The To do list

The to do list for small businesses

An entrepreneuer has different roles to play, this is a known fact and folks who choose this path are aware of the same.  A decade back  if you are good at what you are, you get known and accepted, and you had to focus on just getting better. These days besides being good at your line of work you have to be a good writer, phtographer, accountant, brand manager, website developer etc.

The to do list of an average day is something like this - 

Click amazing pictures for your social media promotions

Think of amazing content for your blog

Add fresh pages to your website

Tally accounts and get all the billing done

Prepare presentations for your sales meetings

Design new products for promotions

Keep up with the operations and make sure guests are satisfied

Address griviances 

Manage finaces 

The list keeps growing, if you are working in a small team like we do all the above tasks happen back to back within hours. That is what keeps it interesting as well as exciting but how can we be good at all the different roles at the same time. The times require you to be the best in everything, your growth depends not just on how good you are at managing the core of your business but also at branding, promoting, selling, accounting etc. 

Technology has democrotised all sectors where you can write, promote and convey your thougths and ideas to a large audience but it also requires you to be the best at everything after all just being good at your line of work is not good enough anymore and you need to be good in the whole package. This is what we are also trying for and hopefully we will get better as well.

All said and done never a dull day in an entrepreneuer's life. There might be many sad, fustrating and dejecting days but never a dull one.

An Attack on the idea of India

  To go for a holiday, families traveling together is a celebration. A celebration of coming together of hardworking families to explore different cultures, cuisines and landscapes. Schedules are planned, leave applications submitted, shopping lists prepared and bookings made in advance. The anticipation builds up to the date of travel and there is pure joy as the holiday begins. You can witness this joy at any airport or railway station. The many flashing cameras document each part of the experience all to come together in the many reels.  In India we are spoiled with the choices of destinations for holidays. The diversity in culture, cuisine and landscape is a very wide spectrum from the Himalayas to the coasts of Peninsular India, the history of each region distinct with many options for a memorable family holiday.  The domestic tourism industry in India is robust, a growing economy is fueling the aspirations of millions to take a well deserved break and go for a holid...

Tourism planning and policy

It is not a good feeling when we know we are much more capable, have a lot more potential and yet are not achieving our best due to various reasons, all we need is a stronger collective will, which we seem to lack as a country. Tourism is a major engine of economic growth. Several countries have transformed their economies using their tourism potential to the fullest. Our great country is as fascinating as it gets for the world traveller. The diversity of landscape, language, cuisine, music, cultures, climates, religion etc is just astounding. India would be a country hard to miss for the discerning traveller, yet we are not even close to achieve our full potential in the tourism market. Our market share compared to many other developed countries are miniscule. Yes, we have made progress and we continue to do so every year and day but there is a long way ahead before we match the world leaders in tourist arrivals and growth. This even though the product we have to offer in terms...
