 His journey and challenges

Talking about the conception of PR Solution (PRS) International, he explained that he was 20 when he founded the company. .

“I started my company from home. I knew it was going to be a challenge but I had the determination to succeed and built multiple successful businesses.   I had no experience and no collateral.  I faced problems in recruitment and I had a huge credibility challenge everywhere” With time, he managed to find the right set of people who helped him to build and scale his business.

Finding business opportunities in IT

Our Press Conference portal solution is ideal for organizations that are mature when it comes to adopting technology. The Press Conference Portal has become a game changer. It is enabling adoption of advanced technologies and paving the way for transformation such as we have never seen before

Rapid evolution in high speed internet connectivity and penetration of smart phones among the dynamic and young population has created a fertile ground for new businesses. And for young India, this ecosystem is rife with opportunities for entrepreneurs.

The key is to be smart – keep your resources aligned with your business objectives and make the most of it. Confidence plays a big role in becoming an entrepreneur. The more knowledge and experience you gain in your field of expertise, the more confident you will become.

Entrepreneurship is not a one man’s job. You need to find the right kind of people who believe in you and are willing to work towards your goals and mission. A team is the backbone of an organization. A well-balanced team can bring your business targets within reach. Since building a team will require a lot of time and effort, it is advisable to start building at the beginning of your journey.

Digital was the only channel where I could clearly demonstrate ROI to clients

Operating in a segment where competition is as huge as the market demand, the PRS International CEO says, “The key is to differentiate and add value to the customer. We often compete with larger organizations, but being agile and quick gives us an advantage.  I think the ownership and innovation we bring to projects as a collaborative platform to create value differentiates us.”

PRS International currently works with SMEs, startups and enterprises helping them in press conferences and digital transformation journeys, while steadily moving towards its dream of becoming a billion-dollar company.

Competition is everywhere you look. As entrepreneurs, we have to know and understand our competition so our business stays relevant. But as the driver of the company, we must not get overwhelmed with thoughts of overtaking them. Waking up every day worried about what could happen prevents us from being present in our own business.

As an entrepreneur, our many successes may seem ordinary to us, but extraordinary to others. Keep a journal or memory board of milestones that you have accomplished along the way. When you feel a sense of dread and fear, look at your past wins and remember that if you have done it once, you can do it again. You are the same person who handled all of those tough situations. You have only gotten stronger along the way. You started this business; remember that. You grew this business from nothing because you are resourceful. Tap into your well of resourcefulness, and keep on figuring it out.

Our organization is based on a principle – it is our primary philosophy – our ethos! – That public relations contribute to the upliftment of mankind.

Our vision is to take our philosophy to more people and aim to reach 60 countries by the end of 2020. Thus, becoming the world’s first group to offer a one-stop solution for all press conferences needs.

The vision of leveraging our key philosophy – of comprehensive benefit to society, alongside the integration of our high-quality portfolio – will undoubtedly help in the achievement of success in the future.

Started from scratch and have fought tooth and nail to bring my brainchild into realization. I have left the security and easy comforts behind in order to live my imaginings out every day no matter how steep the compromise.

Without rejection, there can be no growth. Comprehend that your product or service might not be for everyone and that’s okay. Rejection gives you the chance to consider reviewing ways to improve what you have to offer. Don’t take it personally. Anticipate rejection, learn from it and move on.

Every journey is different and so the challenges will also differ. It is not a ‘one-size-fits-all’ situation, but the overall mantra should be dedication and passion.
