A DEDICATED ENTREPRENEUR'S THIRST FOR SUCCESS
A DEDICATED ENTREPRENEUR'S THIRST FOR SUCCESS
${image_1} Mr. Sathya Shankar – Managing Director It’s not every day that we come across humble brands taking on global giants and making their presence felt in the industry. Born out of a lesser known town, Narimogeru in Puttur taluk, Bindu Fizz Jeera Masala is today competing for shelf space with global giants. The story behind Bindu Fizz Jeera Masala, a refreshing Indian ethnic drink, is indeed an inspirational one. Through sheer determination, undeterred faith and battling various odds, a man from a small town began this venture, with the sole aim to accomplish success and offer employment opportunities to those around him. Leading from the front, Mr. Sathya Shankar’s business optimism and competitive spirit and relentless pursuit of success, has enabled his business to surge forward. Born in Bellare village near Puttur in an agricultural family, he studied till PUC before business aspirations consumed him. He first purchased a single autorickshaw through a bank loan. He worked hard with full dedication to close the loan and sold the autorickshaw, so he could climb the next step to buy a diesel Ambassador. It wasn’t long before the car made way for an automobile spare parts dealership, which was started in Puttur in 1987. His efforts didn’t end there. People who came to buy spares started to ask for tyres and request for credit. This inspired his following ventures which were a tyre dealership and an automobile finance company. In 1994, he started a company for second-hand vehicle finance, as he realized that there was a demand for second-hand vehicles. Mr. Sathya Shankar was slowly but surely on the path to success. Although business was good, he did not see enough opportunity to grow. In the year 2000, he decided to establish a manufacturing unit. Mr. Sathya Shankar decided to capitalize on a water source in his 50-acre farm. The water from the stream was tested and was found to be pure enough to be bottled. With that, he began a packaged drinking water brand. After two successful years, on a trip to north India, Mr. Sathya Shankar chanced upon the idea to create an unconventional carbonated drink. He launched Bindu Fizz Jeera Masala, a soft drink with unique Indian taste to appeal to the local palate. ${image_2} The brand met with a struggle in the initial years and 50% of stocks were returned from the market, as the drink was unfamiliar to consumers. The company was not able to advertise as they did not have enough funds. When the shopkeepers said that everyone was used to only orange and cola beverages and unwilling to try anything else, the team had to coerce the shoppers to try to drink for free. However, once news of the taste and quality of Bindu Fizz Jeera Masala spread by word of mouth, it was soon among the best beverage brands in the market. The company decided to package the product in PET bottles as PET bottles are easy to handle. In the case of glass bottles, the customer had to drink the beverage in the shop and return the bottle, but in the case of PET bottles, they could carry it home and refrigerate it. Implementing packaging in good quality pet bottles ensured convenience for users. The Shankar Group takes pride in implementing GST into their system. The company feels that GST is the best taxation system, as prior to it they were not able to get any input tax from other states. They needed to submit the C form and adhere to a very complex structure was as there was a different tax for every different state. Some states had octroi, entry tax, a local tax, and other aspects. Under GST all of India has the same tax structure which ensures the ease of doing business. The company’s work of doing different pricing for different states is reduced, taxation has become easy and simple and they also get the benefit of input tax from all the states. ${image_3} While a fruit drink was added to the portfolio in 2005, the company also diversified into the snack food sector with potato wafers in 2009. Beginning with very less turnover in 2001, the organization grew to a turnover of few crores by 2005. While the 100-crore turnover mark intimidates many, Mr. Sathya Shankar took it as a challenge. The company is today having a turnover of around Rs. 400 crores. Mr. Sathya Shankar aims to reach a turnover of 1000 crores with strategic decisions to widen their market and setting up new plants across India. Mr. Sathya Shankar’s secret to success is that he believes in life one must think through the work that they want to begin and then give it their full attention. While they may be faced with failure sometimes, they must not deviate and must continue to be focused.

Brand Capital ScaleUp : Pacing Up The FMCG StartUps Space
Brand Capital ScaleUp : Pacing Up The FMCG StartUps Space
Where 'fast' and 'moving' are essential parts of the sector nomenclature, can a forward-thinking business fuel such as Brand Capital be far behind? With the Indian economy poised to triple consumption by 2025, riding on a vibrant FMCG sector composed mainly of food businesses, there is massive action, high growth opportunities and leaping potential in the fast moving consumer goods category. While established brands are adapting speedily to a changing consumerscape, new and ambitious startups face challenges ranging from how to win the big game to how to effectively impact niche play, Having mentored over 180 companies since 2014, Brand Capital, the strategic investment arm of The Times Group, hosted a closed door Scale Up activation for growing businesses in the FMCG sector recently in Gurugram. Budding entrepreneurs met industry veterans who shared category insights and actionable ideas on how to make a mark in this dynamic sector. Mentee Companies Mainly from F&B and Wellness segment accounting for more than a quarter of the Indian FMCG sector. Each company had their own unique product and propositions; and thus challenges faced were equally distinct. Clensta (makes waterless personal hygiene solution) focused on right partnerships and building proper distribution network. Oddy Uniwraps (produces recyclable, safe food wrapping paper that can be used to reheat food in ovens) focused on brand awareness and BTL engagement. Teafloor (produces online tea store with customised range of tea varieties) focused on the threat of competition and easy accessibility to substitutes. To-Be-Healthy (TBH) (manufactures delicious, premium and nutritious snacks) focused on tackling high cost of raw materials, credit lending and sales efficiency. Whyte Farms (delivers fresh and natural milk straight from farm to homes) focused on optimizing sourcing and faster market penetration. Mentors The panel of mentors included Ashwani Arora, Managing Director, LT Foods Ltd., one of India's leading rice brands; Ajay Batra, Founding Director, Center for Innovation and Entrepreneurship & Bennett Hatchery, Bennett University; Aseem Soni, CEO, Modern Foods with 25 years of business experience; Sharad Saluja, Director, Sterling Agro Industries Limited, a business engaged in the manufacturing and sales of all kinds of dairy products; Pranav Gupta, Vice President, Carpediem Capital - a PE fund focused on the India consumption opportunity; Sona Mazumdar, Chief Partnership Officer, KidZania, and Kshitij Torka, Vice President, Grofers. Success Mantras For FMCG StartUps: Grab It Before It Goes - The "attention economy" is limited. One has to grab the attention that someone else has today. Jo Dikhta Hai Woh Bikta Hai - Marketing and positioning is as important as the product itself. Know Your Consumer - Advertising and promotional campaigns should be crafted with the audience in mind and the channel used. It is crucial to highlight the personality of the product. Always Be Connecting - While building brand loyalty is necessary, the campaign should always evoke emotions and imply connection between product and goal. Judging The Book By The Cover - The best way of captivating consumers and standing out is to have unique yet informative package design. This is the first thing a consumer sees, and therefore, is as important as what it contains. Niche Needs - Niche products are relevant as long as it understands where its audience is. This might require understanding the mind of the consumers through focused group discussions and qualitative analysis. Lose The Battles, Win The War - Start-ups have limited time and resources. And companies must focus on core competencies and outsource activities like distribution and supply chain. Brand Capital is the strategic investment arm of The Times Group, with a portfolio of over 3 billion dollars. As a key player in the investing ecosystem, Brand Capital ' Scale Up connects ambitious entrepreneurs to industry experts who provide closed-door mentoring in areas such as business strategy, branding, distribution, finance and funding.

Discover The Celebrity Love Affair With Their Homes: Asian Paints Where the Heart Is
Discover The Celebrity Love Affair With Their Homes: Asian Paints Where the Heart Is
${image_1} There's a reason why our homes are so much more than just brick and mortar structures. Whether that’s the colour of the walls, a memory corner with precious photographs, a quiet space to read, or a balcony to sit and watch the world go by; a home truly is a part of the soul, a physical manifestation of people’s innermost dreams and desires. And that’s exactly what comes through so beautifully in this third offering of Asian Paints Where The Heart Is. ${image_2} The last two seasons of this web series had some of the most unique and quirky Indian celebrities giving us a glimpse into their beautiful homes; whether that was critically acclaimed actor Radhika Apte, ace director Zoya Akhtar or cricketer Saurav Ganguly. The third season once again brings a diverse mix of celebrities but with a slight difference; the focus this time is on relationships and how they’re reflected in a home. ${image_3} One of the best episodes in the show is the one showcasing Boman Irani’s home in Mumbai, a modern building located amidst the old-world Parsi charm. Irani talks about how he stretched himself to buy his dream home, back in the days when Munnabhai was still in the works. What makes the episode particularly beautiful is that every corner of the home reflects the pride and joy he takes in his family; whether that’s the common seating area, the wall with their favourite travel memories, or every single piece of home decor that him and his wife Zenobia have picked out after lots of discussions and the occasional disagreement. ${image_4} Another unique episode features actor Huma Qureshi and her brother Saqib Saeed, who share a home in Mumbai. In an age where most siblings choose to stay separately even when they’re in the same city, the fact that Huma and Saqib have built a home together speaks volumes about their relationship. And that love, and warmth are reflected in every corner of their home, especially the wonderful balcony which is flooded with light and greenery. ${image_5} Other episodes are just as compelling. There’s the home of media personality Gaurav Kapur with wife Kirat Bhattal; which is such a fascinating mix of their unique and eclectic personalities. There’s also the dynamic mother-daughter duo of Masaba and Neena Gupta; whose daring and unconventional choices are reflected in their minimalistic decor and unique artifacts. Finally, one of the most interesting episodes in this series is one that you’d least expect. Football captain Sunil Chhetri opens the doors to his Bengaluru home and you can see the love and passion that his wife Sonam Bhattacharya has put into every single corner. ${image_6} The show is shot beautifully and is a great juxtaposition of the physical aspects of the home, and the emotional stories behind them. Each episode is just 8-10 minutes long, leaving you with a warm tingling feeling at the end, even as you yearn to stay with each home just a little while longer. While we do get to see many aspects of celebrity homes, this season is really about seeing these celebrities in their comfort zone, with the people they’ve chosen to build a life with. From the “har ghar kuch kehta hai” days, Asian Paints has always believed that a home speaks volumes about those who inhabit it. Commenting on the show’s third season, Asian Paints’ COO, Amit Syngle remarked, “Asian Paints Where The Heart Is really found acceptance in the past two seasons and we’re very proud to be showcasing 6 incredible homes this season. This season is all about relationships and how they get reflected in the homes people build together. At Asian Paints, we've always believed in the magic of a home and we're so glad that we can bring some of this magic to our audiences through this show.”

MTR Foods – The Journey of Innovation
MTR Foods – The Journey of Innovation
It is no secret that packaged foods is a concept that is built on a deep understanding of consumer insight and a constant requirement of innovation. From the packet of chips that we so readily dig into, to the jams that are liberally applied on rotis and breads across households, convenience foods has taken on a significant avatar to the consumer. MTR is no stranger to how an insightful packaged product can change a consumers and manufacturers life. In the 1970a€™s we had to shut down our iconic restaurant for a short duration and realised the role packaged foods can play, to keep up our operations. The need to stay alive coupled with the demand from consumers for our loved products, gave birth to our packaged foods business. From there came our vision a€“ to be an indispensible companion in every kitchen to help create authentic and delicious Indian food. The consumer of today is vastly different from that of a few years ago a€“ technology has taken over our lives a€“ making it simpler and more complicated at the same time. Our target consumers do not have the time, technical know-how and sometimes even the inclination to make food from scratch a€“ specifically Indian food that is perceived as cumbersome, heavy and time-consuming. We need quick solutions to our food dilemmas a€“ similar to what we look towards technology for. Food plays an emotional role in our lives, but with the advent of this fast-paced life, we dona€™t have the patience to wait for it. With a click of button, great tasting food should reach our doorstep, ready to consume! This is where the heavy dependence on innovation comes into play. No other industry studies the consumer as deeply as the packaged foods one. At every step of a consumers food journey, from the time they need quick meal solutions for extremely busy weekdays to their desire for comfort home-food on lazy weekends, companies like MTR need to be the consumera€™s provider. MTR has always studied, gained extensive insight and stayed ahead of the dynamic consumption patterns that dominate the landscape now. We conduct in-depth research on food cultures and sub cultures, ongoing trends in the industry, varying cuisines in different parts of the nation, diverse taste preferences of people and consumer requirements. The recently launched 3-Minute Breakfast Range is a great example of an innovation based on deep consumer insight. The Breakfast range is a result of reams of studies and observation, wherein it clearly showed the importance of eating breakfast. However, hectic lifestyles and increasing time-poverty have led to an increasing trend of youth skipping this meal altogether. Yet, if the time dimension and cooking-knowledge are taken out of the equation, the Indian consumer is sure to choose an Indian breakfast to a western one. Another innovation that has taken center stage in kitchens across India has been Spicy Sambar Powder. MTR Spicy Sambar Powder is the result of extensive consumer research with close to a thousand consumers and an in-depth cuisine study done in the state. The study threw up some interesting insights such as the distinct tastes of sambar made in the same home according to the palate of the consumer, meal occasions and the central dish i.e. what dish would the sambar be accompanying. MTRa€™s new Spicy Sambar is targeted at home-makers who are always looking at delighting their family members by providing the best home-made food through breakfast, lunch and dinner and the perfect Sambar to go with it. While the classic variant has always been popular, there is a clear need for a spicy variant so as to cater to a wider usage opportunity. With constant innovations like these, MTR Foods has understood Indian dishes and the authentic recipes. However, we do face one challenge on the consumer front - adoption. Consumers resist change in familiar formats. So while they will experiment with cuisines, changes in their favorite Indian food are harder to get accepted. To combat this, our products are evolved only on truly authentic Indian recipes that can disrupt the daily consumption habits of consumers. These products represent the practice of great taste and quality, they are identifiably from their region of origin and packaged in innovative and convenient formats that make our consumers lives easier. MTR has constantly strived to preserve the vast culinary culture and subculture of India and hence the culinary secrets are protected and handed down over the generations. MTR's journey to being India's leading processed food company will continue to be marked by a constant focus on innovation and the adoption of new technology.

'Eat Good, Eat Exciting' with Faasos and Brand Capital
'Eat Good, Eat Exciting' with Faasos and Brand Capital
The entry of technology and mobile application-based services has led to a massive transformation in how the food industry operates. With consumer demographics comprising young and urban professionals, FoodTech has been amongst the most promising sectors within the Indian startup ecosystem.Segments like box delivery and on-demand meals are becoming increasingly popular, leading to an unprecedented number of startups joining the race for market share. In this vast scope of venture opportunities, Brand Capital provides marketing and advertising leverage to startups that have the potential to make it big through its branding prism. One such startup that has flourished with Brand Capital's advertising strategies is Faasos - India's leading Food-tech company. Faasos was started by Jaydeep Barman and Kallol Banerjee in 2011 with the vision of being an Indian Quick Service Restaurant (QSR) brand. The company quickly expanded to multicity operations and grew to over 50 stores in the next few years. However, the challenges that the availability of retail infrastructure posed on a pure retail play was soon evident. In mid-2014, Faasos conducted a survey among its users to understand two things: awareness of the brand and whether the full-stack model was working. The survey results proved to be an eye-opener: over 76% of the respondents had never 'seen' a Faasos store, but still ordered food from it. The company embraced technology to move to "online only" demand play. This effectively meant that the company could avoid costly rentals in high footfall areas and instead operate out of dark kitchens (100% delivery orders) located anywhere in a catchment. Two new markets Hyderabad and NCR were launched without a single visible outlet. The success proved the model beyond doubt. The advent of ordering apps, however, posed the next challenge. How to be relevant for more and more food ordering missions of the customer. This lead to a key insight and the next stage of the evolution of the company. The company started experimenting with multiple brands operating out of the same kitchen and hence riding on the same supply chain and technology stack. Today the opening of a Faasos kitchen in a locality is equivalent to opening 8 new restaurants offering different cuisines. The branding made sure that they catered to different food missions as far as the consumer was concerned. Startups have risen and fallen due to weak branding and marketing strategies. And sure enough, Faasos dealt with a few of its own challenges. It was during this time the co-founders decided to partner with Brand Capital, the strategic investment arm of the Times Group, to establish an effective & sustainable branding strategy. Brand Capital decided to build on these strengths and focused on building a strong customer relationship in Tier 1 & 2 cities. They helped Faasos reach their potential target audience across India. Faasos launched their app in July 2014 and delivered this message using print media properties such as the main edition of Times of India. This created the required buzz and Faasos scaled up to unimaginable heights! Today, the company, which had six outlets in Pune in 2011, is present in 15 cities and services 30,000+ orders every day across India. 95% of their orders are received via their mobile application. Faasos has come a long way since its inception but has always stuck by their brand agenda - 'Eat Good, Eat Exciting!' It has been almost 7 years since Jaydeep Barman co-founded Faasos with Kallol Banerjee. Being in this space for over a decade, Jaydeep speaks from experience and shares the following key points for young entrepreneurs wanting to build a QSR or a food-tech startup: Entrepreneurship is, in essence, a form of protest against status quo. Be very clear what form of protest it is. A statement ( a small and personally supervised operation) or a movement ( which will involve relying on other people's judgment). Choose what you want to inspect very carefully because only what you inspect will improve and innovate. Try to solve problems at its causal level and through technology. More people and more money will only postpone the inevitable. Remind yourself every day that people generally come to work with the intention of achieving something worthwhile. Build the enabling environment. To know more about Brand Capital, visit here / Follow on LinkedIn and Twitter.

It was our goal to create a narrative of personal relevance and worth for viewers, with the people’s captain as the perfect example of what an individual can accomplish. Not through swagger, but belief, everyday action and sheer will. Every aspect of the film, from music, casting, choice of words and imagery, was a deliberate choice to connect the brand and those who will feel empowered by it.” ${image_4} ‘The Spirit of Man’ campaign is being rolled out across a 360 degree media campaign including Print, TV, Cinema & multiple Social & Digital platforms.

Numero Uno endorses boldness with its DEN I'M campaign
Numero Uno endorses boldness with its DEN I'M campaign
${image_1} Numero Uno, India’s first indigenously manufactured denim brand, has taken influential steps to ace the ‘I Am Who I Am, Unapologetically’ campaign wherein boldness and expressiveness is celebrated. The think-tanks of the leading apparel brand claim that denims itself manifest prodigious amount of courage and progression which makes ‘IM’ i.e. ‘I’m’ an inextricable element of Denims. Numero Uno advocates the notion that the most remarkable feature of denims is that they possess a unique value for each person. A denim might symbolise confidence and independence for one, whereas it may symbolise vogue with comfort for the other. Numero Uno aspires to accord the fearlessness to everyone who is scuffling with their own feelings and desires in their minds. The very captivating DEN I’M campaign led by the brand stimulates each such suppressor to become dauntless and rebel to bring a change in the disturbing and muddled status quo. As a plan of action for realising its objectives of an activated and self-satisfied youth who lives on the basis of individualistic ideologies rather than on societal dictations, Numero Uno has brought a wide range of denim trends which are a fusion of international trends, innovative fabrics, effortless washing techniques at accessible prices. With 400-500 new styles in a span of every 3 months paves the way for wider participation in the campaign. ${image_2} It is a settled fact that with modern dynamics and enlarging wants, the ordinary denims would not do justice to the enormous latent strength and passion scuttling inside people. Extraordinary and distinctive designs like scribbled embroidery, feminist art, upcycling, etc. are the needs of the hour in order to release the concealed personality of human beings out of the shackles of the society, to finally let them be themselves. The competitive advantage offered by NU is its focus on the perfect fit for each body type with immensely cost-effective pricing so that the benefits accruing from the DEN I’M campaign can be accessed by a major segment of the society, especially the youth. Numero Uno intends to constantly cheer the people who wish to stand apart from the crowd by creating a distinct identity of themselves. As a medium to such accomplishment, the extensive range of denim trends offered by NU shall certainly urge all the youth and middle-ages to confront and combat all the challenges in life to attain what is actually entitled to them. The DEN I’M campaign envisages the adoration of the essence of individuality while paying no regard to social expectations or dictations as a means to living life boldly on one’s own terms and conditions.

ब्यूटी सीक्रिट्स से आप भी पा सकती हैं ग्लोइंग स्किन
ब्यूटी सीक्रिट्स से आप भी पा सकती हैं ग्लोइंग स्किन
अगर सिलेब्रिटीज़ को देखकर आप भी यह सोचती हैं कि काश आपकी स्किन भी उनकी तरह फ्लॉलेस और ग्लोइंग होती तो आपका यह सपना सच हो सकता है और आपको इसके लिए महंगे ब्यूटी प्रॉडक्ट्स इस्तेमाल करने की जरूरत नहीं है। सिर्फ कुछ घरेलू नुस्खों को आजमाकर आप भी स्किन की हर तरह की प्रॉब्लम्स से छुटकारा पा सकती हैं...  लिप बाम की जगह शहद यूज करें  फेसपैक में मॉइश्चराइजर के तौर पर तो शहद का काफी इस्तेमाल होता है लेकिन होंठों को सॉफ्ट बनाने के लिए लिप बाम के तौर पर इसका कम ही इस्तेमाल होता है। आपको यकीन नहीं होगा कि फटे होंठों के लिए भी शहद नैचरल मॉइश्चराइजर का काम करता है। शहद, लिप्स के डेड सेल्स को दूर कर लिप्स को हाईड्रेट करता है। आप शहद को सीधे भी होंठों पर लगा सकती हैं या फिर चाहें तो आमंड ऑइल या ऑलिव ऑइल की कुछ बूंदें मिलाकर भी लगा सकती हैं।  पानी में ऐपल साइडर विनिगर मिलाकर पिएं  आपने लोगों को सुबह उठते के साथ गुनगुने पानी में शहद और नींबू का रस मिलाकर पीते तो देखा होगा लेकिन इस नुस्खे से भी ज्यादा प्रभावशाली है गुनगुने पानी में ऐपल साइडर विनिगर मिलाकर पीना। दरअसल, ज्यादातर स्किन प्रॉब्लम्स डाइजेशन से जुड़ी होती हैं। ऐसे में यह नुस्खा आपकी स्किन को बाहर से नहीं बल्कि अंदर से भी साफ और स्वच्छ रखेगा। अगर आपके चेहरे पर कील-मुंहासे हैं तो आप इसे सीधे अपने चेहरे पर भी लगा सकती हैं।  बर्फ से करें मसाज अगर आपकी स्किन सेंसेटिव है और आप सनबर्न या ओपन पोर्स की समस्या से परेशान हैं तो आईस क्यूब्स आपके काम आ सकता है। चेहरे पर आईस क्यूब्स से मसाज करने से ब्ल्ड सर्क्युलेशन बेहतर होता है और कील-मुंहासे भी ठीक हो जाते हैं। साथ ही अगर आपकी आंखें थकी-थकी सी लग रही हैं तो आंखों पर भी आईस क्यूब्स से मसाज करें आराम मिलेगा। हालांकि बर्फ को सीधे स्किन पर लगाने की बजाए उसे किसी टीशू पेपर या मलमल के कपड़े में लपेटकर इस्तेमाल करें।  होममेड फेसपैक्स का करें इस्तेमाल  ग्लोइंग स्किन की केयर करने के सारे नुस्खे आपके किचन में मौजूद हैं। लिहाजा आप चाहें तो केमिकल बेस्ड फेसपैक्स की जगह अपनी स्किन टाइप के हिसाब से घर पर ही फेसपैक तैयार करें और उसे अपने चेहरे पर लगाएं। इनमें सबसे अच्छा है दही से बना फेसपैक जो आपकी स्किन को हाईड्रेट रखने के साथ ही स्मूथ भी बनाता है।

How sibling established a successful online fashion store – StyleCaret
How sibling established a successful online fashion store – StyleCaret
${image_1} Starting an online fashion business is not easy. The number of stores existing on the platform sometimes intimidates potential entrepreneurs. Without a well thought out plan, it becomes impossible to run a successful online store. Akhilesh Singh & Neekee Singh are siblings and the founders of an online fashion store known as StyleCaret. They were not only successful in establishing an online fashion store but also took it to greater heights. Before they established StyleCaret, both had to do a lot of planning. They created a fashion blog earlier called fashionbuzzer to learn more about fashion. They had to think about their target audience first. In establishing an online fashion store, you have to identify where you expect traffic to come from. This has a significant impact on each decision you make as you proceed. The fashion industry is saturated with people trying their best to gain more customers online. This was one of the things that the founders of StyleCaret noted as they were thinking of their start-up. Instead of letting fear get to them, both started thinking of differentiation. For you to run an online store, you have to ask yourself why the audience should order products from your store rather than your competitors. Akhilesh Singh and Neekee Singh started thinking of ways to make StyleCaret stand out in the industry. They could achieve this by delivering high-quality products as well as services. Shipping is also a crucial consideration in establishing an online fashion store. The founders of StyleCaret understood this clearly. They knew that for them to be different from their rivals, they have to do things differently. Customers love shipping services that come at a low cost or no cost. That is what you get from buying garments from Style Caret. The lack of such options often leads to shopping cart abandonment. This is a problem that some online business owners face. It makes it hard for one to gain and retain loyal customers. Apart from that, they had to think about creating a reasonable return policy. They understood that not every transaction goes through as expected. That is why in the return policy, they included a clause on free offer returns. This was geared towards making customers feel less inconvenienced if they received faulty items. For you to start an online fashion store, you have to calculate every vital cost, including return costs and shipping. This is what the founders of StyleCaret did. It is essential to make such considerations as you factor the cost into your profit margins. They also had to think about offering their customers promotions from time to time to keep them interested in their products. Sometimes, entrepreneurs experience low demand. This is the best time to provide incentives to customers. If you look at the official website, you will notice some special promotions and discounts that the founders offer to their customers. Launching the website also takes some time. As business-oriented siblings, Akhilesh Singh and Neekee Singh had to learn everything about how to start their online fashion store successfully. They had to use an e-commerce platform such as the Magento buildout. Most online buyers shop for products through their mobile devices. Since the siblings were dedicated to reaching out to numerous prospects, they have to optimize their fashion store for mobile. Creating a mobile responsive website made it easy for them to grow their customer base within a short duration. In the fashion business, the product photography is a crucial consideration to make when starting an online store. Customers like seeing high-quality photos used in an online fashion store. That is what you get when you look at StyleCaret. The founders work with professional photographers who help them capture the best images to display on their site. This, therefore, reduce the bounce rate and keep leads interested. It took time, dedication, and effort for these siblings to get to where they are today, but as they say, it was all worth it.

Make this Diwali memorable… Gift a diamond.
Make this Diwali memorable… Gift a diamond.
${image_1} Diamonds have fascinated us for hundreds of years. These tiny miracles of nature start off as humble coals (or pieces of carbon) that metamorphose into stunning, beautiful, sparkling diamonds. They are formed deep inside the Earth's crust and have been there for over a billion years, which is long before even the dinosaurs roamed on this planet, or any life was formed. Throughout history, diamonds have stood as a symbol of wealth, status, style and glamour. So, what are the virtues of the diamond, that gives it a special status, far above other jewels? We list a few: Indestructible: Diamond has an spirited hardness, and has been known since ancient times as the “Stone of Invincibility,” bringing victory, superior strength, fortitude and courage to its wearer. In fact, the word diamond is derived from the Greek word “adamas” meaning “indestructible” and “diaphanus,” meaning “transparent.” Longevity: Because of their indestructible nature, they are one of the most durable known substances. This unique creation of nature, resilient to outside forces, makes it an everlasting symbol of love. An added advantage because of their exceptional characteristics is that it doesn’t take much effort to keep your diamonds looking new. Their radiance stays on, and are therefore suitable for daily use. Due to their longevity, diamonds are passed down from generation to generation in the families. Strength: One of diamond’s exceptional quality is that it is the hardest of all known substances, and it therefore can only be scratched or cut with only another diamond. It has a special ability to withstand even very high temperatures, acids or other corrosive material, lending it incomparable strength. ${image_2} Unique: Due to their complex characteristics, they cannot be duplicated. Hence, every diamond-soul has its own unique personality, with no two diamonds ever being the same. Each stone, like its owner, is endowed with a personality and character uniquely its own. Enduring Value: Like many precious products, diamond prices too fluctuate. But the fact remains that these sparkling gemstones will retain their value even after years of being worn and enjoyed. Rare: Diamonds are extremely rare. Although new resources for diamonds are being explored and discovered, the supply of these gems remains limited. This is understandable once you learn that more than 250 tons of ore need to be blasted, crushed and processed to yield just one carat of rough diamond. Further, only 20 percent of all rough diamonds are suitable for gem-cutting. If you were to gather together all the diamonds ever polished since the beginning of time, they would fill only one double-decker bus. Brilliance: The brillance of a diamonds comes from a combination of reflection, dispersion, and refraction of light. The famous Persian poet Hafiz had said that, "A rainbow is confined in a diamond forever." The special structure of the diamond allows the white light which goes through it, to break and show a whole spectrum of wavelengths, which looks like a dazzling colourful rainbow. Purity: Ancient Greeks considered diamonds to be the tears of the Gods or of the stars fallen on earth! The diamond begins as a black mass of carbon and changes its characteristics completely, until it becomes transparent. Hence these precious stones are considered to be a symbol of purity and innocence. Don’t the above facts make diamonds an extraordinary gift for your loved ones?

Why should you buy gold this Dhanteras?
Why should you buy gold this Dhanteras?
${image_1} Gold has been a part of Indian culture for eons. Needless to say, it holds deep emotional space in almost every Indian’s heart. In fact, intricate gold jewellery and beads have been excavated from Harappan sites making this obsession an ancient one. Dhanteras, which is observed on the 13th day of the month of Ashwin (of the Hindu lunar calendar), and which will be celebrated on the 25th October this year, is considered as the most auspicious occasion for buying gold. Have you ever wondered why and how the tradition of buying gold started on Dhanteras? Legend says that, once, while on a visit with Lord Vishnu to earth, Goddess Lakshmi did not pay heed to his orders and fell for earthly temptations. Charmed by pretty yellow mustard flowers and juicy sugarcanes in a field, she got so engrossed that she completely forgot Lord Vishnu’s orders. As a punishment, Lord Vishnu asked her to work for 12 years at the fields of the farmer whose flowers and sugarcane she enjoyed. As atonement, Goddess Lakshmi disguised as a labourer, toiled alongside the farmer in his fields every day. The farmer obviously prospered and became wealthy during this time. At the end of 12 years, when Goddess Lakshmi wanted to leave, the farmer refused to let his diligent labourer go, and offered her more wages. Finally, the Goddess of wealth revealed herself, and the farmer was left with no choice. She left with the promise to return every year on the day of Dhanteras. She instructed the farmer to keep the house clean and light earthen lamps on this day every year, so that she can easily be guided to his place. This ritual made the farmer even more prosperous. When the story spread, other people followed suit, thus giving rise to the celebrations of Dhanteras. The ritual of cleaning houses, and lighting lamps outside our homes, to guide the Goddess still continues. And even today on Dhanteras, buying gold jewellery or coins is considered auspicious and lucky, as it falls in with the tradition of welcoming the Goddess into our homes! Over the years it has been observed that the value of gold always appreciates. Also, gold investment has given the best returns, in the current volatile times.

Welcome a cool and fresh summer with the Whirlpool 3D Cool Purafresh Inverter AC
Welcome a cool and fresh summer with the Whirlpool 3D Cool Purafresh Inverter AC
The summers are here and we're already looking for ways to beat the heat. While staying indoors in the air-conditioned comfort of our homes is one way, it usually comes with hefty electricity bills. This is why it is important to choose an air conditioner that not only provides effective cooling with smart features, but is also easy on our pockets. In the recent years, the AC market has been buzzing with a lot of activity. Many high-end technologies have revolutionized the air conditioner. One that really takes it up a notch higher is the built-in air purifier, which has traditionally been a separate product. This has two benefits. It saves space and makes your living area look more aesthetic. Besides, it also helps save the trouble of buying and maintaining an air purifier.  Keeping this in mind, the Whirlpool 3D Cool Purafresh Inverter Air Conditioner is a great purchase, offering superb value for money. Here's what makes it so: • 3D Cool Technology This is a revolutionary attribute that redefines cooling. This technology makes use of three unique air vents placed on three sides of the AC that draw hot air out of the room, giving up to 40%*^ faster cooling. The vents are located on the top and sides of the air conditioner. Coupled with a long air throw of up to 12m* and the ability to cool even at extreme temperatures of up to 55 degrees*, this intelligently designed air conditioner packs a punch. Find more about the 3D Cool AC range by clicking here  • Built-in Air-Purifier  The all-new 3D Cool Purafresh Inverter Air Conditioner comes with a built-in air purifier. With growing pollution levels and cases of respiratory illnesses, an air-purifier is becoming a necessity. While investing in an air-conditioner, one can make the most of it by buying one with a built-in air purifier. The 3D Cool Purafresh Inverter AC can remove PM 0.3 pollutants# at par with the best air-purifiers. In lab conditions, the purifier is effectively able to get rid of 98.6% air-borne pollutants and allergens#.  In winters, the built-in air purifier can be used as a stand-alone device. An air conditioner with a built-in air-purifier can also make your life a lot more convenient, because you won't have to bother with owning, installing and servicing two separate devices. • IntelliSense Inverter Technology     Inverter ACs and their in-built inverter technology have given air conditioning a cost-effective spin. Whirlpool's patented IntelliSense Inverter Technology optimizes the functioning of the compressor on the basis of the temperature set and ambient conditions. This stabilizes energy consumption and gives you the best deal on the cooling as well as the running cost. Optimal functioning leads to a lifetime saving of up to INR 43,000**. This technology also provides additional benefits such as low noise and stabilizer-free operation (150-264V**), which is a major plus point. What's more, the device operates at a low noise level (37 dB) to make for a soothing environment.  In a non-inverter AC, the compressor switches off when it reaches the desired temperature. It gets switched on again once the temperature increases. This leads to higher power consumption. On the other hand, an inverter AC functions constantly, intelligently adjusting to the cooling requirements of the room to maintain optimal temperature. • 6th Sense IntelliComfort Technology Weather conditions in India are extremely hot and humid. The new range of Whirlpool ACs, powered by 6th Sense IntelliComfort Technology, have been designed to make tackling the heat and humidity a thing of the past. The range has been loaded with a smart, intuitive logic chip which ensures that the indoor unit of the AC responds to ambient humidity, i.e. the 'real feel temperature'. This coordinates with the outdoor unit to adjust the temperature and function, delivering up to 27%* energy savings.  Another issue with the older variety of air conditioners is that they don't take humidity into account. Thus, in the middle of the night, the rooms feels freezing cold and very dry. IntelliComfort technology senses the 'real-feel' temperature to provide you the best ambient cooling experience.  The product comes in two varieties: 1 ton and 1.5 ton. The latest cooling technology is able to deliver energy efficiency with a 3-star energy rating. With a 12m long air throw, it gives uniform cooling in every corner of the room. It gets rid of 0.3 PM pollutants and allergens. Built for the tough Indian summers, the product ensures cooling even at a temperature of 55 degree Celsius*.  Design, specifications and features: The indoor unit comes with the following dimensions: 1050 (W) x 320 (H) x 235 (D) mm; Weight - 12 kg The outdoor unit comes with the following dimensions: 780 (W) x 540 (H) x 260 (D) mm; Weight - 30kg The product comes with the following features - power saver mode, comfort sleep mode, summer chill mode, auto-restart, self-diagnosis, self-clean, on-off timer, 2-way air swing The product also comes with a one-year warranty.  Impressed already? Click here to upgrade to Whirlpool 3D Cool Purafresh Air Conditioner and beat the summer heat this year. *Results shown are based on internal lab testing done on select models under specific conditions and may vary depending on the testing conditions. ^Testing against select comparable products of other brands available in this segment. #Results shown are based on internal lab testing done on select models under specific conditions and may vary depending on the testing conditions. Purifying efficiency of PM.03 particulate. **Results shown at unit electricity rate of Rs. 8 at 10 hours per day for a period of 8 months over 7 years, as per BEE recommended master sheet comparing Whirlpool 1.5T 5Star inverter AC to 1.5T 2 Star on-off AC based on 2010 split AC ratings of BEE.

Our lives are always-on, always-connected and TV is a big part of our cultural fabric. So many of our daily watercooler conversations are centred on what we watch - from binging on reality shows to watching live commentary on an election, from cheering our favourite cricket team to rooting for a much-loved contestant of kids singing reality show - families gather to watch and discuss what's happening on the big screen. Our beloved idiot box has been evolving ever since its inception and is not an idiot anymore. It has become smart.  And world's third largest TV brand, TCL, is all set to upgrade India's smart TV market with its newest offering - a TV brand that comes with the most cutting-edge smart products equipped with Android 7.

Multiple smart TV offerings have been launched till date, but none quite provide the level of customisation and convenience that new-age consumers are demanding today. This is where iFFALCON steps into the picture.

Ridaex Tv to fully dominate LED TV sector in India by mid 2018
Ridaex Tv to fully dominate LED TV sector in India by mid 2018
Ridaex is the new brand name that sounds like Chinese, but a Fully Authentic Indian Smart TV  Manufacturing Company that has gained control of the leading front in the field of consumer electronics.  Ridaex Smart Tv's are Android-powered LED Televisions which was launched in 2017 in Bangalore under GotMatter E-commerce platform with the plethora of Indian consumer expectations as it was the one and only Indian made television brand. Under the " Make In India " scheme,  Ridaex Technologies assembled a group of talented engineers and a set of skilled workers did research for 14 months and then pioneered the art of Television manufacturing and thus Ridaex Smart TV built it's manufacturing unit in Rajkot, Gujarat where 93% of its components are being manufactured natively and the rest 7% are being imported from Hong-Kong. Well reputably Ridaex Smart TV's has outreached the expectations of every TV enthusiasts and consumers across the country with its revolutionary design and technologically advanced features. Ridaex is the first Indian consumer electronics manufacturing company to start the most advanced technical support service via TeamViewer, Where a Ridaex engineer sitting right in his office can service your smart tv at home.  Nowadays it is hardly possible/a futile attempt for a new firm or a startup to penetrate into the consumer market which is filled with dominance and lots of tough competition from the leading edge innovators of the television manufacturing industry. None the less/ in spite being a startup Ridaex TV took a daring step forward and launched its Television "Changing the way you see a Tv". Since then, it has gained a lot of trusts and emerged a winner with sales of about 35,000 TV units in about 4 months overtaking Sony and Samsung. Ridaex TV tasted the success just by launching 4 of its variants, 32 inches RE-1320, 42 inches RE-1420, 50 inches RE-1500(FHD TV) and 50 inch RE-1500+ ( Best Selling 4K TV in India 2017) in under 4 months. Ridaex Smart TV outsold the sales of Sony, Samsung, Vu Tv just by launching these 4 variants while the big giants have a whole lot of different TV variants under their belt but still could not reach Ridaex's level of success. GotMatter is planning to launch its 55 and 60 inches variants by the mid of January 2018 and also have plans of launching its curved TVs soon in the future days.     Ridaex TV is gaining a lot of reputation and trust of the consumers as it is cruising through as the top-selling economical SMART TV in India. People start to believe in a product when they get to know the product on which they are investing their wealth does not go in vain and when they get the product as promised a trust is developed and this is the exact kind of trust that every seller expects to have with their consumer. In the beginning, it was very tough even for Ridaex to gain the trust of the consumers but somehow managed with its Android operating system and technologically advanced specifications which are no lesser than any Sony or Samsung TV in comparison except for the size. The Indian consumers were also skeptical about buying the Ridaex TV as it was made in India and people had a blind belief that a product made in India would not be worth buying but Ridaex TV proved it wrong by offering huge offers and cash backs attracting a lot of consumers to give it a try and it ended up being the top 50 inch LED TV of 2017 by selling early 14k 50 inch TVs. People believed Ridaex for offering top class features at the economical price and Ridaex cultivated a thought in people's head, "why? Spending so much on a TV when you are getting the same kind of TV at a very lower price".
