I am a first-generation entrepreneur. When I was planning
the venture, my father advised me to start small. He cautioned
against taking loans that would take many years to repay.
His strategy was to earn and invest the profits to expand
the business. I followed his advice.
My first salon was the verandah of my own house. I borrowed
only Rs 35,000 from my father for setting it up. For advertising,
I relied on word of mouth. Later, my clinic became the outlet
for my products. In fact, I built my range of products based
on customer feedback.
