Editor’s Note 2021’s Most Unrelenting Businesses: Companies that are Pioneering Transformation in Their Industries

A

fter last year’s hardships, 2021 has brought with it a sense of optimism and hopefulness for the entrepreneurial world. The shift in the economy has encouraged businesses to adapt to the ‘new normal’. It has also spurred them to be ‘adversity-ready’.

They’re now prepared for literally any challenge that’d come their way. A few companies have been exceptionally capable at this adaptation.

They’ve not only survived the economic crisis but also managed to turn it into a massive growth opportunity.

“C1INDIA PVT LTD” is one such organization that has been effective at handling the crisis. The company seamlessly transitioned its operations digitally, weeks before the government of India declared a national lockdown.

Throughout the pandemic, the company paid extra attention to the health and safety of its clients as well as employees.

RoyalShield is another company that has successfully persevered through the crisis. Despite the adversities caused by the pandemic, the incredible team at RoyalShield adapted to the new change and worked relentlessly on their R&D. The company’s continual growth efforts helped it stay relevant in national as well as international markets.

Ami Polymer Pvt. Ltd is a brand that contributed significantly to the nation’s inoculation drive for COVID-19. The brand is now the preferred choice among Indian Vaccine manufacturers for their silicone needs. Ami Polymer’s Silicone Tubing are being used for the Covishield and Covaxin vaccines.

Apart from these companies, there were others such as Lingel Windows and Doors Technologies, Inteliment Technologies, and Rubsicape which sparked innovations that were acknowledged in international markets. Their ingenious business models and robust customer support helped them gain an edge over competitors.

We all can take inspiration from these companies and learn from their longsighted business approach. We also need to keep a constant eye on market movements so that we can adapt readily to change. As always, a growth mindset and an optimistic outlook will be the key ingredients for entrepreneurial success.

Our solutions encompass the entire gamut of end-to-end procurement lifecycle including, Indent Management, Tender Management, e-Auctions, Catalogue Management, Warehouse Management, Supplier Management and Contract Management,” says CEO of C1 India, Mr Sanjay Puri.

C1 India has also recently launched its new venture AuctionOnClick, an e-marketplace/listing space for all kinds of bank auction assets (NPAs), ranging from residential & commercial properties to motor vehicles. AuctionOnClick offers PAN India coverage, listing all the properties that are to be auctioned across the country. The venture aims to empower investors by helping them to seek investment opportunities through credible and legitimate auction sources and better insights for listed NPAs via banks and financial institutions.

C1 India hit another major milestone in 2010 when it bagged its 1st overseas project - Sultanate of Oman. The project won the “Best e-Governance implementation” award among GCC countries.

Today, C1 has implemented its tools in more than 70 ministries. The brand is a specialist in strategic sourcing with a legacy of over 2 million-plus successful auctions and 18 million-plus executed tenders. It has served clients across 30 plus industry verticals and has completed $750 billion-plus worth of transactions since 2000.

C1’s Impressive Client Portfolio

Being an internationally recognized company, C1 has served a broad variety of customers, from corporates to government and financial institutions, across all business verticals and sizes. Some of its most eminent clients are Deloitte, KPMG, Airtel, ITC, SBI, Canara Bank, BHEL, GAIL, Sultanate of Oman, and the State Governments of Gujarat, Delhi, Rajasthan, and Goa.

The Brand’s Inception Story

C1 India entered the e-procurement domain in 2000.

Back then, e-procurement was an emerging market and convincing market players to adopt the newer technology was a strenuous task. However, C1 India’s founders had faith in the untapped potential of public procurement.

In the late nineties, there was little being done in the name of digital governance. The NEGP (National e-Governance Plan) was established later in 2006 which laid out areas where there was a need for computerization. Even the income tax e-filing came only in September 2004. A few other large initiatives like the online train ticketing system also launched in 2002.

At a time when there were few concerted programs for e-Governance in India, C1 India developed and launched a comprehensive e-Procurement platform for Government departments. It became the first organization in India to offer e-Procurement solutions on a SaaS model and roll out a statewide e-Procurement implementation.

Within just two years of its existence, C1 India created its niche in e-Procurement. In 2002, the Government of Andhra Pradesh partnered with the company to develop India’s first e-Procurement Portal, which spurred the growth of the brand.

Indian market!

• How E-procurement is transforming the landscape of Indian businesses?

• How e-procurement is revolutionizing the MSME/SME sector?

For Sanjay, his competent workforce is his greatest asset.

He owes a major chunk of C1’s success to his hardworking employees and their relentless efforts. “Our company has been fortunate to have the right human capital and culture to push our growth engine. C1 India proudly labels its employees as the brand ambassadors for influencing customers and enhancing growth prospects with their deep expertise.” He stated.

He sees to it that his employees are given adequate autonomy and authority to make strategic decisions for the company.

He spurs them to develop their ability for calculative risktaking. He also ensures that they’re given consistent and all-round support for their work. “We offer a wide array of opportunities for our employees to bank on and we share a common belief of thriving for excellence, delivering value, accelerating growth, and fostering innovation” he added.

Sanjay has played a pivotal role in helping the brand achieve its current success. His efforts have bolstered C1’s position as a leading e-Procurement expert in global markets.

Maintaining a Work-Life Balance

“Leadership in your world begins with the leadership of your life,” affirmed Sanjay. He believes in practising discipline in his daily routine, right from the discipline of early awakening to the discipline of doing things on time.

“I schedule every single minute of my day. Assigning specific tasks to specific time blocks ensures that I get done exactly what I need to when I need to.” He added.

Future Plans for C1 India

Given the rapid transformation taking place in the procurement industry, Sanjay has conceived numerous developmental goals for the company. Here are some of them:

Mr Sanjay also ardently believes in living a quality life.

“Don’t be so busy striving to make a living that you forget how to live life.”

As the busy CEO of a growing company, he ensures that he gets proper rest, follows a hygienic diet, and indulges in some form of physical exercise.

Integration of new-age technologies with the procurement system: C1 desires to make their procurement solutions as robust as possible by integrating the latest tools and new-age technologies. The company’s comprehensive procurement solutions to be powered by blockchain, AI, and newly developed technologies will make the procurement experience more intuitive and proactively deliver actionable information to the users.

Views on Stereotypes Faced by CEOs

Every CEO faces the wrath of societal stereotypes, at least at some point in their career. While some overcome them, many give up on their dreams and aspirations after succumbing to their influence. Having been in the industry for nearly three decades, Mr Sanjay has seen countless incidents wherein stereotypes have killed entrepreneurial dreams. Here’s his take on the matter: “As a decision-maker, you can always find a solution if you try hard enough.

Believe in your dreams and your ability to accomplish them. To reach your ultimate potential, your personal best, and to make the ‘impossible’ possible, just pick a goal, a goal you truly want to achieve, take a clear-eyed look at your weaknesses, push yourself, go to the absolute limits and not fear failure. When people are successful, we always focus on their success, not on the years of struggle, failure, and trying again and again. We only see the bright side and don’t want to or forget about the years of hard work, while those years mostly bring the most inspiring and motivational stories. So, don’t be afraid of failure. It’s merely a stepping stone on the path to success. Be fearless and embrace all the failures you encounter on your journey.

With time, you’ll realize your true potential and succeed in your undertaking. Always remember, sheer perseverance and steadfast determination conquer all.”

Integration of new modules with procurement system:

C1 plans to soon integrate new modules with their procurement solution so as to make it more powerful and reliable. Their BI reporting tool will be able to visually analyze the data, extract meaningful insights and give more control over report distribution and scheduling.

Expense Management and Spend Analysis tools will be soon powered by AI and Blockchain to uncover the savings opportunities with enhanced data/transactional security.

High-tech space of Cyber Solutions and Shall deal in Cyber Security & AI (Artificial Intelligence) based Products & Solutions: C1 is foraying into a new vertical in

the high-tech space of Cyber Solutions. The world today is run by information and data, which plays a critical role in the functioning of our personal lives and businesses. As our lives become more and more digitized, we’re pressed to find effective means of protecting our privacy and harnessing diverse information.

Soon, C1’s custom Big Data Analysis software which would

be able to ingest huge amounts of data and provide analysis in the form of charts and visual relationship analysis. The software will have a customized module to ingest data from multiple Open Source databases available on the net. Government organizations, as well as corporates, are under a constant deluge of unstructured data in the form of word docs, power points, pdfs, and much more. It’ll leverage state-of-the-art Machine Learning algorithms to develop a curated solution for entity extraction and disambiguation from all types of unstructured data.

Here are some of its important applications: • • • • • • •

A Message to Budding Entrepreneurs

Having been in the industry for almost three decades, Mr Sanjay has acquired some invaluable insights that he’d like to share with young entrepreneurs. Here’s what he has to say: “There is nothing noble in being superior to others. Nobility lies in being superior to your former self. Success on the outside begins within, you need to make a vow and not a goal to lead yourself each day.

Failure is not an option for visionary leaders, as we see the world not as it is, but as we are.

Raise the bar.”

Chaitali Das:

Guinness World Record Holder

A Resilient Womanpreneur Who’s Reviving jute

Background: what had prompted to work for the reformation of the prison inmates:

nternationally acclaimed Jute Revivalist and Social Reformer, Chaitali Das, is the prestigious Guinness World Record holder for the largest jute bag in the world. 30 years into philanthropy, she is a former Mrs. International, Times Power Woman - Social Entrepreneur 2019, Social Icon of the Year 2021

by Economic Times & HRD India, Social Entrepreneur of the year 2019 By MSME Bangalore. She is the Global Chairperson & Managing Trustee of Rakshak Foundation.

Her contribution to humanitarian service has earned her a number of international and national awards and recognitions.

She is the first-ever Fortune Most powerful women, US/ State Department alumna from Bengal. Chaitali has led the first-ever Indian all-women’s delegation to China, first-ever delegation representing an Indian Non-Profit Civil Society Organization in two consecutive years to China. She has advocated and promoted jute, in various prestigious platforms in countries like US, Netherlands, Canada, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Dubai, Nepal, Sri Lanka to name a few.

The combined ethos of Revival and Reformation is reflected in all the work she has accomplished and plans to undertake in the future. Chaitali Initiated an innovative Store-on-Wheels for showcasing diversified jute products. The heritage tram ‘PAATRANI’ which translates to ‘Queen of Jute’ was immensely appreciated and applauded by the people of Kolkata.

She is involved in social upliftment of the underprivileged. Her skill and livelihood development project ‘Jute Story Beyond Bars’ in the Dumdum Central Correctional Home and Presidency Correctional Home has been widely appreciated and applauded as a very important step in reformation of prison inmates and helping to de-stigmatize their existence. She has helped to rehabilitate released female prison inmates and their reinclusion into the mainstream society.

Being a woman, economic empowerment also occupies a significant space in her work. In all her projects, she has tried to involve maximum number of women as beneficiaries. She has conducted various activities and training programs for women in the correctional homes, including painting, leather bag making, cookie making and such, to engage the inmates into constructive and gainful activities.

Chaitali’s own path has not been easy either. She has had her own share of gender discrimination, alienation and dissuasion as she ploughed her way into the field of social service. Nevertheless, she not only persuaded her family and friends to understand her point of view but also wrought the wider society to take notice and applaud her work. Appreciation came in generously, once she had emphatically established her work and relentlessly made progress on her chosen path.

Chaitali consistently continued the welfare work when she served as the President and the Assistant Governor at the Rotary International and served on boards of various national & international non-profit organizations, including various chambers of commerce.

From Fashion shows, showcasing jute on prestigious international and national platforms to making a world record to conceiving unique, innovative projects to promoting jute and advocating eco-conservation and reformation of the society, Chaitali Das cuts an outstanding figure as a revivalist and reformer.

Great grand daughter of Justice Chandra Madhav Ghosh and daughter of Public Prosecutor and Professor of Law, Chaitali grew up in a family of legal practitioners. As a child she had the opportunity to visit her father in the Alipore Police Court , a sight caught her attention, she saw some people were getting off the police van hand cuffed, with thick rope around their waist, their kin and close ones trying to reach them out and policemen driving them away . The humiliation that branded the undertrials and the ordeal of their families also the stigma when they return back to the mainstream after serving the tenure disturbed her.

Her philanthropic and socially responsible zeal found a match in her husband, a business man who supported her with funding. As the Managing Trustee of Rakshak foundation she worked in various humanitarian services in the area of women empowerment while conserving environment, targeting inclusive growth which includes Nabadisha Centre for street children with Kolkata Police, Government of W.B. Computer Training Centre for adolescent girls, Debate, seminars to advocate gender parity.

In 2016, her Foundation received the permission to work in Alipore Women’s Correctional Home from the Directorate of Correctional Service, Govt. of W.B. for the vocational training, aiding to reformation measures.

The journey was not easy, to work with prison inmates which was vehemently opposed by her close ones and peers. Nevertheless, she went ahead with her mission with a firm resolve. She faced social isolation in her business circles and was looked down upon for working with people carrying the tag of Convict. She faced discouragement when she decided to work on reviving Jute. She was told that it was not worth, as it constituted a dying industry and a very base material to work. However, despite all the dissuasion in 2017, she began work towards bringing an Ecofriendly green revolution behind the tall walls of confinement, resulting in the launch of her project ‘Jute Story Beyond Bars’ (JSBB).

After the project was formalized, she faced multiple challenges into the high security area of the prison. Initially, she faced reluctance from the inmates to begin work. It incurred huge waste of raw material and time.

Inmates are trained through ongoing workshops, under the aegis of her Foundation. Two product development units are successfully running under her team’s supervision, a Former inmate Ms. Lovely Adhikary and a certified trainer Amrita Adhikary are employed by her foundation for supervising the units at Dum Dum Central Correctional Home & Presidency Correctional Home.

Her journey continues to reach out across the globe with the Indian jute products as fashion statement by adding a gamut of new designs, she has infused a new life and vibrance in the way Jute is perceived, she has revolutionised the pattern & usage of Jute products.

RoyalShield Technologies India Private Limited: Mr. Chandra Shekhar’s Vision to Provide Hi-Tech CCTV Surveillance Systems to Indian Businesses

W

hile technology keeps reshaping various dimensions of business, it has kindled video surveillance as a fundamental need. In this constantly transforming era, enterprise operations in all sectors can’t be secured, within walls or barricades. For operations that can’t be overseen with the naked eye, industries are increasingly investing in specialised camera technology. High octane sectors like Oil & Gas, IT, Manufacturing, etc., largely use video surveillance technology to ensure productivity and security of overall operations. Today, users opt for more consolidated innovations, for both software and hardware. In video surveillance, they aim for camera technology that is resilient and capable of providing high-quality videos.

RoyalShield Technologies is one such renowned tech-partner addressing the need for video surveillance solutions. Formed under the ‘Start-up India’ initiative, RoyalShield is a creative venture of a group passionate technocrats, who understood the potential of CCTV in India, and believed the nation should have its own premium Indigenous brand, to reduce the dependency on MNCs. The importance of video surveillance is often neglected because of the controversiality the subject carries. However, in the current social climate, video surveillance plays a significant role in ensuring the overall safety of your assets and your workforce. Moreover, as a business owner, it is justifiable to be worried about the physical health and safety of your employees, especially when you’re away.

CCTV monitoring is one of the most popular forms of video surveillance available today. Experts believe that nearly 67% of the thefts that take place in businesses can be avoided by installing a CCTV monitoring system.

RoyalShield Technologies India Pvt Ltd is a renowned CCTV surveillance manufacturer based in New Delhi. The company offers a wide range of IP CCTV products and Network Video Recorder to cater to the diverse needs of its clients.

ITMS Safe City Banking Hotel & Hospitality Education Retails IT & Telecom Road & Transport Railways Government Verticals

Noteworthy Recognitions

RoyalShield India is registered Department for Promotion of Industry and Internal Trade (DPIIT), Govt. of India, MSME, DIC / Udyam Akanksha, Bureau of Indian Standards (BIS), Government eMarket Place (GeM), ISO9001- 2015, ISO14001 – 2015 , CE, FCC & RoHS Certified Brand.

Mr. Chandra Shekhar’s Inspiring Entrepreneurship Journey

The Brand’s Inception Story

Mr. Chandra Shekhar describes entrepreneurship as an undertaking that requires tremendous bravado. He quotes the words of LinkedIn Co-founder Reid Hoffman: “Entrepreneurship is jumping off a cliff and assembling an airplane on the way down”. It was quite a difficult decision for Mr. Chandra Shekhar to leave a high-paying job and begin a venture from ground zero.

He had to drastically alter his lifestyle to adjust to the demands of entrepreneurship. He was also faced with the challenge of competing with several well-established Chinees brands in the industry. Moreover, some of his own team members got influenced by those Chinese brand and abandoned him and the organization abruptly. Despite such challenges, however, he and his team eventually succeeded in getting the business off the ground. The brand has continually grown in all of its facets ever since. In just a matter of only five months, RoyalShield Technologies India Private Limited has successfully acquired 75+ Govt. Projects, Corporate Projects and even some overseas Projects.

Every business starts with an idea, and Mr. Chandra Shekhar’s idea was to be a dangerous dreamer. “Starting my own business came from working for others for a while & learning so much about how I didn’t want to do things that I decided it was time to branch out and make a real difference on my own. Now, don’t get me wrong, I learned things in every situation I was in, but my strong opinions & passion were never really fully understood in the workplace.

I always knew the most important thing was to make a real difference in life & now I do that every day! It’s the best decision I ever made,” He said.

When Mr. Chandra Shekhar realized that the fear of terrorism and the number of crimes against women was increasing by the day, he was spurred to do something about it. He thus decided to establish RoyalShield Technologies in 2020 to strengthen the security measures in cities. His products are intended to provide law enforcement agencies with visual data for their anti-crime and anti-terrorism efforts. Their constant surveillance helps in nabbing offenders and identifying security loopholes in a given area.

Ever since its conception, RoyalShield Technologies has consistently grown in both revenue and customer base. Despite being hardly a year old, the brand is already among the top CCTV Service providers in entire PAN India and few Oversease Customers includes USA. The brand’s speedy success has earned it a spot among the “The 10 Most Valuable Brands to Watch in 2021” in Prime Insights Magazine.

Plans For the Future

Mr. Chandra Shekhar aspires to make RoyalShields the preferred choice for all Regional Distributors /Channel Partners/System Integrators along with end users. To achieve this, he’s ensuring that all of his products are in compliance with the highest quality standards. He’s also offering customers robust pre and after sales support. In the near future, he’ll introduce a complete range of security solutions that’d include CCTVs, Networking Switches, Cables, Displays, etc. “We are contiously working on upgradation and creating / adding many more product line in our product portfolio to enter into complete range of video surveillance solution very soon. ,” says Mr. Chandra Shekhar, the Founder of RoyalShield Technologies India.

“

India’s CCTV market is expected to register a CAGR of 22.35% over the forecast period from 2020 to 2025. Terrorism is undoubtedly a significant issue in India, especially in the light of the numerous terrorist attacks over the last twentyfive years. With a population of over a billion people and high levels of mass poverty, multiple religions, languages, and ethnicities, security is a significant threat in India.

RoyalShield’s Customer-Centric Approach

”

Message to Aspiring Entrepreneurs

Propagating the holistic ‘grow and give’ mentality, Mr. Chandra Shekhar encourages all young entrepreneurs to realize their true potential and then contribute to the success of the nation. Here’s what he has to say: “Just a few suggestions. Get out from your comfort zone, plan well, and become your own boss. Fulfil your dreams, generate employment opportunities and contribute in the nation’s economic growth.”

The brand holds the adage “Customer is King” to be of paramount importance. It gives great emphasis to winning the trust and loyalty of its customers. Contrary to the widespread notion, Mr. Chandra Shekhar doesn’t associate a brand’s identity with its logo. Instead, he views it as a mere visual symbol for a business. According to him, a brand is defined by its product and service quality

Lingel Windows and Doors Technologies Pvt. Ltd: A Pre-eminent Manufacturer in India’s Fenestration Industry

T

he fenestration industry in India is worth over a billion dollars.

Since the 2000s, the industry has attracted great attention from international window and door manufacturers. The immense scope for growth in the industry along with the increasing demand for quality windows & doors in Indian homes are the major reasons behind this international interest. The interest has been especially strong for some European brands, who’ve raised the bar for quality standards with their top-grade fenestration products.

Lingel Windows and Doors Technologies is one such brand that has emerged as an eminent manufacturer of doors and windows in India.

Ever since its entry into the Indian market in 2006, the brand has adhered to the highest international quality standards. This dedication to excellence has helped Lingel outmatch some well-established brands in the Indian market.

Lingel’s Inception and Entry in the Indian Market

Karl Lingel Fensterbau GmbH & Co. KG was established in the year 1959 in Ellwangen, Germany. The brand was conceived with the intent to transform architectural opportunities in the fenestration sphere.

In 2006, Lingel established a new window business in India. It was driven by the goal of providing safe and sound milieu in the Indian subcontinent. The brand, since then, has consistently grown its business and acquired a stronghold in the Indian fenestration market.

Lingel’s Comprehensive Services Lingel provides a broad range of fenestration solutions to its clients. Not only do these services meet the highest quality standards but they’re also priced reasonably.

What Makes Lingel Stand Out From Its Competitors

Lingel Doors and Windows has served the European market for over 60 years and the Indian market for 15 years. It is regarded as one of the most experienced companies in the international fenestration sphere.

Owing to this rich experience, it is ranked among the top choices for doing fenestration work in building and architectural projects. Lingel is also one of the leading manufacturers of uPVC and system aluminium products.

The most outstanding feature of the company is its customer-first policy.

At Lingel, all fenestration products are manufactured under one roof.

This is very convenient for clients, as they can buy complete window solutions from the company. Furthermore, Lingel provides complete warranty and after-sale service for all its products. This strengthens the customers’ trust in the brand’s services.

How Lingel Ensures Utmost Customer Satisfaction Lingel stands true to its company motto: “The customer is always first”. All of its products are manufactured with a customer-centric approach. Each window or door made by the brand is tailor-made according to the unique demands of each customer. They’re also made in accordance with the highest European manufacturing standards.

Furthermore, Lingel’s technical team offers customers a detailed overview of all their offerings. They guide the customers on selecting a product/service that’s best suited for their fenestration requirements. All of Lingel’s team members are required to undergo special training in Germany and India for this. The training ensures that their knowledge and skills are in adherence to the highest service standards. The customers can also directly contact Mr. Mario Schmidt, the Managing Director of the company. They can email/call him to discuss queries /issues about the products.

Over the years, Lingel has maintained the most rigorous quality standards for all its offerings. In all of its services, Lingel has placed great emphasis on providing maximum value for money. The company’s impressive referral rate is a testament to this fact. A staggering 50% of the company’s total orders are from referral customers. Lingel also ensures that all complaints/feedback from customers are immediately acted upon. This responsiveness has helped it greatly boost its customer retention rate.

Overcoming Market Resistance in India

Back in 2006, when Lingel entered the Indian fenestration sphere, few people knew about the benefits of UPVC products. Lingel was faced with the task of spreading awareness about the products to Indian consumers. It had to ensure that its products were of high-quality, and at the same time, properly priced.

As there were no guidelines for their sale, Lingel found it challenging to sell the premium products. Later on, with the introduction of certain guidelines

by UWDMA, the situation became more favourable for the company. Fastforward 15 years, Lingel has grown into a multimillion-dollar giant in the Indian fenestration sphere. It has not only gained the unequivocal trust of Indian customers but also managed to outmatch several eminent brands in the industry.

Each day is a learning experience, replete with opportunities to create strong connections with customers. The constant movement in the process keeps him looking forward toward better and greater things.

Lingel’s Awards and Recognitions

Over the years, Lingel has built a solid reputation owing to its numerous successful projects at the pan-India level. It has also received prestigious industry awards like Zak awards and the Design Wall award. Most of its media publicity is generated organically, thanks to the great influence it has in the fenestration market. It has been featured in all the top business publications of the country.

The Brand’s Plans for The Future

The brand has recently introduced Security Windows, which provide customers the perfect glazing and hardware solution. It will soon be introducing Aluminium slim windows and Titanium windows as well.

In the coming years, the brand is planning to expand its dealer network in India. It will also be opening more showrooms throughout the country. One major goal of the company is to hit the 100-crore revenue mark with all Lingel members.

Mr. Mario’s Advice to Aspiring Entrepreneurs

Being an indefatigable proponent of hard work and perseverant effort, Mr. Mario urges all young entrepreneurs to go all in on their dreams. Here’s what he has to say: “Stay focused, gain more knowledge and keep aspiring for your goal.

Here’s his message: “Don’t run in the corporate rate race. Even if you win, you’ll just be a rat. Take up an idea and make that idea the purpose of your life. Create an impact, don’t just make bucks. Leave a legacy behind. Also, be okay with being lonely. Learn to romance with risks that you can handle by yourself. You either disrupt or get disrupted. Go after your dreams with all you’ve got! After all, you only have one life.”

Mark Elliot Zuckerberg Founder and CEO of Facebook

Mark Zuckerberg’s Inspiring Journey to Success every Entrepreneur must know about

W

e all have an entrepreneur within us that awakens when we read inspiring tales of great professionals. Success stories stimulate the motivational enzyme within us, filling our souls with renewed vigour and courage. One such awe-spiring success story is that of Facebook’s Founder & CEO, Mark Zuckerberg.

From sitting in a dormitory room in Harvard University to becoming the owner of the most popular social networking website, Mark Zuckerberg’s story is a testament of the power of resilience. Facebook, founded by Mark Zuckerberg in 2004 at the age of 19, has placed him as one of the world’s most influential entrepreneurs, with a strong influence on the lives of people. With a user base of a whooping 250 million users, Facebook has become a household name for netizens across the globe.

How it all began

Mark Zuckerberg’s interest in computing started at the age of 12 when he set up a messenger software called ‘Zucknet’.This software allowed his father and family to connect with ease. He also developed video games for playing with his friends.

In high school, he developed an early version of the music app Pandora, which he renamed as ‘Synapse’. This evoked the attention of a variety of corporations such as AOL and Microsoft.

Facebook, which ran out of the Harvard dorm until June 2004, allowed people to create accounts, post images, and interact with other users. So huge was the reaction to this site that by the end of 2004 it had 1 million users and Zuckerberg dropped out of college to dedicate himself solely to developing Facebook. He also went ahead and moved the business to Pao Alto, California.

A Man Who wears Many Hats

Facebook’s growth has made Zuckerberg, the president, chief executive officer, and co-founder of Facebook, the 5th richest man in the world with a net worth of US$58.6 billion. In 2010, the prestigious TIME magazine called him Person of the Year 2010, saying that “the social network produced by Mark has linked almost every tenth person on the globe.”

This is the strength of the network he has built. Mark himself once stated, “Today, Facebook is the third largest county in the world that knows about its citizens as much as no government on planet does.”

Mark’s clever acquisitions of Instagram, Oculus Rift, and Whatsapp have consolidated Facebook’s position in the industry.

Altruistic Initiatives

A philanthropist by nature, Mark also has a strong interest in fields such as education, technology advancement, economic growth, immigration reform, wellness. Together with his wife Priscilla Chan, whom he married on 19 May 2012, he has pledged 99 per cent of their Facebook shares, worth around $45 billion through the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative.

Today, Zuckerberg owns more than a fifth of Facebook’s shares and holds 57% of the voting shares. He has effectively built a valuable and diverse brand that is changing over time, introducing improvements based on customer input, and adding new functionality to keep users hooked to the networking platform. From being an ordinary Harvard student to becoming the fifth richest man in the world, Mark Zuckerberg’s story is no less than an inspiration to aspiring entrepreneurs across the globe.

5 benefits to getting featured in a large publication

I

t’s often an excitement to get your name seen for the first time on a large publication. As one of our articles gets published on the web i.e. it goes live, we start anticipating all the good things that come along with it.

Getting one’s creativity published by a large media outlet, it is a relief that finally one’s hard work has paid off. Here are 5 benefits to getting featured in a large publication:

Opportunity of securing more readers, which in turn fetches more clients

A large publication has itself got many readers. When a lot of work is visible, more readers can learn about what needs to be done. While some become true followers, the others actually become clients. Instead of posting an article on a small niche, a large publication can bring down popularity to 100 times. There are 2 instances on this. Firstly, the topic on which we write must go in parallel accordance with the publication. Secondly, a larger publication does not always bring better results i.e. a piece of article may not be heavily promoted. Hence, one should aim to contribute to a site at least a few more times to get better results.

Getting instant credibility

In the world of the internet, the most difficult thing to acquire is trust. So, in order to build instant credibility, one must know who or what they are getting associated with. Contributing to large publications means that the work that has been submitted has been secured by authority sources. When people look up for one’s name or one’s company, they can only recognize the sites associated with publications with high viewership and more email subscribers. For instance, the articles listed on Forbes or Entrepreneur show up at every random search roving that the matter or the content has been considered much seriously. As an added advantage, one can mention on his site and profiles where they have been featured to provide credibility.

Establishing network chains with other entrepreneurs

When an article of a writer gets featured on a high demanding site, more organizations are likely to find and get connected with him. Companies that work with a smooth parity between their services and audiences, often reach out to set up partnerships. With this comes offers for paid opportunities such as writing, collaboration or consulting. As soon as one gets connected and contacted by various companies, the collaboration becomes smoother. For instance, nowadays, people often use Focuster as a focus management tool that aids freelancers and entrepreneurs to stay at the zenith of their work. Freelancers, entrepreneurs and content creators keep reaching out to other clients to widen their content network.

Through this, they also exchange ideas on overcoming obstacles, boosting growth and working as a team. Although, these aren’t paid opportunities, sharing knowledge and linking support with others is rewarding.

46

Gaining valuable experiences from the publication process

When one contributes to a large publication, they often get an opportunity to work with professional editors who provide valuable feedback. There are certain experiences and skills that every publication owns no matter from whatever platform they execute. One must learn to understand what kind of articles and topics resonate with anticipating readers. One can also test out their upcoming ideas on a large scale and see the response from the audience. In this process, a lot of knowledge by publishing on a large publication is acquired especially in editing and writing. These can be further applied anywhere else.

Getting featured on varied publications very easily

Once you get featured on a large publication, getting featured on similar other platforms becomes quite smooth. This is because when one renowned publication accepts the work, it can be further deferred to other large publications. This will also enhance the writer to work for huge sites and get more comfortable with various editors. There is another benefit called syndication. Large publications make partnerships with other sites to pick up articles originally posted in some other place.

No matter at what level of writing, the writer is, there will also be some reasons for getting worth by featuring on large publications. Although the results may be awry quite a time, the journey will be fruitful.
