My dear reader, I wish the best for you. May you succeed in your profession. May good things happen and you get far more than you ever asked for. I hope you get employment as per potential. Therefore, today I’ll ask you a question rather bluntly. What is your true worth outside your office? What [...]
If you’ve never hired for your product startup, then you can face challenges in the beginning. Especially if your firm is bootstrapped. It’s not that you hire good people from well-known companies and that will be sufficient. If you’ve worked with a leading brand, then you’ll always have good people applying to your company. The [...]
May good things happen to good humans, who want to be entrepreneurs. I pray they’re able to succeed in their dreams and bring a good idea to life. A good creation brings happiness for everyone. The world is a better place because entrepreneurs exist. After graduating from college, me and my batch mates worked for [...]
Some of us don’t startup, though we want to, because we’re afraid to fail. The recommended approach in such a case is to do something with low risk. Higher risk means higher chances of failure. Startups who follow a familiar territory, have greater chances of success. If you’re already doing something well offline, then the [...]

I wish that people who’ve done good to me, do well in their lives. I feel about them when their startup fails. Mostly it’s because they don’t plan before launch and operate it based on assumptions. The startups which usually succeed are the ones who plan well. Just by having ideas in your head, will [...]
One of the most common queries I get from people is, whether they should go ahead with an idea or not? Such as, if an idea like UrbanClap will work in small Indian towns? Whether they should get a hardware manufactured from China? Should they launch a blog in regional languages with revenue model on [...]
Whenever you have outsource work to a vendor or someone has to get work done by you, be prepared to ask this question. "What's the 1 thing you’re best at?" The answer to this question will determine how genuine someone really is and also increase your own chances of succeeding at work. If someone says [...]
"Come join my startup, I will give you stake" "I will make you equal business partner in my company" "This is your company now" If anyone tells you these words, then of course you'll feel happy, especially if you have been in a job before. A co-founder means becoming an entrepreneur, usually without actually starting [...]
