Great Companies: What are the struggles and challenges you face?
Pravin Balakisan Biyani :
Challenge 1
One of the biggest challenges faced by Learnbix was that to convince the schools and educational institutes to adapt to the e-learning and technology because they were reluctant to accept the change and allow the new entrant like us.
How we solved the challenge?
We provided the full product to the teacher and the principal for the referral. After exploring the content, many schools approached to us for our services. It took us around 2 months to get our first school client.
Challenge 2
Another challenge we are facing from the big giants in the industry. Today the ed-tech industry has became very challenging industry as the foreign funds are coming into it. After the changes made by the China, India is seeing the new scales of investments in the educational sector. The giant players have funds for the excessive marketing.
How we solved the challenge?
We are focusing on the quality product. Our main marketing is our result. We focus on the clients; we fulfil their demands and in return we are getting the positive words from them. This is making our work easier. A good feedback shows better results than an advertisement of lakh rupees. We focus on every feedback.
