Basically I just Start, when I start I don't have an idea this is the result of persistent so pasistence is basically passion and persistent is a Pasistence because we thought alone persistence or passion cannot change the world so passion and persistence can change the world so our tagline is passion wise persistent Deliver so driving factors there but lot people do not move whatever their passion is bcoz they want to see quick result and that never happens truly,
so I started this company but for the first 3 months I don't have a marketing experience and local marketing experience is zero because I only worked in MNC's and then I have come here and was thinking salary will come at the end of the month and it not happen and I had expenses so in the first 3 months we had zero revenue and then I thought ashay you need to learn something new and that's what we have done and then I got my first sale first share was 21,000, so we secure some money some in lakhs and we bought some laptops and I painted my whole office white because of steve job I admire him because I don't want to be 2nd steve jobs and he is my inspiration keep that in mind and painted my office white and telling you why should not follow someone so blindly so I painted my office white which is in old sanagavi and in sixth month lots of holidays come into the picture and some an auto driver who was trying to steal thing in our office. so in six months, we all screwed, so now our main office in Hinjewadi and then we got better security there but I am telling you in sixth month everything better right and then I didn't know what to do but I told out myself and we had into sales again and as well as managing my people.
