Great Companies: How did you get your idea or concept for the business? Mir Hashim Ali: Actually my father, Mr. Hyder Ali is the main source of inspiration. He is the owner of ‘Yakun Marketing Private Limited' which is a leading processors and exporters of natural agro products from India. His strategies and inspiration has helped me a lot to understand this business. Under his guidance only I acquired the knowledge of the export and import business. Eventually I came up with the idea to trade premium quality of dates and saffron. Great Companies: What are the various services provided by Salonik Mir Hashim Ali: Our company, SALONIK.IN is the leading supplier of premium and finest dates as well as saffron in India. Great Companies: What makes Salonik different from hundreds of other similar service providers? Mir Hashim Ali: Our 'No compromise policy' with the quality of products is most demanding one in the market. At times we have got price competition from other brands but we never lowered the price by reducing quality just to attract people. We are stubborn on supplying quality products only. Apart from this, High level of transparency and real time surveillance is our major strength. Right from collection of quality products from the city of Bam in Iran to their packaging and transportation, everything is recorded properly to avoid adulteration. Great Companies: What were the struggles and challenges you faced and how did you overcome them? Mir Hashim Ali: Understanding the supply chain properly is probably the major hurdle in this business. So initial days were quite tough for me as well but as I already told you, my father stood by my side as a rock and I crossed this hurdle successfully. Apart from this I had to face some difficulties because of my very young age. I was just a teenager when I started it. So, while some people praised me for being young others didn't take me seriously. I had to prove myself time and again in order to be there in the market. Great Companies: How do you plan to grow in the future? What does 5 years down the line look like for Salonik? Mir Hashim Ali: I want to make SALONIK.IN, an international brand. Even I want to open a brand with my first name, 'MIR' and make it famous like any other world famous brands. Currently I am supplying my products in India but soon I am planning to launch it worldwide. Let's hope for the best. Great Companies: If you had one piece of advice to someone just starting out, what would it be? Mir Hashim Ali: Just one Quotation, " Ordinary people can choose to be extraordinary." This is what I firmly believe in. Never be afraid to start something and never give up on your dreams. Stay in touch with your loved ones and keep working. Apart from this develop the habit of reading. This will enrich you with the experiences of others and you are less likely to do certain mistakes which were already done by many people. Eat healthy, do some exercise and keep going.

1. How did you get your idea or concept for the business? I am a Homoeopathy general practitioner, with a practice of 50 years and I remember in the late 1970s, patients used to come to me with their hair problems like excessive hair fall, premature hair greying, and dandruff. There were a lot of chemical-based products at that time for these problems but being a doctor I had my apprehensions to prescribe any medicated allopathy shampoo. One day, a patient came to me and asked “Dr. Bakshi, do you or any other company makes homoeopathy shampoo?” I said no, and then I got this idea that there is a need. There’s a saying, “ Opportunity favours prepared minds” and I grabbed this need as an opportunity. I constantly started thinking and trying herbal formulations and eventually came up with sunny Arnica Shampoo. It was an instant hit in the first year of launch. Today Arnica Shampoo stands as a mass favorite because of its efficacy, results, and herbal orientation. 2. What are the various services provided by Bakson Drugs and Pharmaceuticals Pvt. Ltd Bakson Group is a premier organization, of purely Indian origin, working towards promoting Homoeopathy amongst the masses and providing them with the full benefits of this promising science. Bakson conglomerate is successfully manning nine divisions under its umbrella. Bakson’s Homoeopathy, Bakson’s Supplement, Bakson’s Organics, Bakson’s Veterinary, Bakshon’s Homoeopathy Medical College, Bakson’s Multi-speciality hospital, Bakson’s Naturopathy, and Sunny Herbals. Each division ensures to provide quality over quantity. 3. What makes Bakson Drugs and Pharmaceuticals Pvt. Ltd different from hundreds of similar service providers? There are a lot of similar service providers in India. Still, our quality, our research, our persistence, and the generational trust of our customers make us different and better from the others. Another reason why we are the No. 1 Homoeopathy manufacturer in India is that we are very strict when it comes to the quality of the product or the clinical trials. After the clinical results, we see the percentage of patients who benefitted from the product and years of observing and trials we launch a product. We make sure that our product actually works and that our patients are happy with the product and with their health. 4. What were the struggles and challenges you faced and how did you overcome them? The basic problem we faced initially was the acceptance of a new company. Other companies provide huge discounts or offers. I remember, 40 years back there were only 2 rooms in our factory, and it was very difficult to match or beat the quality with existing providers. The most challenging thing was to build confidence in doctors. We provided them with free samples, built their confidence with the actual results, and little by little the company started to grow with the confidence of doctors and our patients. Now we have thousands of Homoeopaths with us who are using our products for forty years. 5. How do you plan to grow in the future? What do 5 years down the line look like for Bakson Drugs and Pharmaceuticals Pvt. Ltd? In the coming 3-5 years it is my aim to bring homoepathy products to the masses. Homoeopathy medicine should be the first line of treatment and prevention in households. Today our throat aid or tonsil aid should be a remedy kept for every single child for sore throat and pain. I want homoeopathy medicines on the counter and make homoeopathy a household name and we are working towards it. I see a very beautiful future for homoeopathic products with the newly implemented law where an allopathy pharmacist doesn’t need a homoeopathy license to sell ayurvedic or homoeopathic medicines. 6. If you had one piece of advice for someone just starting out, what would it be? I always say this to my students, my children, or anyone for that matter, don’t run after instant success. Start from a smaller scale, make a good quality base first, and never compromise on the quality. Another piece of advice I would like to give is that be honest with yourself and your practice. Your conscious should be clear, money is secondary, the quality you give to your customer, and the service you give is primary. Don’t be unethical in your manufacturing or business practice. Don’t claim unnecessary results, it not only defames your company, and your product but also defames science.

Great Companies: How did you get your idea or concept for the business? Himani: I've been employed in the creative agency field for almost 6 years. Always wanted to work in this industry and contribute to society in a way that has a lasting positive effect, and what better way to accomplish so than to assist brands in developing compelling brand stories & plan advertising campaigns that connect with them and address relevant issues at the same time? So that's how the idea began to form while I was employed by another agency. In July 2021, I decided to take this up & formed our company and took the first step towards this vision. Great Companies: What are the various services provided by Media Mousse? Himani: Being a creative firm, we offer a wide range of Brand & Advertising services. However, we have a forte in Branding & Website Design and Development. With its services, Media Mousse assists businesses in creating a compelling and powerful brand identity. Great Companies: What makes Media Mousse different from hundreds of other similar service providers? Himani: 1. Policy for Custom Pricing 2. Enough modifications and options to avoid giving the client the impression that they have only a few choices. 3. A committed team that follows the client throughout the entire work process.. 4. Complete solutions for brand development and launch. Great Companies: What were the struggles and challenges you faced and how did you overcome them? Himani: Daily challenges continue to arise, but in the beginning, developing reputation and a clientele was something I really struggled with. It was mostly because of two factors: first, we were a startup, so large and mid-sized companies were wary; second, and maybe most importantly, was my age. Being a young entrepreneur may sometimes result in you not being taken seriously or not being given the same opportunities as someone older to you. Given how deeply ingrained such a culture is in every industry, we cannot hold anyone responsible. I was also aware that this would be a problem. The best approach to deal with and go past this is to develop your skills, obtain knowledge in many different fields so that you can communicate with everyone, be confident, find cleverer ways to make your point, and let people know what value you bring to the table. Great Companies: How do you plan to grow in the future? What does 5 years down the line look like for Media Mousse? Himani: The objective is crystal clear: by specializing in Branding and Website Design, two things we are positive we are good at, we carve out a niche for ourselves. In order to guarantee the highest level of efficiency for our clients, we have connected with some incredibly talented people and businesses that are skilled at TV Commercials & shoots. In order to harness technology and discover solutions that improve the outcomes for our clients, we are also in discussions with technology businesses about partnering. Great Companies: If you had one piece of advice to someone just starting out, what would it be? Himani: Deciding and taking action is one piece of advice I've heard and strongly follow. The only way to overcome uncertainties and lack of confidence is to confront them head-on and come up with a solution. If anything, you'll fail. But isn't a quick failure preferable to regret?

Great Companies: How did you get your idea or concept for the business? Reena Sharma: I got the idea from my own experience of not finding desired yoga and wellness services or ayurvedic experts for women where I stay. There are a lot of gyms but not many good wellness centers, especially for women. Great Companies: What are the various services provided by FitMi Health and Wellness Private Limited? Reena Sharma: We have positioned ourselves as one stop destination for all yoga and wellness needs of our members, both in-person and online. Starting from yoga classes, mediation classes, and ayurvedic medicines and treatment with focus on women. We also have a special segment for school going children called FitMi Junior where we partner with schools to provide physical wellness classes for school children. For the corporate world, we have FitMi@Work to provide amazing customized wellness packages to the companies. Our wellness retreats are for those who want to go away from the hustle and bustle of city life and do yoga and meditation in the lap of nature. Great Companies: What makes FitMi Health and Wellness Private Limited different from hundreds of other similar service providers? Reena Sharma: As I mentioned earlier, as far as I know we are the only platform that provides all the yoga and wellness services, for all ages and for all budgets, under one roof. I would also like to highlight here that we are particularly focused on tier 2 and tier 3 cities and small towns that are not targeted by most currently active players in this segment so far. Great Companies: What were the struggles and challenges you faced and how did you overcome them? Reena Sharma: Well, any new idea is initially met with ifs and buts by people around us. In this case also, I had to put my point across strongly to convince my family and friends. Once they understood, they helped me a lot. Great Companies: How do you plan to grow in the future? What does 5 years down the line look like for FitMi Health and Wellness Private Limited? Reena Sharma: We have started with Haridwar and Rishikesh in Uttarakhand and plan to expand to other cities of the state pretty soon. We will implement the same model in other states in the future as it starts growing. In my 5 years, I hope to see FitMi expand to international markets as well, especially in Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand and Hong Kong. Great Companies: If you had one piece of advice to someone just starting out, what would it be? Reena Sharma: If you believe in our idea, go for it. Be realistic and focus on customer happiness. rest everything will follow.

1. How did you get your idea or concept for the business? I worked in a variety of professions in Australia before founding the moving and packing company. Then I noticed numerous flaws in the moving industry, such as how consumers couldn't receive high-quality moves for the amount they were paying. This inspired me to create CBD Movers, my own moving business, in 2009. The idea behind this company was to offer customers the highest-calibre services at the most competitive rates. With this attitude and a commitment to providing the finest, CBD Movers quickly gained a solid reputation among the public. I started my business with merely a truck and two employees; later, when more people began to value our services, we began to thrive. Currently, CBD Movers has a fleet of more than 150 vehicles and a sizable staff of packers and movers. 2. What are the various services provided by CBD Movers? I initially only offered basic house moving services, but as we gained more exposure, we expanded to offer a wide range of services, such as office relocation, furniture moving, interstate moving, storage and warehouse facilities, packing and moving, pool table relocation, piano moving, and our premium quality packing supplies if any client has specific needs. 3. What makes CBD Movers different from hundreds of other similar service providers? I, Deepak Mandy, am the company's Managing Director and have been in the moving business for 20 years. This distinguishes CBD Movers from other businesses of a similar nature. I am someone that people look to for a fresh viewpoint and solutions to problems, whether they be social or professional. I have a solid understanding of the moving industry, its systems, and its procedures, which gives me the advantage to dominate a worldwide market as an influencer and entrepreneur while passing along the same recipe to others so they can easily copy and paste it. Aside from that, I want to draw attention to two aspects in particular: 1. How we assist individuals in having the greatest moving experiences. To carry out the relocation procedure effectively, we are utilising cutting-edge technology. 2. Eliminating the stress associated with moving is our passion, and we strive to offer unmatched moving experiences. We take care of every aspect of our clients’ relocation, from packing to unpacking all of their belongings. 4. What were the struggles and challenges you faced and how did you overcome them? In my opinion, the main problem for every company is to continue operating while maintaining the original concept. It's a struggle for survival. Additionally, we are working to establish a positive corporate culture. In the beginning, we had a lot of difficulties since we lacked the resources to meet the demands of our clients when they came up with odd requests. We were eventually able to resolve that issue and improve our infrastructure to ensure that no client was dissatisfied with our offerings. Additionally, we make sure that everyone in the team is aware of the problem at hand. I think the whole idea of survival is very strong, and once it is realised by the team members, everyone works towards it at their full capacity. 5. How do you plan to grow in the future? What will 5 years down the line look like for CBD Movers? We aspire to be the world's top moving company. To enable the construction of a sustainable and scalable firm, we are making sure that our foundation is very solid. Our current attention is on three things: Best-quality moving assistance Upgrading the infrastructure Removing the flaws We will concentrate on providing clients with services that are specifically designed to meet their needs for moving and relieve any stress associated with the process. I envision CBD Movers being a well-known brand with only good comments and reviews in the next five years. 6. If you had one piece of advice for someone just starting, what would it be? No matter what occurs, you must remain committed to your objective. There will be challenges along the way, but if you put in the necessary effort, stay focused on your objectives, and cultivate connections with other people whom you respect and like, you will eventually succeed. Keep in mind that you are atop the mountain of accomplishment. There may be times when you want to give up, but you must continue rising because you will eventually reach the top, and it will be thanks to your perseverance, hard work, and the people you meet along the way. I'd advise you to keep your eyes and ears peeled. To have a strong position in the market, we must act differently. And only by thinking outside the box will we be able to accomplish it. When we apply a unique viewpoint to our business by drawing inspiration from many sorts of systems, we engage in unconventional thinking.

Great Companies: If you had one piece of advice to someone just starting out, what would it be? GS KUMAR: My one piece of advice to someone just starting out as a startup would be to create a Buyer Persona after creating a product or service here is the step by step approach Gather data: Start by gathering data about your current and potential customers. This can include information from customer surveys, interviews, and sales data. Analyze the data: Once you have collected the data, analyze it to identify patterns and common characteristics among your customers. Look for demographic information, such as age, gender, and income, as well as information about their interests, needs, and pain points. Create a profile: Using the information you've gathered, create a detailed profile of your ideal customer. This should include information such as their name, age, occupation, income, and location, as well as their goals, values, and pain points. Add a name and picture: Give your persona a name and picture to make it more relatable and easier to refer to. Test and refine: After creating your buyer persona, test it by showing it to your sales, marketing, and customer service teams and ask them if it reflects the customers they interact with. Based on the feedback, refine your persona to make it more accurate. Use it: Once you have created your buyer persona, use it as a guide in all your marketing and sales efforts. Use the persona to create targeted content, develop products and services, and create targeted campaigns to reach your ideal customers. It's important to keep in mind that buyer personas are not a one-time exercise, and they should be regularly reviewed and updated as your business and customers change.

Website : https://akassh.co/peepoye-network Social Media : Facebook | Twitter | Instagram | YouTube | LinkedIn Great Companies: How did you get your idea or concept for the business? Akassh Ashok Gupta: Before starting Peepoye Network, I worked in corporates in a leadership position for 2 decades. It was during mid of this journey when I realized that one skill or an art that I am using in my job as a process transformation consultant is to solve problems of big houses but then I started realizing that the value that I am generating is immense for these companies but what about all those who are struggling with so many issues in their personal space or their social environment and that’s where the seed of creating content on social awareness started seeping in. I was always quite opinionated and had a strong personal perspective followed by a logical rationale which was not always the popular view but then carried a lot of merit because of its unique nature of dissecting things and I was sure if I create a platform whereby, I can start sharing these opinions for a wider audience, the value it would create will be a great support that so many need around us. I started with the first few videos and with the feedback that started pouring in the comment section made me realize that I can actually bring a positive change not just in businesses but in the whole social environment. While working in corporates, I started with a YouTube channel named “Peepoye” in 2016 with a mission of uncovering the hidden. I started uploaded my opinions on various social events, incidents, trending topics on this channel and organized change campaigns to raise awareness on some of the very sensitive topics and with time I could actually see an on-ground impact of our work. Some of our opinions around ‘Zomato Controversy’ and ‘Lucknow controversy’ was picked up my mainstream media channels and quickly Peepoye became a brand that people started trusting in. We started receiving thousands of messages across our social media platforms and some of our videos got so viral that, we touched almost 100 million impressions on these two topics alone across social media platforms. At this time ‘ab kuch nahi chupega’ tagline was coined as i thought now we have the community as well as the responsibility to talk further on more issues related to a common man. This mission was not easy though to do in parallel to a high-stake leadership job and thus, Last year, I quit my job and took YouTube as full-time work, and since then our YouTube channel has grown from 300K subscribers to 970K+ subscribers. During this stint, we have endorsed lot of value brands and covered lot of stories where two stories became widely popular where one was about an Indo-german couple who were harassed by their society members over a matter of dog’s poop and the other where an innocent guy ‘Rankaj Verma’ inspite of being innocent was dragged into ‘Chandigarh University MMS Scandal’ just due to careless and breaking news of some popular mainstream news channels. These topics provided further proof of how an intention, a platform like youtube and a community that thinks and works together can bring about bigger changes. This was further confirmed when Rankaj publicly admired our work as the sole reason he came out of the jail and could even eat inside as he knew that we are covering this. During this time one more thing happened and that is the growth that we saw on our channel and for sure my process transformation and consulting experience was helping unknowingly as i did understand YouTube algorithms way better than most of the youtube creators in the space do as i do data analytics for everything i do at a much deeper level including some scientific models around creation of audience avatar which many creators or influencers don’t even get to. So what happened is when I mentioned the same in some videos, i could see many YouTubers who were doing even better than me started approaching me to understand YouTube and improve in their niche. I knew the power of YouTube and how it is going to boom in the coming years. I also knew that I can guide people to accelerate their YouTube journey in such a way that no one else can do because of my corporate experience and an avid student of methods to madness. Hence, I decided to launch a product named “YouTubeneur” which is a course to become a YouTuber+Influencer+Entrepreneur where we are going to teach people how to really create content, share value and create multiple revenue streams by using youtube as a platform and by doing what you love the most. I am really looking forward to share this method as this is really integrated and well knitted to my own back story of switching from Job to creating Peepoye network and following my heart. We have a target to change lives of 1LAC+ people who we want to live their life and make their life by breathing passion and so our new tag line for the learning vertical and all the buddying ‘Youtubeneurs’ has been coined as ‘i breathe passion’ Great Companies: What are the various services provided by Peepoye Network Akassh Ashok Gupta: We provide 1-1 youtube channel audit & consulting services for existing YouTubers. We also provide a YouTubeneur course which is our flagship course that gives a clear-cut formula to fresh and existing YouTubers to excel in their YouTube journey and create multiple revenue streams organically by using youtube vs spending money on ads. We also have a mastermind group where I am personally invested every week in my member's journey as together we try to collaborate and achieve our respective goals. Great Companies: What makes Peepoye Network different from hundreds of other similar service providers? Akassh Ashok Gupta: Peepoye Network is led by me (Akassh Ashok Gupta) who holds 2 decades of experience in the corporate world in a leadership position. This is what makes Peepoye Network different from any other similar companies. Be it a social or a business problem, I am someone who people look up to for a new perspective and solution. I understand technology, systems, and processes quite well, and that gives me that edge to stand in a global market tall as an influencer and now an entrepreneur and teach the same formula to others which they can simply copy and paste. Great Companies: What were the struggles and challenges you faced and how did you overcome them? Akassh Ashok Gupta: Leaving my job in a leadership position and choosing my passion which had no income source at that time was the biggest challenge indeed. We could not earn much even from the YouTube videos as most of the videos remain non-monetized as they contain sensitive information. I kept doing part-time consulting based on my contacts and network in the corporate sector and a great rapport with the brands. Also, all these challenges were small as I was loving what I was doing & furthermore, what we were earning was a positive impact in the real world. With time, people started looking up to me and I established an influence in the market and started getting brand deals too which solved the income problem. Now we are further creating multiple revenue streams by the sheer principle of sharing amazing amounts of value. Great Companies: How do you plan to grow in the future? What do 5 years down the line look like for Peepoye Network? Akassh Ashok Gupta: We have undertaken a mission to help 1,00,000 people to live and breathe their passion. I have a ready formula for them to cut, copy and paste and I am ready to share this with the world which is called “Youtubeneur’. Under this flagship product, we provide an interactive community and hold live events so that their journey is monitored and coached at regular intervals and they are not alone in their journey but a community they can collaborate with. On the content production side and the brand ‘Peepoye’, we are now focusing on a short content program and expanding our content production team. Next year, we plan to do collaborations with big influencers in our niche so that we can start providing the perspectives which are important for the betterment of our social environment as that’s the most important thing that affects the psychology of humans. We have also created a changing community that is growing and we will start taking initiatives that are implemented on-ground as well apart from social media spaces alone. In 5 years' time, Peepoye network has the vision to produce a reality show which is based on an important principle of human psychology in various ill conditions and how you can manage the emotion of anger, guilt, and fear and replace them with high vibration state of ultimate bliss which is the need of the hour. We also aim at growing our change and learning communities as I believe communities will thrive as we get into 2025. Great Companies: If you had one piece of advice for someone just starting out, what would it be? Akassh Ashok Gupta: What you think is what you become. There’s nothing impossible if you really believe in it. Follow your mind and focus on money in the short term and you will get stressed out soon, you will feel uncertain sooner but Follow your heart and create a long-term goal and break it down into actionable tasks and projects that you are passionate about and the long-term journey will be a bliss and keep supplying happiness in abundance. Achieving a goal is not important but making the journey towards that goal is extremely important as only then you will attain it and that is only possible when you breathe your passion. I breathe passion… do you?

How did you get the idea or concept for your business? In 2011, I planned for the launch of a wealth management company—a registered investment advisor—and realized that I didn’t want to be held back by technology resources. To help us build a tech-savvy company from the start, I did a Google search for smaller technological companies run by people of character because such companies are more likely to establish long-term partnerships with other companies. Using that information, I interviewed around a hundred companies globally and in the emerging marketplace in North America. After identifying people who shared our team’s sense of stewardship and integrity, we assigned them projects and later hired them to launch the wealth management firm and build its digital presence. Through this process, my team and I realized that we had spent significant time (roughly a year) finding these great partners and that we should share and extend our resources to other businesses. There was a real opportunity for expansion because companies across industries were looking for the same type of partnership we sought ourselves. And this is how Blue Ocean Global Technology was born. Our company exists today because of our due diligence. We recognized that all the milestones we were trying to accomplish with technology solutions and digital marketing were ultimately related to reputation and brand image. So, we branded ourselves as a company that focuses on building online reputations and helps represent other companies’ goodwill, trust, relationship capital, and value. What are the various services provided by Blue Ocean Global Technology? Blue Ocean Global Technology offers a range of services, from reputation repair to building a brand. Our company caters to clients with a commitment to achieving optimal results in several branches of online reputation management. For instance, one of our main services is reputation repair. A negative reputation caused by certain content can quickly and adversely affect a company’s trajectory. The company’s profile can become untrustworthy, which limits opportunities. Blue Ocean Global Technology offers specialized services in content removal and the reparation of online profiles. As a result of our campaign, a company’s negative search results are strategically replaced with positive coverage after a careful analysis of the company’s online reputation. This reputation repair for companies is sustainable for the long term. Blue Ocean Global Technology also specializes in content removal. Defamatory and negative content can cause serious financial difficulty and intangible losses for a company. It can also result in lost opportunities and unreliable future careers and often damages the company’s reputation. Blue Ocean Global Technology offers strategic services to remove jeopardizing content and reviews that could negatively influence a prospective client’s perspective. We conduct cyber investigations. Cyber attacks and crimes aimed at a company, among other perpetrated attacks, have the potential to disrupt business operations and manipulate electronic records. Blue Ocean Global Technology provides digital protection by identifying the perpetrator, mitigating the issue, and safeguarding the company from future defamatory attacks. Internet defamation is another area in which we offer protection and prevention. False statements about a business can directly or indirectly cause monetary, emotional, and reputational harm. The consequences of online defamation could affect the victim both psychologically and physiologically. Blue Ocean Global Technology assesses such situations and not only identifies the most feasible solutions but also works to remove as much detrimental content as possible. When it comes to digital crisis management, after carefully investigating the situation and studying the company involved, Blue Ocean Global Technology helps affected companies contact and connect with PR firms to directly address digital crises and uncover solutions. Finally, I would highlight our personal reputation management services for lawyers. A client’s trust is paramount for lawyers and legal executives. Thus, maintaining a positive reputation as a legal representative is crucial for the representative’s success. Blue Ocean Global Technology’s website offers expert advice for such representatives on building a reputable persona online and invites individuals to contact and consult with our PR and Legal Online Reputation team. What makes Blue Ocean Global Technology different from hundreds of other similar service providers? Blue Ocean Global Technology does not just provide you with the services you ask for, it goes beyond that to ensure that your positive reputation is maintained and that future attacks are prevented. We take full responsibility for managing the situation so that you can have peace of mind and focus on other important matters. Our process is transparent and innovative, and we ensure collaborative communication between all parties involved. Blue Ocean Global Technology offers solutions that are customized to each client’s unique needs, ensuring that the service you receive best fits your company and/or brand. Our team of experts is reliable, honest, and committed to delivering excellence. Most importantly, we devote ourselves to the effort necessary to truly understand a client’s requirements so we can help that client achieve success. Blue Ocean Global Technology cares about your reputation and career. What were the struggles and challenges you faced and how did you overcome them? Accepting the fact that sometimes we have to say no to working with people has been a real challenge for me. When you are new to the business, you want to take on as many clients as possible. But we must know when to say no and be able to explain why we’d rather pass on a new relationship. Some clients are not aligned with your company's mission, so I make it known how I want to help people, and I commit to doing so efficiently. Another challenge is not understanding what a client wants to accomplish. Being unable to fully comprehend a client’s needs is something I have definitely been guilty of. Because of this lack of understanding, I have often transformed the relationship into a transactional one that works only toward the specific mandates the client envisions. But taking the time to really get to know a client and their business can ensure that you understand how to effectively work together. Lastly, a great struggle has been setting perfection as my standard. Although many people strive for perfection, it is an impossible goal. This has been a hard pill for me to swallow because I am ambitious and constantly seeking success. But we need to acknowledge that we are all human. Both life and business are learning processes. When you set the bar too high, you are naturally going to be disappointed. That’s why recognizing the challenges and struggles along the way and accepting imperfection is part of the journey to reaching optimal output. How do you plan to grow in the future? What does 5 years down the line look like for Blue Ocean Global Technology? Blue Ocean Global Technology has evolved from a company that caters to specific elements of marketing to one that works with companies and people that really understand the importance of digital reputation and how online reputation relates directly to their business opportunities. We want to grow this company by working with clients who have the same philosophy as we do. We appreciate clients who want to invest in technology, maintain their digital presence, and can recognize that they have an opportunity to earn a substantial return on their investment if they work with a company that can give them better strategies and improved access to information. We are in a fortunate position, with many people reaching out to us and wanting our help. We strive to work with clients who are committed to generating innovative and progressive strategies to grow their business, and we are focused on building a diverse team that can deliver on our clients’ increasingly complex mandates. We are successful today because we have been flexible and have invested in our clients for the long term by making them aware of all their options. This changes how they envision working with us. What we have realized is that with the high level of output demand and commitment we are building, we become an extension of our client’s team. If you had one piece of advice for someone just starting, what would it be? You have to believe in your mission and stay true to it no matter what happens. There will be hurdles in your journey, but if you work hard and remember what you’re working for, while also fostering relationships with people you admire and respect, you will eventually achieve your goals. You must remember that you are climbing the mountain of success. There will be days when you feel like falling off, but you must keep climbing because you will reach the peak one day, and it will be because of your belief, hard work, and the company that you keep along the way. https://www.blueoceanglobaltech.com/ https://girlpowertalk.com/ https://www.sameersomal.com/ https://www.instagram.com/girlpowertalk/

Great Companies: How did you get your idea or concept for the business? Chirag Bansal: We started with the intention of doing a small experiment. The experiment was to operate a boutique hotel at a very remote location in the mountains. The genesis of the experiment was the desire to do something in the mountains so that one gets a chance to experience them fully. That experiment went well. Since then we have been evolving based on the gaps and insights that we are identifying during the course of business. While operating a boutique property, we realised that there are many such beautiful properties which are not been able to reach the right audience. Therefore, we took the road to become a marketing partner of such boutique experiential properties. One major challenge that we realised during the marketing and selling of those boutique properties was how can we help people to discover those properties. As accommodation is just one component of a holiday and there are other components as well - selection of destination and activities at the destination; And the whole holiday planning starts with the discovery of the destination. In order to solve this problem, we started building our own platform to provide a solution for a complete holiday. It is a platform to discover and book experiential holidays. We have already spent about 2 years ideating and designing the platform and we are expecting it to go live in the next couple of months. Great Companies: What are the various services provided by LivingStone Stays Chirag Bansal: We are an experiential holiday company. When we say an experiential holiday - it means a holiday where all the components of a holiday are in-line with the experience. For example, if someone wants to go on a Relaxing holiday - then the destination should be offbeat, having peaceful surroundings; the accommodation should give the feel of serenity and the activities should be like Nature Walk, Bird-Watching, Massage or something which brings calmness. We have broadly categorised the experiences into 6 buckets - (1) Relaxing, (2) Thrilling, (3) Romantic, (4) Celebrations, (5) Spiritual and (6) Workation. We are offering complete packages for all the defined experiences. And these packages cover both domestic and International destinations. Great Companies: What makes LivingStone Stays different from hundreds of other similar service providers? Chirag Bansal: There are particularly two things which I want to highlight: 1) The way we help people to discover holiday experiences. We are using WhatsApp to drive structured conversations to help people find the right product. Based on the experience and budget, we are suggesting destination and package. 2) Our passion to design and curate a memorable experience - we are bringing differentiation in bundling different components of a holiday. We are making sure that the destination, accommodation and activities enriches the overall experience. E.g: A romantic experience would consist of a romantic destination like Maldives and accommodation would be within a private island resort. Services like Candle night dinner on the beach, sparkling wine and bed decorations would be a part of it. Great Companies: What were the struggles and challenges you faced and how did you overcome them? Chirag Bansal: I think the biggest challenge for any business is to stay afloat and keep the core idea intact. It's a survival challenge. And we are dealing it with creating the right culture within the company. We make sure that all the team members are aware of the challenge at hand. I think the whole idea of survival is very strong and once it is realised by the team members then everyone work towards it with their full capacity. Great Companies: How do you plan to grow in the future? What does 5 years down the line look like for LivingStone Stays? Chirag Bansal: We want to be a best Holiday company on the planet. We are making sure that our foundation is very strong so that a sustainable and scalable business can be built on it. Right now, our focus is on 3 things - (1) Products, (2) Processes, and (3) People. We are adding differentiated products to our portfolio; adding right set of people to our team; and making our processes strong so that we do not leave any gap for error. In next 5 years, we see LivingStone to be one of the leading player in leisure travel segment at least in India. Great Companies: If you had one piece of advice to someone just starting out, what would it be? Chirag Bansal: I would suggest to keep eyes and ears open. We need to do things differently to create a strong positioning in the market. And that can only be done if we are thinking unconventionally. Unconventional thinking comes when we take inspiration from varied kind of systems and bring that perspective in our business.
