“We have the technology, finally, that for the first time in human history allows people to really maintain rich connections with much larger numbers of people.” – Pierre Omidyar

Digital marketing services have become increasingly popular in the past few years. As appealing as it sounds, businesses are still sceptical about its efficacy, especially the old brick-and-mortar business. But that hasn’t stopped new brands from making way for themselves with a digital marketing strategy behind them. While the older companies struggle for reaching new heights of success, the newer ones have no problem multiplying their sales. It is a baffling strategy that has transcended the traditional marketing mechanisms. The digital marketers in highlight today, Mr. Pankaj Goswami and Mr. Ankit Singh, reveal why digital marketing is the most rewarding strategy to scale up brands.

Mr. Pankaj Goswami is a devout practitioner of digital marketing services to help brands rise to the surface. He has collaborated with numerous small-scale startups and assisted them to add a significant chunk of sales and revenue. He explains, “Being oblivious about digital marketing is like sabotaging your business from the root. Traditional marketing channels are costly. So costly that small brands cannot even imagine putting their limited funds on them. With no other viable option in sight, I suggest most clients integrate digital marketing into their marketing strategies. You cannot expect to hand out flyers and boost the sales of a business. There is intense competition in the market, whatever niche you try to adopt. With such an intense tussle for outreach and presence, digital marketing comes to your rescue with all the necessary ingredients you need for success. I have built many small-scale brands from the ground up, and I can assure you digital marketing was the most economical solution for them.”

Ankit Singh and Pankaj Goswami are Google certified blogger and digital marketer without any prior training. Both are also expert in Google Analytics, Facebook ads, SEO & website traffic management.  Due to their dedication to work, they are generation 30 Million FB traffic 14 million Instagram traffic approx.

Mr. Ankit Singh has more tricks up his sleeve when it comes to digital marketing strategies. He is an experienced blogger who has run numerous successful blogs pertaining to education, technology, and lifestyle in the past. All of those blogs were monetized and now act as a passive income for him. He hasn’t shed the inclination for blogging but now tries to balance his time between digital marketing and blogging. He has firm thoughts on the success behind digital marketing. He says, “businesses perceive digital marketing as a sheer form of advertisement whereas it is much more than that. The level of engagement and relationships that digital marketing can cultivate is far beyond any other means of communication. Advertisements employing celebrities are a great tactic, but it is inky relevant for brands with an existing consumer base. For small-scale businesses or upcoming brands, it is an uphill task to connect with their audience. Let’s take Pepsi as an example. It is an already established brand that doesn’t need to go the extra mile to convince its consumers. However, for a new beverage brand, first of all, they have to find their audience and convince them about using their product.”

He further adds, “If you advertise on traditional media like TV, radio, billboards, etc., the engagement rate is immeasurable. However, digital marketing is quite the opposite. We have clear stats on what demographic to target and measure the response rate of our audience. Digital marketing is a subtle way to market your product rather than bombarding all the population with meaningless advertisements. It is more than just advertising, and it strives to build a bond with the consumers, learn about their problems and improve their flaws. “

Pranjal Singh, a renowned film director from Bollywood has made a good name in the industry till now. Pranjal has made several National and International award-winning films. We got an opportunity to have a chat with Pranjal.

Were you the first bencher or backbencher in school days?

During School days I always tried to get a seat on the last bench. But most of the time I got 2nd last or third last seat. It was a competition with my friends to sit on the last bench. I have never sat on the first bench in my entire life. I was very much scared by mathematics. One thing I have been doing since my school days is I have never justified myself. Because I was loyal to myself. I used to think that if I am right then by no means I will justify myself, irrespective of what others think.

You have made several films on social issues. Which is one of the main issues you think worries you the most?

I’ve made several films about various social issues, such as tree conservation, water conservation, education, democracy, female molestation, to name a few. To date, every film I’ve made has dealt with extremely sensitive topics. Zindagi Ek Lamha is the film that I would prefer if I had to choose only one film that is closed to my heart. This film depicts how elderly people are ignored/neglected by both their children, youngsters, and society. The types of issues they face in old age homes once they get old are being ignored by everyone. It’s a film that will open people’s eyes about society and the children who abandon their parents during tough times.

It’s a bit personal, but how is your relationship with your parents? What was their first reaction when you told them you want to go into the film industry, and how did they react to it?

My relationship with my parents is very good. I was not confident enough that I would even pass my secondary exam or not. But my father always encouraged me and showed faith in me. And today in my family I am the most educated human being. As a father, he always wanted to see me working in the government sector as every Indian dad. But as a friend, he never discouraged me or felt guilty, when I was making films. He played both roles perfectly well in real life and whatever I have achieved to date, the credit goes to Father & Mother with their blessings.

Tell us about your struggle. Being an outsider it’s very difficult to survive and make a good name in the film industry. Did the outsider tag ever worry you?

There was a struggle, there is a struggle, and there will be a struggle until the last breath. If you accomplish anything without a struggle, you would not feel satisfied from the inside. I’ve been through the struggle before, and I’m going through it again today. It’s difficult to live here as an outsider. If I set my mind to accomplishing something, I will do everything in my power to make it happen. I am stubborn. I love doing work. I hate sitting free and doing nothing. During the night time also when I go to sleep I think if I can use this time to do some productive work.

Who is your dream actor whom you want to work within your film?

Currently, my dream actor is Shahrukh Khan. Earlier it was Irrfan khan. We had discussed one project which we would start in 2021, one film. But I am unfortunate that I was not able to work with him. I am now looking forward to working with Shahrukh Khan and also with Amitabh Bacchan.

What are your thoughts on nepotism?

One thing you first need to accept is Nepotism is everywhere. It’s not just limited to the film industry. You can see it in politics, the private sector, government sector & everywhere in the family also. If a father/mother is trying to help in his/her child’s career then will you call it nepotism? For me, the definition of nepotism is to kill someone else’s rights and give them to someone who does not deserve it. Like if a doctor wants to make his son a doctor, then you can’t say it’s wrong. This same rule follows for an actor and politicians also. But as I mentioned, if you kill someone else’s rights and give them to someone who does not deserve it then it’s wrong.

We have heard that you got several death threats, calls from goons, how you deal with it?

In my life I got many, I have always said to them the cost for one bullet is just 80 Rupees. Bullets are not having a name mentioned for whom it is. You can shoot me if you think I did any sort of crime. I will not stop making the right films. During the initial days, I was a bit scared but I thought I will not compromise with my work. I want to portray the clear-cut image of society that is my job, then I should not fear anyone. I tried to tell them my intention is not wrong. Whatever I am doing is the reality and you have to accept it. Some of them understood some not.

Well, Bihar is the hub of politics. And not asking you questions related to politics will be like disrespecting you not as a director but as a civilian who belongs to Bihar. How do you see the current situation of the country and Bihar?

Around 30-40 years back Bihar was having a great number of Raw materials. It was transporting it to several other states in India. But they were not importing anything from states. And once Jharkhand was formed then most of the industries shifted to their side. People of Bihar trapped themselves in religion-based politics and not in development-based politics. And the downfall of Bihar started in the mid-’90s. Bihar needs to work on literacy rate and employability. We have seen most IAS/IPS/IRS officers are from Bihar. But due to lack of resources, they never come back and migrate from Bihar. So the government must look to bring some industries and also to provide quality education to Bihar children. Bihar is one of the great states & really can do many things because it’s a growing state & I want to do many many things for the state, and many things are in pipeline.

Being one of the biggest film industries, Bollywood is not able to win an Oscar award. Do you think Oscar is overrated or Bollywood not able to produce Oscar-level films? Where do you think Bollywood is lagging?

Definitely not. You can’t say Bollywood is lagging. Bollywood is having great potential. The problem is, films that are made in Bollywood are made from a marketing point of view. In Bollywood, a film can survive only when it’s having great melodious songs, fight scenes, exceptional locations, and a big star cast. In the end, the main intention is to get the revenues. In India we have never seen cinema as an art, we make commercial films. The value of stories is a bit less and stars’ value is greater. It’s about the taste of the audience.

You are a good motivator and a great speaker. You have also given speeches in various Universities like Delhi University, Mumbai University, Jain (Deemed to be University), Symbiosis Institute of Technology, Amity University & Many More. How was your experience?

Great experience. I have also worked as a mentor and as a professor in various universities. I always thought that one day I will teach students who are in the media sector and management colleges. I want them to know what is happening in the actual industry. And my motive is to provide accurate knowledge of light, cameras, media, print, etc to the students. And as far as I know, I have worked with 23 colleges/institutes & universities. And I want to specially mention, during this pandemic I worked as a full-time teacher for around 10 months in one college. Students of this college were not able to receive a quality education. Along with this, the teachers were also facing several issues. Teachers were cheated for their salaries. The salary printed on the appointment letter and that was given in hand was having a huge difference. Salaries were not paid on time. They used to deduct money without any reason. This university was run with the support of one private company. The faculty were frustrated that too in covid pandemic time. Faculties were not provided with PF, Medical insurance, and various other facilities. Most of the faculty left the job in 10 days, 20 days, 50 days. And when I researched about this and I found this thing has been happening for the past 4-5 years. Ever since these private sector companies are involved in the education field, we have lost quality in education. I would like to request trusts, universities, to not do wrong with the future of students and faculties, else our nation will go back many years & will also request never connect with private consultancy in educations

What are your future plans in terms of films and for society?

After my past experience, I have decided to open a non-profit institute. This institute will provide a free or minimal amount of education to children belonging to poor families. I think “learning today is living tomorrow” should be the motto of our society.

And coming to films, I am looking forward to giving new technology to the film industry. I am working on a gaming film. Like if you are watching any film, let’s say Dabbang, and you want Shahrukh Khan in place of Salman Khan, then through this technology, you can change the actor. This will not take place as animation, it will take place realistically. & In the coming days, Immersive technologies will be used in this. We will be providing this technology to Nalanda university free of cost, the motto will tell the world about the history & the first resident university of India, Bihar, Nalanda, which functioned between the 5th and 13th centuries.

Can you picture artistic commercials when you think about graphic designing? Websites with attention-getting graphics? Beautifully laid-out spreads in magazines? It is because a designer knows that allowing oneself to make mistakes is part of creativity, knowing which ones to keep is part of the design. Hailing from Karnataka, Prathik Jain, is one such graphic designer who has set many world records with his incredible designing skills. 

Skill is the unified power of experience, intellect, and passion which Prathik has proved by creating a world record of ‘Most Number of Graphical Pictures’ on his Vespa scooter in just 2 hours which became India’s first graphical scooter. 

He travelled approximately 160 kilometres on his scooter from Tumkur to Bangalore for this modification. He was awarded the Limca Book of Records and the High Range Book of Records after completing the makeover.

Talking about interest in designing, he said “I believe that one of the most enjoyable aspects of becoming a graphic designer is being able to create something unique, images that have never been seen before. And the only way to do that is to stop doing what society tells you is fine. There is no such thing as nice. What’s good is what gets the job done.”

Not just he is an expert in designing but has an upper hand in software designing also. In just 12 hrs 51 min, he has developed 36 websites which is a record in itself. Limca Book of Records, High Range Book of Records, Unique World Records, Assist World Records, and Miracle World Records has all recognized Prathik Jain and his team.

Inspiring a lot of people, he tried his hands in business and started his own venture ‘Manueal,’ (www.manueal.com) Indian based men’s grooming company.

“Stop dreaming and start doing if you feel like there’s something you’re meant to be doing and you have a passion for it,” Prathik believes, making him special in his profession.

Success stories of people who do everything on their own are always Inspiring. As a child, Vineet Maheshwari was always fascinated with the business world. He always dreamed of having his own company, being his own boss, and giving the best life for his parents and himself. All his dream came true finally as he is the owner of one of the best digital marketing companies in India.

Vineet, a simple boy from the small town of Kutch has seen his parents work hard to provide him education and the best life. He decided at that tender age that he wants to grow up and do something of his own so that he doesn’t have to be dependent on anyone for himself, his parents, and his own kids one day. But he knew that it’s not easy to be your own boss as that requires lots of dedication, persistence, and Hardwork.

After finishing his education, Vineet Maheshwari didn’t immediately start his business. He was smart enough to understand that he has to learn more about digital marketing and understand work culture. So he worked as a Search Engine Executive with an IT company. While his job was a great deal, Vineet also self-studied a lot to understand the digital world deeply.

His self-study helped him understand how diverse digital marketing is, and not just limited to SEO. So he decided to excel in every area so that when he starts his own venture, he would be able to provide any service that his clients would ask. Well, that’s exactly what happened. Today, Entrepreneur and digital marketing expert Vineet Maheshwari is known for his top clients, superlative services, and creative team.

To reach this stature in his life, Vineet Maheshwari has dealt with many hardships. But he never gave up on his childhood dream of becoming a business owner. He believes that anyone who is open to how vast the journey of entrepreneurship is, with failure being a part of it, will achieve their goals one day.

This Business Magnate has a problem. He shares more with others and keeps much less for him. Being a successful business tycoon by building a bustling empire, the real story of success simultaneously speaks volumes of a true human being for being a philanthropist and above all a Good Samaritan. These traits are rarest of rare in an individual who is a bona fide victor in true letter and spirit. He is none other than the outstanding and self-reliant entrepreneur Mahimananda Mishra- Managing Director (MD) and Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Orissa Stevedores Limited (OSL).

Mahima Mishra, as he is fondly addressed across the state is a first-generation entrepreneur with a golden heart. The OSL Group is one of the largest Corporate Houses across the East Coast of India. It is well-renowned not only for its welfare measures, hospitality and ensuring security for its employees but also for the poor and underprivileged people in Odisha.

Mr Mishra, ensured that the Paradeep Port stand firm on its feet when it was hit hard by the worst ever cyclone in 1999. 10,000 lives were lost, lots of damages were caused to the property & the Paradeep Port was shattered to a large extent. At this crucial juncture, Mr Mishra undertook numerous restoration measures to recover the damages.

In case of any calamity being faced by Odisha, OSL Group takes the lead in extending its support for the hapless people, be it in Jagatsinghpur or Ganjam, Mr.Mishra has always stood by them with open support. Mahimananda Mishra, his god-gifted hands to the people’s welfare during the natural calamity by providing clothes, food, temporary electricity and water.

As the main priority of the OSL group is to ensure the employee’s safety, health, education, security & environment, Mr Mishra also promoted cleanliness of the surrounding, now too under the Swachh Bharat Abhiyan, promoted plantation of trees and organized blood donation camps.

Despite being a stockiest and a homebred entrepreneur, he religiously relies on humanitarian virtues. Stevedoring, being the ace activity, the OSL group handles 35 million ton of cargo in various sectors.

Mr Mishra, the Managing Director (MD) of Orissa Stevedores Limited (OSL) one of the largest corporate houses across the East Coast of India has reached out to the marginalized sections by means of his noble initiatives in a bid to handle the pandemic crisis efficiently.

The OSL group has provided the employees more than 5000 Plus PPE kits, various multivitamin supplements, immunity-boosting pills, distribution of foods and refreshments during the nightmarish lockdown. Apart from the generous gesture, magnanimous Mahima Mishra readily collaborated with a private healthcare facility for the pandemic-affected employees.

Such sympathetic effort of a business tycoon-cum-first generation entrepreneur, Mahima Mishra is a testimony that humanity still rules the roost over the present mundane world replete with inhuman and insensible vices.

Besides, the OSL group has undertaken necessary precautions and strict observance of the COVID-19 guidelines in the office premises. In case an employee tests positive after being infected with the highly contagious Coronavirus, all the co-workers mandatorily undergo the prescribed RT-PCR test and are compensated by the organization.

In addition, the entire OSL headquarters and the branch offices are regularly sanitized covering every nook and corner of the office. Masks has been made mandatory for both the office staff and labour force while thermal screening is being religiously carried before entering the premises. It has already been finalized that the vaccine will be administered to the OSL employees, their family members and the entire contingent for free of cost.

Pertinent to note that, the OSL employees have neither been divested of their jobs nor have suffered any salary cuts unlike the lots of organizations during the lockdown. Under the sensible stewardship of a magnanimous magnate like Mahima Mishra, all the employees are safe and sound.
Mr Mishra’s right policies and visions as well as his preventive measures have infused a great sigh of relief to the needy and thus reinstate the faith of millions in his entirely altruistic act.
