What is the success story of your startup in your own words?
To start a business you don’t need money, you need passion, that’s what I learned from my journey.I started my business with just INR 3,000 in my pocket and passion for doing. And this passion helped me to have my Own IT company and HR company along with Handmade business. I was not at all supported by my parents as I was a girl but my attitude doesn’t allowed me to go back. Being a girl I faced many problems from family, investments, society. Till now also society doesn’t have that broad mind to accept alone girl as CEO.
My parents want to get married and then do whatever I want. There was a saying “Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow know what you truly want to become” – Steve Jobs.
My aim is different and I have to achieve it. I started Adaugeo in 2016 all alone, which is an IT and HR comapny and within an year I was recognized in “Top 25 Women Entrepreneur” in Jaipur by TIE Rajasthan. And after this technical dreams I though to follow my hobby that is Handmade gifts which I use to make just for my close ones. But, there is saying “Only true people are with you rest leaves you “so I was all alone again, had a bad breakup. I was broken again and that breakup taught me to live my life for me.
As handmade gift is my hobby and I know I can give smile to anyone’s face so then I started with another venture ‘HandyMady’ which helps broken hearts to get back again as I know what pain is and I dont want someone to be in pain.
I remember the first day I started and I got the first client. It was a positive sign that my gifts will make someone happy and from there my journey of HandyMady started. Within 1 year duration we went to International level, and everyone is loving our gifts.
Now I am also the Ambassador of ‘Nanhi Kali’.And all this I achieved alone.
Thanks Bhawana. Best of luck!
