Everything Started From SCRATCH
According to her, it was the year 2018 when she started operations with a few team members. But then, things were not as simple as that. The reason was that the car rental market was already saturated because there were lots of brands there with a strong reach and powerful network. In such a scenario, stepping into such a business was nothing less than a risky job.
On the note of struggles and challenges, she said in the beginning, it was quite stressful for her to manage all activities, especially those that involve high stakes, and in such a scenario, when the team wasn't as big as it should be, and on top of that, they were facing manpower issues. According to her, tough times and hardships appear only to make someone STRONGER. Now it's up to him whether he gets scared and broken. For some people, it may be a SITUATION, but there may be a few people more who still perceive it as an OPPORTUNITY. As a team, they analyzed their core strengths and weaknesses and worked consistently with determination and perseverance. Finally, the results are evident: they have become a well-known cab service provider in India.
