What inspired you to build the above product/ service?
Getting a digital agency that designs, developments, creates strategies, does effectively digital marketing, and is a digital innovator is a larger challenge. Finding a good designer isn’t that difficult. Neither is finding a developer capable of coding complex sites. Discovering a digital agency that is efficient in digital marketing always seems to be hit or miss.
Most digital agencies aren’t really full-service digital marketing agencies at all, they are web design companies that realize the need to offer digital marketing services such as (on the elementary level) SEO, SEM, social media setup and management, and that’s about it. You’ll see these types of services on just about every web design company’s site. They all offer some sort of SEO, SEM, etc. Does that mean that they really know those services and how to leverage them most effectively…NO? Digital marketing is an area in which most web design companies are not specialists. They would rather create a cool looking website for you, a host that site, and perform monthly maintenance or updates. The digital marketing end of the business isn’t their sweet spot. The truth is that most digital agencies actually outsource marketing initiatives to true marketing professionals. Those people might be part of a traditional marketing agency or independent contractors. Either way, the expertise is obtained somewhere else.
In our digital world of social media, email blasts, and other online marketing tools, it’s easy to throw strategies at the wall and see what sticks. But developing integrated, measurable, and impactful campaigns can be a little trickier – and that’s where Techsters – A simply powerful digital marketing agency comes in.
What is your life mantra?
All you have is one Life, make the best out of it for you and others
What was the most challenging part of your journey till now?
Undoubtedly, the best part of starting out on my own is the ability to impact our clients and their businesses. We are partners in growing their business and this makes it exciting for us as we need to continuously surpass their expectations.
As we scale up the venture, the greatest challenge will be to outperform the growth while simultaneously ensuring the quality of solutions, along with knowledge sharing and training our team members. In a market like India, growth is bound to happen and we must capitalise.
According to you, what are the three qualities an individual must have to achieve success?
Adaptability
In most cases, what you start out to do will not be exactly what you’re doing when you are ultimately successful. As you roll out your enterprise, you’ll discover that things you expected to work well don’t work at all. You’ll stumble into things that you didn’t expect to work that will. You’ll see others in your industry doing things that will work well for your organization and you’ll copy them. You’ll have to be able to adapt.
Persistence
Inevitably, you will encounter bumps in the road. You’ll lose big customers. Good employees will leave your company, and some may become competitors. The government will change regulations, usually making things more complex. To succeed, you will have to be willing to persist through difficult times. Nothing can take the place of persistence and you can’t succeed without it.
Work ethic
The third necessary skill is the ability and the willingness to work very, very hard. Running a small business is difficult. Your days will be much longer than eight hours. If your week starts on Monday, you’ll pass 40 hours on Thursday, but you won’t slow down. You’ll be on call 24/7. Success as an entrepreneur requires hard, hard work.

The ability to say NO
Given that we have a finite amount of time and energy, learning when to say no will help you spend the maximal amount of both of these precious resources on activities that will help you get ahead. It will help you block out everyday distractions, keep you on track to reach your real goals, and help you develop the skills most important for your work.
