Hello everyone,

I’m excited to announce that I am embarking on a new venture in the import-export industry. While my background is in software engineering, and I also spent time preparing for civil services, I’ve realized that entrepreneurship is the path I want to pursue. After reflecting on my career and personal goals, I decided to channel my efforts into starting my own import-export business.

I have identified a few promising products for export and am actively looking for individuals who share similar interests, as well as investors who are open to exploring funding opportunities. I’ve already named my enterprise, and the GST and IEC registrations are in the works.

Though I’m relatively new to this industry, I’ve been educating myself and building process knowledge through various resources. My long-term goal is ambitious—I aim to achieve a turnover of ₹5 crore in the next five years. While this might sound bold, it’s the target I’ve set for myself.

I am looking for Interested Consumers & also would love to hear your thoughts, suggestions, or even constructive criticism. If you have any insights, advice, or are interested in connecting, feel free to reach out. Let’s build something great together!

I have six years of experience as an entrepreneur in the digital products and marketing space worked with more than 100+ clients, where I have delivered websites, mobile apps, and UX for small and medium businesses, my office in Delhi had to shut down after the second wave of COVID. Now, I’m looking to set up a new office outside of my current city(Visakhapatnam). Given that I already have some network connections in Delhi but am thinking that I need to start fresh in other cities, what would you suggest as the best city to target, considering business growth opportunities, especially in digital services?

Is there anyone here in the fashion related business who can guide me please? Thanks

Hello Guys! I’m seeking your valuable opinion on the packaging for my oil brand, Ayurdhaara. I'm currently deciding between two options: a pouch with a cap or a bottle. Since the brand is aimed at upper-middle-class consumers looking for affordable organic cooking oils, I want the packaging to reflect both practicality and premium quality. Both options have their merits, but I’m trying to determine which packaging would appeal more to our audience in terms of convenience, practicality, and aesthetics. What are your thoughts?

I have a showroom plot of 100 gaj in a tier 3 city and planning to do fabric business.

I have some experience in this field but I have only dealt with clients online.

There's no fabric shop in our area, especially not the ones with quality material. I know I can bring that to the market here. But since no one in my family ever had any brick mortar shop, I am unsure how to go about it.

How do you even begin?

So let's say, I build the showroom in a year, get interior done. Should I arrange for the stock beforehand or what? Should I hire staff beforehand and start training them? How many will I need anyway?

Can someone guide me a bit with basic steps please?

I would really really appreciate help from someone who already owns a retail store.

Hello all,

Currently my family is into retail of marble, granite, tiles, sanitary and other construction inputs in a rural area in Gujarat. I have recently joined my family business and am looking for opportunities of expansion. What I have realized is that the demand in rural areas for construction inputs is good and in this business showrooms are important in influencing the customer decision. This is also a business where there is huge investment in inventory and space(for both inventory and display).

Now there are a lot of players with some different target segments and business models, there are some whose prices are extremely low, some give very generous credit periods, some are heavily reliant upon craftsmen(Karigar), who are given commission, while some target the premium segment with imported and branded collections and architect partnerships.

What I am thinking of is since a lot of space is used up for inventory, why not separate the space for inventory and display. I am thinking of using my current outlet(comprising of godown) as a hub for inventory and set up showrooms comprising of only displays in major villages and towns in a radius of 30 km.

We have made calculations and this seems to be a good option with less investment and low breakeven period.

The things which we are concerned about is the branch/showroom will be run by employees, and we have never left too much work on our employees since we had only one showroom, my father or uncle always used to handle the whole customer journey, now we are not sure if an employee given the full responsibility will be able to do the same.

Other thing which I want to ask the community is how replicable this model seems to you in your area. I know about the rural areas of south Gujarat but not aware of other regions. Can you share some details if this model can work in other rural areas and cities.

And any potential problems with this business model that you can highlight will be appreciated.

I can do the following:

Content writing
Sales script writing
Sales page writing
Email marketing
Landing page writing
Advertisement writing

Basically I can do almost anything related to words.

Do not settle for less using the redundant services AI offers. Hire a professional writer to get professional work done.

I assure you I do much better than the AI you probably use, and charge a very reasonable fee.

I give you my word that I work more than I am paid for, and you will NEVER regret working with me.

So I was recently thinking of opening my own gym in the near future and running it on auto-pilot mode, and soon I realised that one of the biggest issues in running a business on auto-pilot is that you literally have no insights about how service your business is performing behind your back (not to mention, most service businesses fail due to poor service).

That's when I realised the need for an authentic and genuine review platform through which customers can leave their reviews (anonymously or with their names) that can be directly accessed by the business owner or some higher authority so they can understand what's truly going on with their business.

This is why I developed a 100% authentic review platform that will help businesses collect genuine reviews from their actual customers to understand their business’s ground reality.

Does import/export business actuallt work?

Hey all,

Does anyone here know whether import/export as a beginner business actually work? I dont mean in the sense that anything is possible. What i mean is, is it easy enough or have a really high success rate to generate an actual profit?

Or these import/export "gurus" on social media are just selling their courses by saying its easy and quick for anyone to get started and make a ton of profits?

Is this an actually legit avenue one should look at for a decent and steady income coming in every month.

So, I recently launched my first MVP, and the next one is right around the corner.

It is a mobile only app, based on a social media concept, and hence, right now, there are no revenue models or channels.

but indeed, I have my plans in place and have a concrete plan, model and MVPs for revenue generation in the future.

Right now, the app has 100 users with around 30 DAUs.

so, do you guys think I am ready for a seed round?

Any tips/references/pointers on angel investors in India would be really appreciated.

Thank you!

How can Amazon deliver my laptop from 600 km away in one night when it's not even shipping + I can't even find the retailer anymore (appario) when I have already paid for it isn't this breach of contract?

Hi all.What are some examples of regular small businesses(i am not asking for new ideas but rather tried and tested formats) which can be done with a small office/retail space and 1-2 manpower and generate modest returns.other than restaurant business.

Hi, I'm Mahesh, a 32-year-old male from India.

For the past 3 years or so, I have been trading in Indian markets. I have been trading in my personal account all this time. But I don't have enough capital, and I'm struggling to implement my strategies on low capital.

I believe that "It takes money, to make money."

I'm in need of sufficient funds/capital to implement my strategies with ease & less stress.

I'm not a scamster who promises you multifold returns etc. I want to form a legal company with partnership. I won't guarantee any amount of fixed returns. Our return expectations and risk will be on the same level. Or in other words, as we increase our % return expectations, then our risk increases exponentially. But, I will promise/try my best to generate returns greater than regular investment or savings methods can generate.

Based on your return expectations, I shall execute and deliver.

In the past, I have shared some of my analysis or predictions or updates on my social handles. I'm not sure if it's allowed to share social media handles here. If you're interested, check out my profile & post history etc. & then reach out to me.
