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?
