit feedback, it would be sorted based on the subject so that they can be categorized and easier to find them.

It took Ronan over 10 days for all of this to be completed, he also got his money from Jake whilst handing off the textbooks and he stopped completing textbooks so he can focus more on his app.

Ronan was also looking forward to going home in 2 months, in 2 months the college was on break for 2 weeks, so he could go home to visit his family and by then Ronan was expecting to at least have the app be self-sufficient, with himself possibly hiring a couple of people to fix the bugs and improve performance.

But right now Ronan was constantly trying to fix and update his app with his 2 'proteges'.

...

Over the next 5 days Ronan finish his mission for running, but kept running, the rewards were mediocre and Ronan didn't even notice the difference between having the skill and not, he had to rent more servers because he had over 120k people using his app, it was growing at a steady pace and especially because of the advertisements he was getting more and more exposure, he had set out a plan in order to make more money from his app, he was even thinking farther into the future about making another app and creating more opportunities, but that had to wait until the future, when his current app was making a decent amount of money.

In the meantime, Ronan was finishing off all his coursework for the week, he was trying to finish all his coursework for the week in 1 day then he can focus on his app, it was fairly simple, some of it was Business Law, part of it Accounting, some Website design and logo design, but mostly it was endless typing, designing products and marketing techniques, etc. Various different things, all related to business and all done in a single day.

Every other hour Ronan would take 5 minutes to check his App statistics, how many people are returning, how often people are online for, when they are online, why they are online if they use it to talk to people or are doing it to try and find bugs, either way, Ronan isn't too bothered because when they use his app he gets paid, only a small amount per person, but it adds up over the thousands.

Most of the last half of the month was spent on creating another app, but this one was bigger, it was going to take a lot of time and it was only a project, it was an Idle-MMORPG, a type of game where you can play and level up without being there, it was a great idea and many people had created games similar, but it was obvious to Ronan that it would take him at least 2 months to get all the basics down, and by that point he will have to hire people to get all the graphics and animation done, then its all about padding out the game, he would probably have to hire an economics graduate to create the economy, balance out the game so it's not too op for people who pay and the player base doesn't implode due to the people who pay killing off all the people who don't.

Anyway back to the present, Ronan was got paid for another time, it was every month on the 21st, 1 day after Riverwood gets paid, he gained over $3000 this month, his user base had doubled from 120k to 250k and he paid for more large and widespread advertisements online, fortunately it was still cheap only ending up paying another $100 on top of what he was already paying, in total he had to pay out over $1500 a month, $200 for 2 programmers, $700 for advertisements and $600 for servers, he had also checked out many different places to rent servers as these were on the higher payment end, compared to others, but if he backed out of the contract he would have to pay for another 2 months upfront which he could afford but would take a lot of his available money from Ronan.

Ronan had a lot of things to do, his coursework load was getting heavier and the deadlines were getting shorter, his app was getting more and more people, so he had to do more and more bug fixing so that he can keep the people coming back instead of switching over to the next messaging app.

Ronan had 18 more months of coursework then hopefully he can focus on his work or at least some sort of work whether it is creating apps or working for some company in the business administration, he would also have to write a CV, perfect it for a job, either way, he has a lot to do now and he doesn't really have a lot of time to do it in.
